The "What You Got In The Mail That Isn't A Vinyl Toy" Thread

So jealous, Nobunny rules!

 

Hmm lurker I just saw this in the thread and got so excited I ordered it from Amazon! Love old school horror comics (as well as older horror books- like those August Derleth compilations from the 40's like- Who Knocks?), I wanted to order the new Walking Dead Hard Cover Volume 6 so adding this gave me free shipping. Thanks for posting.

 

Hey! That looks familiar

 

wax pumpkin guy, cheap plastic candy case, & a postcard for my uncle's 50th b-day bash

 

random cheapie... possibly bootleg... Italian Gormiti

they remind me of Battle Beasts





lolz

 

Those aren't bootleg just kind of a modern rip off. There was a thread about them here at some point? I have 2 bootleg Battle Beasts, I'll try and get some bad cell shots.

 

it's possible that these particular ones are bootlegs. i got them from hong kong for cheap

 

ok, learned a little more about these figures with the square hole in the foot



apparently a small chip is supposed to go in there. on the italian playsets, these chips will allow the gormiti to talk (kinda like the simpsons playmates toys did). well, when they are empty and sold cheap on ebay, it is probably factory workers that pull them off of the assembly line before the end to sell them

so kinda bootleg, kinda not?

black market

 

new zafu/zabuton set!

 

only on skullbrain would someone seem hopeful that their product is a bootleg.

 

this is a rad halloween-ish score. the post card/birthday announcement is awesome.

 

Got these sketch cards in the mail this past week.

Marvel Masterpieces by David Mack.
Marvel Heroes Vs. Villains by Andre Toma.
Star Wars Galaxy 5 die cuts by Shin from Devilrobots
Star Wars Galaxy 5 die cut of Jawas by UAMOU.

 

I'm a VOTOMS fan. I especially like a good VOTOMS toy. I think these are reissues of the older toys with some touch-ups.

 

my crazy Japanese fish food scooted through the door just in time before getting banned, I guess

 

So excited about these Have Heart albums.

 

Got this awesome inked drawing today from Jonathan Bergeron.

 

why do you get that particular food?

and i miss my saturn

 

I'd read an article earlier this year about it and it's probiotic/health-food benefits. I have thoroughly gone "all out" more on my fish than any of my other hobbies, and it was just a long wait and difficult road to actually getting the food into my hands. It's amazingly popular amongst Angelfish & Butterflyfish keepers in Japan and Singapore (worlds biggest markets on them) so I figured it's worth a try.

The Saturn was like the only console I never had, so I wound up buying one sometime around 8 years ago. Only recently started adding to it's collection again, though. Long live Saturn & Dreamcast

And in further relevance to the thread, I got in a hanging/suspended pot-rack from Amazon today.

 

Is this like a little bed you get busy on?

 

Nah, thats for smelly hippies to meditate on.

 

Another mail day with a bunch of cool cards.

Signature cards, signed by: Le Merde, Mori Katsura of Real Head, and Chanmen of Gargamel.


Sketch cards by (from left to right): Chanmen of Gargamel, Mori Katsura of Real Head, Le Merde, Koji Harmon (Cometdebris), Shin from Devilrobots, and Aya Kakeda.

Got the green cockpit version, but all in all, the same figure...and it's not vinyl

This is tooo awesome to sink without comment! Very nice.

Love that 70's Kiss Alive I postcard too.
