 Re: Whole Collection Shots
The Moog wrote: one day i will get off my arse and buy some nice display cases . . . until then, toys are slowly taking over my man-cave like the creeping red weed  I don't know, I kinda like this set up. Ha, though I can imagine how careful you must have to be getting to ... well,.. most of these guys. Still, and I think you hit it on the head w' the "creeping red weed" reference, the organic quality of what it's become is kinda comforting. Maybe cause it does bring back those childhood memories Moody Doom mentioned, or because it reminds me of those stores so packed to the gills w' old games & toys that you'd be buried if the aisles (or walls of stuff) collapsed. Ha, I remember my eyes starting to hurt, having to search every centimeter, for chance I'd miss the Perfect toy.  Display cases are indeed fancy and great for "archival" qualities, and I plan to go that route myself (eventually)... I don't know, maybe my affinity for your collection comes from that "refusal to grow up" place inside us toy collectors... Ha, but anyway, man, before I write a paper on it  , love the collection & setup, Moog. I give it 2 thumbs up.

 Re: Whole Collection Shots
Not sure if you're interested in owning these, MoodyDoom, but Guf just put up a New Sales thread & he still happens to have these same 2 Hideshi Hino characters available (maybe not same version tho). Here : http://www.skullbrain.org/bb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=46378.

 Re: Whole Collection Shots
the stuff i collect might not interest everyone here, but here are some shots. there are toys hiding all over the place, around my bookshelves, record cabinet, drawing table, etc, but these are the key shelves. i love to collect mostly off-brand, knockoff, obscure or nameless monster and alien toys from the 60s-90s. i also love vintage plastic banks, bendy monsters, vintage dinosaurs, 70s muppet stuff, US released kaiju knockoffs, Madballs knockoffs, Robocon and related series, and basically anything weird, colorful, and silly. sorry for the crappy photo skills, try to enjoy it anyway!

 Re: Whole Collection Shots
Cool collection, muckmonster! It brings back so many memories. Ha, I'd love to have a good bit of these  Some of the obscure ones were the best too. I found an old Ugg Family toy of mine the other day - a yellow / green guy w' a few red bumps on his head. Oh, you have it too. So Is that the whole set, and are the "Gremlin Creatures" & "Outer Terrestrial Creatures" related to the Uggs? Glad you shared it, man!

the Ugg Family figure you're talking about is named Mooky. Ugg Family, Outer Terrestrial Creatures, Lil Gremlin Creatures, and Fuzzy Wuzzies (the only packaging name variation i don't have that i know about) are all the same series, just repacked and sold in different years. there are 6 characters, each having 2 color variations. they were sold in 1, 3 and 6 packs. one of my favorite toy lines ever!

 Re: Whole Collection Shots
Those shelves are chock full of goodness Muckmonster! I spotted a number of things I have like the timmee space figure and the Marty Toys Outer terrestrials; and a whole lot I'd love to own as well. Thanks for sharing the collection.

 Re: Whole Collection Shots
I had some of those Ugg Family toys. I forgot all about them. I would like to find a couple. Great collection. I really like the Sho-Biz 45's on the wall!

 Re: Whole Collection Shots
Don't see Another World toys all that often - great collection Muckmonster. I recently packed all my old Another World (at least that's what they were called here in Ausland) up for storage. One day I'll get the space for them again.

Consider myself enlightened Well cool, if I decide to collect the lot, I've got 11 to go then. Thank You so much for all of the Mooky information, muckmonster. Ha, and I'm also going to save your collection for "toys to find" referencing

 Re: Whole Collection Shots
Muck used to post on an action figure forum I used to go to back when I was collecting a lot of vintage American stuff, his shelf shots always deliver an eyeful. I love collections of weirdo obscure stuff, always nice to see things I've never seen.

Please anyone have any other info on that?
