Paging @JamesRobot with the latest one If I ever come around your area I know what we're doing haha. I've heard good things about Blood Diner but still haven't gotten around to watching it. Great to see that Chopping Mall is number 1 in the Vestron collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reed Rothchild | 9,514 Editorials Team · Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Since I just noticed a Netflix show is coming out, here is my Usagi Yojimbi collection. I'm not really into comics, but Usagi is one of the few I got into as a kid thanks to my library 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeatherRebel5150 | 1,056 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Since the release of Transformers: War for Cybertron, Hasbro has been re-releasing classic figures including my favorite version if Transformers, Beast Wars. I loved the show as a kid and had a bunch of the figures. So Ive been going nuts collecting these Beast Wars action figures. They started out releasing new, more accurate versions of the figures, but now they’ve gotten into releasing full on reproductions of the original 90’s figures, packaging and all. Its a dream come true. Hasbro has started re-releasing some of the non-show characters as well like Cybershark. Im hoping they go all the way with it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skorp | 383 Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Van's slip on shoes. Currently have 135 different pairs and a few doubles on some that are soon have to be thrown away. However, I wear most of them since they are meant to be worn after all! Only a few like the original Metallica and Super Mario Bros. I keep as never worn/new. Also collect fossils, meteorites, and dinosaur eggs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I have like 60 pairs of different models, old skools, authentics and slips are my go to and only models I don't like are the ones with the small toe boxes like the aves and ultra range.

Tabonga | 2,315 Posted June 15, 2022 Author Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) Here is a picture of the 66 Mustang that my sister bought new. A friend of one of my brothers bought it (it was in pretty sad shape) and is now in the process of restoring. I drove it quite a bit - pretty fun car to tool around in.

360collector | 289 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Thats a nice looking Mustang, I would love to get a classic car, but I want to have my own garage for it and not pay for storage. I collect vinyl and coins mainly besides games. I have collections of football shirts, pokemon cards, hot wheels/diecast and books. These collections grow randomly depending on what I find/want. Im a little into cigars but I smoke em up so not much of a maintained collection but the humidor got a few. I have managed to stay away from watch collecting but its hard. I should add I have sold off my massive funko pop and amiibo collections because of space issues lol. Overall I just collect thing I find cool or interesting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a bit of a wait and after ordering I went back out and got in the car. As I was putting the key in the ignition I realized there was some stuff in the passenger seat I did not recognize. It was another Mustang the same blue and the keys I had fit (they didn't make that many key patterns) it. Pretty strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynda Monica | 350 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) Sometimes there's a marketing tie in so disgusting that it becomes hilarious. The best ones that make me want to preserve their shame forever are the ones where there's NO connection between the tie in and the product, making them look perfectly idiotic together. Behold! I like to think that at one point Buzz was holding a spoon in the picture, and they took it out because it wouldn't be fair to every other cereal box for having the funniest cover of all time. This was the first one I saved for its lunacy, and from that point on I started to keep an eye out. Oral-B's iconic toothbrush mascot was the second one I found, and I had a hard time bringing it up to the cashier with a straight face. I think this is the funniest one, as it's the biggest contrast between tie-in and product. I guess it's true that Darth Vader needed some dental care in his old age. Master Chief on a Pringles can isn't all that funny on the surface, but the hilarious shame of the tie-in becomes clear when you realize the tie-in was done because junk food companies see video game fans as their target audience. The fact that Tim Hortons allowed this tie-in to exist is a shame that needs to be preserved. Justin Bieber is an irredeemable little twerp, and to have his last name replace Tim Horton's last name as if he's just as important to Canada's culture, is probably the most shameful tie-in I've ever seen in my life. I still ate all the incredibly delicious sugar coated Timbits, but I was a bit less happy about it than normal. I'm always on the look out, but I wish with every fiber of my being that I could go back in time and buy the ridiculous pack of Duracell AA batteries I saw in the 2000s with Shrek and Donkey on them.

It took me a long moment to stop laughing at the Oral-B coupled with Vader's image and steer my eyes over to the actual product to see that it's a light-saber to make tooth-brushing cool again. Also, Emperor had a lot of visible crowns in Jedi, if memory serves. Just the thought of it now keeps setting me off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choose Your Own Adventure books? If you've never read one, you should pick a few up on ebay. For those of you not familiar with them, you read a few pages, then it offers you a choice. Depending on the choice you make it'll send you to a different page in the book. Does that several times, and then you'll reach an ending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
