    Star Wars Black Series

    Always had a thing for the Scout Troopers too. Don't know if it's the helmet, the added black details, the cool speeders, the added agility, or what.

    These days, you never know. I don't think there was ever a time I thought a Black Series Rancor wouldn't fund. I think a lot of it came down to pricing and what was included. If Todd was a little more greedy and priced the figure up a bit more, I don't know if she'd quite be where she's at now...

    Toy Room Display and Organization Ideas

    I actually started doing that a few months back, and I love it. Works way better than any wipes or anything, and no chance of leaving any sticky residue. Especially for some of the more high-end stuff- Hot Toys, statues, etc., it's my go-to. My main hassle is just taking everything off to dust...

    Don't wanna jinx anything, but it does feel like a relatively safe bet that Harley will end up funding. She's at 55.6% of the goal in a day and a half. Obviously I don't expect that same momentum to persist throughout the month, but still, even if it's a steady stream per day, it feels likely...

    U.S. Politics

    Anyone still got a guillotine lying around somewhere? It worked for the people before, after their ruler incited a civil war, why not this time? Not even saying we gotta use it, just to stand ominously outside their windows at night like a spooky John Cusack.

    Apparently they've been having some trouble. McFarlane even posted on their social media that pledges are taking a bit longer to go through than normal because of the high traffic volume. I'd say keep checking back- check your history, check your bank account, etc. Otherwise, can't hurt to send...

    "Looks like dicks are back on the menu, boys!" or whatever that one orc said.

    Animated colors was my first thought as well. That trenchcoat look for him, I'd argue, is almost as iconic as just the plain purple garb. As much as I do expect Todd to pull some shenanigans with Nicholson Joker, I also think he knows there's enough demand that, even if he does want to promote...

    I've heard the canned air works wonders, I just always forget about it. I've tried air purifiers before, but they never seem to work (though, to be fair, I usually go for cheaper models so I can have more money for toys 😅 ) I've mostly just been doing the dusting wand thing, some Lysol wipes...

    Don't honestly know, but I don't believe so. I think it's just an homage to her comic outfit/colors, but on the Robbie sculpt. But like you said, the skin isn't skin colored, so it feels a little strange. Were it not for the softgoods fishnets, I'd say it may be an easy enough custom to just...

    Dusting truly is the worst, though. Takes all day, one wrong move and everything goes toppling off the shelf. You'd think that, with all the technology we have nowadays, we could make some sort of self-dusting shelf. Don't know how it would work, but let's all go in on it together and split the...

    I enjoy it as a guilty pleasure movie. Is it good? Ehhhh. Not really, especially when compared to Gunn's Suicide Squad. But it's a cheesy, flashy, colorful Frankenstein monster of a movie. I'd definitely have preferred either the shirtless Joker or purple pimp Joker, but I get that the tux is...

    Selling Toys - Horror Stories & "Happy" Customers

    Not exactly a customer, but I had someone today send a message about some Nightmare Before Christmas popcorn buckets I'm trying to sell. They asked if I have a lot of Halloween stuff for sale, because if not, they have a bunch of stuff they need gone, and I can sell it for them. I wasn't gonna...

    Quitting/putting collecting on pause

    So nice that you have that! My Mom is similar. I almost can't tell her the things I'm looking for anymore, because more often than not I'll either find that thing sitting on my doorstep one day, or mysteriously find the exact amount in my bank account. Bless her heart, she's always tried her...

    Harley Drawing Board Here ya go, friend! Sometimes I have to refresh the page a time or two before it'll actually load, though. So keep trying.

    Really makes you wonder how they come up with the pricing at all. Base Harley is arguably a collector's edition figure, give or take (just a poster and tattoos in place of extra hands, etc.), but is less expensive than them, even factoring in likeness rights.

    Quitting/putting collecting on pause

    I'm very lucky in that my Mom has always accepted my nerd tendencies and supports my collecting. She's even said that seeing my joy convinced her to start collecting a lot of the things she likes herself. My boyfriend's Mom is the opposite, though. Don't get me wrong- she's a lovely person, but...

    Seems like Harley is off to a good start. Page doesn't load for me every time, but last I checked, 58 backers, with over $5,000 raised- a little over 2% of the goal- in less than 10 minutes. Most folks seem to be going for the highest tier. We'll see if it's able to sustain that momentum. Lower...

    Looks like pricing is up for the Drawing Board Harley- $30 for the base figure, $35 for tier 2, $50 for Joker and Harley, and $70 for all. Goal is $250,000. Not too bad, all things considered. I was expecting worse. $50 for Joker and Harley ain't bad, since Harley herself is $30. I may actually...

    I was thinking that too- it's not quiiiite 100%, but I definitely know who it is. I think my BOTH set skews a little better than the single release, and certain angles do look better than others. I also think that, since he's a character who has so many big emotions, seeing him just kinda...

    Back up to 250. Ah, well. Shoulda just pulled the trigger at 145, but hopefully, since it dropped that low once, it'll do it again. Or I'll just snag Joker loose somewhere and be done with it

    The Relationship Overshare Thread

    My social cues used to be terrible too. Still are, to an extent. When people wanted to sleep with me, I didn't have the confidence to realize it. When I got the confidence, it was during a time when nobody wanted to sleep with me. I think part of that came from growing up in a part of the...

    So then which character is gonna spend the entire movie on an island, only to come in for the last scene and get cut off before they can say anything? 😂
