Toys!

hahaha i had one of those cheap toys before as a kid. when you could swing it around and play fight with it. back then i'd really admired the fragile ones where the lightsaber actually lights up, like one of those proper
adult toyscollectible. (not adult toys but yeah) :-\ -
@Filthy25ozJunkie since you've got a Predator thing going on, I'm assuming that you've seen this picture from Shane Black's Twitter feed of the new movie's cast.
OK, it's completely off-topic, but I expect you to have a collection that includes statues of them before too long.

10 years ago I had a massive collection of Transformers (surprise), I used to spend more on them than I ever did on denim. When I got married I sold them all, and my motorcycle, and now I'm just a boring old alcoholic
-
Eh maybe not. I didn't care for the Predators movie or any of the creature designs in that one. I guess we'll see.@Graeme:

I liked the Transformer that had the cassette tapes. That one was my favorite.

Ha I did too! Mine even had the tapes as little mini transformers of their own. Like one unfolded into a mini rino if I remember right

The tapes are the only tranformers that I still have around somewhere. The panther and the bird of prey were my absolute favorites. I'll have to see if I can dig those up. My parents are in the process of downsizing and moving after 40+ years in the same house, so there's been a lot of stuff to sift through from my childhood. I will try to post up some pics of the epic lego project that's been going on their house. My mom decided that it was a great procrastination tool to avoid packing, to separate and sort all the huge boxes of legos from our collection and put together the sets for my nieces to play with.
@louisbosco there are some pretty cool curved sabers that have been made. I was always more into the custom jobs than the movie replicas, but go poke around on the fx-sabers or the custom saber shop forums if you want an idea of what's out there. If you want something for the shelf, or a wall-hanger, curved hilts look wicked, but they're really hard to actually swing around and duel with.

@sabergirl if you can find them I'll trade you something cool for them. winky face

Lookie what I got ahold of today!
He's super awesome and the crown jewel of my collection.
-
@Graeme check these out!
I like the Necronomicon, Henrietta, and possessed hand he came with too.
-
Yeah I've seen that before. I love that movie. I might watch it again tonight.

@tody he's my favorite. Planning a tattoo as soon as I can land on a free space (running out of run).
The scarf is a DFB scarf from 2018. My mum is German, and the US sucks at football, so I've always supported Germany in international comps. One of my coworkers was in Germany while the world cup was going on, and picked me up a scarf!
I think I'll be switching to supporting the US going forward though. My son just started playing (he's 4), and has such a small connection to Germany that I think supporting our home country makes more sense
