Love the A-Team old figures, I still have my loose BA I picked up back in the day and often find myself looking at the 3.75 figures. One day I know I'll put a set together but for now I'll just enjoy looking at everyone else collections.

Great haul.

All I have left is my BA torso from the 4in figure which came with the van. I can't find the removable roof though. And I found faces head from my larger figures. At least I know they wer well used and treated what they wer built for :lol: :lol:

Cool :) I would love Prowl because I used to own that Transformer but they are expensive to buy. Always wanted Prime also but never owned him.
 
Collect jointly with my lad for other than SW and he is collecting from his childhood, TMNT, MOTU, GB, THUNDERCATS, etc, also he loved this series as a kid, so couldn't resist, 1985 still tied in to the boxes from a US seller, but got done £11 on duty!

Nice find.

Thought I'd bring my Transformers together for a photocall before I sell them (or at least some of them). I don't collect them I'm just lucky enough to have these from when I was a kid. But I have a Star Wars habit to feed and a possible house move coming up so now feels like a good time...

Now THAT is the nuts. Never knew there were that many. Sucks you have to sell.

I just remembered in the nick of time. This isn't a Halloween display - it's merely my two non-SW modern shelves but the emphasis is on horror. My pics aren't great due to MS shakey hand. I'm always meaning to take showcase-y pics when I'm not knackered. One day I'll showcase my original poster collection too, of which most is horror, but that's for another day. I did your mind-trick of putting a vintage item in there, real sneakily.

love the jaws and snake blissken figs the dino jelly puppets and snake take me back were they finger puppets :) nice collection
 
Thanks bosk.

And now a vintage toy collection of a different kind. I acquired four off-air episodes of Tiswas that all had the adverts in. Being from the latter part of the year, it's nearly all vintage toys. I've edited them together and put the four batches into a playlist.

Half an hour of British vintage toy adverts, with no duplicates, from 1979 to 1981, anyone?

Great horror display and just in time for Halloween! We have a fair few similar items and love the Halloween 3 mask, 'no more days to Halloween'.

Looking forward to the poster collection at some point, some of those old horror posters are amazing and something I wish I had.

:D

I was reading Mike Myers mask is actually a copy of Captain Kirk's ! Any of you guys hear of this before or is that old news?

Yeah the mask in the original film was a Kirk mask painted white and poked about a bit.

I've just finished reading a massive book on Don Post Studios, the company that made the Kirk mask back in the day. It seems that there are two stories with the Halloween mask, one being that the production designer on the film set modified the Kirk mask a bit and spayed it white and another being that Don Post Studios were approached to make up a couple of them. It looks like this ended up going to court at some point as ironically Don Post wasn't given the license to sell the mask (although the lawsuit was to do with Don Post Studios and another mask making company)?!
All very strange and they ended up making a mask that looked just like it but was simply called 'The Mask'. Eventually they did get the licence to make it and also the Rob Zombie version of it based on his remake.

All very strange and all for the love of the Shat!
