Whoa! Look at what is in this loot. I am particularly jazzed about a few items. The C3PO Pez Dispenser is great! I am doing a secret project with Pez and this fits right in! Also the Nosferatu!
I gave him a special place in the Monster Cafe display case!
I opened up the Tygra Thundercats figure...I thought these honestly would suck. OMG! They have great articulation and a good look. I hope to find the rest.
But why am I making the satisfied face? Oh man...ORIGINAL vintage Star Wars figures! Hammerhead and Walrus Man! WOW! I carried them in my pocket all day while working to look at them periodically. More than anything these brought me back to being 6 years old. I now have 5 Star Wars figures from my youth. Of course I had to explain their relevance to wifey. I never thought in a million years I would have ANY Star Wars vintage again. I just thought it wasn't in the cards for me.
THANKS SO MUCH BUZZCHUCK! Anytime you are in Saltillo....Free dinner and beers for you and your ilk! I mean it! These two figures brightened my day as none have before. I know most blogs that I read everyone ALREADY has them and probably kept theirs from when they were a kid...But not me. I have had some tragedies happen in my life. The loss of toys were a huge thing. Again thanks so much! LOVE the vintage Star Wars guys!
I know I will probably NEVER have my entire collection back of vintage Star Wars and it's ok. I think I can live with it. But man, you made this blogger so frickin happy. I never expected to see these. I could go on and on....
Kevin(Buzz)is one awesome fellow! And am glad to see you all smiles too Hobby. : )
ReplyDeleteI kinda looked stoned in those pics...
DeleteYou look positively GIDDY. That's a word I rarely use, but it certainly applies here. Grats on the toys!
ReplyDeleteSo giddy. These two figures mean more to me than anything that is new.
DeleteVery nice :)
ReplyDeleteNot bad huh?
DeleteI specifically looked for some monster stuff for you, including some Monsters in my Pocket figures. Mantenna is one of the most monstrous He-Man characters out there. The weirdo figure was kind of monster like also. I stick a PEZ dispenser in every care package I ever send. I knew you had mentioned on here before that you missed your vintage Star Wars figures. I had a couple of duplicates in my custom toy fodder box. So I dug them out and sent them over. The smile on your face is worth every dollar of the outrageous shipping to Mexico. Those toys did their job... they put a smile on someone's face.
ReplyDeleteThanks again! It is outrageous to send here. That is why I gave ya the Texas address first. I am in love with the Star Wars vintage though..
ReplyDeleteAt last I can see the Man behing Monster Cafe Saltillo blog!!
ReplyDeleteI also love the laser beam eyes in the fourth photo ;)
