My wife put up some of my carded figures on the wall for me, looks nice i think, i'm glad she done it, if i had done they would all be different heights, lol


Also took a couple of pics of my favourite pieces

Grinchy

Grinchy

Hey @L_Volunteer, no problem, i've been pottering round in my room getting it ready for my sons stuff, keeps me busy, 

L_Volunteer

Hey @Grinchy. It sounds like you are being kept busy. How long until your son comes home now? Hopefully, just enough time for you to potter round in your room and get it ready for your son 

Grinchy

He is home now, stuff is in the living room, it'll be moved up over the next few days, thanks again 

L_Volunteer

Yay! Really positive to hear he is home now @Grinchy. How did moving the stuff go for you? Hope it went well 

Grinchy

thanks @L_Volunteer yes the stuff is all moved in now, great to have him home

L_Volunteer

That all sounds really positive @Grinchy. Yay

Really cool room @Grinchy , I love star wars too but my first love is Lara croft I love tomb raider but mom won't let me use our spare room in that way so just the games for me. 

As a little girl it was so refreshing to be introduced to a strong female character and I love to rock climb like her and a spooky fact I've always found spooky anyway is I lost my father on the same day , same month and same year as her. 

Grinchy

thanks @sunflower2 , glad you like the room, and your tomb raider stuff sounds interesting, it is spooky, sorry about your dad, cheers

So i did another trade today with a fellow collector, i have this chewbacca figure coming, its from the prototype retro range of figures, based on figures hasbro made to test the quality of the moulds they were using for the new figures, they would use any spare resin to make test figures thats why there are different coloured limbs, just a different take on the figures,
i quite like them, i have a boba done in this style to, and there's also a Darth Vader and a Stormtrooper which i don't have they are getting expensive now the Vader can go for a couple of hundred!

Grinchy

that sounds like a nice hobby your husband has, i'm glad you are supportive
sorry to hear about your mental health issues, its no fun i get that, thanks for your comment x

Grinchy

So i have been looking for something a bit unusual for the room, found these clapperboards that someone has produced, they use them in the movies to mark the start and end of a scene, thought they would look good on the wall or out on display


not here yet, but they will be soon, glad i found them

Tori_Scope

They look really cool @grinchy  

Grinchy

thanks @Tori_Scope, glad you like them, they came today and one of them had a broken clapper, easy fix with a couple of dabs of glue, seller packaged them really well to, never mind, really pleased with them, now to find a place for them
