Monte

We're all quite well. We've been back in California for a little over a year, and we're all liking our respective schools a lot.

Thanks, TENIME! How are things?

I'd go all in on a Buffy series!

Ha ha! Nor should you. Thanks for the kind words, folks!

The Strange Adventures of Ostog the Unslain by Monte Williams, on Flickr With thanks (or curses?) to MiniMates Multiverse's own Prowl-Ar, who first turned me onto them by giving me a set of the then-new Thundercats Series 1 (which I wish I'd kept, because it's quite prohibitively expensive to reacquire them these days), here are some photos I have captured of various MiniMates toys over the years.

Great stuff, as always. I've still got to get your BttF and your custom alien hunter back to you. Incidentally, I visited your alma mater today, although I assume it was a different building when you were there; I'll be doing some interning at the high school.

Man that hulkbuster is sweet!!! Kinda reminds me of Samus as well! Oh wow, I can totally see that.

Dang, good call on that Marvel Select base!

Know When to Fold 'Em by Monte Williams, on Flickr

Funny combination of comments there, 'cause the first thing I did when I saw all those Iron Man figures was set them aside in the Keepers pile to make a Hall of Armors display... only to realize a couple days later that 1. I lack the skills and resources to actually make such a thing, 2. if such an item exists already it's bound to cost more than I want to pay and, most importantly, 3. having never had an attachment to Iron Man comic books, most of the figures only appealed to me because they're so impressive taken as a whole; remove the Hall display idea and I'm left with a bunch of figures that don't really fit my usual aesthetic. So instead I kept just a few figures from that ginormous Iron Man/Patriot/War Machine pile. Surprisingly, I kept two War Machine figures; don't know a thing about and couldn't care less about the character, but some of those designs are wicked! Dude! You're the king. I also have something for you. Or will have, when it arrives.

Netglow, that dio is sweet! As for filters, I prefer the tools on PicMonkey and Pixlr: http://www.picmonkey.com https://pixlr.com/express/

Oh man, I'm gonna have to get one of those coffins!
