So the day after my LPB2 double-pack from Jimbo arrived this showed up in my mailbox. I believe this is called fate! Please welcome BK Totem Paula to the foreign family. I hated seeing Kim Kong go but she is loved at her new home with GPKDNA. I also needed room at my house for my new foreign exchange student from Japan. Hopefully she'll get along with her Spanish cousin, Susanita, who's been awfully quiet lately. ๐๐

Thanks so much to Jimbo for helping me find Janet's Israeli twin, along with a few other Israeli gems!! Xmas came a couple days early ๐๐ I don't buy much current stuff but I figured a John Pound auto was essential for my Janet rainbow, especially for the price ๐ค Thanks for the hookup Dirty Dog!! ๐

This arrived today and not GPK but too cool not to share. I didn't know these even existed until a couple weeks ago. Lots of other Atari titles out there too Missile Command, Yars Revenge, etc. There's also 7" Read-along books ๐๐ค 1982 Atari Asteroids 12" LP [Kids Stuff Rec] (sealed) This 7"Atari Asteroids read-along arrived yesterday to compliment the 12". Very proud of this find! ๐๐ค Anybody read about the Berenstain Bears Parallel Universe Theory? Was hoping it was spelled "Berenstein" here. ๐ค ๐ฝ

I'm sure everyone has seen the Placo Toys catalogue before but I'm hoping to find pics of some of the ultra rares in someone's collection. Anybody ever seen the Hard Hat (6 to a set), Thermos (4 to a set), or the actual Ball Gun itself? I know a collector up here has the Target Cards for the Ball Gun, but I'd love to see any other pics. Even childhood pics holding these items at Xmas would suffice just to prove their existence! Pics courtesy of geepeekay.com ๐

With Jimbo's recent LPB2 Box find it has me wondering if a Gang Do Lixo display box is out there somewhere. Since every other official Topps release seems to have a display box I figured GDL must too. Anybody ever seen one? ๐ค

So topps gets hacked 2+ months ago, but only yesterday lets is consumers know. I feel the need for a card to celebrate their continued douchebaggery.... Your request has been answered haha 2 months of time really went by without Topps notifying its customers? They hyped up the online sales for the last 6 months during the entire election too, exact same timeframe that HAL was Hacked by Vladimir. Dude......Topps Sucks ๐

What a great score! True foreign gold. Take a bow Epic find for sure. Finally some LPB2 packs to fill that hole in everyone's collection. ๐ This huge find also guarantees the existence of a yellow LPB1 box......

I didn't realize the S1 Funkos had an outer case box. Do the S2 have it also? yep Cool. I've only seen them in stores so never saw the outer box.

No worries! And I love hearing what others think, too. And yes!! I think you are onto something there. Lemme eat some candy and sort through GPK I got for Christmas while I give it some thought. This shirt hints at that idea too I think.

"Anybody notice anything strange at the end when Eleven has the flea pinned against the chalkboard? ๐ฎ" --That entire scene was strange and intense haha "Is the sherriff's daughter "Ten" or a previous subject, still out there in the upside down? She didn't have the same telekinetic capabilities as Eleven for the mind experiments so she got sick. Remember her stuffed tiger in the upside-down? Maybe planted there by the men-in-black, maybe not. Either way, as a father the sheriff is determined to find his daughter." --In my opinion, I don't think his daughter was 10. She was raised by her family, etc, not kidnapped like 11 was and so forth. If she was a part of MK Ultra, she would have never seen her parents. I think she was just a sick child who unfortunately died. But I may be wrong. Anyway, Hopper's daughter's stuffed tiger is just like the one 11 had in her room at the Hawkins National Labaratory. Maybe he snagged it when they went back in to get Will and left it for her there, anticipating she would somehow be relegated to the "upside down" at some point. It's interesting to note that the Hawkins school's mascot is a tiger. "Does Barbara turn into the Alien pod at the end, thus spawning a new Flea? And that's why females are used as nests, and the boys are used to spread the worms back into their own reality. Will spit the worm into the drain. Pretty soon the whole town will be acrobat/flea hybrids!! ๐ฆ" --Very good theory and you could be right, but I think Barb's deader than hell, never to be seen again haha Thanks for the reply! I love hearing diff theories on this show. So during the end scene when Eleven has the flea pinned to the chalkboard, when Eleven raises her hand, the flea raises its hand but the opposite one, mirror-image ๐ฎ I believe the flea was spawned from Eleven's subconsciousness, via her telekinetic abilities. That's why the flea mimics her in movement at the end. All of those thought and sensory-deprivation experiments and being caged like an animal caused her fears and loneliness to build up until she went into her own subconsciousness and manifested those fears into the flea. She apologizes a lot for it being "her fault" too. Not exactly her fault, but it came from inside her brain! Just a theory but interesting to ponder. ๐ค

I always like to post something special on special occasions and since today is Christmas here's a trifecta I've been working on for a while. The Israeli version proved hardest to find and was the last to complete the trilogy. Special thanks to Adam/Jimbo, first and current King of Israel, for finding Israeli Monte!! Merry Christmas everyone!! ๐
