I really don't understand why some have to be such nasty buggers.

From my local shop I picked up this cool Ben Cooper Scat the Fun Bat with his original tag.  He'd been hanging around collecting dust for multiple visits, so I made an offer and took him home.  I really dig the jigglers with the "hair" texture fingers, they feel so cool.  Zombie Grin

Great find, even more so with the tag.

I was trying to come up with a neat way to display my red and white Mon-Stirs and I-Scream Spoons, and thought a shadow box would be a neat way to go.  Well, shadow boxes are crazy expensive in the craft stores, but I found these 8"x8" ones at walmart for $8 : http://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainstays-8x8-Shadowbox-Frame-Black/17284449. I went into Microsoft paint and made a background from high res images of their respective box art and scooted them together to fit in frame.  Here's a link to the full size background in case anyone else wants to make their own: http://i.imgur.com/7rAQZR6.jpg . I just arranged them and then tapped a staple around each one to gently cradle it in place. I think it turned out pretty sweet, maybe some spiderwebs painted on the corners of the glass to add some neat depth to it...

Stay sick. Turn blue. Drop dead.

Was super stoked to snag this pretty good lookin AHI Frankenstein jiggler on ebay for like 30 bucks buy it now. Here he is with his smaller bendy counterpart.

Mord

 Great duo (nice early Karloff likenesses)

Gory Glenn

Nice. The large one's face reminds me of the Aurora Frankenstein.

Thanks so much! I'm pretty happy with it. And Mike, I just haven't gotten to do the white ones yet, but it'll be the same layout.

Bound to look equally cool!  I want to do a Creature version, if I can ever get the white and yellow ones.

Awesome finds you got there Hepcat. I'm new at this and would love to know where I can find stuff like this here in Toronto.

Why did MOEBIUS do a LIS Robot kit? Are the Polar Lights ones that hard to find?

I like the SEA TREASURE box for the Penn Plax! Nicer than the JEWEL-BOX one.
