Ordering that t-rex summoned forth memories.Here I am, circa 9 years old. In the background, a plastic t-rex I had until a few too many moves demolished it beyond repair. 
I was wearing glasses by this point, but my mother always made me take them off for pictures. (They're probably in my left hand!) Amazing to think that by this time in my life I had already crossed the Atlantic Ocean three times by liner, with the same number of trips across Canada by train.

Pooh? No. I wonder if there even were Pooh toys back then. Content? Well, it took me quite a long time to realize other kids didn’t live like that!

Received the POP! Black Bolt today. Once again so accurately detailed it could be used as reference. Best part, tho, the black parts are BLACK!

Just completed this from my Funko Pop "wish list"...Captain Britain in his original costume! Like many others, my first exposure to him was through Marvel Team-Up that John illustrated. I love this costume more than the later/current versions.

Certainly a sign of the times when Toho Productions starts licensing these types of Godzilla wear...
Comes in the Heisei-era
G-Force
And the more recent
Shin Godzilla Organization
versions

3 ft T-Rex arrived yesterday. Pretty impressive!!
Took about an hour to assemble. Would have been less, but I had all the ribs and tailbones installed on the metal "spine" when I realized I had the darn thing upside down!!! No glue is required, but I am nervous about it being just "perched" on the base!
