Holy crackers, Rei... Adorable! Looks like we were posting in the same moment, heh. Apologies for instantly bumping your snaps out of sight.
Thanks Steve! Xmas is always a blast with the girls. The whole toy thing- they get it! Not at all! That Garamon is lovely. Nostalgic Heroes? Such a great, frumpy lil' nug.
Yeah, NH's softie repro of the old Marusan snap kit. Fit the mood of the day. I was so pleased to find my new friends still in place, and with some evidence of more play happening in my absence.
Oh that's great! You'll have to keep going back and letting us know! A friend of mine once loaded up the front balcony of a house that was for sale with a crazy toy display, and everyday after work would go by to see what had happened during the day. Of course some toys went missing, but many had simply been rearranged, and new toys had even been added! A cool & fun project; something very "Andy Goldsworthy" about it!
There was a fun set up in a little garden/flower bed in front of an apartment building in Montreal. It wasn't for passing folks to play with (though how any child could have resisted is hard to fathom), but was a nice sight to take in nonetheless. It was a little pre-historic setting with a bunch of fair-sized dinos strewn across the landscape. I decided I would love to do this myself with some classic Imperials if I am ever able. Really put a smile on the face, especially walking by on bleak days when you could use that little surprise pleasure.

Thanks, Rei! Those little pink companions helped make a very unpleasant expedition seem almost enjoyable. Saucer mini + poster putty = instant fun!
Hunting for a new place to live sucks, especially on a freshly surgered foot. It's much easier with a friend... ...and a double double from Telway! Buta ButaNoBwana Kupukupu yard yards micro
^ Wonderful capture of a mood, sir. Still hunting for a place to land - three more suburban yards: To say that this process is getting depressing would be to suggest that it didn't start out that way. Again, nice to have pocket pals to help carry me through. Whee.

I sympathise. Having just gone through it myself (still in the midst), and having shifted more times than I care to even think on, I know the difficulty. Moving is indeed the worst. I cannot adequately or justly express my disdain for the entire process here. I wish you all the best of luck with it, David. Having a little piece of urban yardage in your new toy settlement, if you are able, is some small consolation.
^ Thanks, Steve. You're the sweetheart's sweetheart. All the best on your cross-continental haul as well. Further repetitions: This Rx schit is for the birds. I need a new hobby.

Thank you for the kind words! I certainly do hope you find a new spot to call home soon, but it is refreshing to know there's creative sanity in your pockets through these shots!

Ha! That is a perfect shot. It could very well be inside Zarab's spaceship straight out of the Tsuburaya prop shop, re-purposed for his new postal delivery duties. I just love it David, what a nice discovery.
Very cool! I'm thinking it looks like some kind of transportation (teleportation?) device~ like it's going to suck him up or beam him off somewhere! He looks damn cute standing there waiting for it to happen..
My first quicky of the scenario didn't turn out so well: I'm glad that the second shot turned out, as when I looked up from taking it I noticed an ashen faced nurse looking me up and down like I was insane. She questioned me thoroughly about what the heck I was up to, and after the tests that I was in the building for I ended up sat down with two hospital administrators for what felt like ages - apparently it is now illegal to take photographs inside of a hospital. I had to pantomime deleting my memory card to get out of there! So weird.

Very bizarre. You would think that with all the strangeness that takes place on a regular basis in hospitals, something like that would not earn the barest of eyebrow raises. Ah well, least you got out of there with that SANE stamp on your form.
