  • Recent Move and a few acquisitions

    My wife and I moved last month. It was the culmination of a hectic summer; but it means that we now have a larger house; and I get a mancave!




    I was also able to pick up a few new pieces due to a club meeting; an accidental ebay purchase and an antiquing trip.

    The club meeting was a great time; and the host, Art has one of the most extensive vintage collections that I know of.





    I picked up a very nice space capsule and accessories for my talking MOA





    I also grabbed a nice fully equipped Stony Smith; and gave him a job!





    Stony wasn't the only Marx acquisition. I had placed a bid on a Buddy Charlie on EBay; and had forgotten about it. I won it; and gave him some new gear to replace his smoke-smelling uniform.





    I also transferred Captain Action to the Hussars:




    After a housewarming party on Sunday, we went to Maine on Monday to have one last Summer trip. I had luck antiquing there in the past, but figured I had little chance of getting anything. We went to only one major antique store, but it was having a sale...




    Quickly found a driver!

        Hi Glidah Drivah,

        You have a nice tidy display there, some great looking Joes and other figures, your Joe room looks very clean, fresh and modern looking, well done on your Joe collection so far, I especially like the jeep trailer searchlight....

        My Joe/AM/MAM Room looks totally out of control and very untidy, i have totally forgotten what i have stashed away since 2009, I tried to do a bit of tidying up Saturday last, but gave up after an hour, it was too much for me, i had to wear a protective mask for the dust, I keep everything protected from dust in large black plasic bags.

        Fall in A, fall in B, fall in all the company!
