LEGO MOC Justice Society of America

I was thinking about The Spectre today, probably because of the new James Bond movie, and it dawned on me that I probably had (between all the LEGO and bootlego pieces I have lying around) enough bits and bobs to make an honest to goodness Spectre minifigure.

I returned home from work (because those are the thoughts I have when I am bored at work) and busted out my stash...and as it turns out I was right!

I've posted about my MOC Jay Garrick Flash and my Sandman minfigures before. As for Spectre, I pieced him together from a bootlego Green Arrow hood, a bootlego Loki cape, a LEGO ghost torso and arms, random white legs, a LEGO Toy Story army man's green hands, a random LEGO green crotch, and a LEGO Ninjago skull.

I love The Spectre, and can't believe it took me this long to piece a LEGO version together!

Random Toy Pic :: Batman Meets...Batgirl?

'Hello, sexy. Want to find out if the Batmobile has a back seat?'
I picked up this Star Wars alien Kabe from the flea market the other day. Kabe was originally released as a Power of the Force Star Wars fan club exclusive along with Muftak (a version of which I already own.) Kabe is a girl, and a bat-headed Chadra-Fan girl at that, who appeared in the original Star Wars Cantina scene! How could I pass on her for just a dollar? I couldn't, that's how.

I Ain't Afraid Of No Ghost! :: Real Ghostbusters Peter Venkman

Halloween is over, but the spooky fun never stops around here!

I found a scaredy Peter Venkman from the Real Ghostbusters action figure line at the thrift store today, and my intern helped me with a Halloween Hangover frightening photo shoot!

Squeeze his arm and Peter's eyes bug out, his jaw drops and his hair pops up! AAAHHHHH!

Not surprisingly, Peter is a bit spooked by all those spooks above. 

Perhaps more surprisingly...

Peter was also spooked by a trio of Barbie's super pets...

...and Mr. Snuffleupagus too!

Peter Venkman, you're a bit high-strung. You need a vacation.
