I really like the red Space Station of Death, I keep looking at that one.

If they ever get a US partner to help out on shipping, I'm there.

Or they could just ship outta my house, who knows.

I keep looking at their stuff but the overseas shipping has kept me away so far. It looks amazingly good.

I sometimes buy records not having a clue how it'll sound until it gets home.

I knew of The Grand Canyon Suite, but I did not know there was an electronic moog-and-synclavier version from Isao Tomita. Spinning now, it sounds like what I would expected to have heard around Space Mountain in 1987.

I mean it is, they were $4.99 at first when they did them for Spider-Man Classics! Granted you didn't get a trading card back then but you got a base and acomic. You paid for it with your wallet, which was attached to a chain, which was the style of the time. Now where was I?

After seeing The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T movie this week, I was surprised that I saw the record soundtrack at a store earlier today. The price was more than "impulse price cheap," but it was about typical for a decent record.

Looking on eBay I might go back and get it.

Yes Virginia, Hasbro still makes 12-inch figures. Maybe not the way you want, but they're around.

I ordered this Ecto Glow Ghostbusters set earlier because the math made it hard to skip. $20/figure for something I saw as a kid and couldn't get. I pay more than that for glow in the dark indies.

I was going to post a link and was surprised to see it sold out already.

My Apollo 18 is just standard black vinyl from that Asbestos run. Asbestos the label, not Asbestos the element.

Now spinning Flin Flon - Dixie (Version). It's on @teenbeat.bsky.social so you know it's good.

Now spinning Factory Showroom. I bought it a few years and finally opened the wrap. Sounds good.

I got the CD when it first came out, so it's interesting to hear a 2011 record of a 1996 disc. The packaging is just a jacket, not as fancy as the CD.

Just finished spinning the very good A Frames record. Mine is the 2015 reissue, because I just missed the 2002 one.

Yesterday, I found out today was Spider-Man Day.

So far at work, we posted this really cool McFarlane Toys Spider-Man statue. This is super clever. www.entertainmentearth.com/product/mf14...

Some Spider-Man Hasbro items are positively Magic and going up in about 29 minutes.

I did! I need to go back and watch some old Dudley Do-Rights again after I get off the Beany & Cecil kick. I don't think I've seen any since..... it's been a while.
