    Made it home - here's my loot.

    whoa, got into one heckuva severe thunder storm about 35 miles from home. Soooo bad, us and 8 other cars took shelter under an overpass due to the shear whiteout conditions.

    But, got home...got unloaded...getting hugs & kisses in.

    Time to show off the loot I brought home.
    My $$ was spent on customs...nice customs. Some great talent on these here boards. My only fig purchase that wasn't custom was Thing. What made it for me was:
    1) I didn't have a Thing at home
    2) It was actually on one of my own backer cards from 2002 and still in really nice shape.

    Enjoy -

    (Backer card was one of my experiments from around 2004 that NEVER got a figure to put in it until now!!)

















    and in closing...all I have to say is, "how about those belt loops"?

      Great stuff. I can't wait to get my Indy. I wish I was getting one of Ed's Wolfmans too.

                  those MEGO keychains are awesome.

                  I managed to pick one up, but I am in awe of their craftsmanship!

                    It all looks great, especially the Batman. Does anybody know where the bubble on the Batman card came from? I have been looking for a taller bubble for my figs.

                      the card and bubble are mine from back in the day.
                      If I tell you where the bubble came from...I'd have to do an Achmed the Dead Terrorist on you.

                      The bubble is a good inch taller, so it accomodates figs like this Batman as well as Andorian. However, it is not wide enough for Hulk-style figs. The Superman I made over the weekend will not fit in it

                      The card itself has full backside art in classic Kresge-style and is punched with my custom tools.

                          I did the Q&A panel last year. I described how I made my backer cards back in the day and I may have showed examples using my pc connected to the projector.

                            So, do you sell the bubbles? I have 6 to 8 taller figures, and I can't seem to find anyone who sells these darn things.

                              Nope, that was me, Ed It was a pleasure to meet you, your girlfriend, and your dog at the Meet.

                              Same goes for the Gordys - it was nice to finally get to meet you after all these years, Mr. Gordy. I was hoping for the Iron Man suit since I missed it last year, but cest la vie
