I'm going to post a random toy from my collection every day this month in an event I call "ToyVember" which is in no way connected to "Toyotathon." Here we go with entry #1, Mattel's Pulsar or, as my daughter dubbed him,

"Gross-Man." #ToyVember

I'm doing it on my insta.

I've also opted to only post pre-2000 toys.

ToyVember Challenge Day 2:
Kenner Tusken Raider. I've had this one since childhood; my parents brought it back from CDN Toy Fair in 1978. He's one of my favourites and as you can tell, he's seen combat. #ToyVember

LJN plush Snarf for #ToyVember.

Got him around 85 or 86 at Toys R Us. I was surprised to find him. I had no idea he existed. The plush Snarf was not shown on any of the card backs or booklets. I know it's gotten popular over the years to hate characters like Snarf, Kowl and Orko but I don't care. I still love them. I even kept his box all these years.

I like this idea!

Well this is my "platform" it seems so #ToyVember

This are sort of toys/collectables to me, but aren't toys in most terms. These are original Nightmare Before Christmas props. I've had them a number of years and are screen used. The guillotine is animated during the "Making Christmas" montage, and actually does move up and down. The green present is to the right of the Christmas tree when Jack is trying to explain Christmas to the Halloweentown residents on stage. The pumpkin I've never been able to find, but matches some others I've seen.

^^ Superawesomegoodness! My wife has several stop motion props and puppets in her collection and they elicit a magical quality that is undeniable.

We didn't properly celebrate Halloween this year… I gotta get in on this thread!

Thanks! I would love to see anything! I have an attachment to Nightmare Before Christmas, but not enough money to play in that sandbox unfortunately. I also have a tree that is supposed to be from it as well, but can't confirm it.

Crazy as it sounds, years ago, Disney had original props and set pieces on display at Hollywood Studios, in their backlot tour, and when the time was done to rotate something else in, they chucked most of it into dumpsters. A lot of the christmas town sets and "real" town sets were just thrown away. Some people started dumpster diving back then grabbing stuff.

I love this thread.

I have sofubi(?) of those 3 characters, it seems they can be cut apart to put on figures.

It's terrific that this launched with Pulsar, I've loved that figure since I was a child.

I know what toy I'm doing for day five, but I need a better photo. Lighting just isn't right.

ToyVember Challenge Day 4:
Mego Spider-Man Super Savers Bank, this was a birthday gift from my grandparents on my mum's side. A lot of what they gave me I still have.
