Been kind of sidetracked lately and whenever that happens, the world moves on and does neat stuff, so I'll try and play catch up.




1) Outer Space Men


The very cool Outer Space Men line of toys has a new limited edition set called "Cosmic Creators" that are signed by the legendary Mel Birnkrant, creator of the line.


Mel is one of my favourite people on the internet, a storied toy designer and artist who shares absolutely everything with his fans.


Check them out and pre-order here.


2) Doctor Who





In celebration of the show's 50th Anniversary Royal Mail is issuing a series of Doctor Who stamps. I'm not a stamp collector as such but I have to admit I want these. It feels like a giant nerd victory.

3) Alien





For those of us who can't attend Wondercon, Michael has been kind enough to give us not only a look at the Alien catalog that Super 7 is handing out but they're awesome booth display. I can't wait to get these:

The Outer Space Men look fantastic. I thought I missed the Super 7 Alien line. That is going to be great once it is unleashed. Thank you for posting.

Now rest that golden throat/brain of yours! The podcasting community needs you fresh.
