WHAT COLLECTABLES HAVE YOU GOT RECENTLY?
Acquired anything for your collections of late readers? Toys, comics, games, records, DVDs or other merchandise maybe?

Couple of Aoshima kits (Fireflash and the Recovery Vehicle). Also a couple of Bandai Terrahawks toys, Hawkwing and Terrahawk.
ReplyDeleteLovely stuff Kev. Will you be making the models?
DeleteI have made the Fireflash and will make the other. If I ever get a break from puppy raising, I'll take some photos!
DeleteThe first all-complete example of the Finnish version of the Pepys' "Neville Duke's 'Test Pilot' Card Game"

Published in 1958 under the name Koelentäjä ("Test Pilot"), the cards are pretty much the same although the Neville Duke card was re-named simply "test pilot" and the package was designed anew for the Finnish market.
What, the first all-complete Finnish set ever found Arto?
DeleteSorry Woodsy, meant to say found by me. I am sure others exist, although this game is pretty scarce, and easily missing a card or more like my earlier example.
DeleteWhat a uniquely rare set of cards, Arto! What a cool find, well done :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Tony, it took me a while!
DeleteI've got the badge (came with Fantastic #54, which I've also got) and the stickers. Let me know if you'd like a copy of the stickers.
ReplyDeleteI'd love a copy of the stickers Kid! hey thanks!
DeleteSend me your address again, Woodsy. Don't worry, I won't publish it.
