BRIAN'S GIGANTICS

Hi Woodsy.

A trip to the attic led to an interesting find recently,a box of model kits I assembled over 20 years ago.

This one is in particularly good shape.It is The Gigantics Rampaging Scorpion kit by AMT.I remember being excited about these '90s re issues because I tried to build one in the 70s and failed miserably.

I noticed in the box that I left some of the little people unpainted.I will try to finish them soon and have a 100 percent finished diorama.-

GHOST ANGRY DRIVE RIDER?

Conveniently the 5Star TV channel has shown Ghost Rider and Drive Angry back to back tonight.

Both of these films star Nic Cage as a rampaging being of vengeance spat out of Hell to get the girl or something like that

Are they more or less the same film?

What do you think?

I SAID STOP WINDING ME UP!

Hello Woodsy

Further to the self mobile phone, back when I was a freelance graphic designer I bought this little camera as sometimes I used my photographic training as part of the job. 

I was going to incorporate it into a mailing but I started a full time job for 13 years and this remained buried until recently.

STOP WINDING ME UP!

ha ha!

First Generation Mobile Phone!

What a brilliant idea, a clockwork plastic phone with feet!

I hope whoever thought it up got the rest of the week off!

What would you put feet on?

MYSTERON ALERT!

Due to an increase in Mysteron activity, Captain Blue calls for backup.

ONE PIECE PLASTIC SPEEDBOAT ANYONE?

This is an old family shot of the Woodsies and chums at Butlins in the Sixties.

That's me in the stripey T-shirt holding the ship.

Does anyone recognise my blue speedboat with its pull-string lying on the floor?

I'd love to know the make and name again!

Did you go to Butlins?

BRAVE TANK

This obvious Bravestarr knockoff I saw on auction, the Space Sheriff, is a target set on a blister card.

The strange thing is that the knockoffers have opted for a tank as the chosen weapon to knock over the targets.

I'm pretty sure Bravestarr didn't feature a tank!

What do you think

REFRIGERATED TRUCK MYSTERY: SOLVED

I saw this refrigerated truck on an old sale by Blue Box and thought, hmmn, Gerry Anderson, but i can't think where I've seen something like it on his shows.

You?

UPDATE:

Kev has got it, the Captan Scarlet Swift Removals van!

Here's Kev's own kit version all made up. How cool is that!
