A great find today!

On my hunt to find a snapping turtle for This is Not a Test, I haunted Toys'R'Us and found this gem that I snagged up that was marked clearance and the last one.

The box.

The truck loaded up with several of my cars.

A Strange Aeons fig next to the truck to show scale.

I have been wanting a semi truck of some type, so this car carrier fit the bill for something different to add to the table for games for Project Z and Supersystem. I admit I would love to find a scale bus but that won't happen. oh well, this was a mere $15 and my average price of $3-5 for cars from Dollar General and CVS this to me worked out to be a fair deal.

There are two more sets, one is a cool fire/rescue set that has a nice ladder truck, a fire engine, a police swat van, a police car and some other assorted items. The other set is a construction set, but some of the vehicles in the set are a tad out of scale, thus  not making it a value compared to the other set. I figure both will be purchased in the future.

Post Apoc Miniatures KS almost over! Get in on it if you have not!

Well, I was early in and not disappointed. Looking forward to these babies hitting my mail box. The only regret I have is not enough cash to keep pledging for more goodies. Oh well, I will pick up more on the back end when the backer kit hits....

They just added a cool series of mutants which is what I was hoping would crop up soon and at the prices they are at, I am good to go!

Join in and walk the Wasteland!

Kickstarter Watch! MadBob French Vehicles

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/454980184/french-vehicles-of-wwii-by-madbobminiatures-in-1-5

Well, I have been quiet for a few months. The long story short: Holidays, New Job, Vacation and Convention. So, time slipped by quickly these past few months.

So, taking a moment to talk about a Kickstarter by Mad Bob! A sponsor for Crucible V also! Thanks Bob! If you play French or want to play French in WW2 28mm gaming, well sign up and pledge away! Just French only? No, Germans also used captured French gear and heaped on top of that was several lesser nations that used many of the same vehicles.

Kung Fury - A must watch movie!

Wife was out with her co-worker's last night for drinks and celebrating a birthday and I was home alone with the dog and looking for something to entertain me but nothing overly complex to watch. Then I found this sleeper of a movie.

Let me first say this isn't a fantastic movie, it is the typical "B" mod movie. It's bad, but in a good way bad that is entertaining and short (30 mins). 

What gripped me is the early on opening of a cop car being flipped into the air by a skateboard and then blown apart by small arms fire by some thugs. Then a video game turns into a killing machine shooting everything around it and flipping people off. At least until the hero shows up.

I won't spoil the plot but let's just say it just has a crazy mix of cool cars, David Hasselhoff jokes, 80's technology nostalgia with Hitler calling himself the "Kung Fuhrer" and backing up this bad ass martial arts time traveling cop is Triceratops Cop, the Norse God Thor, a Valkyrie riding a T-Tex, a Feral chick with a mini-gun and wolf alongside a Hacker....yea....I don't think they missed too much! Well maybe zombies...

Watch it with a grain of salt and for a laugh.

I found it on Netflix...but also apparently a site has an "touch game" for Kung Fury and has the full 30 min movie on the site. Enjoy!

Marvel's Dead Pool Movie - *****

No  spoilers here! I don't do crap like that.

Great movie, perhaps the best ever Marvel movie to date. The one liner quips by Dead Pool was a scream and the pacing was great, not a boring moment in it.

My wife that isn't a comic book fan actually went when we first met to go see Daredevil for Valentine's weekend, well we all know that movie sucked. Of late she half watches the Flash and the Arrow with of late I was able to get her to watch AKA Jessica Jones and Daredevil, she is excited already for season 2 of Daredevil, while she has never read a comic book her only favorite movie to date was the Punisher that was comic book based. 

Oh, I will give you one hint - stay for the credits....Easter Egg! 

2017 Movie Watch List: Guardians Soviet Superheroes

Wow, 2017 could have a sleeper here for super hero movies!

Great Scenery from CVS!

Well, swung into a CVS in Chicago during my visit there and found a cool taxi cab on a collectible toy car display. Later I swung into another and found a nifty ambulance that I also wanted to add to my table for super heroes and zombie apocalypse gaming.

Doors open.

The inside of the ambulance is detailed.
