New additions to the collection.
The Mickey Mouse figure was given to me as a gift. It was a gift that made me very happy. Bane, produced by Spinmaster, reminded me of the past years and especially Kenner. It is a product that excites me both in terms of the size of the figure and the box design. The Lego guide will be useful for me in terms of information.

That Bane packaging is what almost made me buy him, too. Very cool.

The package design of the entire series is very successful. It's definitely cool.

New additions to the collection.
I have been following the Wolfenstein game for years. In my opinion, Return to Castle is the best game in the Wolfenstein series. When I saw this special production whistle belonging to this game, I didn't want to miss it. ![]() I have wanted to add the Beavis and the Butthead Pop Culture series car to my collection for a long time and now it has taken its place in the collection. The Wild West figures are the figures that Timpo Toys released in 1970. When I saw them , I wanted to buy them and evaluate them immediately. They need repairs and I need to make bases for all of them. Two figures from the Heman series were added to the collection. Also, magazines about toys are very important to me.

Nice! I am also a big fan of Toy Magazines. I used to have a ton of ToyFare issues. I stupidly sold them on eBay years ago.

Don't call yourself that. You are sad, i know. Sometimes we sell suddenly because of need, sometimes because we don't have enough space in our house or sometimes when we are fed up with some items. However, we may regret it as time goes by. Because it can be hard to put some of them back in their place. When we sell things we don't care about, they come back to our minds years later. And we say, "I wish I hadn't sold them" For example, I sold my Kratos, Majini and T1000 figures and now I can't put them back in their place. I sold 2 figures from the Sectaur series and it's very hard to find them again. Of course, much better figures have replaced them, but I still want to buy them again.

Oh, I get it. The number of things I've sold out of sheer necessity is staggering. I've really only come to regret a small percentage of them, luckily.
I had a bunch of the original Sectaurs, but they, like many childhood toys, just vanished over time. I did buy one of the new releases, but it is not quite satisfying the itch for my old toys. |

I'm starting a new project. I'm going to try to make a custom VHS tape from the Resident Evil 7 collector's edition. I got the necessary prints. Now I'll move on to painting and weathering. I hope it's a good project.

Is this a full sized tape? Tea works very well for aging paper.

On a side note, last week my company put in new "security limitation" on the internet, now I can no longer access Toyark from work. And when I get home, there's just too much things to do (my garage door belt just broke 2 days ago! sigh...). I lost access to Hisstank 1/2 year back, but that was no big loss. I can still access TFW2005. For now. All that is to say, I'm not as active here as I used to be, but I'm still around whenever I find the time! |

Wow, I didn't know Resident Evil 7 came with an old VHS tape, that should be an interesting project!
What kind of tea? Bubble tea? On a side note, last week my company put in new "security limitation" on the internet, now I can no longer access Toyark from work. And when I get home, there's just too much things to do (my garage door belt just broke 2 days ago! sigh...). I lost access to Hisstank 1/2 year back, but that was no big loss. I can still access TFW2005. For now. All that is to say, I'm not as active here as I used to be, but I'm still around whenever I find the time! Sorry to hear that. It's always great to see you on the forum and read your comments. Please don't stay away too long. ![]()

Today, I worked on the project in all the free time I had and completed it.
I would like to give brief information. - I used an original VHS tape. - I unscrewed the tape and placed the tape inside so that it would not break. - I placed crumpled freezer bags for the transparent parts where we see the tape inside the tape and used them as an effect. - Then I painted the transparent parts with dark brown and after it dried, I tried to create a rust and dirt effect. For the two labels I would put on them, I tried the tea idea given by spasticplastic and soaked the papers in brewed cold tea. The papers turned a little yellow. Then I mixed brown and black paint in appropriate tones. And I gave the labels a dirt effect. I continued the project by imagining that this tape had been waiting for a long time and had been in a humid and damp environment. Finally, I completed the project by giving the entire tape a dirt and rust effect. Thank you.

Hello everyone again.
Some new objects added to the collection. Giraffe, one of the Toys R Us mascots, was added to the collection. I actually had the plush toy version in my collection. However, the figure version from the 90s is included in my collection for the first time. This is important to me. The figure of the character Noody, who first appeared in 1949, was added to the collection. I continue to expand the James Bond Jr. series. Dr. Derange was added to the collection. And again, the Kenner Batman series, which has a very important place in my life. A new Robin figure was added to the collection. The Mr. Freeze keychain from 1997 was added to the collection. It has really great details and weight. The Kermit figure from the Muppets' NHL Mcdonalds special series from the 90s was added to the collection. Finally, a playmobil from the Naruto series and Vectis magazines were added to the collection. The magazines contain detailed information about many old toys.

Hello everyone.
I have made a few new additions to the collection. I continue to collect the Street Fighter figures series. My fighting stage project for these figures is completely ready, but I need to have a special wood board prepared with the appropriate fineness and color. Each fighter will have a separate display case and will have lighting and visuals inside. A cassette player produced by Nintendo in the 90s was added to the collection. It is one of the rarest cassette players of Nintendo. It is in working condition and clean. It really has a great atmosphere that reminds me of the old times. ![]() Finally, the large size tiger from the Kelloggs brands mascot from 1998 was added to the collection. This version is quite rare.

What do you think of those Street Fighter figures? I see them all the time, but just don't know about diving into another side thing...

I think Jada Toys is doing very successful work in the Street Fighter figures series. I think it is very successful both in terms of price and figure quality. I also care about the accessories and interchangeable heads. I also think the face models and joints are nice. I want to complete this series and I am preparing a display area. I recently ordered the Ken and Dhalsim characters. I don't know what kind of collection you are making. However, if you are making a collection of game characters, I think it is a very sufficient series. The Sagat, Blanka and Vega characters that are newly released to the market also look very good.
