Look at My Stuff - Donnie Baseball



Disclosure: I grew up a Yankees fan. So, it being the 80's, I loved Don Mattingly (and Dave Winfield, Dave Righetti, etc.)

(But hey, now I pull for a team that can't do anything right!)

So here's my Don Mattingly action figure.






And here's Donnie Baseball battling it out with Obi-Wan Kenobi with a dinosaur in the background.

Look at My Stuff - Star Wars Edition



Because one post about my Star Wars action figures wasn't enough, I bring you this post.

In middle school I sold off most of my Star Wars action figures. Apparently I managed to miss a few while herding them for the yard sale. Like these two duders. I have no clue who they are, except that they look pretty lame. Then there's Yoda.





Pictured above are two different versions of Yoda. On the left is the modern action figure. I think I bought this one around the time The Phantom Menace arrived in theaters. He's pretty lame. On the right is the old 80's version. He's got his own snake, cane and bathrobe to go along with some crazy eyes. You don't get that attention to detail these days.

Look at my Stuff - Pt 1

A new city (sort of) means a new feature for the blog!!

In this new recurring series, I will present you with stuff that I own.

Some of it will be interesting, most of it will inevitably not be interesting. You be the judge.




Pictured above is an Obi-Wan Kenobi Star Wars Action figure. If I recall correctly, I received this figure by saving proof-of-purchases off of Kellogg's Cereal Boxes in my younger years. I'm not sure why I kept this one figure, but sold off basically every other one I owned. He doesn't even have a totally super awesome lightsaber that pops out of his arm.
