Show and Tell, anyone?

OK…so the Most Wanted feature turned out to be a dud. The reason is obvious: if you spread the word about some awesome toy you’re chasing down, you’re just increasing the competition for that toy.

So with that in mind, I’d like to pitch to you all a different feature–Show and Tell. If you own a particular toy you’re very fond of and want to show it off to the world, email me a a few photos of it (or links to online photos I can use, maybe on Flickr), along with the following information:

  • Your name or online nickname, whichever you prefer
  • Name of the toy
  • Your approximate age when you got it
  • A brief paragraph explaining why you love the toy

Any toy is game–from a simple He-Man figure to the most obscure Japanese popy. So come on–this is an invitation to show off your cool stuff and make us all jealous.

    This sounds like fun!

  2. Perhaps I would feature my Jack Burton figure from the now defunct N2 Toys Big Trouble In Little China line.

  3. I was really confused for a while. "Most Wanted Feature" read as the comic-inspired movie in my head…

    Anyway, another great idea Poe!

  4. My favorite toy was this cool octopus, but I couldn't get one 'cause this dickhead posted about it on his blog and everyone got to 'em on eBay before I could.

    Just kidding, I don't even collect anything to scale with that thing. 🙂

    I'll be dropping you a line shortly.

  5. Great idea! I'd like to share my Ewok village when it's complete, or my G.I. Joe Tomahawk helicopter… but it may take awhile until both are fit for duty.

    Cool idea Poe.

    I didn't use the Most Wanted feature because the things I want aren't impossible to find, they are just prohibitivly expensive, like Marvel Legends Deadpool. That said I might be able to figure out something for this one, although my photography skills are modest at best.

  8. Heh… this is a great idea. I know what you mean about not wanting to spread the word about awesome toys… cuz then everyone else will want one, a la Squid Blast! 😉

    I think I have something up my sleeve!

  9. I like this idea. I'll figure something out. I have some figs I love that no one else does.
