Moon Cow

In the book and movie, First Men in the Moon, by HG Wells the men discover a large caterpillar creature.
I discovered this one at Dollar General.
It's pretty plain and more a worn then a caterpillar but in my universe this the moon cow.
He looks like he needs a happy face drawn on the head.  I probably won't do that.
It's a very big creature, probably work fine for 1/72nd scale, 60mm and maybe even GI Joe.
Batman in 1/72nd scale.

The tail looks just like the middle.

Moon cow and Selenite.

Dune Buggy

I like the paint job on this car, and the eyes in the tires look like a cat.
Since I don't do Deadpool, I think I may reassign this car.
And give it to Catwoman.
The original dune buggy was the Meyers Manx and that is a cat name.
Joker is fond of surfing and Catwoman has worked with him in the past so this could be a good car for her.

Deadpool Dune Buggy

This is a Deadpool Hot Wheels.
The motif is supposed to be related to that super hero.
I doubt that he ever actually appeared in a dune buggy because Hot Wheels often takes otherwise stock cars and paints them up for a comic book character.
Nearly all of my Super Hero collection stops at about 1980, and few or no new characters after that.
That 50 year history is really enough for me.
But this is a cool car and so I got one.

Deora Surf Car Line Up

I am building cities from all over the world but my largest, is of course the USA.
Growing up in Southern California, surf culture was all around me.
While I did not surf, I did like the movies, the aesthetic, and music, and the beach too.

As part of that I have been buying and painting beach people and beach vehicles. 

Hot Wheels is from California and they make a lot of surf related vehicles.
These are all part of their recent Deora cars.
