Dinosaur Photo Box

Photo box showing two ancient creatures, a pterodactyl, and a T-Rex I think.
Nice scene with a volcano in the background and river in the foreground.
I added a few dollar store dinosaurs to the scene.  On the white floor it does not look that good.
I added a bit of carpet and it improves the photo a lot.
These kinds of boxes with a photo inside are something I have done for a long time.
My dinosaur does not like the paper dinosaur.

 They give one another the side eye.

Imperial Godzilla

This is the Imperial Toys Godzilla monster from about 1965.
He is 13 inches tall.
And 14 inches long.  He has arms and legs that move but not the head, jaws, or tail, which is fine.
The paint job is pretty good for a 60 year old toy.
Imperial Made in Hong Kong.
1965 Toho Co, LTD.

I want a Godzilla figure, of the 1954 Godzilla, that is comparable to this one.  Minimal articulation, and at least 24 inches tall.  Figure companies keep making more and more Godzilla figures but they are often ridiculous, have multiple parts, multiple heads, alternate hands, all of which runs up the price and provides rather limited value, in my opinion.

We need a 24 inch tall 1954 Godzilla that costs less than $250 dollars, is strong, reasonably detailed, and has good play value.  I am waiting for one that will fill the last major hole in my collection of movie monsters.

3D Printing

Another woman from the French Exodus set, 3D printed.
This woman would work in South American.
Italy.
Greece.
Spain.
Almost anywhere in the last 100 years or more where Western culture has been the norm.
Here they are fleeing from the Germans.
It really enhances the story when the invader, Martians, Godzilla, Germans, Russians, Americans almost anything that might make people flee.

3D Printed Little Boy

Another figure from the French Exodus set.
1/72nd scale 3D printed.
This little boy is not unlike the other figures as he would work well for several centuries of figures.
And for almost anywhere in Western Europe or North America.
The detail is amazing to me.
Another figure from the same line.
These figures are well suited to dioramas, set ups, and miniature wargames, or role playing games.
While these figures depict people fleeing from the WWII German blitzkrieg in France they have many uses.
Sadly wars all over the world have left children in conditions of refugee and in despair.
These figures should be released soon, stay tuned for more details.
