Deck The Halls.

When I was in Toho Cinema the other day, I saw an ad for Chibi-Godzilla and wondered what it's all about.

It's for Chibi short videos that can be seen on the official Godzilla YouTube Channel.

Whoa, there sure are a lot of them!

Hey, Godzilla -1 in monochrome is back! I'm still waiting to find a version with English Subs.

What is very cool is the deck of cards they have on sale. (NO Trump does not mean Trump!)

If I didn't already have this set, I'd probably get a deck.

The Jokers are Oxygen Destroyers!

My Twitch channel showed a smattering of Monster Movies so I watched Meg, Monster Hunter, and Troll. Cheeesy yes, but that yummy kind of cheese. 

I don't get into much sportball these days, yet Kudos to Toronto's own Argooooos!

I need to get around to watching this highlight reel.

My best memory of an Argos game was watching the Blues Brothers (With James Belushi) play at halftime back when John Candy co-owned the team. (Although I may be misremembering...)

I'm Ticked Off!!

The last time I intended on writing in my blog was January 9th, almost 9 months ago! I started, then faltered, then tried again, got writer's block, made another attempt, aborted my mission, then realized I'd let it go too long! What I planned to write was about these Godzilla Burgers at McDonalds. They have disappeared since then.

 

A. Spicy Thick Beef & Potato. B. Smoky Pepper Chicken. C. Cheese Double Teriyaki.

 

 

 

To my recollection, they weren't very edible. The best was probably the Chicken.

More important than the food was this Godzilla/Be@rBrick/McDonalds collaboration they had going on.

 

Although I was broke back then, I did manage to scrape together enough to order one.

I am pleased with this. I was less pleased when they took it from an exclusive set, only ordered online with a deadline, to selling them over the counter in stores. Ah well. They have doubled in price if you try to find one in the used market these days.

These were all to promote Godzilla Minus One way back when. Since then Gojira has won an Oscar!

   

Okay. That's what I would have written 9 months ago. I need to get back into the swing of things considering the Countdown to Halloween 2024 is starting next month!

I just returned from a whirlwind tour of Toronto and spent three weeks cataloguing a ton of comics, and readying them for sale. I did come across a box of Tick Toys! What ticks me off is that I can't keep them in my friend's basement much longer and need to sell them.

The only place that showed any interest was The Silver Snail. They don't buy toys per se yet were willing to consider taking them off my hands. If I had access to eBay, that would be the way to go. Or could I get them shipped here? Hmmm.

Here Comes Sanda Claus!

The other day when I was downtown, I happened to notice a new Godzilla Gatcha! I held off buying them for I knew my Go-to-Gatcha-Guy would have them. (At 5 bucks a pop, I couldn't afford to get duplicates.)

And...he was sold out the same day they came out. So I went to a Gatcha centre down the street and tried my luck. Woohoo! I scored 4/4 with NO doubles!

So that's the Godzilla from G-1.0.

Gigan.

Gaira and

Sanda from War of the Gargantuas. These guys rarely get any merchandise.

Here's the lowdown on these two.

I decided to get creative and turn Sanda into a Santa. My hat didn't turn out too well.

This is a better version.

Gaira would make a good Krampus.

The Gatcha place downtown, I later discovered has a set of the figures for sale in the store above it. I did not know this store existed though if you have a hankering for puzzles, they have you covered.

I almost bought this.

While I'm reporting on Godzilla, one of my roving reporters noted this festive Kaiju.

In the spirit of Chibi-Gojira, this book looks cute.

I need to get back to some Christmas shows. Maybe tomorrow.
