I'd order them chronologically by first appearance, but I think that's the OCD talking.

Hulk, Spider-Man, Iron Man, Dr. Strange, Daredevil

yes Nathan. You are legally bound to the order as described in the Kenner Convention of '84. If you ignore this treaty and break protocol, you'll be responsible for  a breach in international geek diplomacy... Which might endanger millions of collectibles!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought you might like to know about that one, Chief. Wasn't sure if you were aware of the release next month. The company doing it is known for their "man in suit" replicas. I love the disclaimer on the ad: "Does not include lighting, voice function, or suit actor doll figure to go inside. Just Robby!"

Received this picture from Fred Barton, "the Robot Man". His latest offering.

Fred is the guy from whom I bought Robbie, Gort and C-3PO. Like them, this is life-sized.

Aside from the fact I started out this year by spending FAR too much money on DAN DARE originals, I honestly would not have anywhere to PUT one of these!

You don't really need a refrigerator, do you?  I'm sure the Robocop would slide nicely into that spot...

Funny thing is, Fred had contacted me a while back to ask if I would be interested in selling the Threepio he'd sold me. Seems he had a customer. I said no, but after spending all that money on DAN DARE the thought flitted thru my mind. Then I saw RoboCop, and thought Maybe I could trade…

Then my brain started working and I realized that would rather defeat the purpose!!

Star Wars has been so tarnished that I can´t bring myself to buy anything from that franchise.

The Droids, however, preserve some purity. That C3P0 shines, JB! Don´t even think about it!
