Qbert is AWESOME. You should definitely be playing the game. Stop wasting your time chatting here and go play (you can come back, we like you and all that girlie stuff).

lol, I plan on having the best Q Bert collection on earth..It probably wouldn't be that difficult. I mean, who the @!#?@!? collects Q Bert??? (obligatory "Q*Bert style" swear word added in)

Here's my latest vintage purchase. I don't ever remember seeing it before, but I always dug Twiki and Buck Rogers and there was never that much merch for it at the time.

I got this off ebay for a great price. Its an HG Toys signal flasher. It's some sort of Morse Code signal device. You push the button on his belt and the center "Dr. Theopolis" disk lights up. You can move the red disk to open up and show the light. On the back battery cover it lists the Morse Code alphabet.

I used to have a 12" Star Wars "Sale of the Droids" shelf in my toy collection that featured some in scale "guest star" robots. I thought Twiki might fit in if/when I have the space to display it again.

That figure looks sweet! Just saw an auction with him in it the other day. Let me see if I can go find it...

LOL.

Thanks, Ben. It's great to be appreciated.

Loving the packaging artwork of Buck's head. I've seen few other Twiki toys aside from the Mego figures. Nice find, Julius!

Awesome pickup, Dan! That's the first time I've seen this toy. Cool!

Peace,

Second that sentiment. Twiki is awesome. Great find & score! Biddy, biddy, biddy...

This is a picture of my old 12" Purchase of the Droids shelf that Twiki will join someday.

Not in the same league as a lot of you fellas, but here's one I've been wanting / watching for a while now and finally got. Very happy that Pegasus and Perseus are in really good shape.

Nice score Dan! They look to be in excellent condition too. I was checking out that line, since I'm not really that familiar with it, and found this review of that set:

A "new" purchase, but not a "vintage" item.

It's a metal sign perpetual calendar.

Peace,
