Happy birthday to me...sort of...

Well, I'm now 33 years old. Damn... At least I can still lie to myself for another 20 days. The reason: I didn't find out that my birthday is January 9th until I was 28 years old. I laways thought my birthday was January 29, as it is listed on my birth certificate. Weird, huh?

Anyways, my birthday present to myself came in the mail today. I finally got the Pushead-designed 'Hot Fudge' version of the Damnedron. This is my first Rumble Monster and I never relealized that these figures are larger than the Secret Base and Gargamel 'Fight Figures'. I love this figure and can't wait to get more Rumble Monsters! [I did pre-order the Frank Kozik-designed 'Murder' version of the Pharaos figure, and those look amazing!]



I did my first toy trade through the Skullbrain Message Board, unfortunately, I was delayed in sending my toy to the great people that I traded with, due to the untimely and unnecessary death of 'Asian' Dave. They sent me the awesome 'Silver' version of the Skullman, for which I am sending them the 'Bloody Halloween' version of the Skullman. Some other people have given me crap that I should have gotten more for mine, since it is limited to 33 pieces, but who cares! I got a Skullman that I needed, and they got one that they needed...deal worked out for me. RFSO!

In other news, I am working on the design for a Circus Punk custom that I want to do, but I'm sort of nervous that I may not have the skills neccesary to do it the way that I want. I love the Universal Monsters and I'm trying to use that as the theme. I'll post the progress as I go (like last time), but I won't be starting it for another month or so.
