Great custom work as usual, Bill. I'm always impressed by your skills...
I bought my third and final Ikea Detolf display case yesterday and have arranged one entire case to house figures only (I need another Target spice shelf and I wish I had a fourth GI Joe sign from their toy department). My wife hates it but this really is about it, I'm afraid. After reading some of the Hasbro Q&A deals yesterday it seems like the movie stuff will not only squeeze out the classic stuff this year but it'll pretty much be here to stay in 2009 and beyond... Hasbro pretty much said they are doing the internet 7-packs to save store space for movie crap. Too bad. Maybe now my wife will see that my little hobby is on its way out... :(
It was a good two year run while it lasted. I remember reading the first news stories about the 25th anniversary figures and wishing it would stretch longer and I guess Hasbro at least gave us more of a good thing (which was more than I thought we'd get to begin with).
