Fair enough. I’m the little dude on the right.

That's amazing!!! Closest thing for me was going on the original Jaws Ride in Universal Studio in California as a kid. So terrifying, yet exciting. I can still remember it clearly to this day.

Congrats Vander and HappyBoy (again)!

Yes! I did that when I was 10 years old! Loved it!

The closest guesses were:

punkg42 - $1027
HAPPYBOY - $1100
greygoose - $1230

Wow Dude!!! May as well keep saving them for a different vehicle. I'd get a DeLorean
if I'd saved that many points. I seem to redeem them every year for a deep discount on a Hot Toys fig or even a free Hot Toys fig.

Of course that only gets you 4 Hot Toys figures at todays prices.

That’s the problem. The longer you save them the higher the prices get so you don’t get as much when you finally redeem them.

 

[Cicada17]

I'm seriously inspired by GZL! I think I'm going to save RP for Hot Toys Infinity War Thanos.

My advice, when you finally decide on using all those RP's make sure it's on something that you've seen in-hand pics of. Don't risk it all on a preorder.

It seems almost planned...

I was going through my parents photo albums and when I found this I snapped a pic of it. I figured why not share lol. They also had large Ghostbusters scene art panels the American Werewolf in London animatronic bust. Cool exhibit in Columbus, OH per my Dad.

COSI Center of Science and Industry in Columbus Ohio 1989?

I REMEMBER THAT EXHIBIT.

I actually saw it at the Science Museum of Minnesota, probably a year or two before it made it's way to Ohio, and it was a pretty formative experience. To this day, I often cite that afternoon in downtown St. Paul as one of the main reasons I collect film-related posters and 1:6 figures; I can't afford to house an original American Werewolf in London animatronic head in a giant glass case, nor can I ogle the actual matte painting of the Death Star II's landing bay on a daily basis but I can appreciate the craftsmanship of these 12" recreations and hang a print or two in the ol' office.

For the record, the traveling exhibit was called Special Effects: The Science of Movie and Television Magic and if I knew at 10 what I know now, I'd have appreciated it even more. The iconic artistry on display was off the charts.

Congrats, HAPPYBOY!

I don't think all my reward points total since they have given them out equal that much.

This year's Mort Kit:



All Mort all the time: Sticker, Standee, Mini Metal Sign and Scratch Card!

Quick heads up - there are only 15 kits this year! Actually it's down to 14 now since Madcow won his, so if you want one be prepared to go all out!


There might be another item, but it's something I've never attempted before so we'll see how it turns out. Might get pushed to next year, we'll see...

HOLY CRAP! When you said it's a lot, I figured you meant over $200 or so. I never imagined anything over $500, let alone $1000!!! I kinda wish I had saved all of mine. Then perhaps I'd get the lifesize Yoda some day...

That kit is amazing. Also, vander, how did you make the mini metal sign?

CONTEST TIME!!!

The winner is playing for a digital code for The Wolf Man!!!

The code will work on Vudu or iTunes. I believe I will then be able to pick a second winner, for the platform not used by the first winner (meaning, if the winner selects iTunes, I can then give away the UV code, and vice versa)

THE ANSWER MUST BE PM'D TO ME, AND STATE IF THEY WANT UV OR ITUNES IN THE SUBJECT!!!
If my mailbox is full, then I have already received enough correct answers. I am going to limit my digital prizes to one per person, so if you won a digital prize from me already this year, please do not enter.

And now... to the contest! Somewhere in this thread I have hidden a picture of a wolf man of sorts (in one of my prior posts). PM me the post number for that image. You might come across an image for a future contest, so you may want to take some notes if you see any odd pictures in my posts...


EDIT: WINNER IS THE BOOT!!! I just remembered the UV part was used already for this one, so there is only one winner. But my next 3 digital movie contests will have 2 winners, and then I have more contests for other stuff.
