As a distraction from recent events, I've elected to participate in this minor challenge to create new characters—one for each day of January—released a few days at a time. For days seven through 10, I did these characters for Star Frontiers (Cook, TSR Hobbies, et al., 1982), one for each of the four playable character species (human, dralasite, vrusk and yazirian).
My first introduction to Science fiction as a child was seeing this copy of Heinlien on Dad's bookshelf. It admired that cover for a couple of years before Dad would let me read it...
welp, this is a first for me, I did not get enough corn starch worked into the caulk. The inside did not cure, and now I have a mess. A skin of cured material, and a goopy inside.
This is the Robby Actionfigure from the 50th Anniversary Forbidden Planet tin. his arms move, his torso twists. head does not seem to move, but I'm not going to force it,
So, Deb found a gift she'd forgotten about buying last spring, I guess she had it hid somewhere..anyway, she put a ribbon on it and brought it out last night. I'm so excited! the tin alone is beautiful...but the goodies are sweet!
