Hmm, I'll have to try that spot-lighting thing sometime.
You have so much cool music equipment there; I feel like your crew could have a tremendously fun band if they all got together. How to choose who would be in it though...?

Yeah, I went through a "a band might be fun" phase a month or so ago. The novelty of the idea has already worn off, but I still have some more junk on the way via eBay that hasn't yet arrived. I really gotta stop buying stuff on a whim.

Yeah, she's actually already a member of a band called Vagabonds' House, with two other characters.

17 April - Head Under Glass
Kinda reminds me of a 19th-century post-mortem photograph, or maybe of an incorruptible saint's body preserved in a cathedral or monastery.
YMToys YMT029C action figure head. I don't remember why I bought it. It won't be around much longer, so I guess in a way it is a post-mortem portrait; or, at least, a farewell image.
They're not dolls, they're action figures!

If you have no use for it and can’t even remember why you got it, not much point in keeping it. It does look effective, though, like a prop in a horror movie,

Interesting effect. Sounds like maybe it would be helpful to write down when you buy things, and why.... Would that provide any inspiration for following through with plans?

It does look like a figure / portrait you would see in a Victorian Mourning Brooch. All it needs is a wreath of hair surrounding it, and it wold be perfect!

Actually, I just need to stop buying things. Things, things, and more things. Too many things already! Just one more little piece and I'll stop, at least for a while, I tell myself, but nooo...!

What's that? You want to know what's in the boxes?
Maybe we'll find out tomorrow. Or next week. Or... sometime.
Maybe.

Tonner was a pretty big name in the fashion doll world for a while. They also made extremely realistic baby dolls.

Yeah, I'm sometimes surprised... or horrified... myself. I often wish I had limited myself to one or two lines rather than picking up anything that caught my fancy.

19 April - MGAE Novi Stars Nita Lite
Nita Lite is my favorite of the Novi Stars releases because the figure most closely resembles the traditional or classic idea of a "Martian."

They're still putting the pieces back together after that unfortunate incident in Roswell in 1947.
