Goodwill + Halloween Shopping

There´s a Goodwill outside of town that´s only opened on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, so we decided to go there yesterday to check it out.

They had changed their opening hours so when we got there they had already been open for 2 hours, which usually means that all the good stuff are gone.

But thankfully I was able to find a few goodies :)

I had the Stephen King book already but only in paperback and the Evil Dead 2 was a different release from the one I have.

I picked up a couple of other horror movies as well that I will try to re-sell later on.

On the way back we had to swing by the grocery store and they had Finally started to unpack their Halloween things.

I always try to pick up a few new things around Halloween, but I want decor that I can display all year around.

Horror isn't a Halloween thing for me its a 365 days a year thing :D

I´ll get a few more pictures up on the main part of the site as soon as I can.

Mail Day / Store Pick Ups

I've been really busy over the past weekend so I never got the time to post this.

Last Friday was payday which meant I could finally go and pick up my movies in town :)
and I got the movies I ordered online that same day as well, or technically the day before but I didn't have the time to pick them up until the day after.

I´m still waiting on my new Freddy Figure to arrive, the release date still just states September so I don´t know.

But anyway here are all the new movies:

This first one was a totally unexpected find.

I went to pick up the movies I ordered at Kvarn Video (Best Video store in town) and they have a huge "used" section that I can never pass up on :)

Really didn't expect to find this awesome boxset there tho, I wanted to get it when it was first released but for some reason I never did.

The box is limited to 1000 Copies but unfortunately the certificate was lost.

Anyway moving on:

Sometimes They Come Back... For More, Scanners and Black Cat were the ones I ordered online.

When I got home I realized that I already had an Arrow release of Spirits of the Dead (Sagor Från De Döda) but that´s okay.

I Definitely have my work cut out for me, removing all the plastic and getting the movies into the shelves before the next package arrives :D

Hope You had a great weekend!

   

Mail Day - Unboxing

I received two packages from Ginza this week, one of them was a package that I had been waiting for forever.
Really happy that it showed up finally.

Here´s package no.1

This was the one I had been waiting a couple of weeks for, it was a special order but still when it says 3-6 days its kind of a bummer when it takes 3 times that long to get it.

Anyway no need to dwell on that, it showed up and that´s the important part.

And here´s the beauty that was in the package, I don´t think I've seen this movie before.

It´s released by SRS Cinema, they usually release pretty awesome rare and gory movies.

So I definitely have high hopes for this one.

Next up Package No.2

The movies in this package were more of a random buy.

I usually go through their page once in a while and just pick out some horror movies that I don´t already have, pretty much just randomly choosing a couple.

And here are the ones I ended up with this time :)

All and all these are the ones I got:

• Teenage Slumber Party Nightmare
• L.A. Zombie
• Otto; or, Up With the Dead
• The Strange Colour of Your Body´s Tears
• Remains
• The Incident

This will be the last Mail Day unboxing until the end of the month (I think)

Horror Hunt - September 10th

One of the Goodwill shops just outside of town had their reopening last Saturday, so we decided to go there and check if they had any new Horror Movies.

I bought the last ones they had when they were shutting the store for renovation, but I thought it would be worth checking out anyway.

I did find 4 Movies and 1 Stephen King Book.

The place was packed with people so I didn´t check the movies as thoroughly as I usually do.

When I got home I noticed that Captivity and Organizm are both Asian knock-offs.

I really hate that people leave movies like that at the goodwill.

I Don´t want any knock-off movies near my collection.

I only have myself to blame this time, I should have looked closer at the disc and the cover, but since there were so many people my anxiety was kicking in and I just wanted to get out of there. 

At least The Fear and Dreams in the Witch-House were totally legit copies, and finally a hardcover version of Wizards and Glass.

I probably won´t go out on another Horror Hunt until I get my new paycheck in about a week.

But I do have a few Mailday unboxing posts coming up :)

Horror Hunt - September 6th

I should have posted this a couple of days ago, but I got caught up adding the movies to the main part of the site.

It´s proven to be a bigger task than I expected, but I will get the site done eventually :P

Anyway we went out for a ride last Tuesday, we had some grocery shopping to take care off
but there is this place right by one of the grocery stores called "Butiksloppis" it´s pretty much a consignment store.
People rent a cabinet for a week or however long they want and the store takes care of the sales.

I have been able to find some awesome movies there in the past, but not this day sadly.

There were plenty of movies just not any that I needed this time.

But I did find something almost as amazing and totally unexpected.

This little guy.

This is a Kidrobot Lootcrate exclusive Alien Plush Facehugger.

I don´t know why someone would drop that off there but all I can say is Thanks :P

I looked it up online once I got back home and it goes for anywhere between $10-15 and I payed $1.17 for this one if I´m remembering it correctly.

This is what I love the most about the consignment stores and the goodwill stores, you never know what you are going to find.

Anyway I´m off to drop some Fish Fry off at the Pet Store and I might swing by the flea market on my way back if there´s time.

Take Care!

Titans Vinyl Figures - Alien Nostromo Edition

I finally managed to find two of these figures a while back, or I should say I managed to find them for a price that wasn´t completely insane.

I was actually pleasantly surprised, the Vinyl Figures themselves were very well made and the details were incredible.

They come in a "blind bag" just like the Funko Mystery minis, some people make it a thing to whey the box itself to find out what figure is in the box.

For me that kinda takes away the fun in buying a mystery box.

Of course I had my hopes on a certain figure, or figures.

But being a huge fan of the Alien franchise, any figure would be a win.

Here´s a list of the figures that´s in the set, and the rarity of each character.

• Ripley 2/20
• Big Chap 2/20
• Kane Facehugger 2/20
• Face Hugger 2/20
• Ripley Spacesuit 2/20
• Kane Chestburst 2/20
• Egg 1/20
• Dallas 1/20
• Ash 1/20
• Brett 1/20
• Parker 1/20
• Lambert 1/20

In Addition to these 12 figures there´s also 4 Mystery figures

• Ash 1/40
• Ripley 1/40
• Big Chap 1/40
• Egg 1/40

 And these are the two that I got :)

It must have been my lucky day cause I got two of the figures I wanted the most :)

I wasn´t able to film the unboxing this time but I did make a quick little slideshow video of the unboxing, so if you wanna see more of the figures just press play below.
