Frankenweenie VHS

I have been really busy with work and school but luckily I had time to visit couple flea markets and second hand shops last week. I found Tim Burton's original Frankenweenie VHS for 1€! I don't think this short film has been ever made into a DVD and since the movie was made in 1984 this could be quite rare, at least in Amazon someone is selling this for $35 and in eBay for $13 + shipping. Also this VHS is in good condition, of course I don't have a VHS player anymore so I have no idea if it actually works. Cool piece in my collection anyway.

Sally the Ragdoll from France

I just came back from Colmar, France. I spent almost a week there as a part of a school project. Nice trip and Colmar was so beautiful!

But back to this blog's topic. While shopping in Colmar I found this little souvenier shop that also had movie stuff and figures. There were mostly stuff from the Tintin, but also few movie figures including this Sally bobblehead. Of course I had to buy it as a souvenier for myself.
    It is made by Funko and it's not the best bobblehead figures there are made from The Nightmare Before Christmas movie, but it's not the worst one either. This cost 27€ which is a little bit more than I am usually willing to pay for figures, but I bought it as a souvenier so it was fine and I haven't bought Tim Burton stuff for a long time so...

 

P.S. I also uploaded more pictures of the Frankenweenie comicbook in my last post as requested, go check them out!

Frankenweenie comicbook

I got this Frankenweenie comicbook as a gift some time ago, I just forgot to put it here. I actually didn't know this was a comicbook before I had it in my hands. It was a very pleasant surprise though because I love comicbooks!

Ichabod Crane

So today I came back home from Budapest, Hungary. The flight left really early in the morning, so I was back at home around mid-day. I actually didn't find that much things to buy from Budapest so we went shopping a little because my husband went to buy this PS3 game he had been wanting for a long time. So we headed to Puolenkuun pelit game store and there I saw this Sleepy Hollow figurine. It had been there for ages and finally they had reduced the price a bit so I bought it.
     The figure is made in China by Medicom Toy Co. so the quality is good but I wouldn't say "ultra detail" as the package tells you...

Stick Boy's Festive Season

Once again I got a new item for my collection. This one was a present as well as many other books I have gotten lately. So this is The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy and Other Stories - Stick Boy's Festive Season -edition harcover book. Yes, it is exactly the same book as the other two that I have, only the cover is a bit different and it has this extra title. But as a collector I had to have it anyway.
     The pages of this book are the exact same as the other versions, so I won't add photos here. Only the back page of the book with description of Tim Burton with a sketch.

New mini figures!

I have been buying only comics, CD and vinyls lately so I haven't had anything to post here, sorry about that. Anyway about a week ago I got message on Facebook from one person who offered me two The Nightmare Before Christmas trading figures. I didn't have those already so yes, I bought them from her. The package came today so here are some pictures. Figures are surprisingly quite good quality and detailed. I already have Lock & Barrel from the same series but they are not that well made.

This one is Oogie Boogie and the other one Dr. Finkelstein can be found from this post HERE

Oogie Boogie -trading figure

  
 Actually I do have bit of a crisis with my collection/collecting because I realized that I can't keep getting more and more stuff forever. Someday the whole apartment will be full of my figures, comics and other stuff so unless I buy a huge mansion (which isn't going to happen) there will be a limit to my collection and it scares me a bit. 


What will I be if I can't keep collecting stuff for the rest of my life?


P.S I would really love to hear and see pictures about your collections (don't have to be about Tim Burton) so please feel free to link them below :)

Frankenweenie soundtrack

Sorry I have been away for awhile. I was studying abroad for a month so I didn't have a chance to update my blogs at all. But while I was away I got this Frakenweenie soundtrack with music by Danny Elfman. I already got the one called Frankenweenie: Unleashed so now I have 'em both.
