James and the Giant Peach PVC Figurine Collection: Grass Hopper & Centipede

Something new again!

James and the Giant Peach PVC Figurine Collection: Grass Hopper & Centipede (JUN Planning Co.). Made in China in 1996. I bought this via eBay UK for about 40€ including shipping. The item has some damage on the cardboard packing, but it's unopened and in good condition.

There is also second set available of these. The other one includes James, Glowworm and Earthworm. That's next on my purchase list :D

Beetlejuice clutch

This one is also an older item but I hadn't posted it here earlier because it is not official movie merch.

Beetlejuice clutch by DoGo. I saw this at a second hand shop many years ago and I just had to buy it even though I knew I would never use this. This cost something between 6-15€, cannot remember how much exactly.



Edward Scissorhands DVD

Back again!
Been really busy with everything else again, but finally I had some extra money to invest on my collection and also now I have time to update older items that have been missing from here.

So since new purchases are still on their way, first some older items.

Edward Scissorhands DVD with Finnish cover. Nothing special about this one, just basic DVD purchased a long time ago and cannot remember the price anymore, but value nowadays is just about 2-5€.

Voodoo Girl Book & Figure Box Set

FINALLY I GOT IT! The last Tragic Toys item that was missing from my collection for ages is now finally mine!

So yesterday I came back hom from a mini vacation in Turku and on my way home went to pick up some packages from post office and there is finally was:

Voodoo Girl Book & Figure Box Set by Dark Horse in 2004. Set includes a Voodoo Girl figure and The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy hardcover book. I bought this via eBay from the USA. It was expensive but I had to have it. In total with selling price, shipping and customs I paid about 65€ for this one.

But now my Tragic Toys collection is complete!

Charlie and The Chocolate Factory soundtrack 12" Vinyl

I bought this Charlie and The Chocolate Factory 12" vinyl via eBay. The seller was Rarewaves outlet from UK and I really CANNOT recommend this seller. To keep this short and about the item as this should be - I ended up paying more to get this vinyl than the asking price originally was and seller stopped communicating complitely. I was lucky to at least get the item at the of it all.

But back to the item.
Charlie and The Chocolate Factory 12" vinyl by Warner Bros. Entertainment/Silva Screen Records in 2005. This is an EU version and there are 2 white/pink vinyls. At the end of it all I had to pay almost 30€ for this, eventhough the listing price including shipping was around 22€.





Big Fish Soundtrack 12" Vinyl

Big Fish Soundtrack 12" Vinyl was the second one I found from Levykauppa Äx record store in Helsinki. This is 180 gram audiophile vinyl including 2 records and a 4-page booklet. Made in 2003 by Sony Music Entertainment, EU version. I paid 35€ for this one.





Edward Scissorhands soundtrack 12" vinyl

Back again! Just a couple of new items since last Autumn, but I will try and start posting here more often. Still many old items that are not posted here.

So in November I visited in Helsinki and went to Levykauppa Äx record store and found TWO Tim Burton movie soundtracks on vinyl from there! I have already (almost) every soundtrack on CD so now I have been focusing on vinyls but these are difficult to find.

Edward Scissorhands soundtrack 12" vinyl was one of them. This is not original version, but the remastered version from 2015 by Geffen Records. Just a basic edition with two sides. I paid about 17€ for this.
