Hepcat Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Well I already have a shot of the Terrytoons game in inventory: That and the Casper game gave me the inspiration to pick up more board games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Very nice. I never realized that Tom Terrific was part of the Terrytoons group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 (edited) Hey Hepcat you would'nt know where to get these two items mint in box would ya' The Great Garloo I'd be there already if I did! I have neither of those two items. Toys even higher on my list of priorities are a Mad, Mad, Mad Scientist Laboratory, King Zor, Odd Ogg, the Ideal Haunted House Game and the Hamilton's Invaders sets.

Ted Knight Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Simply awesome room, Hepcat! Nothing better than listening to good music on great hifi while reading some comics. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 The stereo is in a different room than my comics, which are fortunately readily portable. Here are a few more items in my comic room. First is a signed and numbered Neal Adams print: Here is a reproduction of a Vampirella cover done in chalk by a local Toronto artist that I purchased at a comic con in 1983 or so: Here is the original movie poster artwork for the 1972 rerelease of the "Song of the South": Finally, here's a stained glass window of Brer Fox and Flower that I commissioned for the door between my comic room and the upper porch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hepcat Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 (edited) Here I am watching Balticboy get out the dice for a round of board games. I have to watch him closely to make sure he's not substituting loaded dice. He's like that. This gorgeous Man from UNCLE game just arrived on Friday: I had to rearrange the shelf containing my board games slightly to make room for it: Edited April 25, 2011 by Hepcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvelfangirl Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 How do you find those board games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Hake's Auctions and Ebay have been my two main sources but not surprisingly games in unused condition just don't show up that often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toysmania Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Woah you have an awesome collection there Hepcat! So you only buy unused games? Anyhow, the Tom and Jerry game looks unique! How'd ya play it? Try and spin and connect the right colors according to what you spin? First person to reach the rug wins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hepcat Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 (edited) Here are my wallets including two of the Standard Plastics monster wallets that came out in 1964 or so: Unfortunately I don't have the Wolfman-Creature one that I earned for selling fifteen newspapers one Saturday morning in the spring of 1964. I had to sell one to my father and buy two of the papers myself to earn the prize but it was worth it! And here I am with some of my Kenner Presto Sparkle Paint Sets: Edited April 25, 2011 by Hepcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 So you only buy unused games? Yes. A technique to help contain the growth of my nevertheless burgeoning collection. Anyhow, the Tom and Jerry game looks unique! How'd ya play it? Try and spin and connect the right colors according to what you spin? First person to reach the rug wins? You're part right. The pieces are moved to the closest space of the colour spun, but the objective of the game is to collect three pieces of food from under Tom's watchful eye. Tom can be strategically placed by lucky players to make it more difficult for other players to collect the food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toysmania Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Woah interesting! Haha so you buy new games and open them up? Do you play them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hepcat Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Games over thirty years old are typically not shrink wrapped so opening them is no problem. I look for games in which any cardboard tokens, markers, playing pieces, etc. have not been punched out of the sheet. Here are a few shots of miscellaneous cool items before I move on to my model kits: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
