I was given a collection of Strawberry Shortcake figures to photograph.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is a great movie, like seeing a comic book come to life.

the dailypic 3332 yr10 045 Help Hulk Hope
Sometimes I take these for me, these two figures have been on a shelf for a while, sitting just like this. Today I passed them and thought, ‘ha, Hulk is looking for Obi-Wan’. No idea why today it dawned on me, but it did, so here it is Hulk doing a Princess Leia impression. They all can’t be winners, but this one make me laugh I can hear him saying “Help Hulk Obi-Wan Kenobi. You Hulk only hope.”

To the best roommates out there… I will not admit how much time I just spent looking to see if they have last names. It turns out they do not. Their address is 123 Sesame St. They live in a basement apartment since I was a kid I pictured it being on the top floor. Just past Gordan’s place, in the back above the play area, across from Hooper’s store. My life is a lie. I need time to deal with this new knowledge.

I found these weeks back, and then it never rained, until this morning… I got soaked taking this photo. Lying on the cement patio so I could get that reflection. Right after I got it, it stopped raining.

This is the cross over I want, no I demand to see. It would be epic. For those who do not agree with me, I have some Chewieless Care Bears below.

The thought was Minion would be hanging out in a puddle since it is raining. It led to some complications, one the Minion floats, so he was not cooperative at all. Then the shots I got were kind of boring, the puddles were dirty, the reflection was not as I liked. I settled, see below. I was going to post one and then I saw the mini Barbie on the shelf, yes I have a mini Barbie on a shelf, no I am not sure why. So, I figured new photo, they that turned into its won challenge, getting the Minion to stand, to be at the same height so they could hold hands, what would the background be, Barbie does not stand at all. So, a few rocks from Iceland, used Gum to stand Barbie, a notepad, a wallet and some change to prop things up and here we are, the Beach Date.

I have no idea who these guys are other than what I read on the packaging, it was a suggestions from a few months back. The PJMasks figures have been sitting in the studio waiting there turn. #ToyWednesday is here so today was their shot… I think it is a Disney JR. Show, superheroes in PJs.

19 years ago I bought these figures… today I took them out of the package. McFarlane Beatles Yellow Submarine Action Figures from 1999. I bought them at Rubber Chicken Comics, I remember they ordered them for me, I took them home in the box they were shipped in. I then moved them to my first house, then to my second then to the studio. Today I was looking for something else and came across them, still in that original shipping box, still in their packages. A quick check online to see they are worth about what they were 19 years ago, 1 minute later, 4 opened packages and John Paul George and Ringo are under the lights and posing. These things suck to stand, top heavy, awkward feet, George was the only one to cooperate, in the dailypic he is actually offering enough support to keep all the rest from falling backwards. Not sure what my end goal was when I bought them, I am smart enough to know I will never get rich collecting toys, but you think I would have ripped open those boxes sooner. I think this leaves me with one “toy” left in original packaging, a first wave Lego dual pack of Slave 1 and a Land Cruiser. I am one slow weekend from cracking those open too.

A simple battle, that movie ‘The Dog Who Stopped the War’ popped in my head the other day. Not even sure why, have not seen it in decades. It was a favorite when I was a kid, one of the cable channels played it on a loop in the winter. Incredibly slow and depressing, anyone remember it? Poor dog. Stupid kids.
