I like the simplicity of that design. Sometimes less is more.

Bill, I would have taken you for a stakor, not a stakee....

Well, in anycase I would love to be "Slayed" by her if you take my meaning...

[Dan]

Love it!

Got two Easton Press books today; TOTAL RECALL signed by The Terminator guy, and FLOWERS FOR ALGERNON, one of 600 copies signed by Daniel Keyes:

Flowers for Algernon is one of my most favorite stories ever. Both the original short story that ran in F&SF and the book. A simply marvelous read.

[Stockerlone]

Congrats for the nice new stuff !!!
Is there a diff. between the JoyRide Christine and this auto World Christine?

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

Sorry, I have no idea what the JoyRide Christine is!

[Bad Penny]

Sorry, I have no idea what the JoyRide Christine is!

Joyride/ERTL version - same thing I suppose (I'd be interested in knowing whether this variant is different too)

Hmmm, Bond vs. Buffy, good idea...

...anyway, got my A STIR OF ECHOES lettered edition (1 of 75) from Gauntlet today. Comes with a CD of Matheson reading selected passages; the CD is also signed by him. Also included was the Man With a Club chapbook.

Nice additions mate- Gauntlet do some quality publications, do they not?

Very cool A Stir Of Echoes! If its 1 of 75 lettered copies are they triple lettered?

No idea why this joyride christine is so expensive....

I only know all the diff. Frightning Lightning lim. Christine´s...

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

I looked at that auction; they seem to be the same but the one I have does not have working headlights. I paid $75 for it.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

The A STIR OF ECHOES I was sent is lettered UU, and I bought it direct from Gauntlet. If they are triple lettered that would mean he has 31 left.

Got this today; proof for ROBERT BLOCH: APPRECIATIONS OF THE MASTER:

[Ben Staad]

Nice new items. What King story (or contribution) is in Robert Bloch book?

[The Library Policeman]

Very cool

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

King wrote a two page appreciation of Bloch. It's interesting and heartfelt.

DANGEROUS VISIONS 35th Anniversary signed hardcover edition:

[Dan]

I think my favorite part of your collection is that every time you get a book it seems to also come with a toy!

[Lurker]

Agree! Just saw DM2 so now I understand those blasters.
Can't wait to see the toys when the Minion movie comes out.

[ur2ndbiggestfan]

I recommend buying the Minion Dave and Gru Collector's Edition electronic toys. They are about $50 each and have moving eyes, hands, etc. When Wall-E was released I went crazy on all the toys, including buying the Ultimate Wall-E for about $175 if I recall correctly. Now they go on E-bay for about $800 and sometimes higher. Mine is still in the box or MIB as they say. And the other toys from that movie also command higher prices. I never buy these things with the intention of selling them, but I'm glad I get them when they come out so I don't have to pay premium prices for them later.
