End of 2016

I completely procrastinated getting this blog post written, but I just wanted to share my last few ACO acquisitions of 2016 before the new year gets too far along.

I recently shared two Mini Kubrey figures that I added to my collection. Literally a couple of days after making that blog post, another one arrived! This was a completely unexpected gift from a friend of mine & a VERY welcome addition to my collection! I had been eager to own this blank version, but it was a New York Comic Con exclusive & honestly never expected to hold it in my hands. Thankfully, my friends often prove me wrong!

I've also added the 'masked' Alex DeLarge Pop! Vinyl to my collection. I had a friend inform me a few stores on ebay were letting them go cheap, so I grab one. As per tradition when it comes to Funko toys, the quality is a little lacking. There's a small paint fault on it's nose that bothers the hell out of me.... I'm considering buying another. For now, I hope to stumble across the OG version the wild somewhere.

The last addition to my ACO horde last year, was a X-Mas gift from my Dad & his wife. I had yet to own a audio copy of ACO, so this was a unexpected & greatly appreciated gift! I haven't listened to it yet(working through other books I got for X-Mas currently), but I'm eager to delve into it!

It was a good year for new additions to my collection. Let's hope the new year brings more of the same!

miniKUBREY - Monolith - Codeczombie

To my great surprise, Codeczombie started working on mini versions of his Kubrey sculpt a few months ago. I was so excited, but had to wait patiently for an online release(with one or two conventions releases to tease me in the meantime). The day finally arrived & Codeczombie released 3 different versions! Monolith(black), Redrum(red) & Typewriter(yellow).

Being poor, I had to settle on buying only one. I went with the Monolith version because currently I'm indulging a 2001: A Space Odyssey obsession, also who doesn't like black? I'm seriously considering saving up for the other two while they're still available.

Perhaps due to my continued patronage, Codeczombie send me an extra mini Kubrey! It was a fantastic surprise when I opened my package! I've been told it was intended to be orange, but as it was a colour trial, it turned out fleshy. Either way, it's a one-off & it's a wonderful new addition to my Kubrey collection!

I'm a huge fan of Codeczombies work. His skill with design & the excution of his ideas amazes me! I'm so proud to be the owner of some of his work & remain very excited to see what he creates in the future!

The new minis have found a home in my cabinet with my full-sized blank Kubrey. A lovely contrast of colours, that I can only hope to add more to in the future!

The mini Kubreys are still available, you can buy them here: miniKUBREY

I honestly couldn't recommend these little chunks of resin more! For only €25.00 they're a total bargain.
