As we've been packing/unpacking boxes there are items I forgot about...

Though the geekiest thing in the house would probably be the Galactus Hero Clix.

Or maybe the Zim mints.

Until I stupidly gave it away years ago, it would have been the Legion Of Substitute Heroes special - signed by the editor.




Now? Well, the one single Heroclix that I have paid money for is the Mad Thinker's Awesome Android. That's pretty damn geeky.

Geekiest thing Sheila owns? Her husband.

Oh dear , rather spoiled for choice here.
Maybe an  AD&D Fiend Folio manual from 1979 ?

Oddly enough I can so see that.

The poor girl ;)

Galactus isn't my geekiest possession.

First copy of Warhammer 3rd Edition released worldwide signed and annotated to prove the fact.    My dad got it for me years ago when he was at GW HQ one day.

Maybe galactus can count as the biggest geekiest thing you own?

Her 2 videos of Red Dwarf out-takes come a very close second.

I only have the one video of Red Dwarf out-takes...

Entire collection of Mansun singles, probably.

that's not geeky Alan, just a sign of verrry poor taste in music ;)

I have a Gen 13 wrist watch and some fridge magnet's too.

My ridiculous collection of Wildhearts CDs (ask Russell, he's witnessed them taking over my living room).

Being slightly obsessive, I even bought Japanese versions when I was over there, even though I already owned all the songs.

When I was in the US I very nearly picked up the Sarah Rainmaker action figure doll.

Rainmaiker, nice. I must admit to being a bit of an early Wildstorm geek, I have a set of mini standee's, a bunch of those old Wildstorm portfolio's (if anyone has the Team 7 portfolo let me know) and the Fairchild Statue too.

I did spend a rediculous amount of money on a signed litho of the cover of X-Men 1 by Jim Lee, signed by Lee, Williams, Chiodo and Clairmont. I wish I had bought it back in the day for thirty quid.

I don't have it myself but has anyone seen the Gen 13 animated 'movie' from a few years back? Just how bad was it?

Although I don't think it was ever officially released you can pick it up on Ebay on DVD really easily. I must buy it as it had an 'all-star' voice talent line up of: Alicia Witt, John Delance, Mark Hamill and Flea from RHCP I certainlly have not read anything saying it sucked, it just seemed never to get as much of a push as seems to have been planned for it. Bruce Timm did the designs I believe.

Yeah yeah, it's nothing I haven't heard from my girlfriend a hundred times before :p

Hey don't feel bad.
I  have a stack of Yes albums.  :-[

But I do feel bad, for you...  ;D

The second Rammstein album I have 5 versions of it.... cause they released different covers...

and a special case thingie on one of them.

I just bought a Buffy and Zander sketch by J Scott Campbell.

Essential Official Handbook Of The Marvel Universe.

A brand new book telling you about the characters in the Marvel Universe... up to 1982.


The only market for the up-to-date version would be the sadder branches of fanboyishness - so you can only guess at the sadness of someone who'd want to read the older version. (Unless you know me, in which case you know how sad I am.)

I saw that the other day and must admit to almost buying it, I have some of the originals from the early 90s when they came out, they were pretty cool, on quality card and punched so you could put them into binders.

The new version is out in the next few weeks.

Getting the Essential.

Already own the Gaming version which did it in 4 volumes total :)

I've got those too. Plus, I've got one of the gaming "year" updates (I think there were two). I wish I'd kept my old copies of Dragon Magazine, there were a lot of interesting Marvel stats/histories in there.

Looking forward to the new version. I didn't get the 1990's version, but I did get the DC Who's Who that came out at about the same time.

I had comic pros trying to buy the last DC Who's Who off me.

Got some of the Dragon updates kept from those issues of Dragon I got rid of.

Isn't the current Marvel Who's who in a comic format, with a bunch of reprinted pics?
I really liked the format of the binder and pages but you ended up with some real dross, I'd like to see that kind of Who's Who but in, for example a group A-Z (IE X-Men, Spider-man etc) format rather than the A-Z of the entire Universe. Something a bit more substantial than the comic formats but less so and more friendly than the book format.

Isn't that the Essential Guide Hardbacks like that Avengers one that gave away Ronin's identity?

Marvel also did Guides to Hulk, Avengers etc as Hardbacks in the past few years.

I'd much rather get dross as dross sparks more ideas than the characters you already know loads about.

Fair point, there are the hardbacks, but what are the comic ones they have done recently, there was an Ultimates one just a few weeks ago.

Off the top of my head there have been

X Men
Spider-man
Avengers
Ultimates line
Golden Age
Deceased

Fantastic Four
Monsters
Wolverine

I think there was one about women as well...

I think I have an Ultraforce Topaz and Night Man figure in the package floating around the house somewhere.

Some bastard friend of mine beat me to a near-complete set of Ultraverse figures at the last show we went to. I could kill him, really I could....

My pictures with popular japanese wrestlers Takao Omori and Steve Corino.

I think we still have the DC Who's Who in the binders, but my dad was collecting it rather than me...

I have all those and I think a full set of the original Who's who and updates.

I've got all of the version of Who's Who in the binders, but not either of the updates.

I also have the 87 and 88 updates to the original series, and a few issues here and there of both the original and the LoSH runs.

But do you have the Who's Who in Star Trek?

Please tell me I'm not the only one who has no clue what you guys are on about?

Nope. Never really got into the Star Trek comics either.

I do have a few reference-type books from my years of Star Trek fandom that I'm getting rid of...


Sabrina - as usual when conversations like this happen including me, Mark or (especially) me AND Mark... count yourself lucky.

My Dad bought the Star Trek comics - especially when Peter David was writing them.

Figures.

Oh well.

It could be worse.... ::)

It could be , erm... erm.

It probably couldn't...

I own a farscape peacekeeper pulse pistol made out of resin I bought off ebay, though Sabrina says thats cool

I own copies of all of the Action Philosophers! comic books, and plan on getting them signed, come New York Comic Con...

I've got a rubber chicken that's got heavy makeup and lingerie on.  Not geeky, but certainly kinky.

An old Star Wars annual, pre-'A New Hope' title...

i dont even know where to begin  :D . . . I will return later with pics!

I know that feeling.
