LOL... yup... all the ones from my family. They are not usually only DVDs... but I usually will get at least a couple DVDs mixed in there. We will see if I get many this year from them or not. :p

Cool.... A friend of mine on another forum just posted this...

QuoteAs I recall, Pete's birthday is this Saturday and I have put together a package of DVDs to Pete that I will be sending out on Tuesday (as tomorrow is Memorial Day here in the U.S.). Among the items I'll be sending Pete (without getting too detailed)...

A pair of movie serials. One is an extra copy I got as a complimentary gift and the other is one I could never get into.
A John Wayne In Uniform movie I am sending for his mom who enjoys those kinds of movies.
A 3-disc set of Three Stooges shorts (Pete already knew about this)
A full season of a TV series of another series I never got around to watching. I was actually going to send both seasons I have of this series but looked at Pete's list of what he has and he already had one of the two seasons I have so I'm keeping one and sending the other.

At any rate, Pete, I hope you enjoy this stuff...if this package arrives a day or two before your birthday, feel free to open it up as soon as it arrives.  :thumbup: And I hope you have a happy birthday. If you already have anything I'm sending, feel free to pass it along to another lucky DVD collector...  ;D

I like this guy... not only does he remember my birthday (hard not to with all I get through-out the month!)... but he gives really good hints too!  ;D

These are from his private collection... so yes they are used... but I have no problem with that what so ever!  :thumbup:

I'm so jealous...I bought the individual sets but didn't the wonderful busts. :weep:

Hey Kathy...
I had a couple online friends ask me about pictures of the busts in that set... they wanted to get a good look at them. So I took some pics... and thought I would post them here for you to see... as well as any others that didn't get this set that may be intesrested/curios. I left these a little bigger then I normally do to help show the detail. Here we have (as if no one knew)...

Dracula


The Wolf Man


Frankenstein

You should have kept quiet, nobody would have know, it doesn't show on the picture  ;D

Nope... I didn't notice any dust... that is for sure.

I am still undecided how I will actually display them. At this point they are back in the box. This makes it easier when someone comes over wanting to know what I got for my B'day so far.  :P But I do plan on putting them out at some point after my birthday.

It's just a shame they didn't do busts for Creature from the Black Lagoon, The Invisible Man & The Mummy... to complete the set... would have been cool to have them all.

Well, seeing the conceptual art for it, I think I know why they didn't go forward with it

Well usually, the Invisible Man is represented with the bandage half off, so. I'll shut up now, before I dig myself further down  :whistle:
