Instead of taking what would likely be fifty or sixty pictures...I went the video route again.  Some of you saw the "Virtual Tour of the White Tower" video I posted in General Assembly a month or two ago.  Well, this video is focused solely on the Toy Room -- and a longer, more lingering look at all the shelves there (as it was pointed out by a few folks that I kinda whizzed by a lot of stuff).

I get to the "higher end" figures about half way through the 7 & a half minute video...and the Jack Nicholson Joker shows up at roughly the 6 minute mark (for the rest of the video).

You're also going to be tortured by, I mean treated to the sound of my own moronic sounding voice as I narrate like a simpering tool.  Maybe I should have come up with some sort of script beforehand?  Eh, wouldn't change the sound, only the content. 

Fortunately, I have some mildly appropriate music playing in the background.  No, not "Welcome to My Nightmare", though you're likely to be hearing my voice now in YOUR nightmares...

Oh, sorry to say, no kitty cameos this time around.  I do make a reference to a fellow Messer at one point though.  Hope it's at least a little enjoyable...

I'm trying to abstain from Mojo and the inevitable fight that I feel will resurface as it returns. I would appreciate it if everyone would respect that and not give me any. Thank you.

Good stuff Scot! I enjoyed the commentary too!

Mostly I was amazed you didn't plow a shelf over while coming up with the video camera. Specifically the JLU section... I was watching while saying "oh no!" out loud. I always get too close with the damn thing.

Most of those figures are literally "stuck" to the shelves, though plenty loose figures have been wedged in here and there, and most of the figures in the front row are also "free-standing".  Captain Cold, Cyborg and a few other guys have definitely taken a tumble out of nowhere.

Most of the DCD figures are likewise "stuck".

Probably the figures that I've discovered must have had a bit too much to drink and tipped over or fallen back -- have been Mattel's Big Barda and Black Canary.  Though even with the handlers wax, that DCD Bat-shelf can often be...problematic.

Glad you enjoyed it. I specifically made the video for you guys.  Just something to fill the time when I'm not whining about imaginary points.  Razz

Yes, there's definitely a few things I owe a debt of inspirational gratitude to various Messers.

Reddy's tornado, Jonah's horse and the very whippy stands themselves -- if not for the Mess, I wouldn't have done or bought any of these things.

Then again, I might not even have any collection if not for DCO/Doosh/Critical Mess. So that means...I can blame all of you!
