Alright,
Welcome back to That Kitsch Itch the official blog for www.kitschitchtoys.webs.com the
UK’s home for retro and vintage toys. Check us out on Facebook ( www.facebook.com/kitschitchtoys)
or on YouTube (www.youtube.com/woolicane),
plenty of different things to look at, get involved in, buy and so much more
still to come.
Sorry this is going up slightly later than I planned, events
have kind of got in the way this week. Especially the traffic this lunch time.
I had to journey out when I normally write this and by the Gods was the traffic
bad. It was what should have been a ten to twenty minute journey, a quick trip
out, dropping my niece off, no big deal. An hour and a quarter later I’m at
last pulling up at home, still with my lunch to cook and a load of videos I
needed to record. Still I got the videos done, so they should be up over the
forth coming Wednesday’s, which is something at least. I’m going to try not to
rant too much here, all I’m going to say is bleedin’ roadworks, and move on.
On to more pleasant things, like Collectorabillia in Leeds
next month, which has just launched a brand new advert with Kitsch Itch Toys
featured across it. I’m hoping I can include it on here so I can show it off a
bit, it’ll certainly be going up on www.kitschitchtoy.webs.com
so go and check it out there too. It’s shaping up to be an awesome event, as is
Ultracon over at Magna near Sheffield, been chatting to the team running that
and everything looks amazing for that event. I can hardly wait for these two
things to happen. Keep your eyes on the Kitsch Itch site for more on them.
Now I know that last week I said I’d be trumpeting my
Patreon campaign here today, unfortunately that hasn’t developed yet, the video
I was hoping to record to promote it hasn’t been finished yet, and I really don’t
want to start it without that. It should be this week, depending on events that
are beyond my control getting in the way like they did last week. At least the
camera on my phone should mean the video is a much higher quality. More on this
next week no doubt.
Just a quick note as well about some new items that are just
arriving in stock. I’ve got the chance to bring in some Kree-O Cityville
Invasion blind bags, they are awesome things and I hope to have a load to sell
at the upcoming cons with any over spill
to wind up on our website or the ebay page. These minifigures are also part of
this week’s Wednesday video, the Blind Bags Summer Special. I’m calling it that
mostly because it’s filmed in the garden. It should be lots of fun there’s
Marvel and Thomas the Tank Engine involved too. Not only that though, but there
is also a few, possibly more than a few, Doctor Who 3 and ¾ figures landing in
the store this week. Certainly there is one with the 12th Doctor in
his caretaker outfit. Not one of my favourite episodes and not my favourite
figure scale, but still they should be awesome. Expect a review of that
arriving at some point too.
Other than that I think it’s time to call it a day on this
meandering edition of the blog. Hopefully next week will be a bit more focused.
There will be a big update coming on Flay’s First Adventure and what might be
coming up after that as well. It is looking exciting. Also we’ve got a controversial
episode of Fanon still to come this week, all about Thundercats. Keep your eyes
out for it and until next week…
