i do have the new minis james launcher coming from ucwepn, which should be here this week hopefully!! he is sending two, one will be a trade with yalllow again.
i finally finished building and modding the lego winter village train, removing the 9v components from the monster train and putting them in the tender of the christmas train. this means the motor is both pushing and pulling, which it seems to handle quite well.
the american tradition of black fridays sales started happening here a few years ago, and this year i finally found something worth going in for... reproduction barbie dolls for $3.46. they were one per customer, so dad came with me so i could try for two. i managed to snag the last two on the shelf, out of maybe 7 or 8 dolls. one will be going to ucwepn at some stage soon.
im not normally a doll buyer, but i do have a handful of barbie sized dolls that were too nice to not buy. one is tiana from the princess and the frog, and another two are anna and elsa from frozen. i also have one wearing a dress covered in beatrix potter characters.
