1334ArticleHoju Koolander@pikachulover Wow, That's awesome! The clearance aisle was a favorite of mine too. If I had lived that close to TRU I would have been there every day after school hassling the employees about the latest X-Men figures in person, rather than on the phone. Sep 25, 2014View
1338ArticleHoju KoolanderIt's like even when you win, she wins. You should have just blamed the whole thing on your adamantium claws like, "yeah, I meant to do that." the fact that you planned to be Wolverine all day with no thought for a change of clothes is pretty great.Halloween 1995 Victory and Embarrassment Sep 27, 2014View
1339ArticleHoju Koolander@pikachulover I was Goofy, The Genie, Woody, Baloo, Brer Bear, Mr. Incredible, Kronk and my favorite, the Queen of Hearts. My version of the Queen was quite a diva.A Haunting ExperienceSep 27, 2014View
1340ArticleHoju KoolanderVery universal and true on the best list, though spider-rings never did it for me. On the worst list I would add money. Not because free money is bad, but the houses that did this usually gave out nickels. Maybe you could get a piece of Bazooka Joe gum at 7-11 for that price, but the disappointment of getting 5 cents that wasn't even enough for a vending machine was pretty major for a kid who watched Scrooge McDuck swimming in the stuff every afternoon.Top 5 Best and Worst things to get in...Sep 27, 2014View
1345ArticleHoju Koolander@NLogan I thought I remembered that being part of the deal. Still, as incompetent as Beast-Man was, would he really be your first choice of evil minion?Slime Time!Sep 29, 2014View
1352ArticleHoju KoolanderPretty unique selections here. So are these box art examples from Greek releases? Is that why I've never seen this wrap-around style of VHS art before? I feel like trips to the video store would have been even cooler if the back of the box wasn't just text and 2-3 small photos, but part of a complete mural.The Lost Art of VHS BoxesOct 01, 2014View
1357ArticleHoju Koolander@NLogan That is an awesome story. I assume the clerk was being a punk to your Dad? If not, I feel bad for the kid that was just reporting what the computer said. Either way he learned a lesson in "common sense" that day.Timewarp: Blockbuster Video 1996Oct 02, 2014View
1368ArticleHoju KoolanderPacked to the gills with Halloween goodness, the Creature would approve! Your love ofnthe holiday ismplain to see. Thanks for that odyssey of great costumes and memorabilia. I would have loved to have enjoyed classic Monster Movies in 3-D on TV, instead all we got were John Wayne films. But I was there at 7-11 to get my Hondo glasses nonetheless. Loved those spooky LPs. I had a Haunted Mansion record growing up that dramatized the ride, I can still hear the Raven's eery caw. Those orange monster books were a favorite for me as well, the one for Murders at the Rue Morgue was the only one I considered boring, so it only got one check out from the school library. Happiest of Halloweens to you and your family!NLogan's Retro Halloween OverloadOct 04, 2014View
1369ArticleHoju KoolanderYou are as always the king of mood setting layouts, the 8 bit monsters in the borders were great. Poor Steve, it was always special to me when the adults handing out candy were dressed up, it really amplified the spirit of the night. The soda displays were always epic, especially when Elvira and the Universal Monsters were involved thanks to Pepsi and Doritos. Good stuff!Flannel CornucopiaOct 04, 2014View
1384ArticleHoju Koolander@NLogan Definitely had The Duke style glasses. I so wish I still had the Haunted Mansion record. I went through the record collection at the old homestead a few years ago, but it had disappeared. I was able to save the Pirates of the Carribean one though. Not quite as cool, but still memorable.NLogan's Retro Halloween OverloadOct 06, 2014View
