Let's start with this really cool wall display with a customized Hasbro Indiana Jones. The Doctor came up with this really unique looking hanging display piece and then a nice job of improving the figure, placing it in an action pose.
I thought we would end the week with a feature on the artistry of Dr. Zorkon. Without a doubt the good Doctor has some of the most unique figures I have ever seen and he has this incredible knack for finding some amazing deals. So let's sit back and enjoy a few favorites. Let's start with this really cool wall display with a customized Hasbro Indiana Jones. The Doctor came up with this really unique looking hanging display piece and then a nice job of improving the figure, placing it in an action pose. In a similar vein, we get three of the heroes from Lord of the Rings, placed in an interesting vignette that features a couple of different levels, which is a great way of putting three figures in the space normally used by two. You could use a display like this for a wide variety of sci-fi/adventure figures. This display with Rosy the Riveter is one of my favorites. I really like all the cool little details in a fairly small area, especially those welding tanks. There is a lot of cool stuff here. I see something new every time I look at it. Another favorite, is this motorcyclist. It is really cool how the Doctor displayed the bike at this angle. There is a small piece of thin fishing line attached to the bike and the base and it is doing all the work. You don't even see it if you don't know it is there. It is beautiful work - both the bike and the biker are custom work and they really look amazing. I would personally love to have this figure and bike in my collection. Beautiful work Doctor. Another unique little figure vignette based on the character of Forrest Gump. I love the base. There is a ton of detail there with the various plants and the grass. It looks quite real and my photo really doesn't do it justice. The Doctor also likes to do big scenes, like this D-Day planning session. There is so much stuff in the display and I have no idea where the Doctor picks it up. I really like the fireplace. What a cool feature for any interior, but it really gives the room a feeling of being in an English country manor. All great stuff. I know I personally look forward to each month's meeting to see what Dr. Zorkon is going to bring. He never disappoints. Well, that's all for this week. We'll start up again on Sunday night with a new installment of the UPDATE. Until next time, have a good one!

I just wish I had easy access to the places that the Doctor goes to pick up all the little gems he finds. He has found some absolutely amazing things. I can walk around a place like traders world for hours and not see a thing. It is uncanny how he finds this stuff and it is always cool.
