TNBC 3D rambling and sketch

[reymonkey]

Got all ready and tried to mail stuff off today, and failed because the post office was closed. Their hours on the door were listed Saturday: AM- PM
Real helpful guys. If you're closed Saturday could you just put 'closed' after it, like you did for Sunday? Wtf?
Got my package from Donya just before I ran to work yesterday, which is why the mailing had to wait... I has a monkey! And a stikfas. I put him together, and I can see the extra chest and arm pieces are for if you get little accessories, but there's also these two pieces the instructions say to put together, and they're just floating beside the figure in the diagram. I put them together. It looks like an extra pelvis, but doesn't give any options his original pelvis doesn't have. This inspired a discussion of why somebody would need an extra pelvis, but... yeah. What is this thing supposed to be?

Courtney's party post is tonight, for the RPers. This also means the keyboard is in high demand, so I'm sitting here rushing this post but I won't be on the rest of the night.
We went and saw the Nightmare Before Christmas in 3D. OMFG that was expensive, but so worth it! I noticed so many details I never had before, like the gatekeeper, and the one monster's tentacles in curlers at the end where everyone got woken up. OMGOMG! I realized that I do indeed know every damn line in that movie. It was so amazing, I think I fell in love with the movie all over again. I went to it just when it was new, you see, and ran to get the soundtrack after being let out of the theatre. I was thrilled to go see it with a friend instead of my parents, at the time, which says just how damn long ago that was. My original ticket is still in the CD case. Wow.
Soooo in honor of that, I give you a sketch I actually did just before Hallowe'en, for the fanart project. I think I'll be working on ocloring it tonight... after I take down the Hallowe'en decorations. :P

Stikfas...they have extra parts, so if one breaks you can change them out. You can *almost* make two figures out of each package. You need to look at their website, it's cool. :D

And the flying monkey is cool! We all have them here and we like to scare each other with them haha.

Okay, I get that, but I still don't get the wonky pelvis with the dovetail join. I actually get this quarterly catalog called Entertainment Earth, and they always have them in there and I've wondered about them for a long time. There is so much in that catalong I lust after...

Oook! His arms stretch in the weirdest way...
