lost & found vintage toys

american mcgee's alice

my favorite alice is the original series #1 alice figure here with cheshire cat by american mcgee ~

this is the classic original pc game with rutledge asylum casebook & box from EA games 2000 ~ this more mature version of alice had its setting in a very dark & twisted wonderland of alice's own troubled mind.. (bloody violence & psychological horror, this one was not for the kiddies..)

i love this game, mr mcgee's artwork & the music by chris vrenna that is throughout~
(i still listen to the cd which sounds much like the inner workings of my own little mind..)

there was also a later alice figure released (with cat), but she was in a different anime type style ~

their boxes were almost the same ~

alice's signature weapon ~ the deadly vorpal blade..

this one is stainless steel made in japan by epic weapons ~

this game gave me the only case of simsickness i ever had, & hooked me forever!

more american mcgee's alice as madness returns for the remainder of january..

p.s. did you catch the original 1951 disney's alice in wonderland on the abc family channel last night?

lost & found toys

i had a dream last night about kid's meals & prizes ~

& i woke up with a realization ~

as a life-long collector i've been going through happy meal toy withdrawls! ~

i always use to say, if i don't get a toy, i don't eat ;) ~

we don't venture out to estate sales, library sales, fcbds, collectible shops & fast-food places much anymore ~

so i'm reduced to finding my treasure by boredshopping online these days ~

my guilty pleasure? ~

among my other creative projects ~

even our home is retro ~

of course ~

happiness is a box of books ;) ~

but it got me thinking of all the cool memories i have associated with all the years of assembling the lost & found toys blog & gumbyland ~

the unexpected finds! ~

the thrill of the hunt, never knowing what you might discover :D ~

toxic was a collector but she lost most of her old possessions over the years ~

finding & enjoying vintage toys has been a blast! ~

it is like a time machine ~

if you are a fellow vintage kid like toxic, you might also enjoy checking out my ghost toy catalogue ~

it's like an inventory of oldschool fun books, toys & other collectibles ~

& it is accompanied by a wonderful 'domestic bliss' soundtrack :D ~

so if you'd like to see more than just the posts here at the lost & found & gumbyland.. ~

just click here & let's travel back ~
