it's fallout friday! ~

yeah i just made that up, but i wanted to post all about fallout games today ~

i've spent the summer fully immersed in fallout 4, the latest in the fallout videogame series ~

i first tried fallout 3 on xbox 360 ~ fallout 3

got hooked & went on to fallout: new vegas ~ fallout: new vegas

then fallout 4 on ps4 ~ fallout 4

in a few days the latest dlc nuka world is coming out :D !!! ~ nuka world trailer

the guides & s.p.e.c.i.a.l. perks ~

where else can i live in an old drive-in, convert it into a kitty sanctuary & set up my own toy shop, but in the fallout wasteland ~

here i am, bren, or the professor as some have called me ~

recently i've been working on opening a little toy & soda shop in the wastes ~

for all your post-apoc toy needs ~

have a nuka cola & peruse the selection ~

we carry vault tec lunchboxes & plastic pumpkins, it's already time to start thinking of halloween! ~

popular favorites like jangles the moon monkey ~

giddyup buttercup & blast radius board games ~

be sure to check the comic book rack for grognak the barbarian, astoundingly awesome tales & the unstoppables ~

& it's time to start thinking about xmas toys too ~

our treat center carries nuka cola, nuka cherry, nuka quantum & vim ~

or if you're hungry we have candy, fancy lad snack cakes, sugar bombs, blamo mac'n'cheese, instamash, salisbury steak, dandy boy apples & more ~

check the display cases for robot models, cool science items or the latest holotape games to play on your pip-boy like grognak, atomic command & red menace ~

lost & found toys at university point in the old pharmacy building ~

flashback friday favorite ~ gumby's world

there's nothing i like better than a package on my front doorstep from gumby world! ~

last saturday i posted about the new gumby's world free game app & how i'd won all the prizes playing as dr zveegee! ~

#1 is this 50s superflex bendy collector's edition set that i've posted here before ~

#2 is a 60s reissue retro bendy on card like this ~

i'm sure the pokey will come along pretty soon too ~

#3 is a lenticular winky style postcard like this ~

hard to photo, but pokey blinks ~

with gumby trivia on the reverse ~

unlocking treasure rooms also allowed me to win this set of 5 cool gumby collector cards featuring gumby from each era ~

i haven't seen gumby collector cards since 2001 ~

i have it on good authority that we'll be seeing more collector cards like these soon! ~

you can download the gumby's world app up at gumbyland here, but they've just changed the first place prize, so watch out for dr zveegee!!!!!!!

update: ok so they sent me the pokey for a later #3 prize ~

& a pokey bitty for winning the gumby gold rush game ~

bittys on card ~

they also have sticker sheets & wall hangings as prizes, i'll update as i can..

this is a flashback friday favorite post from january 2018, i've added links to more so be sure to click.. that time feels unreal to me now, days & middle of nights spent playing gumby games for all those free gumby prizes!! it feels like a dream! the app stopped working eventually so it came to an end, but not the memories :D
