My wife and I have been talking about having an in-ground pool kit installed in our backyard. The web-site we've been looking at states that other than the excavation, homeowners can do the work themselves. Has anyone done this before? If so, how hard was it? What advice/tips can you give to someone who's never attempted anything like this before? Really hoping to get some good guidance on what to expect/avoid if we try this ourselves. Thanks.

Picked up the two basic carded figures from the recent Medicom show for $45 total. Now it's just a matter of tracking down Maul...

Stole this from space monkey's post over on Kubrick Nation. Couldn't wait for him to post it any longer...
This will look nice next to the 400% vac-metal C-3PO and TC-14 Kubricks.

The back of the card is the Bape Fett, but not the front...

Picked up the R2-Q5 from Yahoo! Japan. Although the auction ended for less than I was hoping to spend on the figure, the shipping and fees from Celga will probably end up costing me more than I wanted to spend...
I was also able to work out an arrangement with a Japanese co-worker to get the 400% Teebo, 400% TC-14 and R2-D2/C-3PO B@earbrick 2-pack from the Project 1/6 Store. I won't get these for a while, but she saved me over $100 on fees and shipping by picking these up for me.

« on: May 24, 2012, 09:44 PM »Isn't it these?Looks like we'll be getting carded versions of the Vinyl Vader and Tie Fighter pilot from DX4 for the Medicom Toy Exhibition. The Kubrick line is still dead in my eyes so I can't be bothered to make a new thread about them.
No, what I'm talking about is the following. They announced last year that they were releasing the Stormtrooper and a re-carded Boba Fett at the show and would then have some available on the Project 1/6 site. So we thought those were the only two figures we were getting. Then, Medicom had a private event where they gave away carded vinyl Obi-Wan figures to the attendees. What I'm saying is that I hope that they do the same thing this year and release another vintage nod carded figure. I'm personally hoping for the Leia since we don't have a non-holo carded figure of her yet.

I'm more interested in the give-away carded figure that they are handing out this year. Last year was the vinyl Obi-Wan. Anyone taking bets? Vinyl Tusken, vinyl Leia, vinyl Jawa?!

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Gotta have ACL surgery for my dog
« on: May 17, 2012, 09:41 PM »
Haven't had to have surgery for our dog, but my wife's cat tore his ACL. The surgery was successful, but he wasn't a high jumper afterward. He used to be able to get up on the bathroom counter with ease before the surgery, but after he was pretty much only jumping onto the couch. As far as his gait was concerned, he didn't have a limp and could still get around rather quickly when he needed to.
Sorry I couldn't give you much to go on for your dog, but like you, there was never a question for us about not getting the surgery done when it happened.

Just got back from the matinee with my wife. Awesome movie. There was just the right mix of action, dialogue and humor. Will definitely see it again on the big screen before it goes away.
