WEIRD DOLL WEDNESDAY, PART 303

Can you stand more Game of Thrones? Of course, you can.

A big fan favorite was Oberyn Martell, AKA The Red Viper,   and Daddy of The Sand Snakes. He was holding a major grudge against the Mountain for killing his sister. Do to a round about story line, he became the champion for Tyrion. I know, if you don't know the books/TV show, you have no idea what I'm talking about.

Oberyn fights with a (poisoned) spear and lightweight amour. The Mountain fought wearing heavy amour and a big assed sword. To bad, Oberyn got all extra and didn't just finish him off. The Mountain ended up killing Oberyn in the grossest death in the series: popped his head like a melon.

Watch your back!

WEIRD DOLL WEDNESDAY, PART 302

Another baby doll in a tree from Isla De Las Munecase in Mexico City. From Wonderers Hub

Is it just me, or does the doll look weirdly happy?

Sorry about posting so late. I've been having internet problems all afternoon.

WEIRD DOLL WEDNESDAY, PART 301

Look what someone with free time made: Rosemary's Baby action figures!

 

My BFF sent me this photo awhile ago and I just found it hiding on my laptop. I don't where it originally came from.

Ruth Gordon and Mia Farrow standing in front of the Dakota in 1968. Awesome movie. Think I'll go have some chocolate mouse.

WEIRD DOLL WEDNESDAY, PART 300  

300??????????????

Who knew I was going to be able to keep it up that long, not me. And who knew this existed?

  

 An Edgar Allen Poe bobble head doll. About 10 or so years ago, I designed the costumes for  play called Nevermore. Based on the thought of what happened to Mr. Poe leading up to the day he was found dying in a gutter. He was seen boarding a ship, then disappearing and turning up days later in Baltimore, only to die a couple of days later. It's still a mystery. The playwriter set the play as fantasy ala A Christmas Carole where Poe goes through a guided tour of his stories instead of his life. He interacts with The Telltale Heart, The Gold Bug ect. This is the only photo I have from the show.

Poe and Annabell Lee. What's funny is I was planning on having the bobble head featured today, then I watched a movie called Twixt by Francis Ford Coppala and the lead has dreams where he's lead on an adventure by Edgar Allen Poe.  Hmm...………..

WEIRD DOLL WEDNESDAY, PART 299

Ser Davos of Seaworth, smuggler from Flea Bottom turned Lord and taught how the read by Princess Shireen.

Which I know means nothing to those of you that don't watch/read Game of Thrones.

WEIRD DOLL WEDNESDAY, PART 298 

Stumbled across a post from a fellow named Matthew Thompson called Journey to the Island of Dolls. Have you heard about this place? It's on an island in the middle of Mexico City. And is covered with dolls.....creepy, weird dolls hanging in the trees and all over the place. I heard about this years ago and always wanted to let the weird dolls hang out in the backyard. I guess it will have to wait. Not a good idea to do when the house is for sale.

The Power to the People doll?
