Good ol Alucard

Castlin' the Vania, and whatnot

Third, and presumably final card is Mind Castlin, a Level 6 DARK Psychic Synchro Monster.

This one has a control switch effect, though the second one works when it is destroyed.

This one is for the recent World Premiere Psychic support.

Now we wait for the final Speed Duel set.

Kanpur Plastipack’s W&H Filmex II castline

Kanpur Plastipack, a  public limited company quoted on the stock exchange, is a provider of industrial bulk packaging solutions. It has recently enhanced its capacity with the installation of W&H’s seven-layer Filmex II castline with metallizer and a Titan slitter rewinder from Applied Materials. The Kanpur-based converter offers high-density PE sack and flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBCs), and also woven fabric, sulzer fabric, and multi-filament yarn (MFY).

Among the company’s diversifications is the manufacturing of UV masterbaches used for the protection of outdoor films and products against UV degradation and discoloration. KPL offers food-grade UV, non-food grade UV, and masterbatches with white TIO2.

Agarwal, also the president of the Indian Flexible Intermediate Bulk Container Association (IFIBCA), met us at Interpack 2023 in Dusseldorf, Germany. He told us that the Indian FIBC industry has come a long way since the formation of IFIBCA more than two decades ago. “Twenty years ago, India was producing about 10,000 metric tons a year of FIBCs. Today the production amounts to more than 400,000 tons. India is among the biggest players in the FIBC export market and the leading exporter to the US and European countries with a strong penetration in the German market.”

Good share for Indian FIBC exporters

In a recent interaction, Agarwal said, “India holds a massive share in the US and European markets. Although the growth is consistent, it won’t be an easy task to expand further in these markets. Japan and South Korea are the two markets unexplored by the Indian FIBC manufacturers and thus expanding in these markets is the next step for us. We are working hard to expand our footprint there. Indian FIBCs are expected to replace the Chinese and Vietnamese in Japan and South Korea.”

According to him, the flexible packaging market that was surging during the pandemic has slowed down recently. “We all have seen so many geo-political issues happening globally — the Russia-Ukraine war, Gaza War, the Red Sea crisis, and to top it all, inflation is moving in a constant upward spiral. These factors have also resulted in slowing down of innovations as well,” Agarwal said.

The flexible packaging and UV masterbatch manufacturer has four production plants in India and a base of operations in Brazil. Agarwal suggests that the growth of the Indian packaging industry has huge potential and a knowledge or technology-intensive approach is the only way forward. “With the rise in Industry 4.0, technologies such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, traceability, and authentication will be the differentiators,” he says.

New M2 Cars Collected

From - http://www.m2machines.com/home.html

I just added the following three cars to my collection:

M2 MACHINES SPRITE 1960 VOLKSWAGEN SINGLE CAB TRUCK M2 MACHINES CORN NUTS 1965 FORD ECONOLINE DELIVERY VAN M2 MACHINES MR.PIBB 1965 FORD ECONOLINE DELIVERY VAN

M2 Machines is the brand name of Castline, Inc.'s line of 1/64, 1/24, and 1/18th (now discontinued) scale diecast models representing cars and trucks from the 1940s up to the 1990s. Production is based in Asia with design and distribution of all products coming out of California, USA.

Their 1/64 models were at first mostly distributed in cardstock boxes, but some recent releases now come in clamshell blister packaging that includes a larger card back with the casting still enclosed by an acrylic display case with a black base.

Each separate 1/64 series release has included four to nine vehicles and usually includes a "chase" vehicle limited to 750 or 500 pieces distributed worldwide. Chase vehicles are usually made with gold highlights.

Some series releases also include a more "super chase" vehicle usually limited to 250 or 168 pieces world wide. Some also include a "chrome" vehicle that is limited to just 108 pieces world wide. Super chase vehicles are usually done in gold with gold highlights and chrome vehicles are usually completely chromed except for the interior and tires. These are more rare and collectible.

Some of M2's series include Auto-Drivers, Auto-Thentics, Auto-Trucks, Detroit-Muscle, Auto-Japan and many others including releases from popular or historical designers.

The M2 cars usually offer slightly more detail than Hot Wheels or Matchbox and typically cost two to three times more than equal cars from Mattel.
