Collection Spotlight: Selena - Amor Prohibido (2024 Target Exclusive Pink Repress)

Amor Prohibido is one of my favorite albums of all-time (2nd only to a recent Spotlight, Britney). I have been dying for a vinyl repress for years and finally we get it with the 30th anniversary!! I opted for the gorgeous Target version. It came with a poster and I love how they did the "picture-in-picture" thing they used to do with her 90s posters. I really do wish they would recreate their 90s merch!! Her tour shirts looked like so much fun! Anyway, while this release is breathtakingly beautiful and I am so happy to hold it in my hands as a vinyl, they did make some questionable choices when it came to remastering the songs. There are small instrumental moments here and there that were not present in the original album, and the vocals on Cobarde sound pitched up for some reason? I might not choose to play this one over the CD, but at least I can display this on my vinyl shelf now :)

In the 90s I had the opportunity to participate in “The Looney Tunes Spotlight Collection” for Goebel. I, along with Tim Cahill, initially provided sketches of famous Looney Tunes moments, to the sculptors, in this case the talented Chris Peterson. It was fun to see the figures develop into these 3D forms.

My works in October's Magma event hosted by @choochooboss, Pasio Glamour Fest! The dress up/sygna suit prompt for this event was so perfect for me, I do love dressing Volo up.

Did you know? I actually have to draw Volo at fixed intervals, else I shrivel up like a wilted flower. Fucked up, but true!

Collection Spotlight: Marina & the Diamonds - Electra Heart (2022 Hot Pink Deluxe Vinyl Reissue)

Electra Heart has always been one of my favorite albums and I coveted the original hot pink vinyl that I had missed out on for years! When this 10th anniversary reissue was announced, I was so excited because not only was it that hot pink I was dreaming of, but it had bonus tracks as well! I had the US edition CD so some UK tracks were completely unknown to me (leaks overwhelm me so if they're not an official single or on an album, I don't know about it).

Oddly enough, it was missing 2 tracks (Sex Yeah and Radioactive) which is a huge bummer but this is still a great reissue and I'm happy to have it in my collection!

Note: photo of the platinum slipcover is from Discogs because it is shiny and difficult to take photos of

I made a post the other day about Barbie conventions and convention exclusive doll releases. One of the many I didn't talk about I personally feel deserves her own post. She isn't special in the sense of being particularly influential, expensive, or otherwise remarkable. I just personally really like her.

This is Spotlight on Broadway Barbie, a 2015 convention exclusive.

She goes on my list alongside such collections as Jazz Baby as collectors dolls that I really like and frankly didn't think we needed but am so happy about.

I don't have much more to say about her, but do I need to?! Look at her and tell me that I'm wrong and that you don't need her as part of your collection immediately.

Sometimes I love having Dragons as a special interest and other times I hate it because now I want to buy two of the most expensive dragon skylanders!

I love when my players bypass a setpiece battle, and that’s not even sarcasm.

I’d prepped a Catoblepas herd for this past week. 

While making their way into the mountains proper, Nim the ranger suddenly slowed the party to a stop at the edge of....a putrid, festering swamp that absolutely should not be there, and absolutely was not here a month ago when they left for Requiem along this exact route.

Use of their interplanar spyglass confirms a strong fae presence. Nim can sense several dozen fae, scattered loosely throughout the surrounding few square miles of suddenly marshy forest. Andromeda, our aarakocra paladin, uses this information to fly a recon mission. There’s three of them along the road they need to follow.

Nim, the one with animal handling, sneaks ahead to see what these weird warthog-cow creatures are, on the logic that if they’re just normal animals (unlikely, because only strong fae are able to get through the barrier for more than an hour or so, and to cause this kind of ecological change they must have been here for weeks) he’s best qualified to correct the situation if they panic or turn aggressive.

This Is A Mistake. The first catoblepas hits him with an attack to which I am forever grateful for the opportunity to say “Okay, it’s going to use its Death Ray ability--” “ITS WHAT?!” and takes out a third of his HP instantly.

The party is beginning to panic, prepping to fight but freaking out, when we get to Audie’s turn in initiative order.

She casts Banishment.

In the following 60 seconds the party heals Nim, gets him to cast Pass Without Trace, and gets themselves past the creature’s position and hidden in the brush. They wait and observe while Audie times it.

The catoblepas reappears. This is a very bad sign. It was sent back to its native plane; it’s supposed to stay there. The veil is getting thin. It’s getting very, very thin. They need to hurry.

And as it turned out, stopping to fight the herd would have cost them time and hitpoints that none of them could afford to spare.
