Today may be the last official day of Summer 2015, but the AEIOU and Sometimes Why Summer Swap is still going strong. Some fellow bloggers have been passing around a box of goodies to each other all summer, taking what they want and adding things along the way. I had the very good fortune to be the recipient after William Bruce West, a great guy who definitely knows my taste.
I’ve known Will for a few years and I imagine he is surrounded by boxes of eBay fodder, much like myself, and the box he sent me is proof of that — this thing was bulging with pop culture goodness. He way, way overdid it, and I was thrilled with the contents.
Honestly, I don’t know how all of this stuff fit in the box.
A Hot Wheels Stripes Winnebago, OMFG M.U.S.C.L.E.-like figures, Garbage Pail Kids, Lego Batman, Choose Your Own Adventure — like I said, Will knows me too well! I can only hope to achieve half the level of excitement I felt, when I send this box along to Akron, Ohio for the next stop.
The Summer Swap mascot is none other than Dracula himself, who had a great time visiting my Bat cave.
He got the VIP tour…
… and was quite impressed with his sleeping quarters.
The highlight of his visit to DC, was gaining an audience with Pope Francis earlier today (editor’s note: this photo may be Photoshopped). His holiness was not impressed.
I want to thank Will for the amazingly fun box, and Dex at AEIOU and Sometimes Why for hosting the great Summer Swap of 2015!
Looks great. Can’t wait to get the box!
Will set the bar very high — the box will be on its way out of here in the next few days!
Took me a second to see Dracula with the Pope and President. Too freakin funny! Looks authentic to me.
Thanks for joining in the fun. Great pics!
That’s pretty cool. Nice update to the page.
