Not Your Usual Playtime

View this post on Instagram

SWIPE thru to view past images of my own 1/6th-scaled hobby collection, featuring scaled props and accessories I'd procured and used for toy-diorama photo-shoots! Most (if not all) images are well over a decade old (pre-2006), and more can be seen on my #Facebook hobby-page at https://www.facebook.com/TOYSREVIL16/ or my hobby-blog at http://toysrevil16.blogspot.com. Told you *I LIKE TOYS* ... heh. #throwbacktoythursday #throwbackthursday #mytoylife #toylife

Prepping and uploading these 1/6th images for this #throwbacktoythursday blogpost on TOYSREVIL really stirred up some feels for my 1/6th toys of the past ... mores that I dare admit, and have been constantly keeping bottled up within me, ever since coming back home from Stroke in 2010 - of what I had hoped to do, achieve with my collection, but simply unable to, due to simple, practical reasons/excuses of (A) No space, and (B) No easy access.

And all I can frustratingly do, is look back at these low-res images of what I had achieved with play, quite literally "back in the day", while right here-and-now, I am floating in limbo, unable to move forward. What-might to-people seem like "play", but to me there is a more serious underlining semblance of self-evolution I am aiming for, or at least hope to one day "soon" ... until then? Look at old images to remind myself of what I had wanted to do..

Actual "picture proof" that I was/am a toys/props-hoarder back in the (1/6 hobby) day! Blogged #onTOYSREVIL: https://bit.ly/2Evvs5O "Props for My Toys" for #throwbacktoythursday ... this was a table-top build for pics and video (See on #youtube: https://youtu.be/jJEYnnRi8pw), with nothing being "permanent". SWIPE to see images of the still snaps (some with obvious photo manipulation) done to post on a toy-forum to share = my rendition of an adult grown up #HermoineGranger, influenced by #HarryPotter movies ... this was circa 2006? #throwbackthursday #mytoylife #toylife #IamTOYSREVIL
