Speaking of displaying stuff
May. 18th, 2026 05:01 pmOur house has a storage room off the garage and one of my recent goals is to get everything that belongs to just me out of it. I started with a couple of shelves of glassware, moving just a few items I want to keep into a cabinet in the garage itself. Then I grabbed a box without really checking what's in it and brought it to my office. Next to that box? A few dolls I've always thought I should display. So I ordered some 3M Command shelves and got to work.
The infamous Earring Magic Ken AKA Cock Ring Magic Ken, plus the Drag Queen Doll by Arsenic and Apple Pie. Look closely, it says it's number 1 in a limited edition. Is it true? Beats me.
Shaving Fun Ken and MC Hammer. I got these along with Earring Magic Ken from family friend Barbara's garage sale years ago. That was my second of those Kens, I gave the first to my friend Jayme for his birthday once.
I rode that cleaning and decorating momentum and added some action figures to another wall. They aren't close enough for photos together.
John Travolta as Terl in Battlefield Earth. I found him at a thrift store and picked him up to be a croquet prize at one of our July 4th parties. I'm really glad nobody took me up on the offer because it's one of my favorites possessions. If you like bad movies, Battlefield Earth is one of the worst! Unfortunately not as much fun as a lot of bad movies are, though.
Tuvix from Star Trek Voyager, the subject of one of my favorite and one of the worst episodes of the show, and our eldest dog's namesake. This one was expensive and I'm pretty pissed that they packaged it with molded plastic in front of the toy so you can't really see the details.
Mutated Tom Paris, also from Voyager, but an even more infamous episode called "Threshold." I have a large tattoo based on this episode on my right thigh. It's widely considered the worst one of the series, but it won an Emmy for makeup.
Christian Slater as Will Scarlett in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. I don't know what store it originally came from but its price tag is in pristine condition!
It's nice to have even more stuff on the walls in my room. It all draws the eye away from those glass shelves and the old boring paint job.
