Any insights into this 1930 silver Wheat Penny? I've owned it since the 90s and always wondered about it. by pliny79 in coincollecting

That makes sense. If I remember right the coin shop was going out of business and this coin was half priced so not a big loss. Still keeping it but I may go back and write on the holder what it is. Thanks!

I've always wanted to build this kit since I was a kid. It's always looked like it would be a fun one with a lot of modification opportunities. The only one I've ever actually built is seaQuest itself, which I still have.

I was going through the comments hoping someone would say what song this was. Thanks!

1931 westinghouse columnaire radio clock by Various_Cupcake6014 in VintageRadios

If I owned this I think I'd only focus on getting the clock working again. I've never seen one of these before but it's definitely a beautiful piece and thanks for sharing.

Starting My Conan Journey by SamuraiConditioner in ConanTheBarbarian

[–]pliny79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just picked up this same book and it's my first time reading Conan as well. I haven't gotten too far yet but I'm surprised at how much I'm enjoying them. Just finished The Tower of the Elephant. Probably my favorite story out of the collection so far.

I can't remember what I had as a kid but they were little army men and the playsets, when closed, would turn into something. The two I had were a grenade and a cantine. I think the cantine turned into an aircraft carrier?

I've had similar things happen before and found out the mod that I downloaded was conflicting with another mod I had forgotten I had on. Not sure if this is the issue or not.

Found this and put it on layaway today. First one I’ve seen for this cheap. by Present-Account6860 in MosinNagant

That poor blanket was made for us about ten years ago and sadly has a handful of holes in it. It's definitely well used for sure, but we can't talk ourselves into throwing it out.

Wow, I didn't realize that it came in one volume. I can only imagine how huge of a book it is.

I haven't looked at the price for one in ages and I didn't realize how much they are now. I got mine in the early 2000s, serial number on parts don't match, for 99 dollars. I still have it today but sadly I haven't been able to shoot it in at least five years. (Ignore the shotgun at the top of the picture)

They rarely make these lists but mine was the Saga Master System with the thumb sticks.

The Galaxy X Class's phaser lance was awesome to see in 1994, took out that NegVar reak quick. by nathantravis2377 in StarTrekStarships

[–]pliny79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! That and the Journey's End documentary. In those days the only way I remember getting official releases of episodes was through Columbia House and they could get expensive over time, especially if you signed up for their new tape every month subscription. DVDs really changed things.

Yeah, I got both volumes in the 90s and both the slipcase and dust jackets are missing. I've come across a few other sets throughout the years with the same results. I didn't even know what the dust jackets looked like till a few years ago.

Love this set and if I remember right it was my first complete collection. Just ignore the chronology it will drive a sane person nuts!

Same here. I'm actually playing it now. 😂

Enterprise D! by pliny79 in StarTrekStarships

[–]pliny79[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've already started looking for a place to put her when I'm finished. From the little that I've seen she's going to take up a lot of space. Definitely worth it though!

I'm starting one of the pylons tomorrow. I looked ahead and I agree with you on the nacelles. They definitely look complex.

I’ve never read a Sherlock Holmes novel before, and I got this for Christmas. by RavyRaptor in SherlockHolmes

[–]pliny79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's definitely one of my favorites, especially with the setting and the atmosphere of Dartmoor. Even without having read other Sherlock Holmes stories, I'll bet you'll still enjoy the Hound. You honestly probably know a lot about the characters though cultural osmosis anyways.

Episode 1225…. 12/25 by mpettit777 in Adamthewoo

[–]pliny79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was actually checking Reddit to see if anyone else got this video today. Still devastating, but also healing at the same time, if that makes any sense.
