Every Episode you show us something precious to us. This episode you show us what is most precious to you. Thank you, was not expecting and loved it. Keep strong, you "freak". :)
Awesome video, man. Really nice to see the progression of this channel/character. The amount of editing/sound/makeup/etc in your videos is astounding and I hope your fans realize how much work you are putting into these as a young channel.
I Love your videos and much to the dismay of my partner and my wallet you have inspired me to buy many new collectibles I didn't know about. Every time I see you upload a new video I think I wonder what collectible I will be talked into buying next.😁
I just got the hot toys avp warrior and that cain model kit(although I have no idea if I will ever finish it) thanks for sharing all of these awesome toys
@viperthelizard6286 That HT avp warrior is surprisingly hefty, it feels well built even after all this time. Which color did you get? I know that you told me in a previous post that you got one from japan, but I can't remember if you said if it was the avp or one of the others. As for cain, I personally find it easiest to work on one small part at a time. Like I will grind away at a foot until I am happy and then move on to another part later, I find that this helps me not rush the process.
Thanks. And yeah, everyone has been so great and supportive that I thought it would be a good time to reveal some more personal things about me and the process. Plus, my daughters have been wanting to be in another video ever since the art the clown one 😄 And since they had so much interest, I am working on a short horror film with them currently, which is one of the projects that I alluded to in the video.
@@strangeform That’s awesome! And sounds like a lot of fun. My son would love to work on making a horror film. I actually did special effect makeup for years and worked for a company that made animatronics for Disney and universal. But he was too young to remember,
@andrewcraig3282 Wow, that is awesome. You must have some really interesting stories. I'm sure you bring some of those experiences to your parenting. I did a few direct to video things and my wife and I decided to move to Hollywood so I could pursue acting (what I really wanted to do was writing, directing, and practical fx, but thought acting would be a good way to get my foot in the door)... however, we got pregnant! (my wife more than me, I guess😄), and LA wasn't where we wanted to start a family, so back to Seattle it was. Fast forward... The pandemic bringing things into sharp focus (seriously, my covid infection story is probably worth a whole episode), now I am going after what I have always wanted to do, which is to eventually publish my book and direct a film, and youtube seemed like the best route to build an audience of like-minded people as i move towards that goal. A lot of people think that having a family gets in the way of your dream, but it was always the opposite for me. My family is the dream, I try not to let anything else get in the way of that, if I never achieve any of my career goals I will still be content with what I did with my life.
I love your totally honest and beyond entertaining reviews !!! I have to add, you have one of the most unique presentations out there...your creativity is excellent !!! I had a feeling your channel name was a Xeno reference...and of course Decker is a great choice !!! Also, i have actually had my 93 yr old Mother view your vids....she also loves them ....and she is not even a Collector...LOL
Oh man you’re into photography ! I’ve dabbled in photography taking photos of my action figures in hopes of honing my skills and making a career of it. Thanks for the about me video.. I enjoyed it
Awesome! Action figures photography skills scale up nicely, same basic principles. As for a career, I don't want to discourage you at all, but I will warn you that the old joke in the industry is "how do you make a million dollars as a photographer...start with two million. My advice is, once you have your technical skills down, network, network, network. The industry doesn't reward skill as much as it rewards tenacity. Weddings are where a lot of regular income is made, but it is also where you are most likely to be sued. Breaking into fashion/beauty or sports and lifestyle is difficult without making contacts, so it's not a bad idea to offer to shadow someone for a while. And lastly, always remember that you want to be a photographer with 10 years of experience, not one year ten times. Never stop learning and always push yourself to experiment past your comfort zone. And make sure that you never let it become a "job".😄😉
Well, there goes my theory that you were the host of "The Review Spot" channel who was exploring his dark side. Lol. I bet that if you raised your pitch and a friendly affectation, you could do a great impression. Love the channel and the presentation.
Ha, yeah, I can see that. I do periodically watch his channel as well as many others, like DeanKnight and frogyflips. There are so many charismatic reviewers who have an awesome ability to speak off the cuff. I just wanted to do something... a little different.
@strangeform It IS different. A new take is appreciated. Your reviews are the ones I look the most forward to. I hope to see the channel continue ro grow and am looking forward to your other creative endeavors like your art and writing as well. Keep going.
@@strangeform Horror & Monster Collectibles is another one I watch often, he' s a very nice and honest guy with an insane collection. Still your videos are more artsy and are something else. I said it before even if I'm not particiulary interested in the item you review I still watch them more than once for their entertainment value which is very high!
Hey, just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate that. I will use this to get an item for the show, and if it's okay with you, I would like to mention you in that video. Thanks again.
Oh man, close to the SeaTac airport there isn't much, it's actually kind of dicey unfortunately (so be safe when walking around there). How long is the layover? And do you have transportation. Because it would definitely be worth it to go up the i5 corridor to Bobakhan in Everett. That place is really great and not overpriced. Down town seattle there is Golden Age Collectables in the Pike Place Market, but they are really expensive and have no parking. Phantom Zone Comics in Southcenter often has Hiya figures and is a quick cab ride from the airport, but I can't say for sure. If you ever get a chance, you should visit Bobakhan at some point, lots of gi joe, transformers, star wars, as well as an entire Alien section. That is the store I miss most (and the food, WA has much better food than new england). However, if you ever come through boston, I know exactly where you could go to get hiya figures. There are more toy stores here, but there is also much greater population density, so stuff can be hard to find than in wa.
It's real. When there are big wind storms, I feel like I should be screaming out my mother's name to save the childlike empress and Fantastica from the Nothing.

Well, your partner (and your wallet) can blame me, I clearly tell everyone to Never. Stop. Collecting. In every episode 😄

And it would be awesome if you did a video where you show how to make the action figure of yourself. I wou

Tus videos son asombroso me encanta la estética, espero que tu canal cresca mucho, se lo merece 😸
Thank you so much, I'm really glad you like the videos. A lot more coming soon.
Wow! Learned a lot about you I didn’t know that’s super cool! LOVE the art! And may pick up your book and give it a read when it’s ready

I have a layover flight at Seattle this Thursday. Any suggestions for a store close to the airport that sells Hiya Aliens?

Is the Attic space, A stage Or Is it real?
