When you are stranded in the Delta Quadrant and can't fly home to your loved ones - you still can celebrate it with your new family! Happy Thanksgiving!

The aftermath of the party. This happened by accident, thankfully after I had taken the other pictures. Would have not wanted to set up all of that again.
I think it looks hilarious, must have been a helluva party! Only Harry is still sitting there, not caring what is happening about him, ready for the next course.

Introduction of the Third Doctor, especially for [livejournal.com profile] alumfelga !
I think he looks really great.
I only have some minor quibble, as on one side of the overcoat you can see the red of the inside on the outside, it is not sewn in a neat line. They told me to send it back to get a new one but I am afraid of losing it so I won't do that. He'll have to live with it.

And some crossover fun! I noticed they have the same magnifier ;)

I really should not be allowed into any shops... I got this truck by Lambertz for my brother for Christmas. It is filled with Lebkuchen / gingerbread.

I thought Alfred would make a good chauffeur in his grey coat, don't you think? Also, nice cane, Alfred!

On the roof there is a ladder and a spare tire!

I made da Vinci's studio, the holodeck program that Kathryn uses in Voyager. I even bought a da Vinci figure for it and a flying machine he constructed. And look at the wee set of set squares!

Last year I did this picture with Chakotay as a ghost.

This year there was a second part, inspired by a comment on Twitter:

Mulder is telling a ghost story.
Then at night a real ghost turns up.
"Scully! Scully, wake up! You'll never believe this!"

I got the new Mansion set from Extreme Sets and I love it! But it is huge!
Some things like the pillars you need to fold, but that is easy. It also comes with a foldable clock and TV. I have not yet folded up the staircase.

Alfred would have loved this, too bad I didn't have it during "Gotham" times.

A friend offered to send me her broken Chakotay who had lost an arm, for me to use as spare parts for my customizing work. Instead I sent her one of my many leftover arms, as I often only need the head to put on other figures. It also inspired me to this story!

Our team is looking for new food on a planet. And today is National Mushroom Day. I thought these pictures are very fitting.

The Doctor wants to show off his new sickbay equipment.

I already had pictures with Chakotay lying in a sickbay bed, so this time it had to be Kathryn ;)

I tried to clean my kitchen table. I went to put the Octoberfest beer mugs away. I found coffee grinders instead and got inspired. It's always like this!
Remember when the children onboard had a science fair? Kathryn wants to take part with her collection!
(hope I got the red one right, it is unfamiliar to me)

It would be Octoberfest time in Germany right now (yes, in September, weird as it is) but it's cancelled for the second time. But Tom and Harry just make their own at the holodeck! I even bought special Bavarian beer mugs for them.

Let's take a trip down memory lane! Who else had these? [livejournal.com profile] vjezkova maybe? It's been ages since I took them out. I photographed them for a friend.

Every child in the GDR had these rubber Indians and Cowboys. The boys played with them in the sandbox. I begged my parents for some. What do you want with them, they asked. The first two I got were the chief and the sitting woman. That's not what I had wanted but soon got more. I did not play fights with them, just was admiring the tiny details and accessories and the different poses. This is how my love for miniatures / figures started. They are 8 cm, about 3" high.

Find yourself someone to watch a sunset with:

On the other hand, forget the sunset and do something better ;)

He thought she was painting the sunset, but she was painting him instead.

Seems Chakotay needs not only to be wary of monkeys:

The Baywatch rescue team arrives (never thought I would ever use those again!)

But lo and behold, it was actually only a movie set! Kathryn was in no danger!

Just John, Bob and Kate having a pizza party. Remember the video that went around the internet some months ago?
But first there was an accident, the oven was too hot. First aid had to be administered. Next time you should use the pot cloth!

Also, these pictures were shot out of order, and the continuity girl was not paying attention! In case you were wondering.

Just a nice day at the beach.

But then Kayo turned up and also wanted to try this game.

And he scores!

And then a Twitter friend suggested Kathryn kisses the winner. I had nothing to do with this!

Remember John Raymond Arnold from "Jurassic Park"? No? He's the guy that goes to fix something and then later all they find of him is his arm. Naturally, I had to get him. Mostly for the awesome computer he comes with!

This all started with me buying Jeff Goldblum aka Ian Malcolm from the Amber Line. Then next Dennis Nedry and the Dilophosaurus came out, and I got him too. I'm not even that much of a Jurrassic Park fan, but you know me! Always nice to have stuff to play with!

So I just set up some office scenes. This is Janine Melnitz from Ghostbusters as secretary.

And the Happy Worker Geekman.
