Crossing Paths


Recently I received an email from Bill Raeth. He had been in Savannah, GA and stopped at Planet Fun.

Bill noticed that the store was using the classifications I created. Bill said he thought, “it was neat not only to see the M.U.S.C.L.E. figures in a store, but someone who used your guide.”

According to Bill, the store owner said he “researched the heck out your website.”

I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised to hear this news. However, I was surprised that Planet Fun sounded familiar. How would I know a toy store in Savannah, GA?

Because Planet Fun had sent in something very cool to the website – New FLAF (Strong Men) Color.

It’s pretty cool for two UofM users to cross paths in real life. What an odd connection to make.

    Planet Fun is a HUGE retro style toy and video game store. I think the Class A he was wanting either $42 or $47. As you can see in the picture, many of the flesh figures were painted or had a screw in it. It was really neat talking to the guy about M.U.S.C.L.E. and his research of your site and the flaf figures. I think he said he had a bunch of flesh figures to go through, but didn’t think he had any rares.

    I picked up the Home Alone movie’s Talkboy recorder while there.

    That’s cool. Not too big on Planet Fun’s prices there, though. 2 bucks a common muscle? I guess they have to cover their overhead
