I went back to the local Walmart's this morning in hopes to find more DC Funko Kinder Joy eggs. Unfortunately, there is still an empty spot on the shelf where I found the earlier ones. The front of the shell has a little Joker image on it. One side of the inserts in all the ones I have gotten show Joker, Wonder Woman, Batman, Superman, Harley Quinn and Batgirl (I wish it was a checklist). I really wish I could download the app.

Happy Election Day 2024
It's Election Day and I'm not telling you who I'm voting for but you can probably guess.

DC Funko Kinder Joy Batgirl Miniature Figure
I picked up this DC Funko Kinder Joy Batgirl Miniature Figure at the local Walmart's last Saturday. She has two half circle holes in the back of her crowl so you can put the string through them. I'm surprised that she doesn't fall over easy due to her small feet and big head. I like this and would like to get more from the set but the store didn't have any left this past Saturday.
Yes, the front picture is blurry. I tried several times but finally gave up. My digital camera just didn't want to cooperate with me.

DC Funko Kinder Joy Supergirl Cell Phone Holder
This DC Funko Kinder Joy Supergirl Cell Phone Holder was found at the local Walmart's a couple of weeks ago. The actual holder looks like a brick wall with some bricks missing. The back of her head has a hole, which is odd because the Green Lantern one has a solid head.

DC Funko Kinder Joy Green Lantern Cell Phone Holder
The local Walmart's finally had a case of the DC Funko Kinder Joy eggs two weeks ago. I picked up two and got a Green Lantern cell phone holder and a mini Supergirl figure (I'll post about that one on another day). I picked up two last Saturday for they still had half a case. I ended up with a mini Batgirl figure (another post for another day) and another Green Lantern cell phone holder. I went back last Tuesday but they were all gone (they now have more of last year's Harry Potter Kinder Joy eggs). This was the John Stewart as Green Lantern, which is pretty cool (tip: it works better with two).

Countdown to Halloween 2024 Day 31: Breaking News
We only had eighteen ghouls and goblins this year. That's three more than what we had last year. We handed out Chewy Nerds and Smarties this year. We had a little bit left over along with an untouched bag of Butterfingers.
Countdown to Halloween 2024 Day 31 Bonus: McDonald's White Boo Bucket 2024
You know that it had to happen for I just couldn't help myself. I got another Halloween Happy Meal from McDonald's a few nights ago and got this White Boo Bucket. This is another fuzzy monster but doesn't have the horns that the blue one has. The first face looks kind of sad or low on energy.
The second face looks a lot happier.
The third face looks pretty shocked that someone is reaching in for treats.
The front of the insert has various stickers including spider, ghost, pumpkin, demon wings and mittens.
The back of the insert features another black and white image that you can color plus a how many can you find game.
Countdown to Halloween 2024 Day 31: Vote Elvira 2024
November 5, 2024 is Election Day so be sure to cast your vote for the next President of the United States. Elvira has a lot of election 2024 merchandise at her official website including this Vote Elvira 2024 bumper sticker. She'll get my vote for sure. I hope you enjoyed this year's Countdown to Halloween.

Countdown to Halloween 2024 Day 30 Bonus: Horror and Fantasy Illustrated 2024 Pinup Special
Here's a special bonus treat for this week's women Wednesday. Zenescope Entertainment's Horror and Fantasy Illustrated 2024 Pinup Special came out earlier this month. The issue starts off with a special eight-page science fiction story.
The rest of the issue is filled with pinups of various women by different artists. The artwork includes fantasy, horror and science fiction. My favorite has to be the sexy mummy by Vinz El Tabanas
The Horror and fantasy Illustrated 2024 Pinup Special has several alternate covers. My favorite is Cover A featuring a demoness by Pierluigi Abbondanza.
Countdown to Halloween 2024 Day 30: Scream Queens 3 Trading Cards Trio
My one big Halloween purchase this year was a set of sixty Scream Queens 3 trading cards. This is not based on the 2015 tv series but on the magazine that lasted from 1993 to 2002. It was also known as Scream Queens Illustrated and mostly featured b-movie actresses mostly from horror movies in stages of undress. It seems fitting that I present three trading cards from the set as the last Women's Wednesday post for this Halloween. Brinke Stevens is a sexy vampire on #7 while Deborah Dutch appears with a skull on #9. Finally, #50 features Jeanie Brown playing cards with a skeleton.

Countdown to Halloween 2024 Day 29: Universal Monsters: Frankenstein #1-3
Universal Monsters: Frankenstein #1 from Image Comics and Skybound Entertainment was released in August while #2 hit the newsstands in September and #3 came out this month. The covers and interior artwork of all three are great with what I want to call dayglo coloration. The series is loosely based on the 1931 movie starring Boris Karloff as the monster.

Countdown to Halloween 2024 Day 27 Bonus: Werewolf by Night Red Band #1 & 2
Marvel's Werewolf by Night: Red Band #1 came out in August and finds Jack Russell living in a gothic Bavarian castle that mysteriously appeared in the Colorado Rockies. He finds the mutilated bodies of two friends in the woods after a night of being the werewolf but he can't remember what happened. Meanwhile in a Transylvania monastery, Deathwatch and the Hood takes over what's left of the Darkholder vampires. Elsa Bloodstone then arrives at the castle and finds Jack chained but he changes before attacking her. Back in Transylvania, the Darkholders are creating chaos and turning everybody into vampires before taking over Dracula's castle.
Werewolf by Night: Red Band #2 came out in September and opened with the Lord Hood talking to Granny Dorgana while the Darkholders are moving into Bran Castle aka Castle Dracula. He presents her with a magical dagger, which she uses to cast a spell that locates a descendant of Cthon's hound thrall. Jack and Elsa have a nice discussion about his new frenzy but they end up fighting and she leaves. She goes to the Midnight Mission to talk to Mr. Knight (Moon Knight in a white suit). Khonshu the moong god speaks to her about Jack's situation and agrees to help. Deathwatch and some Darkholders make a visit to Jack moments before he changes into the werewolf. Elsa and Moon Knight arrive and joins the battle. Deathwatch escapes by a portal but Elsa and Moon Knight now have to stop the werewolf from attacking two young hikers. Deathwatch arrives back in Bran Castle and presents Granny Dorgana a pound of Jack's flesh but she requires more.
Werewolf by Night: Red Band #3 comes out this month but I haven't read it yet and I will post it after I do.
