I'm curious to see the result.

Today, I worked on the project in all the free time I had and completed it.

I would like to give brief information.

- I used an original VHS tape.

- I unscrewed the tape and placed the tape inside so that it would not break.

- I placed crumpled freezer bags for the transparent parts where we see the tape inside the tape and used them as an effect.

- Then I painted the transparent parts with dark brown and after it dried, I tried to create a rust and dirt effect.

- For the two labels I would stick on them, I applied a toy collector's idea and soaked the papers in brewed cold tea.

The papers turned a little yellow. Then I mixed brown and black paint in appropriate tones. And I gave the labels a dirt effect.

I continued the project by imagining that this tape had been waiting for a long time and had been in a humid and damp environment. Finally, I completed the project by giving the entire tape a dirt and rust effect.

Thank you.

Hello everyone again.

Some new objects added to the collection.

Giraffe, one of the Toys R Us mascots, was added to the collection. I actually had the plush toy version in my collection. However, the figure version from the 90s is included in my collection for the first time. This is important to me.

The figure of the character Noody, who first appeared in 1949, was added to the collection.

I continue to expand the James Bond Jr. series. Dr. Derange was added to the collection.

And again, the Kenner Batman series, which has a very important place in my life. A new Robin figure was added to the collection.

The Mr. Freeze keychain from 1997 was added to the collection. It has really great details and weight.

The Kermit figure from the Muppets' NHL Mcdonalds special series from the 90s was added to the collection.

Finally, a playmobil from the Naruto series and Vectis magazines were added to the collection. The magazines contain detailed information about many old toys.

I don't know anything about your new additions. I find the Vectis magazines particularly interesting.

Thank you very much. You can ask any questions about any toy you are curious about. I will try to give as much information as I can. I am sharing another photo about Vectis magazines.

There are photos of many old toys in it. There is also written information.
