Kellogg’s Rice Krispies Captain Scarlett Spectrum Bunker! In 1993 you could collect tokens to send in for Vivid Imaginations Captain Scarlett vehicles. To compliment them they printed cardboard Spectrum facilities to make on the boxes. The bunker was super cool with opening doors & working runway!

The bunker assembled! A Spectrum Helicopter sits on the helipad as an SPC approaches the bunker

The SPC enters the bunker, safe from Mysteron attack (… or is it?)

"Punk felt to me like the closest I could ever get to seeing Elvis Presley in 1956. It was a re-establishment with rock’s roots. The snotty little kids taking it back. Making it dangerous again." #JakeBurns
Have a nice #FingersFriday everyone.

The song of the week is "Title Holder" by The Interrupters

"Title Holder" is about resilience and determination. The song radiates the fighting spirit.

Turn it up and "Live Like a Warrior and Never Let Them Break You Down"
