Today is the first Anniversary of this website and the year sure has flown by quickly! Content has increased dramatically since it was just a few pages of photos and a couple of reviews way back in late 2016. Since then, there’s been over 200 News and other posts made to the front page – I like to keep the content on the front page turning over as regularly as I can so frequent visitors have a reason to come back. I’m trying to keep up with your expectations. I’ve also kept my dedication consistent and there’s been no hiatus for me – just a determined effort to keep updating the site – and its reputation.  That’s not stopping any time soon.

There’s over 80 pages of content here, now; and it ranges from action figure reviews, of which there are over 30 along with a selection of other articles and features. There’s the gallery pages that showcase the 1979 Kenner ALIEN and its successors.  Also a growing showcase featuring Kenner prototype ALIEN figures. All of this content is expected to see additional growth during the next 12 months. So, yeah.  I got content covered; and you want more? It’s coming!

Generally, I am looking forward to what this coming year brings and this website is ticking over very well.

It’s been an eventful and positive experience running HIDEOUS PLASTIC. I did slightly alter the focus of the site after an unsuccessful KickStarter campaign for my book earlier this year.  I  increased the amount of content here so more people would find the site rewarding and become aware of the book that is just sitting in the background, waiting. I’ll be continuing to manage the site in the New Year with this goal in mind. Hopefully, the book will make its way out to the world late next year. There’s no rush, though; as my publisher is patiently sitting in the wings, waiting for me to be financially viable to proceed. See update below.

Please bookmark this site. It is frequently updated with News, reviews and occasionally other items of interest to anyone who is an ALIEN toy and action figure enthusiast.

Thank you to everyone who has visited during the course of the past year. It means a lot to me to see you return.
