Dad's Collection: Peewee Herman

Some of you may have noticed a little poll on the old blog, "What should I be for Halloween?" Well, the costume idea that won out in the end was Pee-Wee Herman! Hurray! Well, sadly, I couldn't for the life of me find a grey suit, a red bow tie, or a nice white pair of dress shoes for a decent Peewee costume. I feel like I totally jipped my loyal readers! I'm so sorry! Can you all ever forgive me!?
I apologize!!!...forgiven???
Man, Pee-Wee's house is so awesome! He doesn't care what time of year it is, he celebrates every holiday all at once. Pee-Wee's Big Adventure is just an amazing movie, I need to buy a copy already, what's wrong with me!

 It's too bad, but my wife is absolutely terrified of Pee-Wee and hates him with a passion. So, maybe it's a good thing I wasn't able to get a costume together. 

 So, to make it up to you, I decided to feature my Dad's vintage Pee-Wee Herman figure! That's just as cool, right?







The background looks like it's to scale with Pee-Wee! So weird, but cool!

      I've only seen the first 10 minutes or so of Big Top Pee-Wee. I really need to remedy that and finish it! Funny thing is my wife LOVES egg salad sandwiches. They're alright.

      I know, I really need to show my Dad the blogging ropes! He's way way into Pinterest, but I think it would be totally sweet if he had a blog too. Then we could read each others blog and it would be grand! I know he reads my blog, so Dad, if you're reading this, you should totally start a blog! You could call it "Dad's Cool Toys n' Stuff" or something. Do it! I'll show you how, it's easy! :)

    This is awesome. I love Pee-Wee, and dressed up as him when I was 8. Yes, I resembled him quite a bit as a kid. It's pretty cool that your dad owned that doll.

      That's so cool! Do you have any old pictures of you as Pee-Wee? It's crazy how much the doll resembles Pee-Wee. Yeah, my Dad has tons of cool stuff you'd never guess he owns! As far as collecting goes I learned from the best!
