Strange(r) Things are Afoot at the Spectra

And with today's post we have reached the finish line for the 4th Annual Save Second Base Event.

Thank you for all the comments and participating in all the contests I ran this month.  Cards will all ship the first week of November.  Please link back to my blog and The National Breast Cancer Foundation.  It's important to share awareness all year long.

So with today's post, allow me to introduce...

Fricking Winona Ryder!!!!

Winona Fricking Ryder!!!

Anyone remember that scene from Heathers?

Winona is a treat at award shows

She is immortal in Hollywood

She's played the bad girl

And the good girl

And she has one of the best cinematic bounces in history.

She has a long history with Keanu Reeves.

Haven't I seen her wear that outfit before?

She barely aged in almost 30 years.


She isn't ever type casted, but often times she appears in supernatural movies/shows of some sort.

When it comes to a supernatural or unusual mind, very few outpace the mind of Tim Burton.  It is for that reason that on Halloween I will discuss how she has appeared in a trio of Tim Burton movies.

Her first feature lead role was in Beetlejuice

She would later pair up with Burton again in the Johnny Depp star performance, Edward Scissorhands.

She then lent her voice in the animated feature Frankenweenie.

That is a Triple T(h)reat and all are acceptable to watch for Halloween purposes.

No tricks here. This 2017 Chronicles Spectra triple relic Triple Threat card contains pieces that are guaranteed by Panini to have been game used.

Cardboard Cameos: "No Heartbeat"

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness month.  Visit the official site here.

Breast Cancer will be detected in one of eight women in the US each year.
It is the second leading cause of cancer death among women each year.
On average every 2 minutes a woman will be diagnosed with breast cancer and every 13 minutes one person will die from breast cancer.
There are currently 33 million breast cancer survivors in the USA.

It's important to support the research for cancer.  Breast Cancer is often associated with the color pink so I will be showing off some pink Cutch cards.

In addition, you can expect to see some boobs with each post.  Who doesn't love boobs?

So let's start with what we're hoping to save!

Elvira may be the obvious choice for Halloween....

BUT....

I am going with a spunky young actress from my favorite show to binge watch

Rose McIver

Is a more modern actress of the undead, and star of one of my favorite TV shows

Not everyone wants to be associated with geek cult roles, but Rose McIver has done exceptional in that role.

Appearing in Power Rangers:RPM may have helped her get notoriezed for roles in Once Upon a Time before she became the leading role in iZombie.

She may not be as busty as some of the other lovely ladies I have shown this month, but she is still sexy AF.

In the tv series iZombie, Liv played by McIver has to fill the void of living a normal human life after being exposed as a zombie.

She eats the brains of victims and gets flashes of their memories to help solve the "whodunit" style mysteries.

She has a very spunky personality similar to another of Rob Thomas' TV creations, Veronica Mars, who I showed way earlier this month.

She seemed the perfect way to bookend this month as we celebrate Halloween as she also appeared as Tinkerbelle on Once Upon a Time.

In iZombie, the brains are a short term fix for ultimately what stops her from filling void of being undead.

As you can see on the back of this card
Andrew Mccutchen claims that Felipe (Rivero) Vazquez has "No Heartbeat"

The back of this card is a 2018 Topps Pink Felipe Rivero card.

A good backside can be just as good as the front.

Happy Halloween Everyone!!!

I hope you all enjoyed this year's 2nd Annual (3rd if you remember my TreasureRoom blog) Save The Boobies event.

Remember that 1 in 8 women will be detected with breast cancer and that for as little as $150 mammogram check you can help early detection.

Let's All Help Save Second Base!!!
