Nerdy History Toys

Now this is my kind of action figure!  We gave Reese this "Dutch Master and easel" set in his stocking this Christmas.



And how about these Shrinky Dinks? I haven't tried them out yet . . . I suppose I got them for the kids (too), so they can enjoy them one day when they are old enough to understand beheaded wives/queens and that whole English Reformation thing, but young enough to still appreciate shrinky dinks.  Not sure when that nexus would occur.  And poor Henry VIII, a man of such massive girth and power . . . I bet he would have thundered about some castle if he had known he'd be reduced in future generations to a "shrinkle."
