The Captain America belt buckle is for my trip this week.
The belt buckle I’ve actually had, but I did pick up a new belt. I got it rather large, too so that I knew it would fit well. But I had to go to the tailor’s shop to get some new holes punched into it. Our Downtown Tailors is a great little place. I walked in and the guy there punched three holes in my new belt quickly and I know he wasn’t going to take any money but I insisted. He only charged me a dollar. I know that punching three holes in a belt isn’t a major task but I had to pay him something.
This coming Thursday is a big day. I will be heading to LA (All Expenses for Travel are being paid for. Opinions as always are 100% my own) to screen the upcoming movie, Avengers: Age of Ultron. But I’m not just flying across the country to watch a movie. No, there is going to be so much more happening. To prepare for the event I went to the Mall yesterday with the family to pick up a few things. But I already had a bunch of Marvel stuff on hand because I have been a fan for a long time. Pictured are a few things that I’ll be bringing with me on the trip. I am sure I have a few more things that will be coming with me as well.
I have had a Captain America Shield belt buckle for a while now. I just ordered a new belt. I had picked one up from Hot Topic but it didn’t work so well. That new belt should arrive on Monday. I also bought a Marvel wallet at Hot Topic that I love but forgot to take it out of my pocket for the photo. I’ll have to shoot that later. There is a Captain America Shield T-Shirt that my sister got me for my birthday. I grabbed a roll of Avengers themed tape. Not sure what I’m going to do with that. I also grabbed a Captain America Funko pop keychain. Rounding out my stuff are two things from my most recent Loot Crate themed COVERT. The are a Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. lanyard, the one that Agent Eric Koenig was always reminding people that they need. I also have a spy watch that tell the time when you press the watch face. Otherwise it is flat black.
It is funny. I sometimes think that I am like Iron Man but the more and more I gravitate towards Captain America. I don’t think I could pull off the cool factor that Tony Stark has. I’m more the quiet confidence of Steve Rogers. Can’t wait to see these two in action at the movie. I also can’t wait to meet Chris Evans, the actor that plays Captain America, while at the #AvengersEvent. See who else I’m going to interview below.
