Wow - thanks for doing all this for me gentlemen... a year old Feedback thread and I didn't realize (or remember at least) that it existed.

I probably need to bounce around in here and find your threads too.

I think I've had a grand total of one McDonald's hamburger in my entire life.

I guess I've always been a McNugget man myself.



I've never had the shake either - didn't know it existed until I saw this thread... I generally only get McDonalds 2 or 3 times a year, and only when I'm traveling. 

I might go find myself one of these this weekend.

I ordered everything except for Gammorean Guard, Tarkin, and X-Wing Luke.  But I'm going to re-tool my order when I find out exactly what they do or do not have.

Check your ad to make sure they're running it in your area before you do.  I'd hate to cause people to stop at their stores and not have any luck.

As well they should.  I think they were reluctant to cancel mine right away for hopes that they could call up the distributors and just order more.  It's pretty clear that Star Wars is a small bit of their overall business and they don't really know too much about the GG products.

I have an hour drive..one way.

No traffic at all, but it's still a waste of time, gas and money.

I think it's time I found a new job even though I like my current one.

How rooted are you in your community?

I'd personally probably rather move if I liked my job - but of course there are all kinds of circumstances that factor into something like that...

I actually witnessed a fatal event the day I was leaving for Toy Fair... before I left work.

They are putting a new light rail line in that will run out of downtown, past my home, past my work and then into the suburbs.  Construction started back in September.  Two Friday's ago, some sort of concrete deck thing collapsed on two workers, burying them.  This was 30 feet from my desk out the window (the train is literally going to run next to my office).  They dug and dug and pulled one guy out.  He was okay except for his leg looked messed up.  Then they went back to work and dug for 45 minutes, using heavy machinery to lift disturbingly large pieces of concrete out of the hole.  They even had a firefighter down there with a giant circular saw cutting things at one point. 

We were all just standing there waiting for that triumphant moment when they rescued this other guy - but it didn't come.  An hour after the hole thing started they pulled a body out of the hole. 

It was real sad... all the construction workers were just standing there crying...

Here's an article from the next day:
