Great finale. Jacob is now my favorite character. I hope we see more of him.

I'm going to guess Jack and the group cause the event that makes the hatch necessary. It will probably also be how they get back to the present. Richard will probably see them disappear and think they died. Or I could be way off. Part of the fun of this show is the speculation.

I will be surprised if the Vikings don't end up with Favre. It will make the owners tons of cash. Without him, they are looking at blackouts because the fans hate Childress. With him, they are looking at sellouts, high ratings for every game especially the MNF one vs the Pack, tons of purple #4 jerseys selling and at least one playoff win if Brett stays healthy. He won't have to win games for the Vikings, just be a game manager. He might have to throw 20-25 times a game as opposed to 35-40. That should save his shoulder. Berrian is a top notch WR and Sidney Rice should benefit from having a real QB throw to him. The drafting of Harvin should also help the offense if Baldy and his monkey boy OC can draw up some plays for him. Adrian Peterson will also benefit and probably rush for 2000 yards if healthy. I realize this is a lot of ifs. If everything goes wrong and the Vikings fall on their butts, then hopefully Childress is canned and they find a real head coach.

I have not picked up any of the releases yet, but I will take a shot at Hordak. If I get one, I will be happy.

Smalljoes will probably get my dollar for the Stinger and FLAK/Claw if they sell them outside of the case. Otherwise I will be watching Hasbro's site. I really hope the wave 14 figures eventually see a release to stores or online as well. I want that Falcon.

Target has Indy stuff on sale this week. Figures are 6.74, vehicles are 17.99 and deluxes are 8.99. The Adventure Heroes and role playing toys are also on sale. I believe that if you bought any of the stuff at regular price within the last 30 days and still have your receipt, Target will give you the sale price. I'm going there later to find out for certain. I'll get about ten dollars back.

People started finding wave 8 in Arizona and California today at WalMarts from what I read on other sites.

The Kevin subplot was hilarious. Creed was classic. What do I do here? I should have written it down.

Just finished up the last two Narnia books. I had put them off for a while and decided finally to do it. Pretty glad I'm done. I just picked up Runemarks by Joanne Harris and started reading that. Pretty good stuff so far. It's about the Norse gods and the world after Ragnarok.

Crazy that they are going to have a Matt Trakker figure in this line, although probably no crazier than the Fridge, Sgt Slaughter or Rowdy Roddy Piper.

The local TRU has exactly what Brian posted. The Targets and Walmarts that put them out have the toys in the regular isle. The displays are pretty picked over.

I hear what you're saying. I guess it's because Indy toys haven't been at retail since the early 80's and stores don't know what to expect at this point. They probably just ordered enough to fill the pegs initially and know they can get more if they need it. It's actually not as bad as the GI Joe 25th line has been. The new waves always sell out quickly and then are not seen for weeks. I don't know why stores aren't keeping those in stock. I guess it's probably better than having things warm the pegs like the last Masters of the Universe line did, but that IMO was on Mattel for moronic case assortments. Somewhere in between would be ideal but probably hard to do.
