Jazz really should be the Porsche GT2, IMO.

They're pretty big. Proving that I'm a complete dumbass when it comes to this glowing box, I can't figure out how to resize 'em. Should I send anyway?

Wow, amazing how a rant will kill a thread, huh?
Anyway, with all these clearances, I've been able to pick up custom fodder. So far, I've bought an Orko, Trapjaw, and regular He-Man, and made some really awesome customs. I made an Evil Orko, based on a fan-fic I wrote where Orko became Skeletor's familiar. I blackwashed the Trapjaw and added some painted-on blood to his hook and claw. It's neat. it's my favorite work too.
And the He-Man- I made a battle-worn version, with a lot of black mud and soot, and scrapes and cuts on his body. I also painted on blood to his sword and axe, to a chilling effect. It's certainly my most ambitious custom, but I'd have to post pics so you can see what I'm talking about. How do I go aobut that? I've got them on my computer, but I don't have the first clue about posting them here.

I read at TNI that they've been cancelled after all. Never even got to see the things.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: motorcycle

Screw motorcycles. Buy a Sea-Doo like me. Yeah, you can only use it three or four months a year, depending on where you live, but it doesn't hurt near as much to hit water as it does concrete and asphalt.

Saga '02-'04 / Re: I'm digging the new slimmed down bubbles!
« on: January 10, 2004, 07:18 PM »
I had to do some grocery shopping at Target today, and I found Luke Jedi and R1-G4. Thankfully, because of the smaller bubbles, I was able to handle the things with ease. Thanks Hasbro.

OK, I found the Hendrix figure at Spencer's the other day. ($16. Ouch!) And I'm wondering where the Zep figures are.
BTW, Happy Belated Birthday to Jimmy Page, who turned 60 yesterday.

I bought a cheap one. There's only two left here. Now I need to find the single-packed Biker Scout.

Whoa, need a mop...
Any news of a Balrog? I guess the Fell Beast is good enough, but you know, I'm feeling greedy.

It is, but remember when POTJ first debuted, and the price was supposed to drop a buck, and that didn't happen for a year? It's gouging, but no one can tell them what to sell their wares at. Hopefully Wal-Mart comes to our rescue and stocks the freshest cases.
I need a Twilight Frodo.

Well, well, well. Target's decided that they're going to charge $6.99 for their Trilogy figures now. Must have lost their ass in the last two weeks, or realized how well they sold. Wal-Mart is still charging $4.96, though my local one hasn't had anything beyond that first case.
Way to go, Target.
