The Death Star on my home

That thing is operational! Yikes, I better get the X-wings on that bomb or things might get 'Ouch time!'

Optimus Prime and Sam's neat size changing glasses...

I saw that Transformers movie again tonight. I liked it better the second time. Perhaps I was too hopped up on goof balls the first time I saw it, so things were much clearer this time. Some of those crazy scenes were a little easier to make out. The ending Optimus Prime vs Megatron fight was still way too short and staged way in the back ground too much. That should have been the center piece of the final battle scene. Oh well, maybe that will be expanded on in sequals.

I did this time also take note of Sam's neat size changing glasses. Prime picks up two humans in his large hands making the humans look tiny. Yet later when Prime picks up glasses, at one point they are almost half his hand size! Then at another point the glasses are in between his finger tips-still a little larger than they should be. Then again, maybe this was done on purpose, as a story telling technique to highlight the all mighty glasses importance.

I also noted the Furby on the trailer in the city in the end. Nice touch Hasbro.

Shockwave and Grimlock pest poor Timber

I really don't think Timber is going to put up with this much longer.

AH! 25th Purple Snake Eyes!

I guess there is a black varient Timber, why not a purple Snake Eyes?

The Atom results...

Thats right! The Atom on the right was the bigger Atom!

The sorry state of my GI Joe army.

With the new 25th's coming out, I thought I should inspect the troops to see how things are going...


As you can see, not very good. Serpentor's Air Chariot has not been matainanced in a long time.


Many soldiers suffer from seveare rubberband fatigue.


Airtight's joints are not at all tight.


Then there is Duke with his missing binoculars. At least Dusty has the dust on the shelf going for him.

More about this new 25th Snake Eyes...

The more I play ..er pose figure for professional reasons, the more I realize the 25th Anniversary figures can't stand in some of the same ways the original format figures can. Right now, Valor vs Venom figure is outdoing 25th without a display stand. I guess you could say the 25th are pretty but don't play as well as the old school. Oops, I missed a good joke opportunity with jointed Sigma Six Timber out posing non jointed 25th anniversary Timber. Maybe next time.
