Another Dan of the internet has made a super cool in depth size comparsion chart of all the greatest science fiction spaceships known to man. A variety of ship sizes and their conterparts can be found here
I was surprised to see how large Bayblon 5 stuff is to the Star Trek stuff. however, Holy crap, V'ger is huge! It would be neat to see it fight the Whale Probe.
what a fun idea!

A Playmobil Christmas; Finally a Nativity set Dan can get along with!
Playmobil's Christmas set has it all! An upgraded Nativity with multiple figures, accessories, and enviroment!

Jesus has 4 points of articulation!!!

Just look at the fine detail as well. Those wise men didn't forget a thing!

The only thing this Angel is missing is its Vorlon encounter suit (if you believe in Babylon 5 lore).

Take one more look, and bring yours home today!!!

I hope I don't get in trouble with the Great Maker over this post.
Ah, the Centari, another great reference!

Hey, What-4-2 you?!

Two cars, one dark the other light, both with red flames. Perhaps the galaxy's fate is up to the winner of the stongest of the two. And perhaps a spinning space station should be built, where a league of worlds could gather and fight against the two cars that fight and destroy everything around them. Hmmm, that would be cool.
In all seriousness, both cars were Hotwheels Mystery cars. I guess one was in the package too long? One either sucked up the blackness of the packaging, or the other one bleached itself due to lack of nutrition. They both still move FAST, with four fake engines.
Anybody notice the Dan's Toy Museum's ticker went over 10,000! Subtract the 9,000 times daily I visit, and that means I had 1,000 Visits!

Another Favorite Show...

My latest favorite show is Ben Ten. Mostly because it is very similar to my life. I too have an Alien watch that transforms me into ten various Aliens. In some circles I am known as Dan Flan, which Flan roughly translates into ten in English.
The show is cleverly writen so that multitude of stories can form. Kid with cool watch, spiffy Alien designs, road trip with Grandpa (who may also have some strange alien linking past) and cousin, settings of common vacation spots, the show can go on and on. I am only on season one, episode three, and I'm hooked to the point of the next addiction...

Four Arms! This is my first Ban Dai action figure. (Well not really my first, I have an original Red Ranger in package some where in my closet) Ban Dai toys usually don't hook me. The plastic is weird and "hard" looking. The toys also have an over dose of screw holes and fake joints. I'm thinking for Ben Ten it works in favor of the steamlined look of the show. The colors and shininess also go good with capturing the aliens. The price isn't bad for the 4" guys- about 4.99 each... thats 10 times 4.99 or 50 dollars for the 10 Aliens. Hmmm, maybe those would be cool x-mas gifts, Hint hint hint. They would look good hanging around the nativity scene.

Darth Maul meets Snake Eyes! Dan's GI Joe casting ideas!

I like that confirmed possible rumor of truth! As long as Snakes has the line; "At last we will have revenge!"
I hope this continues a trend of better casting. Or at least, take all the old voice actors from the old cartoon and make THEM do the movie.
If I were in charge of signing the actors, and I could get who ever I wanted;
Duke- Matt Damon - the resemblence is uncanny and Bourn fits the training.
Flint- Ben Affleck- a friend of Duke- (with the original voice of Flint Dubbed over)
Ship Wreck- a young Jack Nickelson (I know- get out the Cobra time machine)
Lady Jaye- Steve Cojo
Storm Shadow- jet Li
Zartan- Jeff Foxworthy
The Crimson Gaurd Twins- Mary Kate and Ashley Olson
Serpentor- DNA from a bunch of dead historic leaders fused into an actor
The Baroness- Fran somethin or other from Austin powers
Destro- leonardo DeCraprio- (yeah-put that mask back on!)
B.A.T.- Brent Spiner
Cobra Commander- a tie between House and Rachel Ray (her voice is annoying)
And thats my GI Joe movie cast!

Should I jump on the Golden Compass bandwagon?
Daniel Craig the action figure makes it appear like it could be an interesting story.

Is it weird that I have never heard of the novels? Of course, I am not a well read person, spending most of my intellectual time pondering who would win in a fight; Kirk or Picard? The previews of the warring Polar Bears looks Dantastic. I will have to see this movie--of course I just saw the trailer for Alvin and the Chipmunks, and that is on the top of the list by far.

Who is this lost soldier punk?

Authorities dug this guy out of a stump from an old out of control tree system in a co-workers backyard. He was badly wounded, and unnamed. Slight markings place him in the mid eighties time, with 'Remco' as his only identifier. Zartan was notified, but he scoffed, and said he never encountered him before and that he only associates with the Hasbro federation. Historians believe he might have Miami Vice connections with the stylish jacket he wore. If anyone has information regaurding this poor figure, please come forward so his family can be informed of his demise.
