Crimson Twins

I was expecting more from the Tomohawk. It looks a little Tonka-ish. Especially when compared to the original. It looks much smaller too. I really wanted to like it, but was hit hard with disappointment. Maybe it's because I never had an original and I thought this would be my chance. Who knows, I might change my mind when I see more of it in better detail.

So far I'm only liking Psyche Out, Repeater, the Frag Viper, and Crimson Asp. If anyone's looking to get rid of them, let me know. I'm sure we can work something out.

I put Decepticon logos on my new car. And not just stickers. I went with the full chrome badges. And a matching key chain and wallet. And now I'm shopping for Decepticon head rest covers.

Stumbled across a MU Archangel at my WM today. Don't know why it was there, but when it rang up $4.50, I had to grab it. The also had Havok from that wave, and the rest of their MU was clearanced at $5. Only She Hulk was left.

I would love to get my hands on Dice and Big Boa. Other than that, nothing really grabbed me. I'm going to try and trade my SDCC exclusives for those two. We will see how that goes.

So what does the Club say about people that didn't get the figures, but know anyway? I don't want to Jinx it, but I'm going to roll the Dice anyway.

That's on you. No one can prevent you from posting anything. People still have to choose to check out your reviews. The whole surprise thing is kinda dumb to me, so I'm probably the wrong person to ask. It's not like they're going to unsubscribe you if you mention anything. And like I mentioned before, it hasn't stopped anyone from putting them all over eBay to sell for profit. Hey guess what guys, you're going to get all the figures you subscribed to this service for. Eventually, every last one of them will make it to your mailbox. How much of a surprise do people really expect. It's going to be two of a handful of figures. Get over it.

And honestly, I don't get the whole secrecy thing. It's not like they aren't going to get all of the figures eventually anyway. Whatever.

A quick eBay search, and you can clearly see which two it was. I, too, only want one of those. Maybe someone would be willing to trade for one of my SDCC PDD figures. There's really only one other figure I want from that subscription. I'll have to try to work another deal when it comes out.

Does it stink that some people have to give up their evenings with family? Yeah. But we have to look in the mirror when trying to place the blame. I'm willing to bet that a good portion of those 228,000 that signed that petition will be willing to leave their families at home and be there at 9 o'clock ready to trample the weak under their feet to get that great deal on a TV.

Well, I'm here at Benning, and I just found out I'll be going to a basic training brigade, so I'm kinda stoked. I'll finally have some time to get some school in.

That is funny because I wanted to buy the hardened edition at my Best Buy and they sold out (as well as the carepackage) No big deal or anything, but it would have been cool. Is the hardened one the one that comes in the black tool box looking thing? Saw some today at the PX.

It seems like everywhere I go, the special editions of games hardly ever sell. I remember buying Halo 3 with the Spartan helmet for 49.99. And I see those other special editions collecting dust until they get reduced. I'm pretty sure I could walk in to most any store around here and get that Hardened Edition.

Yeah, it's a bit different here. A lot colder that's for sure. But I'm getting used to it. That's part of the reason I was hoping to find someone near by to help me get acquainted with the area.

Best Buy really is the best place to buy movies this year.

The Army saw fit to move me from Hawaii to this little piece of southern comfort, and I was just wondering if there were any of you guys close by.

Theblackfriday.com has almost every black Friday ad out right now. I'm not impressed. Might pick up some movies and tv series, but that's about it.

So, now that I am back on the mainland and visiting family in Tennessee, I've finally seen a Dollar General store. The one I went into had all but Duke and the Trooper. I just bought SE and SS. Thought about Shipwreck, but decided to wait until I get to Georgia to go looking. The hunt is one thing I missed in Hawaii. I'm enjoying it again now.

I've heard that Night Adder's hands can work as well. He's from the ROC line and was pretty easy to come by.

Yup, did this immediately out of the package. But then I put Crossbones head on the body and was one happy camper.

Thanks guys. I'm looking forward to adding some more mods on the inside. I'm wanting to add some blue LEDs under the dash and seats. I've also been eyeing an LED sound activated equalizer that's about the size of the rear window. I'm just not great at wiring stuff on my own, so I'm a bit scared to go that extra step.

You'd be surprised. It's a 2012, but I got it used. Original owner only had it for 3 months. His loss was my gain. Got it for about 10K off the original price. Was super happy. The Charger has always been my dream car.

Just got him about a month ago, and the badges came about a week ago. Finally got around to taking some pics. I'm going to do some work on the interior soon, to continue the Decepticon theme. Just thought I would share with you TF guys.

This is one time where it pay to be in Afghanistan. Got the whole season for $1 a disk. All in one nice looking package. If the other sets come out at a combined reasonable price, I might spring for the real thing.

Awesome and incredibly wealthy. I had a lot of Joe toys as a kid, and multiples of many things, but this is just crazy! I wouldn't know what to do with half of that stuff.
