A D23 coupon got me 15% off the Peter Pan minimates







The Jolly Roger is really awesome. It has two masts that you set up, 2 extendable planks, a captain's quarter compartment and you can lift up a panel to reveal the lower deck.

I really hope there aren't more Disney minimates sets in the works or else I'll feel compelled to get them all.

Got some old Jurassic Park toys off ebay. I may have overpaid but I've been aching to get some dinos for a really long time.

The ship is a must get!

I have that same Raptor that Cohete got. My local TRU didn't seem to get in the Jurassic Park exclusive Pachyrhinosaurus and Allosaurus yet.

So these Hot Wheels Retro Entertainment cars are interesting. Unlike the $1 version these have a lot more paint, rubber tires and other details that make them much cooler. I just came across wave 2 the other day and had to share.

First American Graffiti

1958 Edsel



And the 1932 Ford



Then we have the 1977 Pontiac Firebird from Smokey and the Bandit.



Then one that will be closer to the hearts of many, the Electric Mayhem Bus from the Muppets.



And the Evil KARR from Knight Rider.



Then the last car from the wave, the ATeam van. The old version is in the front. You can see the top now has the correct dark gray and other details.




Finally one of the cars from wave 1, the new and improved Ecto-1. Once again you can see it with the older $1 version. The new one has rubber white walled tires, paint details on the top of the car as well as a perlescent white paint for the body.

Or just buy them on DVD.

I've been rewatching the old Joe cartoons. I used to think my terrible sense of humor was from Fozzie Bear. Now I realize I got it from the G.I.Joe cartoons.

^and knowing that is half the battle.

Look out for those abandoned refrigerators!

[Coheteboy]

Finally! Fighter Pod Wicket!

I'm making a note here: huge success. It is hard to overstate my satisfaction.
