Geeze it's hot. The worst thing about summer? When the heat starts getting to your toys and the Annual Soft Plastic Dive-Off begins. Just remember: keep some cushiony stuff in front of your shelves. Pillows, folded blankets, whatever. Stay safe.
While out last Marvel Legends review may have been a joke, this one's not. Judging by the fact that we started looking at this series in December and it's now May, you might have an idea of how rare this figure is. http://www.oafe.net/yo/ml5_blade.php

Remember when McFarlane Toys were on top of the industry? Man, the new Shrek figures will make you miss those days. The sheer amount of crap being produced with the Shrek logo on it is an embarassment, and just shows how much restraint Todd showed all those years ago. Who would have expected the new line to be such a step backwards? http://www.oafe.net/yo/shrek2pib.php
