Which term is new? If you haven't read the glossary before, you'll never know.<\/li>\n<li>While that's nice, it's not really a review, is it? Our first toy is a highly detailed, highly articulated, beautifully painted piece from a company other than ToyBiz. Yes, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/7kxeth.php\">such a thing exists<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>If you got the email update last week, then you already read this review; it was the Email Update Exclusive. If you didn't get the email last week, welcome to the party. Tell your friends. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/xm_unight.php\">Read this review twice<\/a> to make up for it.<\/li>\n<li>How much do you hate scalpers? Did you ever imagine there could be a lower lifeform out there? Check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/cgi-bin\/forums\/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=10;t=28\">what this raging nitwit is trying to pull<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>On the opposite end of the spectrum from idiotic scalpers are the people who luck into completely awesome hauls. Read a story of <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.myspace.com\/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=67878970&blogID=198150456\">luck, subterfuge and misdirection<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/tfc_ssvp.php\">Transformers Tuesday<\/a> this week was a two-fer. Or maybe a two-and-a-half-fer, if Minicons count. Why the bonus? Because TFT will (likely) be taking a hiatus in December, while we do something even crazier. So make this one last.<\/li>\n<li>Any of you Transformers fans out there good at costumizing\/kitbashing? <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/2006\/11\/i-need-help-fixing-a-transformer\/\">yo needs your help<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>And speaking of customizing, someone has a question about doing that on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/cgi-bin\/forums\/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=9;t=109\">rotocast toys<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Our final new review for the week is the type of thing Beavis and Butt-Head would laugh at. It's the kind of thing you don't want to have to explain to your grandmother. Or anyone else's grandmother, for that matter. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/smshock.php\">Prepare to snicker quietly to yourself<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Don't forget our upcoming Toy of the Year awards. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/cgi-bin\/forums\/ikonboard.cgi?act=SF;f=12\">Get your nominees in<\/a> and remember, you can name as many different things as you want, even if you don't think they'll win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week's OAFEnet Email Update comes to you in glorious 3-D!
