Well, with this week's <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/gij25fcd.php\">Joe Friday<\/a>, you get two characters for the price of one.\n<li>And while we didn't post this on Friday, we do have a new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/blog\/?p=426\">GI Joe Movie Watch<\/a> over on the blog.\n<li>Have you ever heard of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/artemis\/bionbart.php\">the mantis shrimp<\/a>? It's a creepy little shellfish that can look quite monstrous, viewed up close. Even moreso if it's walking on two legs and shooting a gun at you.\n<li>Sunday's review is a two-parter, but rather than make you wait, we <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/sw4dstc.php\">smashed both halves together<\/a> - which, as it turns out, was a very appropriate thing to do.\n<li>This next review was last week's EUE, so it may seem familiar. Still, there's <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/artemis\/bionvultraz.php\">just something fun about a midget<\/a> racing around on a gigantic flying motorcycle.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/mlhwm_vis.php\">Marvel Legends Monday<\/a> this week brought us a figure we've seen before. That's not very exciting, is it? Well, Hasbro did promise to cover some of the hard-to-find ToyBiz releases, and this definitely falls into that category.\n<li>Technically, our new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/tfcl_cyc.php\">Transformers Tuesday<\/a> covered two characters, not one. But it isn't really a double review. How is this mystery possible? Well, get clicking, find out!\n<li>McFarlane Toys, at one point, famous for their toys' <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/artemis\/mcbeogm.php\">stunning likenesses<\/a>. So how do their honor that former glory? Buy getting a movie license and doing everything they could to avoid having to sculpt any likenesses.\n<li>Similarly, our final review of the week is a movie character who's been <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oafe.net\/yo\/dcdwatch1r.php\">sculpted with no face<\/a>. Of course, in that case, it's appropriate.<\/ul>\n<p>We've got something special cooking for next week. Almost all the pieces are in place, so hopefully things will work out. Keep your fingers crossed, and keep reading OAFE - your #1 source for toy reviews.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The OAFEnet Email Update has a thin candy shell.
