Another week, another month gone by. And we're getting more snow, so "haw haw!"
We've had a grand old week, with all sorts of new stuff for you to read. If you remember Shocka's Spawn 1 and Overtkill reviews, you probably won't be surprised to hear that he's now given us that loose-limbed baddie, Violator 1: http://www.oafe.net/shocka/vio1.html
Comparing the younger days of Todd Toys to what they're doing now may seem unfair, but we do it anyway. The Image 10th Anniversary figures are the hottest things McToys has on the shelf right now (probably because they were the last things to come out, huh?). Or they would be, if the damn things would STAY on the shelves for more than five minutes once they come out of the case. They're pretty expensive, but are they worth it? Find out when you read about Spawn at http://www.oafe.net/yo/i10s.html and Shadowhawk at http://www.oafe.net/yo/i10sh.html
Those Robots in Disguise turn up, of course, in the form of a character that most folks don't remember: http://www.oafe.net/yo/tfref.html
Do the Simpsons count as old toys? The show's been around longer than some of a our readers have been alive, so it might. And the organization represented in this new World of Springfield review has been around since the dawn of time, as well. Learn all about the secret handshakes at http://www.oafe.net/yo/wossch.html
Over at http://www.oafe.net/articulation/ there's a new article, that's basically just the ramblings of a cantankerous jackass. Some would say it's just a halfassed way to avoid having to actually WRITE something, but we say that it's an attempt to spark debate. Feel free to weigh in with your opinions on our message board, the Loafing Lounge.
Until next week, enjoy the weather. Or else. Look for the winner of our Retro Month contest in next week's email...
