Just when I thought I was out…THEY PULLED ME BACK IN!
Yesterday at the annual San Diego Comic Con, Mattel revealed the new line up for their highly popular, internet-exclusive “Masters of the Universe” toys (you can see pics of the new figures here). I’ve talked about this line before on the podcast several times and how much I both love it and hate it: I love it because it’s so awesome and the figures are amazing, I hate it because of its very high price and difficulty to obtain on sale day. Well, long story short, I had resolved to quit this line after the month of August when (Orko and Trapjaw are released).
Well, forget that.
Naked “Bike-Man” arrested in Cedar Rapids!
It appears a naked man, riding a bicycle, was arrested last night in Cedar Rapids (you can read the official story HERE).

Now, given this kid’s age, it obviously wasn’t the same guy, but I found it funny nonetheless.
Toy Story 3 Movie Review
Woody, Buzz Lightyear and several others of Andy’s fondly remembered playthings are back for this go around…but they’re not all back. Time, age and wear has meant that some of the beloved toys didn’t make it this far. Andy is now 17 and headed off to college in just a few days. When we catch up with the gang, they’re executing one last, desperate attempt to get Andy to play with them one more time. Despite their best efforts, it fails, and they then face an uncertain future and difficult questions: do they submit to storage in the attic, or do they take their chances as donated toys at a local daycare?
Prepare to CARE, Muthaf*#%@s!
This might be one of the greatest ideas I’ve ever seen. Certainly the best remake of an 80′s cartoon. If they really made it, I’d go see it. Twice.
