January 26th - M&M's wind-up

M and M's wind-up

candy promo pack-in

That crazy M&M got his car stuck in a wheel, and is using the his car to propel the wheel forward! That is crazy! If he got his car out, he'd go much faster. And what's crazier is that if he keeps waggling his tongue out against his face, he's eventually gonna melt himself. Melts in your mouth my friend: will you ever learn?!

January 4th - the Bluesmobile (Blues Brothers 2000)

The Bluesmobile - from 'Blues Brothers 2000'

a Johnny Lightning matchbox car

It's the Bluesmobile! Aww wait..its the crappy one from the almost-unwatchable 'Blues Brothers' sequel, 'Blues Brothers 2000'. This Bluesmobile is a 1990 Ford LTD Crown Victoria, which is totally not as cool as the original 1974 Dodge Monaco sedan. BOO! Although I will save you a rant on the rest of the 'Blues Brothers 2000' ugliness, i will still say that the soundtrack is pretty good.
And nothing says new-millenium-crap better than the fad of slapping '2000' on a product. THIS MOVIE CAME OUT IN 1998 FOR CRYIN' OUT LOUD!!! Okay, okay...I said I wouldn't rant....it's all about the toy...which is okay...I mean, its a car... it has four wheels, and it rolls pretty good...nuff said.
