January 27th - Savage Gray Hulk

Savage Gray Hulk

Hasbro Marvel Legends

It still doesn't make sense. Those pants are either denim or polyester or something. How do they stay on him? This is almost unfathomable, even with suspension of disbelief. Oh well, I guess it wouldn't be pretty or convenient to have Bruce Banner walk around in all spandex all the time or see bounding, naked Hulk coming off the page.

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 25 - Zant from Legend of Zelda

Zant from Legend of Zelda

Japanese capsule toy

I remember getting excited when the newest Zelda game, Twilight Princess, came out. It was a new story with new mechanics, new worlds, and next-gen graphics...all that we come to expect from the Zelda series. And though was a good game,it was far from great. It was more like the last few games, only on steroids. Poor Zant here was billed as the chief villain, and yet, surprise, he was just Ganon's lacky?! Sigh...more of the same...with added horseback fighting. Maybe next time...
