Got the new wave of Joes and Universal Minsters in the mail from Super7 today. Finally. If I were a MOC collector (as I assume most ReAction/+ collectors are) I would be pretty unhappy. Very bad shipping job lol

Ramar from 2025

Photo of a packaged GI Joe action figure. This is Rqmqr from Super7’s ReAction+ line. He is a big half-naked barbarian looking fella.

Wolfang is an excellent toy.

I hope you find a good solution and feel better very soon, my friend.

Togemon is the Champion

It’s Togemon, a digital monster from Digimon. They are a cactus creature wearing boxing gloves with a little tuft of hair on the top of their head. They’re the best. Just trust me on that one.

Happy birthday to the only TV show to predict that in the future some people would communicate using only reaction memes

happy 30th birthday to one of the best TNG episodes ever, Darmok 💕

Very, very glad Dad and I are getting our COVID shots tomorrow before everything goes even stupider.

Are there places that print custom bandaids? I think I'd like to get "FUCK RFK" bandaids printed for people who got their vaccinations.

Got this baddie in the mail today

Toy photo. It’s a “Bioroid Invid Fighter” from Robotech. This one is the 11994 Exosquad release. It is a big red robot holding a weird gun.

It was one of my first TTRPGs so I will always love it. I'm excited to read this.

I also absolutely adore the Harebrained Schemes computer games.
