It’s Christmas week and I’ll be very happy to see the backside of the holidays. I’m not a scrooge, but this really is a crazy busy time for me and by the time Christmas finally gets here, I’ve pretty much had all I can take. I am looking forward to spending the day with friends and family and seeing the new Doctor Who special, but this week and the week after will still be insane, aggrevating and exhausting, and I’ll be spending as much of my downtime as drunk as I possibly can and probably re-reading my old Deadpool comics, which is something I tend to do every year around this time… don’t ask!
I do hope to keep things rolling along here with business as usual. I do have some new Transformers to look at, and some cool stuff coming in by way of Post, assuming the deludge of holiday mail doesn’t slow things down too much. I’ve got a case of DC Universe Classics figures coming in soon, so get ready for another DC Universe Week and I was actually on board for this month’s MOTU Classics figure over at Matty, so hopefully I’ll have a look at Buzz Off very shortly. I’m also anxiously awaiting word that my pre-order of The Real Ghostbusters Mego-style figures has shipped, as these have been showing at some Ebayers this past weekend.
I wanted to do something cool for Christmas Day and I decided that the coolest memory I have of Christmas was opening up some huge and awesome playset, putting it together, stickering it and having fun. The toy companies seldom make anything like this anymore, but I’ll see what I can do to have something like that to post on the 25th and 26th.
On that note, some of this week may be populated with some quick-and-dirty posts, depending on exactly how much time I have each day. Pretty much everything I look at this week leading up to Christmas Day will be based on a sort of Stocking Stuffer theme. Tomorrow, I’ll be back with a little look at Transformers Legends Sandstorm. And as the week rolls on, I’d like to tackle my last remaining Transformers Animated Deluxe figure, at least one Star Wars Vintage Style figure, and some random stuff thrown in too.
