Merry Moss
Man Day!

NoisyDvL524

It's finally time to order those authentic Moss Man ear muffs, now only available with the "small quantity" of Moss Man that come with flocked ears! I have no idea what will happen today. Mattel says that "server capacity has been taken to the max", but they're also warning of impending doom. So much so, they're encouraging fans to pay multiple shipping charges by buying the items individually (don't do that, by the way). As a subscriber, I get my first day off since September and I bequeath my unsused bandwidth on whichever lucky reader happens to get it. Here's a link to the central ordering page for March. I hope that all of you get whichever ears you think best fit your collection and that today isn't a total... clusterflock.*

Figures: Dino Riders!

Vault22

I’ve got the lead on this column again this week, so I decided to go big. One mere figure isn’t enough to satiate my toy needs today. No, instead I want the return of an entire line.

When I was a kid, I loved dinosaurs. I think that’s pretty normal. Dinosaurs were giant, ferocious, mysterious beasts. With thunderous roars, they stalked and stomped their ancient land, battling each other with armored and spiked hides. And I imagined myself right there along ide them. Maybe riding them, fighting Rulons, with a giant missile launcher or two. Well, that was when I was a kid, and things were much simpler. Now, of course, as an adult it might sound silly to think of humans riding dinosaurs decked out in tech and fighting against aliens and mutants, but I don't care. Nothing I've learned can take away from the awesomeness that was Dino Riders.

You know the drill. You get up and you think you could get lucky today. You get ready and put on some nice clothes so you can at least feel presentable if you happen to get checked out. You hop in the car and travel to whichever place you've deemed best to satisfy your desires. You arrive with giddy anticipation. It's now or never, you tell yourself as you round that last corner. What waits? Will it be great joy or intense dissatisfaction?

Anything can happen on a Toy Run...
