Not to knock the Princess, as I&#8217;m happy to get her, but this is the &#8220;Sellout Race&#8221; I&#8217;ve been most curious about since SDCC and, right now, my money is on Battle Armor He-Man. He&#8217;s the He-Man of choice for many of the younger fans and all those great vintage oils have convinced us that he belongs atop Battle Cat. The next few days (hours? eek!) will tell the tale. But those two heavyweights aren&#8217;t the only thing on-sale today.

I hope to see you all back here with stories of success and ease after the figures go live here in a few hours. Good luck out there!<\/p>\n<p><center><\/p>\n<h4><a name=\"connected\">Stay Connected with IAT<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><\/center><\/p>\n<p><P>While we&#8217;ve got your attention, we wanted to point out a couple new features we&#8217;ve added here at IAT. Over the last few days, you may have noticed a new &#8220;Connect with IAT&#8221; box up there on the right side of the page with a steadily growing number of little icons. We figured it was finally time to make better use of the 21st century internet and expand beyond our meager high school HTML comfort zone. In addition to being able to subscribe to our RSS feed a few different ways, you can also follow us on <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/itsalltruenet\">Twitter<\/a> &#038; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/ItsAllTrueNet\/281698371899\">Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Our <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/itsalltruenet\">Twitter<\/a> updates include important tidbits of information not big enough for columns, some in-store photos of the interesting things we find, and our occasional attempt at witty commentary. For our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/ItsAllTrueNet\/281698371899\">Facebook<\/a> page, we&#8217;ll be uploading &#8220;behind the scenes&#8221; photo albums with stories of how we arrived at some of our favorite Amusing Articulations. And we&#8217;ll be posting more exclusive Facebook content as we get our ducks in a row.<\/p>\n<p>The first button though, is our newest on-site feature, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.itsalltrue.net\/forum\/viewforum.php?f=1\">Green Room<\/a>. We had planned to launch a message board with the opening of the blog, but we left the forum out of sight because we weren&#8217;t sure where we wanted to go with it. Did we want to heavily promote it as part of the blog? Did we want to funnel comments into the forums instead of at the end of the articles? Did the internet really need another toy forum when we already have so many fantastic ones? We couldn&#8217;t decide. So we kept it running in the background. Mostly for IAT personnel, a few regular commenters, and the occasional person who happened to stumble across it. We used the last few months as a sort of test drive. Now that we&#8217;ve ironed out the kinks and gotten a handle on how it works* we&#8217;ve decided we&#8217;re ready to open the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.itsalltrue.net\/forum\/viewforum.php?f=1\">Green Room<\/a> to all our readers. Our plan is to keep it simple, just one small forum for our readers to kick back and enjoy.<\/p>\n<p><em>* &#8211; It&#8217;s a little to known fact that a PHPBB board has four million and thirty-seven settings.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>We do love reading your comments and all the IAT staff will still be responding at the end of the articles to your shared thoughts and concerns. But we&#8217;d also like to invite you a little deeper into the website so that we can get to know you and your fellow IATers. We think it&#8217;s a good step forward for the site and we hope it will be a fun ride for all of us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To MOTUC Collectors across the globe, I wish you a Happy Adora Day!
