Weekend Round Up: Lots of Contest Talk

by

It’s Friday already? How did that happen?

Item: Sweet Chickens in heat, hrdwrkngxsoldier is a friggen machine. The WUMB regular has organized his workplace and several other local businesses to donate to Toys For Tots. So far they have 100 Joes to donate. I guess I inspired him or something. Thankfully, I’ve used my powers for good… this time.

Item: Also in contest news, it was featured as a news item on both Raving Toy Maniac and Toy News International. It’s really, really odd to see a link to ToyBender in any form on those sites. Odd, yet really cool.

Item: This is just plain weird. There’s a toy forum out there that deleted a thread I made letting them know about the Toys For Tots contest. I realize that they might have wanted to stop something that was spam-like, but they never deleted the SDCC Cobra Commander contest thread I made a few months ago. Out of the two, you’d have thought they’d have kept the one that ultimately helped a charity. I guess I learned my lesson!

Item: Finally on the contest front, please visit the sponsors if you haven’t already: Big Bad Toy Store, Brian’s Toys, Sideshow Collectibles, and 80sTees.com. I’d love to do this again next year!

Item: Poe Ghostal wrote an incredibly awesome article about how He-Man fans of the 2002 series are losing their shit over the new figures and how a few people actually like them. It’s the best article ever and I’m not saying that because he quoted me extensively.

Item: Great White Snark had a truly awesome wedding cake pic up the other day. Watch out for ninjas!

Item: I’ve been made aware that there’s a new toy blog in town called Articulated Discussion. I must watch it closely, for if it tries to challenge me I’ll crush it like a bug before they know what for. Muwahahaha! Oh yeah, he’s got a contest where he’s giving away a Batman Beyond DCUC figure.
