Baracus don't take no jibber jabber in the van

Mr T - Wacky Wobbler Bobble-Head Van Bank - Funko

Mr T had a cult following back in the eighties with his tough guy image; his famous catch phrase "I pity the fool", his remarkable fashion sense, with his large amount of gold chains around his neck and his cool mohawk hairstyle.


In the television series The A-Team, Mr T drove the black GMC van, which he used to transport his miltary team-mates around from mission to mission.


Mr T comes in all his glory with bobble-action and money storage skills, the bobble head bank measures approximately 8 inches in height and remember fool, you can always bank on Mr. T.



 
 

Aussie dollar kicks a swift lodge into the US coin

Thursday, April 19, 2007 - Soon Van
Hardcovers and trade paperbacks

Hardcovers and trade paperbacks
Standing order customers listen up! (And those who aren't, pay attention for the heck of it, it'll be good fish oil to drink.)

Whilst the Australian dollar is kicking the hide of the US, that 5% discount you're getting right now?

It's going to jump to 10%.

That means you're going to get more back on all your comics, statues, busts, action figures, comic supplies and other merchandise from the Comic Shop.

Want an easy breakdown for the comics?

Normally a comic that comes in at $6.25 Australian ($2.99 US) will be $5.60 for standing order customers. Similarly, a normal off the shelf price of $6.95 ($3.50 US) is $6.25 and $7.45 ($3.99 US) drops down to $6.70.

Not a standing order customer? Interested in being one? Then read up more on the free service and drop in today.

So long as today isn't Monday. We're closed Mondays.

And remember that also extends to trade paperbacks and hardcovers as well.

 
 

Look up and see the end of the year 2006

Days away from the end of the year and it'll all be over. A clean slate to start from on the tick over into 2007. New Year's resolutions to ready and possibly hold on to for a few weeks. Food to clear out and junk to dish out. Start with the vacuuming and bringing in the carpet fibres.

Down to the wire and there's nothing like what you saw from the previous months of this year to forewarn and help you for the adventures, mishaps and antics bound to happen next year.

Horror of horrors for those who choose to close their eyes, kiss the sky and walk in with a head down on the ground. Makes for a wall of thudding if not careful.

Buck up, things can only get a little bit different, if not better.

Scarface all set with nice set of choppers

Scarface all set with nice set of choppers
Tony Montana from Scarface imparts some sage advice: "What'd I try to tell you? In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women."

Simple power dynamics. Move up from one echelon to another and the results will open up more doors. For the socially conscious, all this stops dead behind teeth and a smile enough to make a crocodile eat a small child in halves.

Nice and pearly white, like a set of PKs or Juicy Fruits, a set of good healthy teeth goes a long way. More so than just as a good turn on the second hand market for pure enamel made dentures.

Nothing can hide the shine that comes from a broad smile flashing more than those men hanging in the park in trench coats.

Wrinkles and the mighty roar of the Russian guns

Eddie the Trooper - Iron Maiden head knocker - NECA
Eddie the Trooper - Iron Maiden head knocker - NECA
Under the monster riff of The Trooper by the almighty Iron Maiden, a tale of the Crimean War. A battle raged between the Russians and the Ottoman Empire.

Bleak and from the vision of a slain soldier, the song is partially based on The Charge of the Light Brigade. A poem by the long dead Alfred Lord Tennyson.

Never mind of course the fact that the Trooper himself looks like the sight of death. Wrinkles and the skin folding over itself like the battle weary effect it can hold.

Much like the inability of performance artist David Blaine to hold his breath for nine brain damaging minutes. After a week long stunt being Drowned Alive in a water bubble, Blaine emerged all wrinkly and unable to top off the spectacle.

And wrinkles? Far more than just falling asleep in the bath.

 
 

Buffy holds off race with Slimer behind

Slimer head knocker
Slimer head knocker
Arriving on the shores of Australia, having left the land of the rising sun, Japan, a finely crafted Batman has caused marks of concern. While many parents groups still have nightmares about Joel Schumacher's directorial turns with Batman Forever and Batman and Robin (more worryingly with the focus on nipples and cod pieces for the costumes) the crotch on this statue will surely send them running for the red hot pokers to rid themselves of the ability to see ever again. Though it may appear rather innocuous to the casual observer, the rise of the groin area groans extremely close to obscene begging the question, "What keeps the Dark Knight up at nights?."
