Here’s our fifth annual Black Friday cast. As your gorging on turkey and/or deals, remember as collectors we have hundreds, sometimes thousands of things to be thankful for. But, please do not forget to be thankful for the things that really matter, friends and family.

Shortest show ever…Slick
We have Boxing Day here but it’s not as good as the ‘black friday’ sales you guy’s have ,great show guy’s 🙂
Thanks for the back-to-back episodes! I listened while I was organizing my toys in my garage and had to laugh whenever Slick would say “supposably” and Mrs. McFavorite would correct him. Sorry I started that whole thing, but it’s for your own good…..along with providing me many entertaining moments. You’re getting better, keep it up.
One serious question and two silly ones:
1. I found a Darth Malgus a while ago at TRU, but noticed not only it, but all the vintage figures had bent cardbacks. I bought it anyway knowing it was HTF and would probably never see it again on the pegs….which I haven’t. Have you ever run into this? What’s the deal? Is someone doing this on purpose, like a dealer trying to up the value of his figures by destroying all others? Frustrating.
2 & 3. Ok, now for the silly. When you were a kid, did you find it confusing that Skeletor (a dude with a skull for a face) didn’t live in the castle that a huge skull on the front of it? It seems like a perfect fit, like he had it custom built for him with his likeness on it. Let the guy in! It’s obviously his castle!
Also, wouldn’t a guy named Snake Eyes seem like a natural candidate for an organization named Cobra? “Hey, we got vipers, asps, rattlers & HISS tanks……..so, I think we have a spot for a guy name SNAKE eyes.” Am I right or am I right?
Thanks again for a great podcast….I look forward to the next one!
Supposedly yours,
John
McFavoritos, what it do?
Last time I wrote your guys on here, they called me Saber…”now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. A long time.” I killed Saber, chopped his head clean off…we go by Bruticus now…long live Bruticus. In the last 3 years, I have certainly taken the Wonkavator route in life…or Wonka Vader if you include all of the Chocolate & Sweets I have eaten living on the Dark Side of D’Vorce. …and Speaking of Sweets…I ate every last bite of your Hallelujah Holiday yummies. I want to thank you so very much for always including a little piece of me in ya’llz life. You guys are very special to me.
You guys, especially Slick, knew me before all of this madness took place…so that we’re clear…Besides school and work, I have spent most of my time thinking…and it is during all of this time of thinking, that my mind wanders aimlessly from dimensional portal to dimensional wormhole… If I could sum it up in TV talk, my reality show would be Dr. Who/What/When/Where/Why/Why/Why… You must forgive me for being as distant as I have been…it was never my intention. Slowly regaining conciousness…
Slick – You made my last Botcon extraordinarly special…never thanked you for it… I wasn’t going to go…then you were gonna go as your last hurrah, so thought I would do the same…you saved me $ getting me in and all that good stuff… Botcon is big for both of us, and I think you understood how special it was going to be if I could just squeeze my *ss through the booth doors…just…one…more…time… Love you Slicky
Mrs – Thank you for always sending me kind words through Facebook, phone, etc. You are always so sweet to me, and it’s that kind of compassion that people need and allthetimes crave…if only the world had more of it… Glad you have somebody in your life that loves you for who you are, and he truly does. A few days before the end of the Mayan calendar, I woke up one morning, looked at Facebook, and it made me sick. Since then, the sickness has continued…I guess I used it as a life support system for getting through all I’ve had to go through the last couple of years. So if I don’t post things on your wall, or mines…that’s why…
McFavorites – I’m glad God blessed you with such a wonderful baby. May that McWonderful little McBlessing Mclighten every McMonth, McDay, McMinute & McSecond of every McYear.
Now that school is out of the way, and work, work, work is on the agenda, I realize now, more than ever, that I need to get back to doing the things that made me happy in the past…and that includes toys. T.O.Y.S. That Overpriced Youth Sickness is back…we’ll see what happens…
