    I've been thinking of getting an iPhone. So now that everyone else in the world seems to have one, I thought now is the best time to ask. Should I get an iPhone? What's so special about it?

    One way or another, we're at least getting white Daleks, if not the ones from Remembrance specifically... but damn, the white "Emperor" would be awesome indeed, and no excuse to skimp out on the inner detail with Darvos hanging around.

    Special Weapons Daleks are a MUST. If they've done suicide Daleks, I'm sure we'll get them as the Classic series continues.

    During the listener question I thought GogDog was going to say that Cybertron never really blew up, because Rosanna saved it.

    :thumb  I still just use posterboard and desk lamps I bought at a thrift store :) 

    Drew, I know of a great place for your artwork :) 

    DON is a great guy. My only regret is not getting to talk to him more :(  He even called me on my b-day. :)  It meant a lot since my b-day was relatively forgotten about by everyone except my wife :(

    It was something similar. :D 

    And that's why I didn't say it, because everyone already knew what I was going to say.

    :lol  Kinda hard to believe that almost 2 MONTHS after he ordered it Vangelus' Scareglow still hasn't arrived. Maybe Rosanna can take a break from saving G1 to work on MattyCollector's shipping?

    When you guys were talking about necromancer robots raising zombies I was surprised nobody mentioned City of fear - have none of you read it?

    Rosanna doesn't support the competition. Not that she's a bitch, it's just a conflict of interest I'm sure she'd like to avoid.

    Besides, saving G1 is hard enough work. She certainly has her work cut out for her.

    Hey, when do you think Bludgeon will be widespread retail?

    I think he's already widespread retail, but that just means a bunch of us aren't in the spread. :lol

    As a user of the DPCI trick I can help you out. Target assigns DPCIs to wave/assortments, so all of the Animated Deluxes have the same DPCI. If you are looking for an item that you think Target may have in stock you can go to Target.com and look to see if the item is in stock, but that won't tell you if they have your item there.

    Where the trick comes in is regular hunting and watching what their back-stock is doing. When you know that a wave is reaching saturation you get on your toes. When the back-stock goes from none in stock to some in stock it is likely that the newest case is in the back. Find a worker with the stock gun, give them the DPCI and tell them that you are looking for a certain item. Give them specifics about the item, and try and not look freakish. In my experience as long as you are cool, adn there is space on the shelves for a case to go then they will get you what you are looking for.

    If you try and work the system during a busy time, you will get the cold shoulder. If the shelves are full, they won't look for you. If you get pushy you will probably be told they can't check back stock.

    I won't say universal yes. Do you often have an iPod/MP3 player going? Are you already a smartphone user? Are you a Macaddict? If you answered yes to one of these questions then you'll probably like it.

    If all you use your phone for is to make phone calls then probably not.
