    I'd like to see them make a legitimately solid/good figure, first, then they can worry about repaints. It's long overdue.
    If MMC and (some of) Fans Toys can do it, they can too. Keith's just suuuuuuuuper cheap.

    On the plus side, their low popularity means they are very obtainable! If you're not working a high-end engineering or finance job, it can be hard to get into some of the higher-end ones like FT. MMC on the other hand seems to achieve both good prices and good quality, so I've been a big fan. So stoked that Probus is arriving soon.

    They finally did it!

    A plastic crack addict action figure! :eek: 

    I think that’s a bag of GI Joe limbs he got at the local bazaar, and is that a bottle of floor polish? lol. :p

    That bag of spaghetti is far more horrifying on this figure than it was in the movie. It looks like a bag of earthworms :lol

    I thought it was a bag of cigarette butts picked up out of the parking lot and a bottle of cheap bourbon he was going to steep them in to get his nicotine fix... But now I see that it's Maple Syrup. Are we sure those aren't poutines in that bag!? I haven't seen this movie.

    My Studio Series wave ten deluxe just dropped into my PoL. Oh, must resist hitting 'ship' until later... but I got some good stuff in it right now, like Goliath from Gargoyles.

    I can see both the bourbon and the cig butts :lol  What a great figure.

    In the movie it's a bag of spaghetti with chocolate and maple syrups, marshmallows, pop-tarts, and various candies. It... Admittedly doesn't look much better on film :lol

    One of the best holiday movies, period.
    And I'm not a big fan of Will Ferrell.

    Eh, I never liked Elf. There's plenty of better holiday movies.

    Though, Opus and Bill: A Wish For Wings That Work, is the only holiday film I watch every year, so I guess I'm not really one to say what a "true classic" holiday film is.

    Alright, on the recommendation of the two of you I'm going to watch it. I tend to dislike Will Ferrell, but that doesn't mean he can't have a good movie now and then and I can certainly enjoy something that contains things I don't like. For example, raisin cookies, or curry with whole cardamom pods, shredded coconut on a candy, etc.

    It has Bob Newhart, Ed Asner, Mary Steenburgen, Zooey Deschanel, Peter Dinklage (in an absolutely hilarious scene), and James Caan in it. They all bring their A-games.

    I got the DVD as a white elephant Christmas gift at work like ~15 years ago and I've made my family watch it around the holidays ever since, lol!

    Top three Christmas movie on repeat along with Home Alone and A Christmas Story!

    Yeah, my mom found it on DVD a good few years ago and showed us it. We've watched it every year since.

    It was my introduction to the characters. I enjoy it quite a bit. Robin Williams voices a kiwi with a fruedian complex in regards to his wingspan, as you do.

    I'll have to seek it out.

    That along with Calvin and Hobbes and The Far Side were all obsessive reads for me as a kid.
