    You got that wrong, no way that article doesn’t start with Florida Man.

    I'm not moving just to make the article read the way to think it should.

    Probably more like, "Florida man severs own head while wildly swinging prop sword at home invaders" and then the article goes into detail about how it's not the head on your shoulders that was cut off only after digging through six different prompts about a waitress' note to a customer that left them in tears and some guy taking home what he thought was but really wasn't a lost puppy.

    Saw a scalper in target today. Couldn’t have been more obvious. Guy was legit stalking every inch of the aisles. Hounded 2 separate employees shoving his phone in their face multiple times. Yikes. Maybe it’s because I don’t go to stores more often but this hobby is embarrassing sometimes.

    There was more to the story I gave the short version. He was def asking for “all” that they had. That’s what caught my attention. If he wasn’t a scalper, I’d be surprised. I’ve been around long enough to usually tell a fan from a scalper but I don’t know these days.

    It is embarrassing, especially when I'm with my kids and what they're looking for isn't available because some adult man got to the aisle before us and cleared the pegs into his cart. There's no good answer to, "Dad, why does he need 4 of those?" At least, not a PG one. :D

    As always they nailed it! I like seeing Jitsu, Stridor and Night Stalker on Fisto's card. Merman's card is a nice homage to the early minicomics, but kind or meh. Evil-Lyn's card seems to suggest that the LOP Merman, Minicomic Try Klops and herself are how they looked in the past, just like the Rise of Evil art. Faker's card is cool too and really give the impression of time passing. The shadow and Ram Man with Man E Faces seem to be "before" and Faker jumping at then is the "after".

    According to He-Man.org users it's an unproduced tree house playset.
