I'm sure any MP3 speakers would work for it.

Do they call you Andy to mock you, or is that the nickname you prefer? I've always called you Andrew, but if you prefer Andy...

Sometimes. So in order to "remind" them from time to time, I do the reverse. I call Jeff "Jeffrey", Dan "Daniel", and John "Jonathan", etc. You'd be surprised at how well that works.

But, I've been more forgiving lately, although I do prefer Andrew.

grrrr.. this has not been the week for getting info on my exclusive orders :-x Hasbrotoyshop puked with all the traffic, so I can't get any information online about my rodimus and menasors. I've called them twice and they say they are in the warehouse, and my CC has been charged, so I assume those are okay. I just went to check action figure express to find out the status on the war within grimlock bust. I forgot my password. no big deal.. unless they say they don't recognize the email address :sad: so I just emailed them with my order number. hopefully I'll hear more about it today :MAD:

Patience young one... I just ordered the EE Mandalores and Clones 14 fig Star wars set. It looks awesome! Black colored Scorches, original Mandalorians, black colored ARC troopers...

I also have that WWI Grimlock statue on pre-order, and have heard nothing about it, as well as, a 4 Horseman MOTU King Randor Statue/Figure heard nothing about it either.

I got my HTS shipping confirmation today.

Where's Chad? I hear Kevin from Miragebox's will be at the next convention in Livonia, with Chad I assume, because he mentioned in his e-mail that he would be in MI with a good friend at the Con. Has to be Chad, right?

yeah, Kevin will have table with chad, right next to PQP hopefully. I'll even be in town, so I'll be there too. Chad has been very busy, so he hasn't had much computer time. He's working at stadium all day today - saturday. they apparently have a verlander figure... I don't know if they still have it though.

I'm going to go out looking for him at TRU where he was sited-- today hopefully. I just ordered the variant Verlander off Ebay, cause well, he's young and his fortunes seem really good.

And this is the first USA team variant McFarlane's have done, I believe.

I might have to see if I can convince Andrew to let me hang out at his table all day--pay him a bit for the opportunity--, and sell an MP Megs, maybe my Botcon bagged set, an SDCC Rodimus, Titanium Menasor, and Silver head Destro... (Beware they will be marked up--like heart attack level, because I have to make some money back!!! :-( )

Maybe see if I can scrape up some other things to bring that people may want, TF-wise.

What do I have doubles of? Hmm.... Maybe I'll sell some of my loose stuff...Armada, Energon, Cybertron...that I no longer really want.

Maybe some comics too.

Can you tell that I owe beaucoup bucks on my Credit card?

Finally got my 08 BB yesterday from BBTS. He's now officially my favorite Deluxe.

I watched 300 yesterday, too. Leonidas running into battle the first time was just plain inspiring. I'll watch it again before I judge it as good or just o.k., but I liked it better than Sin City.

You're welcome to join me TT, but I don't have too much space left. I'd pick up another cheap shelf, but I just don't have any more room in the car. I need a truck...
