Cool, a Ben 10 toy. Didn't know there were some. 
Oh yes, the blaster. Finally noticed now. Wonder if it can be modded for paintball

Interesting. Never heard of it. Kinda sad that I can compare them to KB and K-Mart though.

Those have been out out a while now. All of the looking I've done for Devastator in recent weeks, and all I find is stuff I mostly already have and this Ben 10 stuff.
My vote for the HOF goes to my favorite Transformer, Kup, to the Headmasters (who still need new figures that aren't just the characters without their master components) and to seibertron.com for for being the ultimate TF resource.

It's not a chain. I don't understand the confusion? There are plenty of independently own toy stores around the country. And often times they have to buy from distributors instead of directly fron the manufacturer resulting in higher prices. What they offer is convenience to the people in the town by being local. Do I shop there, not often. But sometimes they'll have some rare stuff that ends up on e-bay for significantly more than the store is selling them for.

I know that many smaller toy shops and KB like to over charge for toys, but I have to say that FAO Swartz was among the worst of the big name stores out there. I think this was one of the things that lead to most, if not all, of them closing down around the country.

Agreed! My TRU still has DVD Prime priced at $90. It's not gonna sell at that price, considering everywhere else already liquidated theirs for $50 or less.

While I was half-joking, I also don't really follow toy lines. It's just that I first heard about this Ben 10 on AFN and never thought it would have it's own toy line. I guess I should be expecting a toy line for every cartoon out there from now on
Aaand, does anyone know if one size fits all? I know at the Show West gig it seemed pretty much one size fits all, but anyone else, preferably any adult hand, ever held this blaster?
