toys

Bummer alert! There's not gonna be a page posted this weekend, as this week is bursting with extra work shifts and family events. We'll still post some badass art from Jessica this Saturday, but the next page will have to wait until December 6. Bummer alert over.

And now it's time for me to talk to you about He-Man.

One of my earliest memories is playing on a big dirt pile outside my house with my Man-E-Faces toy. Masters of the Universe bedsheets served as my nightly shield against the monsters of the dark. He-Man and the Masters of the Universe is the very first franchise I can remember being a big fan of.

This past year, Jessica and I have watched a bunch of episodes from the orignal He-Man cartoon. Holy shit can that show be awesomely retarded. But I'm not talking about the cartoon today. Nor the Dolph Lundgren movie. We'll save those for another time.

Today, it's all about the toys. Er, the toy commercials, actually. I had a pretty decent collection of Masters of the Universe toys (including Castle Greyskull and Snake Mountain), but upon watching this collection of Masters of the Universe toy commercials, I feel fucking robbed. How did I ever make it through my childhood without a Land Shark? Or Moss Man?! Fuck!

This is my Thanksgiving gift to all of you:
