What game was I watching? I have no idea...

That display has gotten bigger since that picture, though!
Yet it gets taken down tomorrow; presumably leaving a spot for whatever the hell I haven't put away at this point. I'm enjoying these, although they are more than a bit of a pain to track down, since you have to get each from somewhere else. Hasbro's done a couple Halloween ones too; and I'm legit wondering if Valentine's Day is next. If you see any of those on the cheap, I encourage you to grab them and sock them away somewhere: five or ten years, the aftermarket on those holiday figures is going to be huge; unless Hasbro reissues them all as a set. And if they do, well, an excuse to open up a "decoration" you can play with. Anyway, as always, Merry Happy to everybody; and after the break, holiday reruns! Tomorrow, we start "The End" week with more last issues; and the Year in Toys is coming up. Ooh, better get started.







It's not a perennial holiday classic...yet; but I rerun this one every Christmas: "How Deadpool saved assisted didn't wreck had Christmas." See how our production standards have barely incrementally changed in like eleven years! Although, Die Hard wasn't universally accepted as a Christmas movie back then, as it is today.

As usual, click to unwrap, er, enlarge. Not sure of the setup? The first strip's waaaay back here.





What the heck, you've been good this year...he says, based on nothing; so let's have another holiday re-run: "Jingle Bells, Blame Mattel..."





And for good measure, here's the 2015 Christmas strip, "Do They Know It's X-Mas Time at All?" Pool and Kurt had been in space for about 21 months at that point, so yeah, that plotline went on.

These classic Christmas skits never get old. More must see viewing than the friggin Macy's Thanksgiving Parade.
