Toy Fair- Turtle Pics





Some great images of the new upcoming turtle figures. Sculpts that I am looking forward to owning are the Metalhead, Leatherhead and Shredder figures.

One thing I am not a huge fan on is the original artwork on the backside of the Classic turtles. I feel like the market is now saturated with this image and companies like Spencers and Hot Topic have created this shitty looking standard of how to use the turtles and it is always using that really "Cartoony" way of portraying them. It is fine since they are the classics, but i always groan when i see this style used.

All in all- very satisfied with the work and I think that Nickelodeon is really doing it right so far.

Prometheus Poster Dissect


Okay so now "Prometheus" is on my brain because it is very likely it is a prequel to the original "Alien" now that i have watched the trailer. You clearly see the Space Jockey emerge from the floor half way through the trailer and some semblance of the rows of eggs in a chamber. Yup...likely to be prequel!

This now has taken priority over all other movies...Avengers, Batman.

I naturally am dissecting everything now including the movie poster. On further look at this art and copy this is my thought on why humans are exploring space and why they find what they find on LV-426. In the poster you can see a cement sculpt of a human head and with the copy line "The search for our beginning, could lead to our end.

My thought is that the reason they have that image is that it is a mayan visual que. Meaning that humans are looking or discovered that Aliens came down to earth and they are following possibly a beacon they discovered on earth that is leading them to Alien homeworld or LV-426 and are discovering why there is such intricate structures in Mayan culture.

I don't know, might be reaching. I am just trying to explain why there is a stone head in there and why that is so important playing with the copy. I don't know.

Prometheus=wet my pants with excitement!

The Hobbit!
