    The Official Articulated Thoughts Baseball Thread

    Where is the ignore button again? ;) (As I noted, the Phillies are also dear to my heart, so I still have some lingering animosity towards the Blue Jays going back to 1993 and Joe Carter vs Mitch William in the WS. I also think since the M's and Jays came into the league the same time...

    The Official Articulated Thoughts Baseball Thread

    I've been meaning to write a fan post about how, with 30 teams in MLB, the average per franchise will be 30 years between World Series victories - put another way, a franchise will average about 5,000 games for every game they play that clinches a WS title. On one hand, it makes being close and...

    Disappointing, and frustrating - but soon I am sure I will be happy with this season, happy with the core of the team, happy with the players from the minors who might come up for support, happy with the effort from the team all year - and happy about the prospects for the future. 27 other...

    Star Wars Movie and Streaming Series Discussion

    If they came in with both a good and economical idea and it still got shot down is absurd. But more likely they wanted to keep Kylo Ren as the new Darth Vader for marketing purposes, so any return to Ben Solo might undermine that? But Driver is right, if there was a coherent arc for his...

    Hasbro possibly doing Tron?

    Probably, trying to base it on what they are charging for the whole thing. I don't know, $60 would be defensible, $75 too high for me, but if they are trying to do premium 3.75 I'd expect them to price the figures at $25 to $30? I'm just saying that if they want this 375 thing to work I would...

    Hasbro possibly doing Tron?

    It can't help it, that's for sure. They probably won't do it, but I would be curious if they offered a Figure/Light Cycle 2-pack in the MtO range for say $60 to $75 would it sell? I think it might, and then they could repeat with different characters and Light Cycle colors.

    Imperial Guard - Rank and File

    Yeah, I was counting the whole list of 18 here - plus the ones we have already gotten - which puts it up to 20 figures. I would be fine with just a few to stand behind Lilandra and Gladiator, so will clarify I probably don't need $250 of Imperial Guard either...

    Imperial Guard - Rank and File

    I'd consider a couple more from X-Men 137, Manta and Warstar mainly, but I probably don't need $500 worth of Imperial Guard.

    Continuing my MCU rewatch

    I liked that so much of Phase 4 was essentially epilogues to/transitions from Endgame, but I feel that all of Phase 4 should have been focused on that, and held off on introducing new strands like Shang Chi and the Eternals, as well as Moon Knight and Ms. Marvel until Phase 5. I get what they...

    Agreed, my comparing Geno to Edgar's 1995 game 4 was me placing it in the top Mariner moments and performances! For context (many may not care), the 1995 ALDS was the first playoffs in Mariners history after 18 seasons. The team was rumored to be for sale to be moved, and it looked like another...

    Geno going all Edgar Martinez circa 1995 ALDS with two HRS including the go ahead Grand Slam! And that is high praise as Edgar's game 4 was the single greatest offensive performance in M's history, given the circumstances of win or go home...(2 HRs, 7 RBIs in that game) - Edgar's GS also came...

    McFarlane DC Retro (Batman '66, The New Adventures of Batman, Super Friends)

    Getting a Batcopter would be amazing at this point. I am disappointed we got the library playset but no civilian Bruce and Dick, and pink cowl Bats without Mad Hatter. Add another bad guy and we have a nice final wave.

    General Marvel Legends

    Smart Hulk was rumored as part of an upcoming Hulk wave, so that might make sense, but I am not seeing enough to think machine gun from the tease myself. Edit - they look like comic book-ish mortar shells. I'm going to go with Sgt Fury of the Howling Commandos, given they have some army stuff...

    And where is Spidey from? Boston? Chicago? New Haven? Detroit? Case closed for NYC. Thank you Spidey for ending this debate!

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    Pretty much like NY/NJ pizza. (Seriously, had pizza in Italy a few times, main difference is that some are a bit less "round" in shape, and a bit more basic, less likely to be loaded up.) Chicago deep dish pizza is like Chicago style hot dogs, overstuffed, overwrought, and morally wrong on...

    Supposedly the M's played "Not Like Us" during the introduction of the Blue Jays tonight. Absolutely savage and I am here for it.

    Cookie Monster like this one seemed dead on arrival, the Rancor and Ghost Rider at least seemed to have a chance. Granted, I probably didn't need a life size Cookie Monster replica...
