Toysday: A Little off "Track"

    But trying to get some traction...

      So first off, Apologies to Big Tone, this was supposed to be Shelf pics, but the weekend didn't turn out quite that way. Hope this is a good replacement for now, and next week will be better

     This week has kind of Hounded me.




     The world has been on the Warpath
 But I have tried to keep an indomitable, Hardhead






And all this to show off Bulldog- In my estimation the most amazing thing Toyworld has done in a long time. From the amazing paint deco to the intricate nothing-wasted transformation, to the spot on likeness to the brief appearances of the character in "the Last Knight"

He's a hella fun toy 




A nice Cobblestone base


With removable Cap

Helmet

Gasmask

Alternate head

And he salutes you, my readers

Friday Funnies: Unknown Etymologies

     Been a while since I have laid down a Friday Funnies post- a friends Facebook post got me started on this- these are origins of some words you may not know- Thanks, Harold Blulite for getting me going.


Bamboozled- Verb- To Confuse or con someone into buying asian plants from the grass family

Discombobulated- Adjective- To be confused and puzzled about the fact that Robert is no longer here

Cattywampus- Adjective- Thrown askew, by a fight between some cats and a fictional snowbeast from Star Wars

Lollygag- Verb- To dawdle, but quietly because one has a large piece of hard candy attached to a stick in ones mouth

Skedaddle- Verb- To leave quickly across the snow on two thin pieces of wood

Arbitrary-Adjective- A capricious or needless choice to eat at Arby's-Example: Mr Smith arbitrarily insisted his Vegetarian sister have lunch with him at Arby's because they have the meats

I had some dental work done yesterday and ended up in this conversation at 4:30 AM- This is not my weirdest ever conversation with my roommate, nor hers with me.

     I've made a few posts about Jetfire- The Robotech figure that almost filled the spot, The Thrilling 30th version...
