Cheap Thrills

So, I think I've discovered a new secret love:

The Undiscovered Playthings Blog

This blog is window shopping for us true nerds. And I give you Exhibit A:

It's Star Knight!!




I like to imagine that at some point after Return of the Jedi, Darth Vader came back to life. Ruing his past evils, Darth dedicates his life to nothing but law and order. Thus, he joins the cast of CHiPs and tracks down speeders on the 101.



I'm really not too sure what IC SOUND is, but it's gotta be something amazing or Darth Vader wouldn't endorse it.

You've got to check out the Undiscovered Playthings Blog. It's chock full of those bootleg toys that you never knew existed. Toys you shouldn't own, but, doggone it, you just gotta have.

Grandma Got Run Over By CHiPs...

Alright, I've got to get this off my chest: CHiPs is the greatest cop show to ever grace the small screen. Comedy. Drama. Action. Romance. CHiPs had it all. To this day, whenever I'm in L.A., I expect to see Ponch and John cruising down the Santa Monica Freeway on their Kawasakis hunting down a gang of thieves that use trained hawks to steal purses from unsuspecting old ladies.

Unfortunately, I never realized my dream of working with Ponch, John, and Sgt. Getraer. But never fear, I've got the CHiPs Color-Form set to keep me fulfilled in life.






This bad boy is jam packed with delicious CHiPs goodness. And in case my imagination is shot, it comes with a booklet of delightful CHiPs ideas.



I love how I can knock some speeding scum bag upside the head. Unfortunately, it doesn't come with the option of having Ponch and John use their .45's to draw down on some low-life that stole an orphanages bus just days before Christmas.



However, it does come with these freaky half bodies. Did the CHiPs officers ever have to face down a sadistic serial killer? Maybe that's a scene waiting to happen.
