Star Whoas

    The day after my great day of trading led to a not so good day at DTD. Ive recently been in pursuit of Hans from Star Wars 2 which had lead to finding all of the Star Wars 2 except Lea,Obi Wan,the Chaser, and HANS! But anyway back on track this day I got another Star Wars 2 in hopes that this time I would get lucky. So I picked one up and opened the box to find a Tusken Sand Raider which I all ready had one of but I figured what the heck Ill keep him maybe ill end up with and army of Sand Raiders by the time I'm done with this search. So my friend took him out of the box and asks me. "What am I supposed to do with his hammer?" I told him to put it in his hand and he just gave me this look and said what hand? I said the griped one duh. Then he shows it to me a says. "He has two left hands!" And true it was there was my Tuskan Raider who comes with a hammer and has to have a gripped hand lacking one. I thought to myself how does something like this even happen? It wouldn't be a big deal if he didn't come with a hammer. BUT HE DOES! Yet again it got me thinking with the recent flaws of Furry Friends and Whiskers and Tails what really goes on over in that Vinylmation factory?  So if I got a Raider with two left hand does that mean somewhere out there is one with two right hands. But this ends my rant on that I just had to get that out lol. If any one else has had similar incidents happen I be more than happy to hear about it
Now what am I supposed to do with this

Treasured Tails

We all remember the outlandish story of the Furry Friends. A series released and just about the same time pulled from the shelves before some people had a chance to pick one up or even knew they were released yet. I may get criticized for saying this but I think the whole thing was blew out of proportion just because of some painting problems, but lets get to the whole reason for this post. I happened to be one of those people to show up to the Florida Mall Disney Store in hopes to pick one up only to find out they've been recalled at the time I had hopes that maybe D-Street might just might have them but also to a fail no luck so I was stuck to turn to eBay. I was able to find a Trusty on eBay for a reasonable price just about the same I would have paid if I had bought on Disney Store.com however this was before prices skyrocketed after word was released that they would not be released. Anyway after a long week of waiting for my very own Furry Friend it showed up however what was in the box was not a Trusty but an even better vinyl the seller had sent me Oliver on mistake! I was very excited since Oliver was my favorite from the series but i could not find on for a cheap price on eBay. Ever since then Oliver was added to my favorites collection along with my AP Orange Bird, CM Mickey, and Park 8 Epcot map as I have stated in a previous post I liked so much I have two.
Oops Ive happened to leave my poor CM Mickey out of the picture, but don't worry you'll see him in a future post.
(Also on a side note to those who may be wondering my Oliver has no noticeable errors on it at all)
