I’ll Never Be Anybody’s Hero Now

My intention to post a new, fun display from The Clone Wars series was halted by AT&T’s, uh, lacklustre service, but… if you’ve got the time, and you don’t mind…

 

DisPLAY With Your Toys From The Clone Wars #1.

Off the top of my head…
Cody’s blast is blue because he doesn’t use that weapon all that often. Clone Trooper skidding into home under the Separatist Crab Droid is either the product of a rapid-training military school education and a give ‘em hell attitude — or it’s better to go down guns blazing than to be walked upon by the enemy.

2009 — A Year In Refute, Too (Mea Culpa)

First off, this should have been posted on SATURDAY (because of the rich heritage of cool Star Wars action figure and toy commercials) but AT&T decided to have a day of digital schizophrenia (i.e. home connection went up and down and all-around).

After writing a brief and not-too-kind rundown of toys from The Clone Wars action figure line, by Hasbro, I read and re-read the piece. It felt like a summary dismissal. So I busted out every ‘toon toy that I could find, and I had a blast with them. Since my motto is, "DisPLAY with your toys!" I started setting up a cool display for them, and — as we slide into American International Toy Fair 2010 — I’m going to feature the fun that I found just by taking the time to have some fun with a pretty incredible (and vast — it’s Clones-A-Go-Go around here) toy line. Just ignore any obvious hot glue, please.

So… to kick things off, here’s the official Turbo Tank commercial from the coolness-makers at Hasbro. [Please note that this commercial was produced by Hasbro, and is presented here by GalacticHunter in HD resolution for your viewing pleasure.]

Here’s a short link to share this with your friends: http://bit.ly/9oMBkF (kids get your parents’ permission, etc. etc.) and have fun! Why the heck didn’t I find an HD version of this on YouTube???

Behold… (a still at least) of Han Solo in "unique attire"!  (Notice the welding accessory, which we’ve seen a time or two.) Will this be the Han Solo for 2010?
