[Trivial Psychic]

So the other day, I dropped by my local grocery store to pick up some basics, when I ran into this guy of all things in the toy aisle...


Was SUPER stoked to finally run into the new Turtle Van at TRU tonight on the way home from work. While I don't have any of the movie turtles other than Shredder and April, I couldn't resist picking it up for my Nickelodeon Turtles because I HATED the Shellraiser design. It was basically a rolling box to put the turtles in. This one actually has seats and a steering wheel of all things! TRU actually refused to sell it to me at first, citing embargo reasons, but I was able to coerce them by telling them that I'll simply take my money elsewhere. They changed their tune shortly afterwards.


Then when I got home, my order from Ringside Collectibles was waiting for me. Demolition Crush! At the risk of exposing a possible hidden man-crush (no pun intended) I actually got a little misty eyed when I saw the beautiful portrait of Brian Adams on the side of the box, because I grew up in Kailua-Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii, and was blessed enough to actually meet Brian on more than one occasion. It brought back a flood of memories. He was a true gentle giant, very soft spoken, and one of the nicest, sweetest and humble guys you could hope to meet. R.I.P. Brian Adams...
