The Force Action Figure - Now Available!


A while back, I referred to the Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru action figures, which I had figured finally covered all of the major characters in Episode 4.  Little did I know that one of the most important concepts in the Star Wars canon was still awaiting representation - The Force!

That oversight has now been addressed:


Sold out on ebay, the Force was going for a $13.95 "Buy it Now" price.  Keep an eye on the seller - he has Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru on sale now, and hopefully will have some more Force figures will become available.

Survivor 28 BBB - Beauty, Brains and Brawn?





Just watching the Survivor 27 - Blood Vs. Water Finale, and a quick clip was shown to tease Season 28. The clip showed the letter "B" repeated three times, interspersed with someone doing a physical challenge, what appears to be a puzzle, and a woman in the water. Quick guess - Survivor 28 will begin with three tribes divided into "Beauty", "Brains" and "Brawn".  What do you think?

Update:  Jeff Probst confirmed the theme for Season 28 at the end of the reunion show:  "Survivor Cagayan: Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty", starting with three tribes of all new players.  Hope they can keep up the level of this season, which has been the best in years!
