Another great Joe from Hasbro

Tue, 14 Jan 2003 00:25:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - As noted in the "pros" section, he's a "Classic Collection" figure so he's suitable for any child that's old enough to not try to eat the smaller parts. The body is going to outlive any childhood no matter how protracted it might be.

IE5.5beta is a virus!

Mon, 1 May 2000 19:12:27 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - I'm a long-time lover of IE, and most people I know are so I had to post this as a warning.

It's beta, and that means it WILL have bugs....but IE5.5beta operates unlike any other bug you'll find.

The first problem you'll find after...

Cool blue

Fri, 31 Mar 2000 16:17:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - This one is another offering in the "New Adventure Team" Joe line and is obviously meant to fill a niche in the action figure market that remained vacant once Joe and Big Jim went off the market in the late 70's.

Designed especially...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - The first thought I had after popping this one in was "hey, great premise....put a representative cross section of society in a stressful situation and see how they develop".

About thirty minutes later, even that broad premise is...

Little Smart "Explore My School": Another great one from Vtech!

Wed, 1 Mar 2000 17:59:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - While my wife and I don't have any children of our own, having the several nieces and nephews over on the weekends gives us a chance to experience the joys of parenting first hand. (Read that as "we get to spoil them and you get to put up with them...

An angelic smile

Fri, 18 Feb 2000 07:30:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - There is a distinct type of fear that everyone goes through when they go into combat for the first time. A disgustingly deep feeling like your insides are tying themselves in knots....that moves up to your shaking hands and on to the metal-taste in your...

Great movie, great Price!

Wed, 16 Feb 2000 07:07:00 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - Classic Vincent price at his absolute best!

Vincent price stars as a *badly* scarred man, assumed dead, who seeks revenge on the doctors who he blames for his wife's death....and knowing Price, you *know* it will be sweet revenge.

Once great....

Tue, 15 Feb 2000 22:17:32 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - Nothing is more pitiful than a "once great" who doesn't seem to know when his time is past. As hard as it is to watch them try....deep inside you always want them to hit that one last homerun or score that one last touchdown....but you always...

Black stars meant something

Tue, 1 Feb 2000 05:15:30 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - All war movies to date can be divided into two main categories....those that declare "our guys are the best of heroes and will always come across as such", and those that look at war from the inside and try to capture what the war does to the...

great, but NOT for children!

Tue, 1 Feb 2000 03:39:38 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - Another great offering from 21st Century in their modern uniforms line....

As highly detailed and exacting in accuracy as they have come to be these days, you would think they could find a niche in the markets and stick to it, but once again...

Great pack for the price!

Sat, 29 Jan 2000 21:52:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - I got my first Camptrails pack back in 76 when I joined the Boyscouts, and I loved that old bright orange thing! What it lacked in color coordination, it more than made up for in durability.

Camptrails, today, combines great looks with some...

G.I. Joe Challenge at Hawk River: Hot, Wet, and Hairy!

Fri, 28 Jan 2000 13:06:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - This guy is probably the best GI Joe to come out of Hasbro in about 25 years!

Recreates the look and feel of the original Adventure Team Joes from the early 70s, but in a totally new and modern way that any kid will enjoy!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - Oh, you've heard that one? Ok, I won't tell it then :)

My wife saw this little guy on a rack in the local wallyworld and picked him up as a joke since she knew I had owned several as a child.

I ripped the blister-packed guy outta...

Could possibly save GIJoe?

Fri, 28 Jan 2000 12:16:42 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - My wife and I purchased several of these for the nephews when they were on sale just before Christmas. The nephews ended up getting one each and I got the extra one.

This set is highly reminiscent of the old Adventure Team GI Joe line from...

1999 Subaru Legacy Wagon: Fun in the snow!

Fri, 28 Jan 2000 11:54:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author redjack - Twenty inches of snow in two days, and another inch of ice under that. My wife and I have owned other SUVs, and even currently own a Jeep, but this is by far the best handling vehicle we have ever had the pleasure of driving in bad conditions! Jeeps,...
