The only way I'm finding something suitable is if I find an old image from the ol' Elections and redoctor it...

I'm sure you've seen them, but have you managed to procure one of these for the collection?

I passed on the inflato-chair several times... takes up too much space, and I have a cat so it wouldn't last long anyways.

And my scheme to hijack the USPS mail droid was vetoed, as it would have been a felony or two... and I couldn't find anyone that would help lift it into my truck after cutting the bolts.

You had no one to help you lift it into the truck???

Dude, I'd have done it for a burrito and splitting a six-pack laughing afterwards..

I nearly bought one of those last year at Comic Con. But then I got closer to the table and the sheer crappieness of it set in...

I own the Artoo-Potatoo, actually. It's undersized and not all that great of a toy. It's locked into those parts, so you can't swap it with any of the other potato head line. Next to my Optimash Prime, it sadly looks inferior.
You know, if I see links to Brickshelf, more often than not, the first thing I click is the "Back" button.

Seeing some of the names of the sites these items are found on is funnier than some of the items. "Craphound.com", "Idiottoys.com"?! Priceless. :lol:

Can't access Flikr from office so this might be there. Ever see a RDD2/C3PO rubiks cube? If not I can find the one at home in a drawer somewhere and take a pic. Not sure where/when I got it.
