Back when I reported this news a few weeks ago I was in some form of excitement. That still hasn’t waned for the most part. It’s actually just switched gears a bit.

Maybe it was because it was time. Or the fact that she’d been replaced by a stronger, faster, YOUNGER version of herself. One does tend to contemplate the usefulness of themselves once they become ‘over the hill.’

Toys Toys Toys: Hot Toys Iron Patriot Makes An Appearance

[Ah toys. They’re the epitome of everyone’s childhood. For boys and girls alike, toys are what connects us to our fondest memories of our past. From gigantic robots to dress up dolls, they’re our time machines back to more carefree days. These days though, they make toys for big boys and big girls, too. Let’s take a look in this edition of Toy Section.]

Hot Toys figures make me want every release that comes out. Without fail. They’re arguably the most life like figures I’ve ever come across and sometimes almost push the boundaries of the Uncanny Valley.

POV: Bread End Pieces Get No Respect

I just don’t understand it. Am I not like everyone else? Don’t I help carry the team forward? I’m always in the line of fire ready to go, ready to sacrifice myself should the need arise. My partner and I, both on opposite ends of this family, do what’s necessary to protect each and every one of them before they see themselves off to the mouths and stomachs of every human being on this earth battle.

But still, my brother and I, we get no respect. None whatsoever. To everyone else we, and those like us, get thrown away. Relegated to the dark, bottom corner of the trash can, as if by some karmic plan we were meant to perpetuate our last days there.

To this I say, “Why?” Why must we be segregated to this way of life? To be kneaded and baked with love and attention, the warmth of the oven, only to bookend our fellow brethren before we all get bagged and sold to the markets for consumption. What of our needs? Why do our wants go unmet?

I suppose such is my fate, as is with all end pieces. I’ll just quietly walk forward into the line of sight. Whether I am a throwaway or lucky enough to at least be a part of a new group of individuals in the grand scheme of things. Peanut butter? Ham? Turkey? Maybe some Jelly? Or perhaps the multicultural Patè? Listen, I’ll even sacrifice myself in the torture-filled confines of a toaster heated coffin with Butter if it means being made into a sandwich salvation.

Sigh…
