The mailman brought me ninjas!

Yeeeeeah. 8 ninjas.


Ever notice how the mail's never on time when you're expecting something? Maybe these guys gave him some trouble.

Cobra!

Okay, so I'm a huge GI Joe geek. Always have been. When I was a kid, I had probably 100 or more different Joes. They're sadly all gone now, an unfortunate result of moving around so much. But I got back into them last year, when I was at target and saw the Cobra 5-Pack that had the new 25th Anniversary Cobra Commander, Destro, Storm Shadow, Baroness and Cobra Trooper. I promptly fell back in love with them, and now I have 22 figures and counting. There are more on their way, blindly clawing their path through the US postal system to my mailbox. That'd be the Cobra Ninja Strike Force, Snake Eyes/Hard Master comic pack, and a 25th Anniversary B.A.T.

So here are a few pics of my collection so far.

As you can see, I'm working on ninjas and robots. Because the world needs more of both.

And now, your host...

Hi there. I'm Jason, and this is my blog. It's called Foolproof, and I think you're gonna dig it. We'll be covering all kinds of things that I think I have a witty opinion of. Whether or not you, the readers out there in Internet Land, agree remains to be seen. So back to covering things, my main areas of geekdom include, but are not limited to: Metal, guitars, classic video games, current video games, movies, cartoons, just about anything horror-themed, British comedy, stand-up comedy, books, G.I. Joe collecting (just Cobra, mostly. Except for Snake-Eyes), action figures and toys in general, cooking, Mystery Science Theater 3000 and its modern incarnations, EBaying, writing (obviously), studying people. (List in no particular order, unless you are currently residing in the Republic of Congo and/or its emissaries, in which case the order is backward from #12)

Anyway, enough with the incomplete lists. I plan to be posting things a lot, as many things catch my attention. Hopefully you'll find something that interests you.
