L.A. area Just Found

I was looking for a clip of Cleo saying "Have I ever steered you wrong?" from the Clifford PBS show, but it appears no one with the knowledge and inclination to upload it has done so.

I'll be sure to stash that next time I see it.

If it's PBS, can't you just get the video online, or buy it from them? Have you looked through their clips on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/PBS/videos?query=clifford
Ugh, she's voiced by Cree Summer, her voice is super grating to me, I'd help find one in there but her voice makes me want to gouge my ears out.

EDIT: here's the episode where she first says the catchphrase, you can find it at 8:50 - http://www.3kid.net/docs/0210/1302943634.htm

Nah, I just wanted to link it here in response to JJL's post.

Luckily, little kids don't mind watching the same episodes over and over, so they aren't bothered by that annoying little fact there can be no more eps because Clifford is dead.

I edited it in my previous post, but you can grab the audio out of this: here's the episode where she first says the catchphrase, you can find it at 8:50 - http://www.3kid.net/docs/0210/1302943634.htm

Louis CK has a bit about watching Clifford with his kids, it's seriously naughty language but had me in stitches.

Ok, so let's get some schedules and distances together.

Anybody else?

[El Chuxter]

I cannot drive more than seven miles, and it must be after midnight or my car turns into a pumpkin.

[Maradona]

Maradona: Schedule unknown. Distance unknown.

I'm free most evenings. I'd prefer weekends. I'd drive as many miles as anyone would willing to in order to meet at an equidistant location. I cannot on Jan. 25, since I have to attend an evening function.

I found a lot of stuff today at Target:

New (puny, pathetic, petite ships):

Republic Tank
Slave-One
Jedi Starfighter

New vehicle /2-figure 2packs:

Tactical Droid and ATRT Driver with ATRT*
Pilot Droid and Obi-Wan Kenobi with flying mini-TT**
Yoda's Jedi Attack Starfighter with Super Battle Droid and Yoda***
Mini-Drop Ship with tan battle droid and Clone Pilot****

*I would really like the Tactical Droid sold separately again with the original TX-20 paint scheme. I'm not buying this. I like AT-RTs in the movie gray and I'm looking to buy a 2nd one that was the motorized scale from the ROTS issue (maybe. I might have one more in storage already. So maybe in the middle of next summer I'll finally know.)

** The mini-TT is actually kind of cool. It reminds me of a Predator drone from the US AirForce kind of crossed with something from Terminator and something of an MTT all in one. It's actually tempting. The first drawback is that it comes with that pathetic Obi-Wan figure which I have absolutely no need for. Also, I don't really need this vehicle either, but I'm slowly working on an excuse to buy it anyway. That hasn't happened yet.

*** "A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense. Never for attack" - YODA, Ep5, ESB. Yeah, thanks for ruining a character just to make something toyetic, Hasbro. Even as a kid I understood what Yoda was saying. I thought that was cool about his character and also why I'd be a DARK Jedi if I were a character in Star Wars - just because I WOULD use the Force for attack. But Yoda would not. Really Hasbro? At least they didn't do Plo Koon again - though he actually had scenes in his ship, as did Kit Fisto (vs. Grievous), but SaeSee Tiin was the best Jedi Pilot seen in a ship, though Adi Gallia was also said to be good, too. I'm not counting Anakin Skywalker for the moment.

****This is toyetic for kids to play with and drop off their clones. I don't play with my toys though. I set up dioramas and don't really have a use for this one. But it's not a bad set for kids.

++++ (I know....BORING) mini-rigs that I would actually buy would be the Senate platforms, Coruscant Taxis, possibly small landspeeders (though they should be 2-4 seaters like the Gian Speeder and the Lars' landspeeder)

^^^^ Luke's T-16 might work for this line - very underscale, but it would bring a classic character back out and it really isn't a key OT ship so it need not be scaled even like the old '79 mold X-wing.

I don't want to see Han or Chewie, or Boba Fett for that matter, with some kind of cargo loader thing that shoots all kinds of weapons, but maybe kids will? Don't know. But I don't need to buy 'em. The vehicle maintainence energizer accessory set from the KENNER days would be great for Han or Chewie (maybe Chewie and Han could be re-released with the Bespin torture chair or a really awesome "big kit / lotta display options" carbonite block for use with a figure inside and out! Leia Slave could come back with the Sailbarge cannon and Luke Bacta Tank could be re-released (possibly with 21-B and FX-7 even). Vader and his meditation chamber of course.

Hey -maybe sell the throne (with Bib Fortuna and Oola) and Jabba the Hutt with Leia Boussh and a Gamorrean Guard as OT "vehicle w. figure 2-packs? That's about the same amount of plastic and less tooling than these mini-rigs, plus stuff to sell to kids on the OT that hasn't been seen out for a while.

Then make Hasbro some money so they can make ME a Sailbarge, the Twilight, full-scale class 2 assortment vehicles for Hondo Ohnaka and other stuff I really want.

ANYWAY: TRANSFORMERS JUST FOUND NEWS:

All the FOC (Fall of Cybertron) Combaticons.

I like Brawl and Blast Off for individual consumption. I have no desire to build Bruticus or own the other 3. Vortex looks especially awful but Swindle and Onslaught are not inspiring.
