Pretty much everything I want to talk about are things I can’t talk about with the general public. All the general public topics seem like they would just cause fights in the comments. It feels like the world is running out of lighthearted things to talk about sometimes.

Oh, I know. The other day I decided to buy an original Masters Of The Universe Horde Slime Pit. I never had one as a kid, but always wanted to see one in real life. They aren’t too rare second hand so I was able to get one pretty easily in okay shape. I cleaned it all up and scraped off crust and marks until it was presentable. You can get slime pretty much anywhere now, so I had a can of the right color and consistency to be “toy accurate”. The MOTU Origins figures are a bit larger than the original figures, but not so much as to make them incompatible with older playsets. The extra articulation makes up for the size issues at least as far as the Slime Pit is concerned. I stuck He-Man in it and poured slime on him. Which isn’t as interesting written down as actually looking at it, but it is what it is. I can stick it next to Castle Grayskull and show my nephew when he visits next time. I think he’ll get a kick out of sliming figures with it.
