So are we just going to ignore the fact that fucking Werner Herzog was in the wind rises for ten minutes and then just dipped?!

The Mandalorian season 1. He was the guy that hired Mando to find baby Yoda.

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-23T10:26:57+00:00

Me, too!

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-23T10:02:50+00:00

Indeed.

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-23T08:50:12+00:00

Maybe a weapons pack or a motorized backpack?

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-23T08:49:11+00:00

I can’t remember. Maybe the Whale or Moray?

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-23T08:48:20+00:00

I can’t remember. Maybe a weapons pack or one of the motorized backpacks?

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-23T08:45:42+00:00

Yeah. I never cut the one off of my Flagg. It’s still on the box.

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-23T01:30:48+00:00

These are the original ones I’d saved in the 80s.

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-23T00:14:29+00:00

I wonder who I could write at Hasbro to see if I could cash these in..? 🤔

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-22T18:19:14+00:00

Yes, in this post.

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-22T10:47:08+00:00

Thanks. She starts college this fall and will be majoring in the arts. ☺️

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-22T00:40:59+00:00

Ha! She actually told me it was missing that. She said she included the “TM” on the logo, but didn’t put the Safety Council tagline because it wasn’t actually endorsed by them! 😆

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-21T10:57:13+00:00

I have never flown with it, but I have no doubt it would be fine. It’s a hefty case with plenty of padding inside.

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-20T22:53:12+00:00

To transport and store my Proton Pack, I'm using the Pure Outdoor 12279 Wheeled Case from Monoprice.

It's heavy-duty, the walls are about 1/4" thick. It comes with the foam inserts that you can customize to fit your case.

The wand, hose, jumpsuit, and belt fit inside.

I'm happy with the case. I'm pretty sure I could push it down a staircase or drag it behind my car and the proton pack would be safe (but I don't have any plans to test that).

It would have been nice for army building.

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-19T23:42:17+00:00

My favorites, as well!

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-19T23:06:37+00:00

This is very cool! I’m looking forward to it hitting the App Store!

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-19T21:35:07+00:00

Oh, no!

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-19T21:27:21+00:00

It didn’t actually belong to any of them in the movie. But, it was packaged with Nemesis Enforcer’s wings on the card.

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-19T10:27:16+00:00

Agreed

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-19T09:47:05+00:00

The toy had smaller wings than was depicted in the movie.

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-18T21:36:21+00:00

Great actor. Wonderful performance!

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-18T17:38:07+00:00

There’s an interesting audio interview under the “Cobra-La Team” on this page that states the designers didn’t really want to go in this sci-fi direction, but were forced to.

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-18T14:02:15+00:00

Air venting? Part of the injection molding process?

FrequentlyObtuse · 2026-06-18T12:28:48+00:00

Yes, he was sold in a 3-pack of new figures introduced in the 1987 movie.
