That's true enough, but if they somehow found their way to performing in a Chip n Dale's show after the fight, Quick Kick would be far more appropriately attired than either Stalker or Snow Job. What? Hamas's written more far-fetched stories than that.

Just got Dusty and Zarana in from Amazon.
As expected, Dusty looks totally fine in hand and not nearly as bad as all the over-reactionary reviews and posts as photos started to trickle out. In the normal daylight environment of my office, I don't notice a color mismatch at all unless I start looking for it, and even then, it's minimal. His torso is alot different than his arms in your pics |

I bet you a dollar that Lenny designs removable shoes for Classified Quick Kick. Or swappable feet.

I'm fine with Quick Kick taking forever. I've got a SOTA Feilong taking his spot and I'm OK.

It's bad enough that S.J. is in cold weather gear, but Quick Kick is doin' entirely too much. How are you going to be on a mission with no shirt, no boots, no gear and your only weapons are throwing stars and a pair of nunchuks and you wonder why he's W.I.A. Off topic, this was a dope story arc.

Given your username, I'm assuming that Dusty is your favorite character. You may be disappointed regardless because I think he is far from being one of the better figures in the line. He's also far from being one of the worst too. Your mileage may vary. |

I one hundred percent believe we should be taught history as it was. We should not forget. That does not mean we have to glorify or respect a flag and rebellion that fought for the right to enslave other people. It spells it out pretty clearly if you go back and read history. Some of my ancestors fought in the confederacy but does not change the fact that it was wrong and treasonous. And I don't have to try to white wash what they did to make myself feel better about myself and who I am.
I think people that want to say the Confederates were bad or evil or any of that nonsense just aren't looking at things realistically. 1. They are looking at things through the lens of today, with all of the internet and knowledge available at their fingertips. You have to realize that back then, the Confederacy were normal people going about their lives and didn't have access to any of this information. They didn't have the internet or the ability to weigh the macro politics. They probably had no news from the Northern perspectives and most likely couldn't read or write. If you asked a Southern Soldier what he was fighting for, he wasn't going to say he supports slavery. He might not even know that was something that people were against. He probably was just a normal dude living a tiny life on the land and somebody said to him "the yankees are gonna take your shit and tell you how to live"... so it makes every bit of sense for people to defend their states without considering what people in the North were thinking. 2. The war wasn't just about slavery. I learned that in elementary school. And slavery wasn't a new thing that the South started. And all the people that had slaves weren't evil.. it was common to own slaves. Maybe 50 years from now everyone will be saying that all the companies manufacturing goods from China were evil.. you have to consider context if you are going to sit in judgement of others. Even black people owned slaves. All these black people now talking about the need to erase history.. probably don't even want to realize that its likely their own ancestors owned/sold/beat other slaves. 3. These ideas change over time and the victors write history. Why were the Southern states treasonous?? because they resisted what the North told them to do? We have states resisting the federal government today, and they are not called treasonous. California has decided many times recently that they are outside of Federal control, nobody has an issue with that. 4. people need to stop being offended by everything... or thinking that the world needs to change based off of our feelings. I have zero issue with the confederate flag. And even if I did I don't think the world revolves around appeasing my feelings. |

Hopefully when I come back you're not still trying to save the day and set us all straight by being a "historian". |
