| 2043 | Article | SegaFanatic | Their references can be well done, but I pretty much dropped the series when it got brought back again. It's a beast that won't die! | Feb 23, 2015 |  | |
| 2031 | Article | Vaporman87 | First of all, I have bad news. Sonic figures are still made to be broken within minutes. Jazzwares didn't learn any lessons from Resaurus when it comes to toy manufacturing. My kids have broken so many Sonic figures I could have 3 whole collections of them if they were all in tact. And I agree that rubber band hips were just a terrible and lazy idea. Unfortunately G.I. Joe wasn't the only popular figure out there sporting rubber hips. He-Man did as well. Lazy articulation is what I call that (though in Mattel and Hasbro's defense, the kind of articulation you see today just wasn't around then, and likely would have been so cost prohibitive that you would have never had the opportunity to own the figures period). | Toy Annihilation | Feb 21, 2015 | |
| 2036 | Article | pikachulover | The strange thing is that I never had a problem with my Power Ranger figures breaking. | Toy Annihilation | Feb 22, 2015 | |
| 2045 | Article | Fulton4V | I always had my GIJOES break when I played with them. My mom would accuse me of being to rough on them but it was just they were cheaply made with those plastic bands on them. | Toy Annihilation | Feb 23, 2015 | |
| 2058 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I think I was just way to precious about my action figures to even get close to breaking them. I do remember a few chewed MOTU figure fingers, but nothing where the whole toy came apart. The closest I got to seeing G.I. Joes break was my friend's brother who would mix and match limbs to create new mutant characters. So I guess the fact that the figures were easily dismantled was a plus to him. | Toy Annihilation | Mar 02, 2015 | |
| 2315 | Article | DirtyD79 | I hear ya on the one about the GI Joes. In addition to the rubber band inside breaking sometimes the thumbs would break off too. While the figures that had broken rubber bands we went the ghetto fab route and just taped them back together. The ones with the broken thumbs you could pretty much just put them in a vehicle since they couldn't hold guns or anything. A GIJoe who can't hold guns just isn't really a GI Joe anymore. It's like a Transformer that can't transform or a Ninja Turtle that couldn't hold swords. That was another one sometimes the hands would break off and well they'd be useless. Then again me and my bro were pretty rough on our toys. | Toy Annihilation | Jun 23, 2015 | |
| 2050 | Article | Vaporman87 | You know, one has to wonder... was Paul acting out because he knew the show was ending, and he figured he needed to break away from his alter ego in order to get a different range of parts? I thought he did really well in Buffy The Vampire Slayer (the movie, not the atrocious television series). Cool fun facts Hoju. Thanks for sharing a few from the book. | Pee-wee Herman Fun Facts | Feb 25, 2015 | |
| 2054 | Article | echidna64 | Thanks Hoju! P.W. still crack's me up and his great adventure is one of my favorite movies! Pee-wee's Christmas Special is a must see for fans! I also heard that Rob Zombie was a production assistant on Pee-wee's playhouse lol | Pee-wee Herman Fun Facts | Feb 25, 2015 | |
| 2056 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @echidna64 You're welcome. The Christmas Special was actually the result of a writer's strike. The 3rd season got cut short, so they threw together all those guest stars who had been asking for a chance to be on the show into that holiday madness. @Vaporman87 Yeah, his endless death scene was about the only memorable part of that movie. | Pee-wee Herman Fun Facts | Feb 27, 2015 | |
| 3419 | Article | Ches | I don't think Paul was acting out, to be honest... I believe he just did what he wanted to do without giving it a second thought. Anyway, we'll never know what was on his mind back then. Gotta admit, this story captivates me, and so does this whole Pee-wee's Herman universe... Thank you for the article, it was a good read. | Pee-wee Herman Fun Facts | Mar 05, 2016 | |
