Jacob Black Barbie Error - Collector Doll?


Twilight Lexicon Reports:


One of the things we love about John Henson who has created the Twilight Costume Collection (filled with actual and replica costumes from the movies) is John’s attention to detail. Seriously nothing, and we do mean NOTHING gets by John. He wants things down to the lining in the jacket to be correct. If you doubt us just ask him about Bella’s St. Jude’s bracelet and you will get a whole lesson in beads, pictures, stringing etc.

John is also the mastermind who designed the costumes for the Hillywood Show’s New Moon parody. John even has a bit part in the video where he plays the tattoo artist. He was so well camouflaged we didn’t even realize that it was him at first!

Anyway, John came to us with a very interesting piece of information the other day. John wrote, “I’m not sure if you’ve seen it or if it’s been brought to your attention, but Mattel’s new “Jacob Black” doll has his Quileute tribal tattoo painted UPSIDE DOWN on his arm. I noticed it when the first prototype pictures were being posted on the internet, and I didn’t call Mattel because I figured that EVERYTHING would change on the actual consumer model. WRONG! I picked up two dolls for the collection yesterday and I was a bit miffed. I can see the oversight…the tattoo is very complex and when your dealing with a replica that’s 1/4” scale…blah blah. So…. I called Mattel this morning. I talked to a lovely gal named Linda who took all of my information. I told her how important this little detail is to the fans and she’s getting the query to the “engineers” immediately. So…feel free to post this information so everyone can run out and buy this initial run of Jacob dolls…it was a limited supply run and now with this error they might be little investments for the future!!!”

So far Mattel hasn’t called back. it will be interesting to see it they fix this in the next run, as John says the “flawed dolls” could be a collectible.

Pretty intereseing tidbit for toy collector's.

Taylor is Legal but still playing like a kid

I don't think Taylor should be playing with toys and games, he should be here watching the Olympics Games!


TwiFans posted:

Taylor Lautner showed up and had some fun at the New York Toy Fair. Hasbro invited Taylor to their booth.

Taylor will be playing in Hasbro's Stretch Armstrong. Lautner will star in Stretch Armstrong, based on the action figure launched in the 1970s. Brian Grazer will produce alongside Hasbro president and CEO Brian Goldner and colleague Bennet Schneir.
Steve Oedekerk is writing the screenplay.

“In the past two years, Taylor has emerged as a real star at the global box office,” Universal co-chairman Donna Langley said. “He brings the
perfect balance of energy and athleticism to the role of an unlikely
super hero with a fantastic super power.”

The film has been scheduled for a 2012 release.

I guess this means there will be more Taylor Lautner dolls to play with.

PS these are the 1st good pictures of the 18 year old.

The company gave MTV News a special preview of their new products and a taste of what (and who's) in store, so be sure to watch the video below for the sneak peek of your next Christmas list.

New Vampire Toys NSFW


Here is an email I got today with this photo. Please note the links included in this email are NSFW so do not click them from a shared cpmputer or at work.

Here is the email:

I know some of you out there have scratches on your peen from getting down with a pair of fake vampire teeth while thinking of Viking Eric from True Blood! You know who are you (Tommy Girl). Well, you can put those vampire teeth away, because here's something you can safely wrap around your wang. It's the Count Cockula, and the only thing it will hurt is your dignity!


For those of you who prefer your beejes without teeth, let the description really sell it to you:

Polish up your stake and drive it into this soft, vampire mouth for an orgasm that will wake the living dead. Packing the same punch as the original Fleshjacks but housed in a compact soda can and featuring the exclusive Vampire Fang inner canal texture not found on any other Fleshjack product.


And if you're really feeling kinky/lonely, you can use the Count Cockula with the Twidildo! It will be like having a threesome with RPattz and Vampire Beeehl. You won't need lube since your tears of self-pity will get the Count Cockula nice and wet!

With all that being said, I'd hit it. I'm joking (no, I'm not).

Too hilarious.....

More Twilight Character Action Figures

I know someone who will be buying these - no not me - but if I got them for my birthday I wouldn't complain ;)

NewMoonMovie says:

The New Moon action figures have arrived, and are now showing up at retailers. Now you can have your own personal New Moon heroes! Check out the randomly priced selection–if price equals rarity, Alice is the one everyone is after:

Jacob Black
Alice Cullen
Bella Swan
Edward Cullen
Discounted four pack of the whole set

I really need to see Bella in person. She’s looking a bit manly, is she not?


I have to say the Bella doll from Twilight has a man-jaw.... weird!
