officially the greatest 1:6 toy of all time

Albert Einstein, originally uploaded by Craig Chen.

Those of you that know me are familiar with how much I love well-done 1:6 figures.

This upcoming Albert Einsteain from Hong Kong toymaker How2Work offically WINS. I can't wait to have him lay the smackdown on 1:6 Darth Vader and 1:6 George Bush!

There's a much beter photo of Al here.

How2Work's V.I. Lenin is pretty awesome, too... now where's my 1:6 Kurt Gödel?

mccain's VP

I understand that there are countless Monty Python fans around the U.S., but I am very disappointed in John McCain's choice as a Vice Presidential candidate.

I mean, Michael Palin isn't even an American!

Edit: On the bright side, Palin looks GREAT in drag, much better than Joe Biden would, and I suppose McCain deserves credit for trying to appeal to the comedic transvestite set, though I would have gone with Izzard on this count. Also Palin is an accomplished author.

Further edit: I found a photo.
