Wouldn't that work better for the Druid who... actually turns into a bear?
No, that's the joke. Grizzly-One and Barbearian were two different names thrown around for the preproduction Polar Claw, see.

People spend so much time worrying about whether a figure is "mint" or not that they never stop to consider other flavours.

-would probably change Sherman's name if, (for some reason), a move to the south was needed.
At least your cat isn't likely to burn Atlanta down. :evil:

Eh, ancient history. Though you're right, some older folks down here would likely not appreciate the name.

My family always had a lot of dogs while I was growing up. Cocker Spaniels named Velvet, Rusty and Candy, a collie named Lassie (ok, not very original there), an adopted mutt named Max, and an adopted German Shepherd mix named Moose. We lived out in the country, and the last two came around begging for food and we took pity on them. I'd love to have a dog now, but we can't really afford one at the moment. It'll happen one of these days. I'm not a fan of cats, but I love dogs. Great pets, very affectionate and enjoyable to have around.

I totally forgot about that. Seriously, just whizzed right by me. That's certainly more clever than Kratos.

I just sent a PM to Trekkie....before seeing Anderson's post.

Cats can also be affectionate. it just takes a bit more patience.

Dom
-can see the appeal of a dog though.

TF:A Megatron - half off thanks to TRU extending doorbusters all day. Decent figure, bigger than most leader Megs and much more cohesive. Totally cheats in simplistic transformation, but a few clever bits. Very nifty and nice to have a Megs as tall as an Autobot Leader for once (I have Ultra Magnus to compare).
Hah, didn't I tell you you'd like Super Megs when we were doing the ol' email back-and-forth before the boards? :D
