The Scariest Picture on the Internet

  The other day I became obsessed with Creepypastas. If you don't know what a Creepypasta is I'll explain.
 A creepypasta is an urban legend or a paranormal story that is made up and posted on an imageboard or an internet forum, and is meant to scare the person. Some of these creepypastas include story's such as lost episodes, that cause people to commit suicide or die, such as in the fashion of the movie The Ring. These stories are quite addictive and are best read at nighttime so you get that creepy feeling of the chill down your spine, and the feeling that you are being watched. I will now share with you a creepypasta that is completely false. This one is called The Scariest Picture on the Internet.

R

  The story is this, in Japan shortly before a teenage girl comitted suicide, she drew this picture, scanned it and posted it online. In korea this story broke out and it spread like wildfire. There are various posts around in korean forums that say that the viewer gets drawn to the girls blue eyes, they say they can detect a hint of wraith and sadness within the eyes. Maybe the girl had died with so much sadness and anger that her spirit haunts the image, or maybe the image provoke sadness, similar to the song 'Gloomy Sunday'.
The freaky bit is this, they say it is hard for a person to stare into the girls eyes for longer than 5 minutes, there are reports that some people have taken their own lives after doing so. People say the picture changes, as you view it there is a hint of a growing taunting smirk appearing on the girls lips or a dark ring grows around the girl or her eyes.
  Now I will debunk how this creepypasta is fake. The story says that the girl who drew this picture of herself was Japanese. Take a good look at that picture. You can clearly see that she is NOT Japanese. She is in fact more Caucasian looking than Japanese. This picture is a CGI drawing by a man by the name of Robert Chang titled "Melancholic Princess" http://www.epilogue.net/cgi/database/art/view.pl?id=9270 That is where the picture originates, However I don't know where the suicide story comes from.
IMPORTANT UPDATE!!!!!!

This is what happens when you open the Ark of the Covenant.

You think that is the scariest picture on the internet? Well prepare to go back to 2005. Remember the Many Faces of Paula Oliveria? She's the girl who has that scary facial expression. Look to the right of your screen feast your eyes upon that.

ToyWiz.com Is A Rip Off

  I collect action figures, and Hot Wheels cars, and Lego. Whenever I am shopping online for WWE action figures I tend to shop around the internet before I make my decision. There is one website however, that is insane for their prices. Any guesses to which website it is? If you guessed ToyWiz.com, then you get the good noodle star. If you guessed some other site, you don't get the good noodle star.
  For instance, when I started collecting WWE figures earlier this year, I found Kelly Kelly at Kohls for I believe $14 or $15. It was somewhere in that price range. She also was the second Diva figure that I bought. She is an ultra rare figure. Anyway, I checked ToyWiz to see what their price was for her. It was $64.99, not including shipping. WTF? $64.99 for a Diva figure are you kidding me? That price was a couple of months ago. It has since gone up to $79.99. In my opinion ToyWiz is nothing more than a scalper site if you ask me. I never buy anything from there because of their prices.
  Back in 2006, when the movie Cars came out, ToyWiz was the place to go online to get these cars, in regarding selection. If you couldn't find it in stores, you had a better chance of getting it there. I remember looking at the cars to see what they were charging for a single car when I was in my junior year of high school. ToyWiz also sells custom painted Cars diecast. I still wouldn't buy them.
  This brings me to the next part of my rant, the Jakks-Pacific foam Pokeballs. Now these foam Pokeballs are made out of foam, and they are painted like Pokeballs from the Pokemon games, such as the Ultra Ball and the Master Ball. I will add that they don't open up. I collect the Johto Edition Pokeballs from the Gold&Silver and Crystal games. These foam Pokeballs should not retail for over $3. Here's a prime example of ToyWiz being a scalper site again. Take the Heavy Ball, a Pokeball from the Johto edition series, ToyWiz wants $19.99 not including shipping. That is a $18 markup for crying out loud! Do you see what is wrong here?
  This brings me to my final complaint with ToyWiz's prices, Lego. I have the Lego Batcave. I got it when it first came out. Anway ToyWiz wants $999.99 for it. According to ToyWiz, they just sold the last one and they are trying to restock it. If I am not mistaken this set cost $90 back in 2006. I know Lego Batman didn't last very long so it's a popular item. Why did they have to charge almost 100% markup? I don't care because I already own it. Is it really necessary to charge $999.99 for a 5 year old Lego set? Ethically the answer is no. I hate scalpers. I really do. I name another Lego example on ToyWiz, another Batman set,  Batman's Buggy: Escape of Mr. Freeze for $324.99. That set back in 2008 cost $10. I am not going to bitch anymore on Lego prices on ToyWiz.
  So if you like scalper websites, ToyWiz is your perfect match. The prices are so ridiculous, and out of control, that I'm surprised that they don't go out of business because of their high prices. I swear that I will never buy from this site ever. I really do promise that. I am a smart collector, and a smart collector knows where to buy things from. So if you are looking for action figures or toys in general, STAY AWAY from ToyWiz.com.

Top 5 Best Batman Action Figures

Unlike my previous posts about the worst Batman action figures, I decided today I would post about the top 10 best Batman Action Figures.

Combat Belt Batman

1. Combat Belt Batman. Now Combat Belt Batman was the first Batman figure released for the Batman The Animated Series toy line. As you probably guessed this Batman's attire is based on the one he wears in the TV Show. It is probably the few Batman the Animated Series you will ever need. Combat Belt Batman came with a snap on utility belt, with handcuffs, a spring launched grappling hook, and a Batarang.

Robin

 

2. Robin from Batman The Animated Series. This Robin figure is probably the only Robin you'll ever need. As with Combat Belt Batman, Robin appears in the way he does in the TV show. Unlike Combat Belt Batman, Robin comes with a glider. This robin figure has been released a couple of times with the same accessory as a repaint. Still a good figure in my opinion.

Power Cape Batman

3. Power Cape Batman. Power Cape Batman is another true to the series painted figure and is the most accurate of them all. Power Cape Batman is from the Batman Beyond line. Power Cape Batman is painted black unlike the others that are clear, and has two cloth wings that are attached to his back and clip on his wrists, he also comes with clip on jets that go on his legs. I highly recommend it.

Detective Batman

4. Detective Batman. Detective Batman is another true to the series figures. This Batman figure is from The New Batman Adventures series when the show was redesigned. Unlike previous Batman figures, this one had wider shoulders and had a rubber cape that went over his neck. Still a great figure that I highly recommend. 

Retro Batman

5. Retro Batman. Retro Batman is from Batman Mask of The Phantasm. This figure also appears in the Animated Series in a couple episodes in flashback form. Unlike other Batman the Animated Series Figures, Retro Batman, has taller points on his cowl an older bat logo on his chest, no spikes on his gauntlets, and a utility belt with pockets, kind of like a WWII GI ammo belt. This is another figure that you must own.

More Reasons Why UPS Mail Innovations Is Ineffective

  When I checked the status of the tracking info for my WWE Series 12 Alberto Del Rio figure, I noticed that It moved from Groveport Ohio to Logan Township NJ. I live in Hazleton Pennsylvania, and my package went from Ohio to New Jersey. This is messed up big time. Last time I checked, Pennsylvania is between New Jersey and Ohio. So sending this package to Logan Township New Jersey is pointless. Here is the distance between Groveport Ohio and Hazleton Pennsylvania 454 miles, equivalent to an 8 hour and 4 minute drive. Now from Groveport Ohio to Logan Township New Jersey is 506 miles and is equivalent to a 9 hour and 6 minute drive. UPS Mail Innovations give your package the complete run around. Now from Logan Township New Jersey to Hazleton Pennsylvania is 107 miles or a 2 hour and 8 minute drive. Believe me this is really a screwed up logistics system. Why in the Hell can't UPS deliver a freaking package to the state it is going to without taking it to another state that it doesn't belong in? Does a package being sent from Ohio to Pennsylvania have to be sent to a sorting facility in New Jersey? No it does not. I don't think that UPS doesn't give a fuck about how ineffective their UPS Mail Innovations is. They don't belong in the mail prepping business in the first place. If UPS loves logistics so much why won't they fix this damn UPS Mail Innovations. FedEx Smartpost is better than this shitty service called UPS Mail Innovations.

The Chevron Cars Wendy Wagon Review.

  I recently bought The Chevron Cars Wendy Wagon on Amazon.com because there aren't any Chevron gas stations in Pennsylvania. Wendy Wagon was the second Chevron Car that was released in a series. She was originally released in 1997 along with Sam Sedan and Tony Turbo.  Also in 1997 Wendy Wagon was in a Chevron with Techron commercial done in Claymation by Aardman Animations. Now Wendy Wagon is not my first Chevron Car that I own. My first one is Brent Blizzard. I bought him on a trip to Arizona back in November of 2006 when I went to visit my Brother and his family.

Wendy Wagon and her box.

  Now Wendy Wagon is well, a green station wagon, as her last name implies. Wendy Wagon has a black roof rack, and black side view mirrors that actually work. Wendy's wheels are a silver metallic color, with real rubber tires. Now to compare Wendy Wagon with Brent Blizzard, Brent has plastic wheels and tires. Like all Chevron Cars, their rear license plate says Techron. Wendy has green eyes with blue eyelids. Her eye movement is her eyes blink when you push the car down and push her. Wendy's two front doors open also. Her hood also opens up just like she does in the commercial when she shows off her engine when talking about Techron.
  The box art for Wendy Wagon is just like her commercial. On one side of the box, she is parked next to the gates of a school with a soccer ball in front of her, the one that bounced off of her in the commercial and you see the child peeking up over the schoolyard wall whose soccer ball hit Wendy. The front of the box is a cropped picture of the sides. Overall this is a very cool toy especially if you are a station wagon enthusiast like myself. For an adult collector this toy may seem babyish to other adults.  If you are contemplating buying her don't let the babyish factor scare you, they make great conversation pieces.

Oh No Not UPS Mail Innovations Again

  On Saturday I ordered WWE Basic series 12 Alberto Del Rio from Toys R Us.com and my package is being sent through that damn UPS Mail Innovations again. I blogged about this horrendous service that UPS offers. I'll go through explaining this process again for those of you who don't know. UPS receives the package, and prepares it to be delivered through the USPS. Now the tracking information is shittier than the USPS' Track and Confirm where if your lucky enough, your package might get a tracking update once in a while.
  What annoys me is that for the $5.28 I paid to have the figure shipped could have went to UPS to deliver the package instead of their Mail Innovations crap. Or Better yet they could of shipped it USPS for the amount of money. UPS Mail Innovations Sucks big time. I think that when you choose to have something shipped that they should give you options at least to what shipping service you want so you don't get stuck with this so called UPS Mail Innovations.
