They say.............

........a picture can be worth a thousand words.....

What does this picture say to you.?

I was watching the SS commercial earlier as it pops up on You Tube. It's a pretty quick commercial and runs through several video moments and picture moments at a fairly quick pace.... I could not help but to notice this picture. I never noticed it before today and when I froze my You Tube to catch it, it caught me off guard.

My first thought was that I wasn't so sure that it was meant to be there but then the commercial came on again and I realized that it was meant to be there.

Any thoughts on this? Is this commercial new.?

Strange. It popped up for me as I was watching a Comic Con video.

Just trying to get an idea for their marketing campaign…, having an infant playing with a hulk buster. Are these meant to be toys?

They probably are trying more to show you how large some of these statues can be at times, but yeah looks more like they are saying- “hey get one of these for your 2 year old to play around with, who cares if it cost you a months rent” lol
Would love to see the aftermath of this picture, after the little kid knocks it over once or twice.

If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back?

Surely they're just pics sent in from collectors who are showing off their pieces

Years past, but it is all the same... lol Human Comedy...

People would like to believe what they do for a living and what they are into are respectable and important. When there were no super hero statues and Hot Toys, there were only 3.5'' and 6'' action figures to collect.

People were like ''action figures are toys'', especially moms. And action figure collector nerd were like ''Mom ! don't call them toys, they are action figures, they are not for kids'' lol

And there was a minorty among those nerds who didn't have gigantic egos would say ''yeah, i am into F....ing toys'' lol

I never forget that time when i said to a girl ''I have a Star Wars collection''. She just lost it, started to laugh in disbelief that just how lame it is. lol
