Very exciting news from our friends at McFarlane: Todd McFarlane has announced a new variation program called the McFarlane Collector Level. McFarlane reports the following: “These new Collector Level figures will have tiers of production quantities: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Premier, All-Star and MVP. Depending upon the level and the production level and the production run, the highest we will produce of any one Collector Level figure is 2,000 and this number will go all the way down to our scarcest level (MVP) which we’ll produce somewhere between 1 and 50 of that figure.”
Before I get into the following rant about Bill Belichick's coaching blunder in the Sunday night showdown in Indianapolis, I will say that I think the Patriots' veteran coach is one of the best in the business and I would welcome him taking over the reigns of my favorite team any day of the week. But, and this is a big but, he took a calculated risk and it was the wrong move given the circumstances and he cost his team a victory. Don't let any of the blow-hard TV analysts or newspaper writers tell you any differently either because some Belichick supporters claim it was the right move no matter the outcome. I beg to differ.
