frustrated with comic geeks!!!

Ok, so there is a line of Fisher Price toys out, the DC SuperFriends- these chunky, cute action figures for little toddlers. They also have a Marvel version, Spiderman and Friends, but my son prefers DC characters (hey, I let him make up his own mind, even if he does end up having less-than-satisfactory taste!!) So, like the good geek that I am, I check out ebay for these toys, because they are few and far between in the stores.

Yeah, wanna know why? Because ultra-geeks that live in their mother's basements and collect ANY toy based on ANY comic character, even if it is a PRESCHOOL toy- well, they buy them all up and keep them in their packaging, sitting on their geek shelves collecting dust. HELLO!!

Look, I have a 3 year old and a 1 year old. They both enjoy superheroes. My 1 year old already roars and smashes his fist like the Hulk. I'm so proud. But I can't be spending $40.00 on a VHTF MOC Hawkman figure! That's "veryhardtofind mintoncard" for you non-geeks out there. Seriously though. You are insane, geeks of the world. Just so you know.
