2009 SDCC Comic Con Exclusive: Transformers Soundwave
When I first found out that Hasbro was going to release Soundwave as an exclusive I was like, "oh hellz yes!". Soundwave was one of the coolest original transformers.

Mighty Muggs 2009 SDCC Comic Con Wolverine Logan Exclusive
Last year Hasbro sold the metallic Iron Man Mighty Mugg and it was a huge hit among Mighty Muggs and Iron Man fans.

One more week until the San Diego Comic Con! I was one of those boys that collected G.I.Joes when I was a kid even though my favorite grade school teacher once called them "dolls".
