THE CREATOR OF ‘ADVENTURE TIME' WAS TOTALLY SORT OF IN A BOY BAND AND YOU NEED TO HEAR THIS
I recently picked up Adventure Time Season 4 on Blu-ray and one of the bonus features is a cool little behind-the-scenes look at the music behind the show. The best part of all is this bit where the show’s creator, Pendleton Ward, talks about a boy band that he was in called Bloody Burbanks with some of AT’s producers. He begins belting out a sweet pop tune which then gets a funky beat dropped on it and it’s nothing short of mesmerizing.
The actual song goes on longer in the bonus features than it does in the clip embedded above. I’d recommend scooping the DVD or Blu-Ray just for this alone, but there’s also some ballin’ commentary for any aspiring artists/animators/cartoon fans to dig on.
Oh, and if you’re feeling up to it, you should also read my really awkward interview with Pendleton Ward here. Whenever I think about it, I want to draw a picture of him as a cute little pea.

TakaraTomy Legends LG-08 Swerve with Phaser In-Hand Photos - My First Blaster Mini-Con!
__scaled_600.jpg)
The Higekuma Toy Blog has posted an extensive gallery of photos of the first half of Legends LG-08, Swerve and Phaser! A recolor of Generations Legends-class Swerve's US Mini-Con Flanker, Phaser looks at first glance to be in a more traditional space-shuttle white, but there was a second reason for that: Phaser's gun mode has been painted to look as much as possible like My First Blaster, the remedial training gun given to Swerve in the pages of More Than Meets The Eye! Keep reading for a sampling of photos and a link to the Higekuma Toy Blog so you can see them all!

Rescue Bots Rescan Salvage Found At US Retail
__scaled_600.jpg)
When the previously-unknown Rescue Bots Blurr arrived at Hong Kong retail along with Salvage's presumed wavemate Optimus Prime, there was some concern that the garbage truck bot might have been delayed or cancelled. This doesn't seem to be the case, as Salvage has now been found as US retail by ShinHadouConvoy of the 2005 forums! Whether all three figures are in the same wave or not remains to be seen, but it seems likely at first glance. Keep reading to see the photo, and we'll have more info on this spotty wave as we get it!

Want to buy a PINK Batman? Check out this DCC poll
DC Collectibles recently ran a poll which attracted a little buzz since it teased that a "Rainbow Batman Figure Set" could be released. The poll itself consists of several previously shown unproduced figures and asks fans which collectible(s) that they would most like to see produced.
Selections included a Rainbow-colored Batman set (which appeared at some conventions; for details on WHY Batman is wearing these outfits, CNET has a breakdown of the 1950s Batman comic where the concept appeared), an Ame-Comi Mary Marvel, 3.75-inch "New 52" figures, a Black Manta bust, and some DC Universe Online action figures (yes, that game apparently still exists).
While Tomopop is notorious for its criticisms of the Ame-Comi line (a few departed editors had serious "hate-ons" for the series), I was more than a little disappointed to see that Mary Marvel didn't receive greater fan appreciation. It's a seriously neat design and I hate to see it just fall by the wayside like this.
The poll's apparent winner is the 3.75-inch New 52 figures which consist of John Constantine (who recently received a surprisingly entertaining show), Batman, a S.C. Sinestro, Captain Cold, and the demon Etrigan. I'm not sure whether I expected more or less support for the 3.75-inch line, although when DCC started producing figures in the 3.75-inch scale it seemed like a pretty big deal.
The fact that these five didn't get produced might have to do with possible lackluster sales for the much-covered 3.75-inch Injustice: Gods Among Us 2-packs (I believe that we eventually saw six or seven such 2-packs). If these figures do get made, I'm guessing that it may be as a 5-pack due to cost issues. I would be tempted to try to pick up either Constantine and/or Etrigan loose if these were to be released.
Rainbow Batman placed a close second in the poll and, as such, I wouldn't be surprised if it someday was released as well. I will say that I certainly like the zaniness of it although, as far as sets go, it's probably not something I'd ever buy.
At any rate, keep in mind that the poll may ultimately remain meaningless since this isn't guaranteed content. However, I would assume that if one of the options looked viable on DCC's end and absolutely blew the other choices out of the water then it might be a sure bet... but that didn't really happen here since the two top picks are basically tied. (And poor Mary Marvel? She placed fourth.)
