Cool Swag

GI Joe Mighty Muggs

I was first introduced to these cutesy little replicas of my favorite comic book and movie characters by our very own Pop Newmo. He's got quite the collection at his abode, and, I must say, I am a little jealous. The one on display here is none other than that nefarious ne'er-do-well Destro from GI Joe. He can be found at Big Bad Toy Store, or pretty much anywhere that toys are sold.

In addition to GI Joe, there are Transformers, Marvel Comics, and Star Wars Mighty Muggs that can be picked up at your local toy store as well. These things are really good additions to any collection, though I'm not sure how much any kid would ever want to play with them.

Some of the characters that are harder to find can run you $18-$25 and can probably only be found at online retailers. Most of them will cost you from $10-$12 at your local Target or Wal-Mart or wherever it is that you go when you want to purchase frivolous stuff. But, hey, you know you want that Destro.

I want all the Joes and Yoda. Definitely. I noticed that the Transformers ones were on clearance at Target the other day...they were like 7 bucks a pop.

Pop Newmo must have a pretty kick ass wife who helps stock his collection. Yep...I bet she's pretty freaking awesome.
