I've gotta go with that god-awful lamp...although the "inspired by" music CD is pretty blah too. Oh and that blasted "grabber" arm! I swear to God even if the store I go to has *no* WALL-E merchandise, they always have 50 of those arms! Whoever came up with that "toy" needs to be fired quick.

...Or shot. Eh.. I think that the malfunction gang pack is getting annoying, granted, I have all the figures I want (Except U-Repair), but if I look, and see if I want them, I'll always see those bots, they annoy me, they are a complete waste of plastic, and those barely 2 inch toys, they 7$ ones, I wish them burned!

Yeah, the malfunction gang pack is definitely pretty bad too. They'd be great if I could find some WALL-E and EVE figures that size, but who wants a pack of just side characters? I think we're seeing a pattern, though, the crap toys that no one wants are the ones that are always in stock. ;D

There's one really ugly plushie of WALL-E that I don't particularly like.

Yeah, that arm thing. I spent a long time trying to figure out what the point of it was . . . until I realized there was no point.

Best I can figure for the arm thing is it can be used as a back-scratcher. :/ I thought they were shovels at first.

I seem to remember reading that you use the arm to reach things that are high up. I've seen similar "As seen on TV" products.

Oh...I guess it might appeal to the kiddies then, since being short is the bane of their existence according to old sitcoms. ;D What a silly product, though.
Not quite as ugly as the lamp, though. Heh.

I haven't seen this lamp. Could you possibly put a picture up?

Yeah, that material. Seems like something you'd see in a 1970's living room with shag carpeting. Looking at it again it may be designed for more of the "little girl/boy's room" aesthetic, though.

Honestly, I was expecting much worse from the way you all were talking about it. ;D
Where does the light go, exactly?
