Toys R Us Kid II: Fiscal Boogaloo
From Youtube videos I’m finding out that many people who grew up middle class have no idea what a ‘dollar store’ is. They seem to think that just because a store has the word ‘dollar’ in their name that makes them a ‘dollar store’. I see suggested videos all the time titled something like : “I bought this crazy stereo at the dollar store!” No, you bought it at Family Dollar, where some things cost more than the Wal-Mart down the street.
True ‘dollar stores’ are places where, guess what, everything costs $1! Fewer and fewer exist in this day and age, one of the few chains remaining is Dollar Tree. (Even though they are starting to raise prices!) Most of the things you get at a place like this are either off-brand products, name brand products in smaller form or something they were just able to get a crazy low bulk price on. (Sometimes they up-sell though. Those canned vegetables you’re paying $1 for usually costs 85 cents at the super market.)
This is why it surprised me when all of a sudden I saw toy collecting videos purporting to be about ‘dollar store’ figures pop up in my suggested videos. And these weren’t just random videos, they were videos by collectors I had watched videos from to get reviews of those Masterpiece Transformers figures I talked about last time. Those are figures that sell for hundreds of dollars. So what is this ‘dollar store’ thing about? This is where I was introduced to…
This is indeed a toy line sold exclusively at Dollar Tree. Most of the toys they have there are like all the other products, either cheap knock-offs, name brand toys they got a deal on or sell for more than you’d actually pay other places. But this toy line is a complete in-house brand created and sold by Dollar Tree, and the figures aren’t that bad from the looks of it.
In the year 2050, a large asteroid collided with our moon. Among the debris, we discovered a hibernating alien mothership. Now, the Kharn are awake and they want to plunder our precious natural resources. So, we recruited teams of special operatives to defend Earth from their alien threat.
First you have the good guys, Alpha Team 1
The figures don’t look that bad! They’re about the size of GI Joes (not those dolls you old guys played with, but the smaller ones we’ve had in more civilized times since the 80s) and come with similar style packaging with little bios on them. Then there are the bad guys…
Hey, those look kind of neat! Weird generic alien monsters FTW! They are a barely more substantial toy than Happy Meal toys, but you don’t have to feed your kid a Happy Meal. (Which have sucked since they started putting apples in them!) The point that these Youtube Toy collectors (who collect toys that cost hundreds of dollars) have made is, you can buy them all! There is no secondary market pumping the price. They are all readily available on store shelves! No artificial scarcity! You can have the whole collection, remember they are $1 (or $1.25 going forward). You can make those few generic aliens into a massive army for less than it costs to buy most other toys these days.
But the craziest part? They made a fucking cartoon! Just like the big toy lines! But these are toys exclusively for Dollar Tree! And I have to admit, the cartoon is better than some I’ve been forced to sit through with my nieces and nephews. (It kind of reminds me of the Halo based fan cartoon Red VS Blue in some ways)

Something must be wrong with looking at the site on my phone. It’s showing Bro as the first comment.
There’s a first for everything.
Just gonna say…if I ran the Zoom it would be on time. At least Tonio’s tardiness allows me to enjoy the fine writings of our members.
Kharn? Like “The Betrayer”?

Update for those who asked. My mom came out of surgery and seems to be doing well.
Thanks to everyone for their thoughts, prayers, and well wishes.
???
Glad to hear some good news.
Nice for a change, good news, that is.
Good to hear.
That is great CP!
O Frabjous Day! ?
Glad to hear it! I was hoping for a good update today.
??
Yes!!! Now for a quick recovery!
Thanks. I hope so too. Although, the highly reputable surgeon, who also seemed liked a very nice guy, said that she’ll likely require weeks of inpatient physical therapy. I don’t like the sound of that, her not being at home, but we’ll see what happens. One day at a time, I guess.
Dad was in for 23 days, and probably would have been in longer if the insurance paid full freight.
But he’s getting around surprisingly well with his walker.
Good to hear, Ted’s’. I’m confident your Dad views it as the longest 23 days of his life. Soon he’ll toss away the walker. Once he re- learns to walk you’ll never keep him at home.
She really should go for the physical therapy.
Had a family member with a brain tumor, and she was given about 6 months to live. She went in for surgery, and just kind of gave up on PT, thinking she was going to die any day now and PT was a hassle.
For 4 years she had a brain tumor that was going to kill her any day now. She wasn’t paralyzed, her legs still kind of sort of worked, they just needed exercise. So she ended up missing out on seeing her grandkids growing up because she couldn’t get out of bed.
I’m glad she did well. Definitely do PT.
Excellent.
Give her a smooch from us.
Late to the news but very glad to hear it!
Late to the party, but YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!!!!
hooray!

“Steel” looks like “A Train” from The Boys.
A bit huh
I have a heck of a time keeping Family Dollar and Dollar General straight. We have plenty of both nearby, with a Family Dollar within an easy walk. But I think that location has started closing on weekdays at 5:00 p.m., which is annoying for a first-shift onsite (across town) worker. ?
Alien spider monsters have potential. Interesting they have their own line.
@CPRM: Do you by chance have a G.I. Joe article in the works? I’m digging your toy articles. Hope you have more in the future.
Micronauts?
One toy I liked that didn’t have a cartoon was Stompers. Little 4X4 vehicles. I wonder what ever happened to mine…
Oh those were fun!
I remember Stompers!
I just looked them up on eBay…wow. I really need to find mine.
Marvel did a Micronauts comic book that was surprisingly good for, IIRC, it’s first three years.
Damn, this sucks on a phone. How do you phone people do this all day?
/Get off my lawn
Our orphans are doing it…
I had to phone it in from a hospital bed a couple years ago. Yeah, it’s painful. I can’t do it.
When I have to, it’s because I have no choice.
Phones are not a good form factor for web browsing.
I run every Thursday via phone. Occasionally I write the post via phone, due to travel obligations. That’s tough.
I’ve seen you mention that. I can’t imagine. I’m sure I’d give up in frustration.
Macanudo + Dalmore + nice summer day = priceless
Throw in a blow job and you might have something there.
The lilacs are in bloom here. They were lovely walking my neighborhood loop, …until we got the the house pumping out its septic system. The lilacs were overpowered.
Yeah, the yard has smelled fantastic the last week or so. We have lots of lilacs and you’ll just get these random, pleasant feelings of calm when you catch a whiff of them.
One little bush behind the cabin in blossom. I stole that bush from my mother’s back yard about 35 years ago. This is the first year that the deer didn’t eat it back to the point of no flowers.
I love lilacs. There is one bush near me where I get that feeling when I walk past.
Is it over 50 degrees?
77!
Well, it was. 61 right now. Good sleeping weather.
Well hell, Glibs has obviously been completely compromised by the Bee! Run for your lives.
I’d really like to know who the crossover is. Just for my personal enjoyment. Super promise to keep it secret, yo.
Me too.
Swiss claims to know…
But telling you would violate attorney-client privilege.
It is Swiss!
The family friendly joke has a parallel construction off of recent groomer events, so this is one of the weaker arguments of Glibbee crossover.
I managed to restrain myself when shopping at the butchers and avoided the instinct to save the nice steak for later. These were the contibuting factors to food wastage in previous weeks. After all, what’s the point of ‘saving’ it when that just results in it going bad?
More concise – I had a nice steak for dinner.
If you didn’t dry brine it for at least 24 hours, it could have been nicer.

That story is a bunch of fear mongering bullshit. They lump commercial and backyard flocks together to get the scary numbers, and yet focus on backyard. The article has so many stolen bases and strawmen it could be used to teach a class on how not to write an article.
https://archive.ph/FGyvT/cad4ef1e0d117902bc1c83f4d46585d9880d333e.webp
That……..That has a lot of nuance.
Today was payday and no word or money from the boss…It’s time to start looking for a new job…
Dammit.
Without a doubt. Good luck, man.
Honestly, this is fucking ridiculous. At the very least I could have put in around thirty hours of work around the rain between Monday and Friday and I got in…zero. My boss allegedly has nine jobs lined up yet isn’t keen to get them done… I’m almost positive he took the deposits for those jobs, paid off his past due bills and now can’t cover payroll. At this point I could rub one out in the sour cream at the nearest Taco Bell
every shift and have a better standard of living.
If your boss isn’t covering payroll, bail. You’ll end up paying to work for him.
Oh brother let me tell you…
I’m an hourly employee and there’s been a few times within the last year were I didn’t meet my own expectations for when I thought a job should have been completed. So out of a sense of guilt and honor I’ve eaten over twenty hours of labor to get us back on track. Now I’m over thirty hours in the hole.
A week’s paid vacation? Ha! I’ve worked nearly that much this year free of charge. Getting paid to sit on ass is a completely alien concept at this point.
I’ve been psuedo-salaried for years now and I still find PTO to be an alien concept. (Doesn’t mean I won’t take it, just means it makes no sense to me)
PTO is what my coworkers get because when I rejoined this company I landed at the bottom of the ladder. I’ve covered for multiple two-week vacations already this year. *grumble*
Start working for yourself dude, It’s a workers market right now, everyone wants shit done and no one wants to work. I know (or think) you have some concerns about being ‘off the grid’ for a long time and wanting to stay under the radar but fuck that, you gotta live and honestly you’d be surprised how many people are in that boat. You have safety in numbers in a way as long as you haven’t been hiding hundreds of thousand sin income over the years they aren’t gonna fuck you.
I lost my car earlier this year so at this point I’m basically fucked until I get a new one. The Kansas City Metro Area is very driver oriented. Not having a functional automobile is a real kick in the nuts. I need to buy a car/truck… which is difficult to do when you can barely pay your rent and utilities. I’m mean for fuck’s sake, very recently I had to come begging to you all for money just to pay my utilities. It’s fucking pathetic. Either way, I can’t do this anymore. At least for the short term I need to find whatever work I can find within a few miles walking distance from my apartment. Once I/if ever can get my head above water and save up a few grand I’ll give the idea of being my own boss consideration.
no one wants to work
Woody Allen said something like 80% of life is just showing up; it’s pushing 95% now at our shop
You’ve mentioned before some issues with getting a “regular” job. I think you must get that all cleared up. You can’t keep on like this. People who like to pay under the table often do so because they have their own issues. You need to break free from that cycle.
‘You’ve mentioned before some issues with getting a “regular” job. I think you must get that all cleared up.’
This requires money. Money I’m not earning right now. Honestly, fucking homeless people have more material possessions than I do at this point. Cleaning up my legal status is a pipe dream in the immediate future.
I’m so fucked.
Wasn’t that true weeks ago? Seriously?
Yep. Promises, Promises.
And I’m the fool/idiot who didn’t trust his gut and make a move earlier.
To be clear, I’m not fishing for sympathy here. Almost every single problem I currently have in life is my own damn fault. Even to some degree this one. I’ve spent the last twenty-six years in the work force and should recognize a sinking ship when I’m on one. But I got lazy, complacent and convinced myself that things would turn around. Largely because the thought of taking a risk gave me massive anxiety (yes, I’m an asshole.)
I’m basically just venting/having a tantrum because nobody else really gives a shit…sorry.
You made me…
I love that song.

Holy shit I don’t think I’ve hear that for (thinks hard) 35 years?
Enough of that bullshit. You have people here that give a lot of shits…hundreds of dollars in a few hours kind of shits. It sucks you don’t have an in-person support group, but you have us. And you’re not an asshole (any more than the rest of us) and you’re not a loser. Quit feeling sorry for yourself and let’s get some shit figured out. Who’s with me?! Aaaahhhhh!!!!!
By nobody else, I meant aside from you all. 😉
And to be clear; I do indeed hate but have never felt sorry for myself. In fact the self hatred is largely due to the fact that I cut myself no slack. Feeling sorry for yourself implies that the world is against you and life is unfair or some such emo bullshit. Of course it is. Deal with it. I’m perfectly aware that No Lives Matter: The Universe Doesn’t Give A Shit About You.
I dunno. I guess I navel-gaze about my personal issues here to express a sense of shame to somebody for being such an overgrown child. You’re my little band of priests and therapists who allow me to confess and analyze my sins.
Sorry if this came off as confrontational. Not my intent.
Not confrontational at all. Hope you didn’t take my comment that way. Just want the best for you and the rest of this merry band of misfits.
I hope you can get shit squared away, and if I can be of any help, let me know. Short term; I sure hope you can get some cash outta that soon-to-be-former boss of yours.

We can only hope it ends in bankruptcy.
Lex Luther won’t let that happen. He needs it to rule the world.
Felicia Sonmez seems like an entitled grade-A cunt. You’d think the people who run the Washington Post would be offended by one of their reporters expressing the sentiment that she somehow has it rough working for them (as if she’s forced to do so) because they tolerate sexists like Weigel to run loose.
They were offended. They fired her.
After like 7 says of her bullshit. I only realized that when I Googled her and saw her Wikipedia page.
Yeah, I’m not trying to defend them by any means, but they finally did do something sensible.
And I’d love to know what fucking “trauma” Felicia Sonmez has ever experienced. Oh, I enacted my own labor. The little entitled Harvard grad claims to be a “survivor” of sexual assault. So when she reads a bad news story, she needs to take a walk around the block but then posts some nonsensical bullshit about how the real issue is just that her bosses don’t know how to deal with reporters who have suffered “trauma.” Because clearly a reporter who can’t bring themself to read a bad story is perfectly capable of doing their job.
Haha. Indeed.
lol that’s not how it works
Soooooo, she’s bipolar?
Fucking boss battles. I just got my ass kicked and now I want to throw something out a window.

99 Cent Only stores here mostly, though there are Dollar Trees and some independent versions.
DAISO is the Japan version, though I think they stopped carrying everything at 200Yen a while back, and here in the US, their prices are all over the place.
My favorite Daiso story is from a few years back, the local store had some plastic spiky mats, kind of a welcome mat of cheap astroturf, marked as being to keep away cats. Since we had a feral cat issue going on I thought, hey I’ll put that under the shrubs under the window where they like to hang out and encourage them to go somewhere else than walk on that spiky stuff with their little paws.
This idea… failed. Miserably. Apparently the cats thought these mats were massage beds, and invited all their friends.
welcome mat
99¢ has improved considerably since the introduction of freezers and produce, even if it isn’t all 99¢ anymore. Mmm, big bunches of herbs. They even carry wine now.

They are dropping the mask good and hard. The remarks about Moldava were bad enough. Lithuania is in NATO. Russia has proven it can’t win a land war against an evenly matched foe. What do they think will happen if they are stupid enough to invade Lithuania?
This is the equivalent of freaking out because some random member of the House introduced a bill calling for the invasion of Iran.
I should have read the article. That’s about right.
Even if it wasn’t, so what? We’ve pissed away 50 years of moral high ground and principles to get at our devils. And now they’re turning around on us. International relations isn’t so schoolyard where you can run to mommy to enforce rules on the other guy. It relies on everyone accepting certain premises and if we don’t accept those, why would the other guy? Because we can force it on them? Doesn’t work when it’s a peer or near peer.
But international norms! The UN! Global consensus!
That seems to confirm Michael Brenner’s assertion that in Moscow, Putin is a moderate and getting rid of him will probably not have the effect we think it will.
Stated versus revealed preferences.
People claim that everybody in this is a bad actor and they don’t believe any of the propaganda, but anything that makes Ukraine look bad is trumpeted and taken as gospel truth, while things like this that might make Russia look bad are minimized and, really, it’s the west’s fault they made Russia abuse them.

I am enjoying your toy posts CPRM. I actually like Dollar Tree. They have craft stuff, seeds – I bought marigolds there and they’ve done well. I buy greeting cards and gift bags there as well. We also have a chain called 5 Below where stuff is $5 and under.
Yup. This one was quite interesting. Definately a thing I was not aware of.
DT is great, snacks for $1.25, bottles of shampoo, paintbrushes, even some tools like pliers and screwdrivers…it’s hard to beat.
