Very cool wristband! How much was it?

I don't like the fact they put the word "Retro" right on the package. Oh well, you dont wear the package.

The only thing wrong IMO is the nicole richie boobs. Everything else is spot on. I don't think her head would look so big if she had the rack she should. I've loved April since 88 and so far i've seen her put on a grand total of 4 things. Figures, Austrailian Crayon box, Contact Paper, and one kids shirt. I'm starved for my favorite cartoon character and have been for a very long time, i'm not about to complain about an 80's April being put on anything. Tiny boobs or not. Afterall i'm probably one of about 3 people that would buy it anyway lol.

I'd buy it but I'm not going to because that is mock 80's april not 80's april.

BTW, wnet to Goth Profit last night... None of that. None of that. I did see a nice Grim and Evil T-shirt, but no TMNT.

Maybe that's why they didn't approve the last designs.

I just wish they'd think of making Krang stuff. I mean, Yeah, the four Turtles, Shredder, the 2 dunderheads... but where is the true star of the old school TMNT at?

Hot Topic isn't goth. It's EMO.

It was until Emo came on.

Now it's a random hodge podge of that, the Guitar Hero crowd, and a tiny tweensy section devoted to the animation fan.

I really want to start up my own franchise of Toon related merchandise stores. Probably go out of business, though.

They just do that so the kids that vaugley remember their older brother liking TMNT will think it's cool.

It's actually a pretty cool wristband... only problem is: I don't wear wristbands. Emo kids do, so I'm sure they're happy.

I dare not wear a sweatband in public, but I will proudly wear the Leo one to cushion my wrist as I paint on my digital tablet. Oh yes...

Anyone know when those cell phone charms will appear?

Aren't wristbands for Tennis players? I mean, aren't they? And Usopp? He wears one of those, I think.

But I'm more interrested in everything but the wrist bands. I still wonder what the plush thing would be? Would they be similar to the Hot Topic Bean bags (that I missed) or would they be something else? I really hope they're retro too. I want a plushy Bebop and Rocksteady.
