So at Toys R Us they have
these now. And I bought two of them, one of Pedroia and one of Big Time Timmy Jim.
And there are pictures. But be warned - Dustin looks like a cross between Rocco Baldelli and J.D. Drew.
Dustin in his packaging...
And Lincecum.
Timmeh glows with an ethereal light when you take pictures of him with the flash on.
These things are actually surprisingly posable.
Change-up grip?
Dustin, believe it or not.
Really. I dunno, guys.
Super-Timmeh with Choco Taco-Eating Action!
Together!
Yes, they're about the size of Power Rangers.
Dustin is a teenager with attitude.
Mug shot!
Yeah, it doesn't look like Dustin at ALL.
There are more, too. I kind of want them all, I think. So they can have epic battles of awesome.
One more final to go - on Friday. I'll have to see about getting my Camden Yards post done...
EDIT: NIESE, BE CUTER.
This article appeared today, and...yeaaaah.
Adorable Jon Niese quote on the Phillies: "I wouldn't say I wasn't intimidated, because that's a scary lineup," Niese said. "But at the same time, I've got a job to do. And I went out and did it."
And adorable Jon Niese quote on the way he's prepared for starts: "We prepare really well," he said. "We go through meetings about hitters. We always have a plan. That's a key to a lot of our success."
Scary lineup? D'awwwwww, you! Seriously, Niese is the most unfairly cute pitcher ever. Gah.
