Kind of a mixed bag, here

@Tonnerdirect: 2011 TOY FAIR RELEASE IS NOW LIVE!!! http://fb.me/VxYR6S1D

Twilight: The official reveal of Tonner Jasper (which I grabbed pictures of last week). The more I look at this, the more I am convinced that this will actually be a good likeness in person. As opposed to...

The Vampire Diaries: What. What. What is this. What. I don't even

Yay, Discount Chocolatemas!

Hear hear.

Oh my god, I can't decide who is more terrifying: doll!Stefan or doll!Damon. At least doll!Damon looks vaguely like Ian minus the MASSIVE FOREHEAD and weirdly shaped face. Doll!Stefan is just wrong in all ways.

And Elena and Jasmine both look like they have the same weirdly stretched wide face.

On the plus side, cheap chocolate soon YAY.

Silence of the Lambs anniversary! I know what I'm watching tonight. :-)

I love, love, love that the studio made a special effort to release The Silence of the Lambs on a Tuesday. For personal reasons, mid-February 1991 remains well-remembered by me, including how aware I was of that film. Which remains one of my favorites.

Wow. They, uh. They either made Jasmine's painted on face way too small, or they made her have a very chubby face. I can't quite tell.

[dani_california]

My God, that is an awkwardly worded sentence. Good job, self.

[lissa_quon]

The eyes are also too small. Disney in the 90's started doing really large eyes on their female cahracters (not anime big but still big), and for some reason Tonner isn't.

[cleolinda]

The eyes on the Belle are actually kind of decent--not quite big enough, but you can tell they tried. If they had to reuse a face, I'd think they'd reuse Belle's for both Ariel and Jasmine, since they were all drawn within the same period. But no, Ariel gets a new sculpt and Jasmine doesn't, and they reuse a sculpt that doesn't even look like her. I don't even know.

Ah, Silence of The Lambs. It's in my top 20 favourite movies ever somewhere. I read the books before I saw the films when I was about 14 and fell in love with Clarice, she was so kickass and inspirational. We should all just pretend that the book Hannibal never happened. Bless you Ridley Scott for changing the ending and not fucking up one of my literary heroes for life.

[soleta_nf]

How do the books end? (I am okay with spoilers.)

[cupcakery]

Clarice and Hannibal ride off into the sunset after he tries to brainwash her into thinking that she's Misha, his dead sister. It's. Uh. Interesting.

[soleta_nf]

That's ... wow. There are no words.
