The novelist Ernest Hemingway once remarked that “all modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn,” and other writers such as poet T. S. Eliot and African American novelist Ralph Ellison have added their acclaim. Mark Twain, the pen name of Samuel Clemens, worked for eight years on the story of an outcast white boy, Huck, and his adult friend Jim, a runaway slave, who together flee Missouri on a raft down the Mississippi River in the 1840s. The book has been controversial since the day it was published, opinions ranging from “the book is a masterpiece” to the book is “trash and suitable only for the slums.” The free-spirited and not always truthful Huck narrates the colorful stories in the book in his own coarse and ungrammatical voice. He shows a lack of respect for religion and adult authority and repeatedly uses the “n” word. Some readers view the book as satire and consider it a powerful attack on racism. Others believe it contributes to a “racially hostile environment” and are offended by the language and the portrayal of the slave Jim. In spite of it all, Huck Finn remains the Great American Novel to the many people who have read it and loved it.

This vintage book, Lad of Sunnybank by Albert Payson Terhune, was published by Grosset & Dunlap. It is a presumed first edition and bears a 1929 copyright, though it may have been printed later. Lad's adventures include his friends Rameses the Raccoon and Zat the Crow.
I've got to say, I think this figure looks so much better in truck mode than in robot mode (not that that's gonna make me display it in that mode, but still...) Even that, though, has some room for improvement. The side windows in the doors could have had a translucent blue plastic insert in them to match the windshield, and the chrome could have extended out to cover the whole bumper.

The bloody death toll of WWI had left so many bereaved that people who had never been able to say goodbye to loved ones flocked to mediums in hopes of re-establishing contact. One of the key figures stirring the revival in Spiritualism was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who had himself lost a son, a brother and nine other relatives in the war. He became a proselytizer for Spiritualism, writing books about it, including two in 1918 alone, and became one of the public leaders of the movement.
Contemptuous of frauds and fakes, Houdini desperately wanted to believe in things undreamt of in his philosophy, but he was continually disappointed. His time at the carnivals had made him aware of many of the tricks used by unscrupulous mediums, and his experience as an illusionist made it easy for him to disprove them. He began to resent how he and bereaved people in general had been bamboozled by scam-artists who preyed on vulnerability, and he grew active in exposing them. He stepped up his exposure of dishonest mediums with his book “A Magician Among the Spirits,” which revealed the secrets behind floating handkerchiefs, “spirit hands,” and messages from the beyond. Following the deaths of Houdini and Doyle, Spiritualism fell into disrepute, once again the province of carnival fortune tellers and con men.

This guy has a pretty awesome transformation sequence - great engineering. I'm not a huge fan of Bayformers (the Michael Bay movie version of The Transformers), but I really like the Transformers: Prime show. It seems to strike a nice balance between Bayformers and G1.
I'm glad Hasbro made this Voyager Class version of Optimus, because I really didn't like the design of the Deluxe Class one... Still waiting for Megatron!
