Wow! Those are pretty bad! I still want them.

Check this out:



Cosmic Boy?

[Astro Forever]

He's gone from "Cosmic Hero" in Dragonrider1227's to "Cosmic Boy" in Novacain's!

You have to wonder if it's just an involutary translation issue. Many years ago, here, we were discussing the content on an Italian website and somebody noticed he seemed to be called "Star Boy" in Italy. But in fact, we were using something like Babelfish, which translated the Italian "Astro" into "Star" just like any other dictionary would.

I think that was my post!

[Astro Forever]

It was!

I thought so, in fact.

I'm worried, I sometimes seem to have an easier time remembering posts from 5 years ago than others from last year that I should normally remember.

I have a strange fascination with bootleg toys. I'd never buy them but I like seeing them.
Anyone else agree?

[Gotta Love ASTRO BOY]

I agree

Um, both of them have "Astro Boy" somewhere on their packaging, so...
