The JEM comic is ending at issue #26.
https://www.previewsworld.com/Catalog/FEB170499

Though apparently just the "ongoing" is ending, leading to spectulation that JEM will continue through additional mini-series.

With it I always need three cups of fries sauce (what is that stuff called in English? I'm referring to the yellow sauce with herbs?),
If it's the same sauce we put on the Big Mac, it's called "Thousand Island Dressing".

I practically pick up a large drink at one every night as every route to work I can take has one on the way. And if a "Streetpass Weekend" is going on, I AM hitting everyone I can on the way to work, and everyone in town on my day off.

My menu item of choice is a "Bacon-Cheddar McChicken" (formerly a menu item)- A regular McChicken, add bacon and White cheddar cheese ($.50 for bacon, $.25 for cheese). I've started adding pickles because chicken sandwiches HAVE pickles, and going light on the mayo.

PRO-TIP: You can apparently switch cheeses on your burgers from American to white cheddar with no up-charge. HOWEVER: I only did that once so it may vary store-to-store.


As for breakfast, I don't really DO McD breakfast. They seriously made a BIG DEAL about having breakfast ALL DAY but I still can't get a cheeseburger at 6:30 in the morning?!

I'm glad Jem wasn't included in "Revolution", because what would they would've done in the course of the story? Though there is nothing stopping the comic from being absorbed into the greater Hasbro continuity, but I'm glad JEM gets to keep being it's own thing.

You know what, JEM's critical success is probably what encouraged IDW/Hasbro to dredge up their obscure/dead properties and start building up these IPs and hoping for multiple lighting strikes.

Also, I always thought the Dreadnoks from G.I. Joe would make great roadies for The Misfits.

I should also point towards the (brief) Jem article from the Transformers wiki;

What happened to the Bayonetta, Cloud and Corrin amiibos?
That has been my thought since Nintendo Direct. Those 3 were announced last year(?), then the new Mario ones back at E3, new Zelda ones days ago; but the Mario series one come out in November. What the hay?!

Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm going to hold out hope for a Dynasty/Samurai/Hyrule Warriors-sytle game.

I saw a Jem Complete Series box set yesterday and the back made no mention of any special features; to be more accurate, I didn't see a special call-out reguarding Special Features as I didn't read the back. Did they re-release the series without the features (specifically the toy commericals)?

I've been meaning to get the set with the commericals as they (along with other Marvel/Sunbow Productions in Asscoication with Hasbro i.e. Transformers and G.I. Joe) includedorginal animation.

So far I have Isabelle, Digby, K.K. Slider, Reese, Cyrus, Tom Nook and Timmy and Tommy Nook, and Rover

That'd just leave:
Blathers
Celeste
Isabelle (whichever costume you didn't get. Summer/Winter)
Kapp'n
Kicks
Lottie
Mabel
Resetti

Though as much as i see these around, you can probable wait a bit for stores to start marking them down as their pegs are choking and the figures aren't moving. Or check Gamestopp regularly for pre-owned figures.

I just wished she wasn't posed with her hands on her hips, as thats her pose on ALL of the (what little) merchandise she gets.

But hey, maybe an update for that Mini-Mario and mini-friends game.

Being very recent books (Zim especially) I wouldn't worry about value. Depending on how many books were donated, just put together in a $.25/$.50 bin. Maybe a dollar.

Have a small stack of 13 on my desk, and 8 of them are is sequential order. With them are 2 'Silver certificate' $1 bills if anyone knows what those are.

My mom brought home the 8 when A guy paid with a few.

According to the coin shop in town, they aren't rare and being in order dosen't make them anymore special. Just uncommon as they aren't widely used.

Didn't know there were going to be other non-cast ponies. Should really pay more attention.  There is always some mare sneaking in amongst the repeats.

Pony-wise, hanging from my car's rear-view mirror is a 2012 McDonalds Cheerilee which of course is present for all in, and out of, town misadventures.

Before tha, when I went to conventions, I always carried with me a Transformers: Cybertron Crosswise figure. Near as I can tell he it was one of only 2 TFs at the 2014 Pony Fair, where I accidently left it at the hotel bar prior to the Hall of Fame dinner (he was safe behind the bar when I got back).
