May 31, 2005 - (Sponsor Announcement) - Online retailer BigBadToyStore.com has several new items of interest to collectors:

PRE-ORDER TRANSFORMERS ORION PAX EXCLUSIVE: The next exclusive reissue repaint is now available to pre-order. Kup and Wheelie will be repainted as Orion Pax and a yet unnamed Cybertronian. Orion Pax is a Freight Handler / Transport Vehicle and comes with a chrome & black Targetmaster. The set is priced at $57.99 and is available here.

MCFARLANE'S MONSTERS 4 - TWISTED FAIRY TALES: This line continues to become more and more graphic as it continues. Twisted Fairy Tale sets of 6 are available for $62.99 and contain disturbed renditions of Hansel & Gretel, Red Riding Hood, Miss Muffet, Peter Pumpkin Eater, and Humpty Dumpty. Because of the intestines, maggots, severed heads, skimpy outfits and overall gore - this set is recommended for collectors ages 17 and up. (Pre-Orders will be processed shortly)
