The McFarlane 12″ Figures have been hinted at for quite some time – we mentioned them indirectly over a year ago, then more directly in November, then more concretely still in April. Toy News International finally has details about these – including points of articulation, accessories, and release dates. Check it out! Thanks, Littlebigman.(Louis Wu 09:15:32 UTC)

Bungie Weekly Update: Informative AND Tasty
The Bungie Weekly Update went up later than usual (about 7 pm PT) Friday night… but it’s full of stuff that’ll keep the geekiest among us busy for a while. The Bungie Publications section of their website has been updated with five new talks – well, with five talks it didn’t have before. (At least one of those has been in our archives for over 6 years.) Fascinating reading, if you’ve ever wondered how Bungie makes those non-player characters act real. As always, if you have any trouble reading the Weekly Update at Bungie.net, it’s available in our Weekly Update Archive.(Louis Wu 08:54:54 UTC)

Grind Rider, a new kind of western. The grit, the sand, the guns, the blood…. it’s still the same. But the horses and six shooters? Gone the way of the buffalo.

Avenged Sevenfold coming to Huntsville for Big Spring Jam
Rock Band introduced me to Avenged Sevenfold. I’ve heard their music before, and recall enjoying their sound, but was even more struck by their lyrics. They write about some pretty mature and thought-provoking stuff, and in a way that doesn’t alienate their listeners. It doesn’t come off as religious, but still it delves rather deep into some metaphysical elements that separate them from other metal bands.
They’re coming to Huntsville on Sept. 26th for the Big Spring Jam.

Halo undergarments?
Hmm… this is a little odd. Gemini Ace has a pic of a couple of pairs of Halo-themed boxers and lounge pants found at Kohl’s (a nationwide department store chain). A little searching found the lounge pants for sale on eBay (just under 7 days remaining) – no luck on another source for the boxers, though. Thanks, t4ng0.(Louis Wu 15:17:00 UTC)
