Alyrenee's Copious Spare Time

I was watching Key and Peele on Hulu the other day and imagine my surprise when I see a Tonner Arwen doll pop up in the title sequence !  The opening is a fun parody of HBO's True Detective  show.  They used Arwen in an earlier sketch (shows up around the 2:23 minute mark along with other toys...). Anyway...I find the show pretty humorous..funnier than SNL at the very least.

He looks pretty cunning...

Pictures for Aragorn and Arwen are up. I am surprised by how reasonable the prices are for these two as compared to the Pirates of the Caribbean Dolls. I think Viggo looks good but I cannot tell about Arwen's sculpt. I would also love to know if her ears are pointy or not? The two Queens from the Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland are up as well. I love Mirana.

Okay, here's what I can remember in my sleep deprived exhausted stupor... New Twilight Tonner Character Figures: Laurent, James, Victoria (wearing the black tank top, fur cape, jeans, and bare flat feet), Jacob, and Alice. We saw sculpt for everyone but Alice and a finished prototype for Victoria. Lemme just say that I can't freaking wait for these...they all looked fabulous. I am definitely planning to get Laurent as he will just look plain cool. Doctor Who/Torchwood: We saw the prototypes finished. I loved them. I think David Tennant's hair should be longer like Twilight Edward's though. Capt. Jack and Gwen looked great. I like Jack on the Superman body...meow. Martha was very cute too. Sounds like there will never be a Billie Piper. Sadness. LORD OF THE RINGS...need I say more. I warned my poor boyfriend to clear off a shelf. Prince of Persia with Jake Gyllenhaal...and I think he said two female characters. I am guessing Tamina played by Gemma Arterton..no...
