Digging Up an Oft-Turned Grave: Living Dead Dolls Sadie, Evolved


Living Dead Dolls faded out in terms of the original cast of characters, and felt like it had been a dying brand supported by licensing for years...but of course you can't really die forever in LDD-land.

I've never dropped money on a collector release so immediately, and this was a pretty premium product--that alone should convey how swiftly this wicked little doll slipped her rusty hooks into my moldering flesh.

How a TT&T Post Gets Made

Alright, it's slow time again! My next Valentine post is in delay right now. I have every reason to believe it'll be done before the holiday, but it's not happening right now and a lull gets me itchy. So I'll take this behind-the-scenes!

RESTYLE ICONS: Good Boy Bad!

It feels like forever since I did one of these! Let's take a look at one of two (or one half of two) characters who never really worked for me.
