Nintendo Gets Beaned

Toy enthusiasts know how in-demand collectible plush animals these days, with the Beanie Babies craze flooding airwaves each holiday season. A Seattle-based company has unveiled beanie Nintendo characters available at retailers like Toys R Us, Babbage's, and JC Penny for under $6.00. The first slate includes beloved Mario series regulars: Mario, Yoshi, Donkey Kong, and Bowser. Be on the lookout as these are hard to find.


They Killed Barney!

Two million people stood along the streets of Manhattan as a timeless tradition unfolded: The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade! Floats, bands, you know the drill. This joyous ceremony was undercut by whipping winds that stirred trouble for the parade's massive character balloons. As the Cat in the Hat crashed into a lamppost, Barney tore wide open as cops pulled it from the air, stabbing with knives as children watched in horror. Happy Holidays!
