A Fistful of Mini-Mates
If you like your gunfighters quiet, short, and with no name, then are you in luck. Diamond Select has released this image of its forthcoming A Fistful of Dollars Mini-
Mates set, based on the 1964 Sergio Leone film based on Akira Kurosawa’s Yojimbo. The set includes Clint Eastwood as the Man With No Name, plus Ram?n Rojo, John Baxter and Marisol (and a rock). Unfortunately, no laugh-hating, paranoid mule is included.
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
