Someone Order a Heaping Helping of Short Round?
Well, opinions may vary on Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, but I think we can all agree that Indiana Jones toys are still A Good Thing. Hasbro continues the line with Temple of Doom, natch, an assortment due in October that includes Short Round, Willie, a Temple Thug, a Temple Guard, and of course Mola Ram, holding that flaming human heart that we all know and love. Think Willie’ll come with a chilled monkey brain accessory? That would be beyond awesome. (Via ToyNewsI)

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.
