Pictured on the left: the short-lived Factor 5 clone video game console, which came with a multicart that didn’t function… at all. Thus eliminating any reason to buy the console beyond the novelty of a “nicer” looking Famiclone.
Pictured on the right: the FC Twin 2-in-1 clone system that began this journey through classic gaming and a library of games that continues to grow to this day.
Edited from an old Action Comics cover… or is it an old World’s Finest? I don’t recall.
You ever had one of those times where you notice one thing almost looks like another?
Case in point; Shellshock, the Traffic Light Turtle from a first season episode of Power Rangers. First time I saw him, he instantly reminded me of Tokka, the mutant snapping turtle who first appeared in the second Ninja Turtles movie.
It makes you wonder… and sad that both have lived short lives.
Tokka eventually de-mutated back to its old, lovable snappy self while Shellshock ate Power Sword.
2026 Notes
Originally threw this together as something that was going to be used in a gag video montage that would fuel the endless debate over the behaviors of TV Show Picard and Movie Picard. It was to be a “music video” of sorts using DVDA’s Now You’re A Man track, with Roided Picard showing up during the chorus bits. Alas, Youtube’s Content ID and stickler for music from actual musicians killed the idea dead… so this is what’s left of that particular endeavor. Maybe I might use it again down the road.
