Merry Christmas from Zone Base!

It's Christmas Eve as this is posting and the beginning of a little holiday break for me. I'll be back Monday ready to start a new week here on Planet Zone. Thanks to each and every one of you for continuing to read and support my weird site about robots and monsters. Please share with your friends and have a Merry Christmas!

Tell the Monstroids it's Christmas

The He-Man and She-Ra Christmas Special is a very odd cartoon. Two earth children find themselves on Eternia and have an adventure. It's really a series of sub-plots strung together to make a short 40 minute little movie. One of the more interesting adventures is when the Monstroids get involved. In the MOTU toy line, Monstroid is a large robot monster that's part of The Evil Horde. In the grand tradition of Filmation taking liberties with the source material, instead there's a group of transforming robots called The Monstroids. Though they did later on appear as member of the Horde in a later She-Ra episode.

Clearly both a take on the popular transforming robot toys at the time (obviously Transformers, but there was a few other lines as well) and maybe a little dig at the competition (we've got to stop those evil transforming robots) before the Meteorbs were introduced. I've mentioned before how much I love the bat shit crazy nature of the line in general. A random group of transforming robots showing up in a Christmas special only to be thwarted by another group of robots is a prime example of that.

There'll be scary ghost stories and tales of the glories...

Did you guys think I forgot what site this is? Sure I enjoy Christmas, love it actually. Zone is a weird planet with lot of dark corners where creepy things lurk. Kowabana is one of my favorite podcasts. It's translated true ghost stories and creepypasta from Japan. Kowabana itself means scary stories, which we're supposed to be telling as well as those tales of the glories  you know...

Deck the halls and trim the tree, Christmas Day is here! Merry Christmas from us here on Planet Zone! Thanks to each and every one of you for reading. I hope everyone enjoys their holiday and I'll be back next week!

If There's Somethin' Strange Under Your Christmas Tree

I'm pretty sure Ebenezer would have employed the Ghostbusters if possible.

After Christmas, Hills hired them to get rid of that weird little elf guy.

Alex Karras, Transformers, And Christmas

Alex Karras is known for many things. Played football, was a sportscaster, wrestled, and starred in Webster as George. Oh yeah, he also did a Transformers Christmas commercial where he nagged your parents to buy them ASAP.

Honestly as nice as Alex seemed in life, he strikes me as that uncle who at the family Christmas dinner eats the entire cheese ball before clogging the toilet. He later say's something about laying the yule log. I know a lot about that uncle.

It me.

Have Yourself A TRS-80 Christmas

It's 40 years later and I'm still blown away by that price. Know what's not 40 years ago? A new week on Zone Base! That was horrible! It's the last week of the Christmas season and the seasonal shenanigans will continue for a few more days. I don't want to go into details, but I just super misspelled the fuck out of continue. It was like five sentences. Good thing for spellcheck!

We've got a fun week of posts here on Planet Zone full of Christmas cheer! Thanks each and every one of you for continuing to read Zone Base and please share with your friends. Or your enemies. I don't know why you'd be talking to them.

I Am So Uncomfortable Right Now

Ever have a dream that you wake up from and have to make sure didn't really happen?
