A movie about the man who broke the color barrier in major league baseball is coming to theaters this weekend.

Jackie Robinson

Django 12"

I am sad today.  I just found out that my pre order on the Django 12" action figure has been cancelled.  The company will not be releasing the doll because of the backlash towards the 8" figures.  This was a collector doll of Jamie Foxx.
