[While re-reading the post I originally created for today, I decided that it was too negative. So I have decided to delete that and instead repost this picture of a Booster Gold-themed stuffed bunny I first ran in 2013. Have a nice day.]

Today's the day to head to your Local Comic Shop to pick up Action Comics #1076 Cover E "McFarlane Toys Card Stock Variant"! You know, the one with a Booster Gold DC Super Powers action figure on it.

It was the Blot who first pointed out this cover to us. No coincidence that it was also the Blot who ordered a whole case of Booster Gold DC Super Powers action figures.

If there is one flaw with those Booster Gold DC Super Powers action figures, it's that it doesn't come with Skeets. Well, Blot has found a solution for that, too.

There’s a guy on Etsy making awesome 3D printed accessories for McFarlane Toys' Super Powers toy line. He just made a Skeets that attaches to the back of Booster's neck (sort of how capes go on). He sells a painted and unpainted version. Got mine yesterday and it's fantastic! Pics of mine below.

The seller is NerdCandyStore, and you can visit their store on Etsy.com.

Thanks for the find, Blot.

It appears there was some data loss on the host server, and I've lost everything since Tuesday morning. Which, thankfully isn't much, as I haven't even gotten around to adding Action Comics #1057 to the database yet. So maybe it's a good thing that it's been a slow month for Booster Gold.

[For future reference, the lost post was a link to a custom Super Powers Collection-styled Booster Gold and Goldstar action figure by SuperPoweredCustoms at www.etsy.com.]

Here in the wee hours of Friday morning, I'm still finding a few glitches in the web hosting services. I'm not sure what all this means exactly (hardware failure? user error? malicious action?), but rather than risk losing another post, I'm just going to backup the database again and call it a week. See you Monday, I hope!

Some days I'm like, "what should I post today?" And other days I see things like this:

That's not a physical Justice League Unlimited Skeets model, but it could be.

It's creator, 3DPrintedPropsStuff on etsy.com, is selling the 3D files necessary to print your own 16-inch (!) Skeets model on your own personal 3D printer. I don't happen to have one of those, but if I did, this is exactly the sort of thing I would use it for. (And then I'd put an Alexa speaker in it.)

If you'd rather print yourself a Skeets that looks more like everyone's favorite security droid appeared in Booster Gold Volume 2, 3DPrintedPropsStuff has got that model, too.

Being able to print my own sidekick robot at home is something I couldn't even have dreamed of when Booster Gold debuted in 1985. The future is Boosterrific, indeed!
