      Puck singing a Bryan Adams tune is funny, but I'd have given the writers more street cred if they had him sing Little Bones by The Tragically Hip.

      Can someone please explain to me (because I must have missed it), why is Walter always in Sasquatch form? You would think it would be easier for him to use computer consoles and the like with human fingers as opposed to 'Squatch hands. I know Sasquatch went through a "dumb period" but what happened in between then and now? Just occured to me that maybe the "dumb period" has switched over to the Walter persona and so 'Squatch is now the smart side. It would certainly explain Walt's absence.

      I have no idea why he's in Sasquatch form all the time, but on another note Puck is being shown as smart as a tack and cool to boot.

      Yep, they've done a nice job making Sasquatch, Aurora and Puck relevant.

      I just can't believe Puck was Hydra all along!

      That'd be awesome if you could fella.
      I think a M would do. Let me know how much money you want with shipping etc.

      This has just reminded me that I never sorted out those Minimates with you in the end!
