Now You Know

Now you know and knowing means you get cool crap. At least that's what it means on the twitters. What am I talking about you might ask?


Well my friend, sit down for a spell, and I will enlighten you. On April 21st, 2011 I replied to a very funny tweet from @PepsiThrowback:

Tweet made, I went on my merry way. A day or so later I got a DM from our friends @PepsiThrowback, telling me they thought my tweet to them was rad, and that they wanted to send me something "From the Throwback Vault."


I quickly sent them my mailing address, assuming I was going to get a t-shirt or something. Then, yesterday after work I found this waiting for me:


What is this then!?


Ooooh, that is a pretty big box for a t-shirt. I wonder what could be inside. Hmm, looks like a card:


A nice card from Pepsi Throwback


Oh well that's nice guys, I think you are totally rad as well. You might actually be bordering on bodacious. Looks like there is something else under this paper. Lets get that out of the way and take a look.


A look in the box


Oh two cans of Pepsi Throwback and... Holy Crap is that GI JOE!?


The goods.


Holy Balls, it is a set of GI JOE action figures from 2008! That is just ridiculously awesome. Let's take a closer look.


The goods, detail view


The only irritating part about this whole thing is now I have to make the decision, do I take them out to play with them with my boy, or keep them mint in the box?


I blame you for my current existential dilemma Pepsi. I blame you. Oh and thanks for the swag, it is truly awesome.
