EPIC!
Happy Thorsday!
Too funny, too cool! The lovely Anna is very thoughtful. I like you better as Batman though!
On the plus side, had it been authentic imagine how expensive the shipping cost would’ve been, Tom!
I’ve been looking to get one of these lately. This looks like a really good one. What brand is it?
