I just kinda wish it wasn't a plushie. I mean what's the point? Something more figure like would be better, I think.

Something out of a hard plastic maybe? I would love to see something in the scale of the new TRON figures... that way they could have Figures for the Characters as well... all with talking abilities. I think that would be cool.

Yeah. and, I'd want the panels to pop out and stuff too.
To be honest, I think Valve should capitalize on Portal's set of characters. I wouldn't even be against it becoming a all-ages show. The playsets would be nuts. Have like, detachable and configurable test chambers.
It's one of the few instances I can think of where franchising wouldn't be a bad idea. Just controlled franchising.

Last thing we'd want is for Portal license to be as washed out and oversaturated as Star Wars. As much as I love the Wars, it's just ridiculous.
With that being said, I definitely want to see some hardcore statues of Portal characters. Who wouldn't want a talking Glados figure with mechanical articulation? Nobody that's who!

Ya mean the old school Joe's with the kung-fu grip? Like this one:
http://sean.adventureteam.com/gijoe/new-at/gijoe-at-ce-talkingcommander.htm
Now can you see Freeman and the Portal Bots in this scale and with more modern abilities, like the talking and the holographic lights seen in the new TRON figures and toys?

Nah, modern toys are so much better than the old school ones. The new G.I. Joe's are pretty nuts in terms of quality.
I was really thinking on like, that scale, though.

On the JOE comment, yeah I was talking about that scale as well... I used to have the 6 million dollar man action figure that came with an engine block he could pick up. lol

The next total eclipse visible from the US will be August 2017. If I have to drive to the spot, I'm seeing this one.

To be specific it's a solar eclipse. (A partial lunar eclipse is happening the same year)

That would definitely eliminate a linear layout.
Nice find Adam.
I wonder what the r's look like in there...

There aren't r-speeds in Source engine.
It's been a long time since people have relied on polygon counts to measure performance. (There is a resource manager in source, though, it's much more informative, which includes polygon count, as well as your budget for everything else)
