|  | Captain of the Maximal research vessel Axalon, Optimus Primal was forced into the role of a warrior in the Beast Wars. He rose up to become one of the greatest heroes in the history of Cybertron. His fate is tied in a fundamental way to that of the mad arch-villain Megatron. Optimus Primal knows this, and understands that it is he -- and he alone -- who must pursue Megatron across time and space in order to put a stop once and for all to his evil plans. This detailed robot figure changes into an impressive beast machine and back again. He can ride the "jet-powered" hover board, or use it as a weapon with its firing projectile and snap-open assault blade. Figure comes with hover board, projectile, Maximal ship Axalon and comic book. Measures 6" tall. (less)Hasbro - 081147G | $75  amazon.com |

|  | Beast Wars Megatron took the form of a tyrannosaurus once he reached prehistoric Earth. This initial form was large and bulky, the dinosaur head serving as the right hand and the dinosaur tail, reconfigured into a pincher claw, serving the left hand. The original figure had hip-mounted projectile-firings guns. Prior to the signing of the Pax Cybertronia, Megatron held a command position. The Japanese version had a somewhat antagonistic past relationship with the Emperor of Destruction, Galvatron. Megatron favored complicated intrigues and subtle manipulations to the original Megatronâs straightforward conquest-driven assaults. Though his initial mission, guided by the stolen Golden Disk, involved uncovering the Ark and destroying the stasis-locked G1 Optimus Prime, thus robbing the Autobots of their victory against the Decepticons, Megatron, consummate opportunist, did take the time pursue a few of his own interests first.

|  | INTRODUCTION N times less secure than our own, refuges were 1 placed down, at intervals, over the untamed country, according to the special needs and dangers of the place. A conlmon site was the river bank, or the entrance to the mountain pass, where the traveller might rest till the brown water subsided, or the daylight returned. Scotland abounds in flooded streams, and stern passes. At tlie southern end of a road, leading over the central Grampian ridge to and from Braemar, stands the spital, or hospital of Glenshee. Everything seems to point to the genesis of the present hamlet in an ancient shelter. The scene is typical. And if, in imagination, we refill the shades, cast by the then dense woodland, with wild beasts, the reason for the choice will become still more apparent. It must be difficult for those who now halt by the way at the inn, to realise a past state of things. m As a last resourLe, much of thewood was destroyed and the tenants thereof dealt wit11 on more equal terms. So began a war of extermination, only justifiable as a measure of self - preservation, which was not without its sscrifices. The mischief, as far as the trees are concerned, we are slowly repairing often with no other view than to soften and vary the hardness and monotony of the landscapes. What about the animals - Toward the close of last century, a temporary movement began which soon spent itself, and seems to have excited so little attention, that, probably, its very existence is not generally ltnown. Its object was to restore some of the exiles thus, unceremoniously, driven forth. The boldest advocate of things as they were, acknowledged that these islands were too contracted for the larger, and more dangerous of the wild animals to be turned loose and drew the line at the bear, and the wolf. But, it seemed to some that it might increase the picturesqueness even of such hills as ours, if the reindeer were once more to walk along the ridges, in relief against the evening sky and tha@G±ë…¸Rÿ¾Û€ (less) | $47  A1Books |
|  | Not old enough to fight in the First World War (though he did manage to fight in it centuries later, by going back in time), but destined to lead the first successful expedition to another star system, and then some, the (literally) immortal Lazarus Long is the most popular and enduring character created by Robert A. Heinlein, author of numerous New York Times best sellers. Across five decades, he appeared and reappeared in Heinlein's most popular novels, including Methuselah's Children, Time Enough for Love, The Number of the Beast, To Sail Beyond the Sunset, and others. Long is the oldest living member of the human race by virtue of a unique set of chromosomes, aided by the advanced rejuvenation technology of the far future. He has been a pioneer on eight planets, survived wars and lynch mobs, and explored all of interstellar space known to humanity, as well as some other parts he doesn't talk about. Long's adventures and narrow escapes have given him a breadth of experience distilled through the irony of an immortal viewpoint. But there is nothing stuffy or snobbish about Long's reflections on the human condition. As the noted editor and critic David G. Hartwell has observed, Lazarus' comments are acute, lively and intelligent. And here they are, compiled in one beautifully designed book, for the delight of the millions of Heinlein fans around the world. (less) | $30  A1Books |
|  | Controversy still rages concerning Major General Benjamin F. Butler's administration in New Orleans during the second year of the Civil War. Some historians have extolled the general as a great humanitarian, while others have vilified him as a brazen opportunist, agreeing with the wealthy of occupied New Orleans who labeled him Beast Butler. In this thorough examination of Butler's career in the Crescent City, noted historian Chester G. Hearn reveals that both assessments are correct. As a criminal lawyer prior to becoming a politician, Butler learned two great lessons - how to beat the rich and powerful at their own game, and how to succeed as a felon without being caught. In New Orleans, Hearn demonstrates, Butler drew on these lessons, visibly enjoying power, removing those who questioned his authority, and delighting in defeating his opponents. Because of his remoteness from Washington, he was able to devise his own rules as he went along, surrounding himself with trusted friends and family members who had no choice but to keep his secrets lest they incriminate themselves. Butler made every effort to humble the rich, who abhorred him, and whose sordid characterizations of his regime - some true, some not - became legendary. As Hearn explains, Butler's legacy of corruption clouded many admirable aspects of his administration. He championed the poor, many of whom would have starved had he not fed and employed them. He also established sanitation policies that helped rid the city of disease and saved the lives of thousands of New Orleans' less fortunate. Vividly describing Butler's childhood and his political career before and after the war, Hearn deftly places Butler's New Orleans reign in the context of his entire life. He also offers fascinating new information on Butler, including the first investigation of his suspicious accumulation of great wealth late in life. (less) | $8  A1Books |
