<<waldorf blofeld : Michael Jackson>>

You hit that one out of the park. If you had included a pic of both that would have killed (no pun intended). My only complaint is I think the Blofeld has about 5 pounds on Michael =)

Fixed. James Earl Jones sounds analog and bassy as f**k but you know Vader has some digital business keeping him functioning and s**t.

I thought I had the perfect match for the OSCar and Bobcat Goldthwait....then I saw Mome Rath already used him for the Evolver. What are the odds of that? Who has even thought of that guy in the last 15 years? Ahh well. My comparison still stands.
