They certainly are! Personally, I'm fascinated by the Lego Architecture Series. I've spent a good deal of time at Barnes & Noble talking myself out of spending hefty amounts of money on those babies!

I too was surprised that Marlon Brando was a TS. I screamed at the screen when they added the photo to the clue, "Oh, why not just give it away completely!" But that wasn't the case. I believe it must be generational. Even someone who's 40 was born in 1977, five years after The Godfather and they'd have been two years old when Apocalypse Now was released. Understandable that a large percentage of Gen Xers and Millennials could miss that one, with or without a photo. This Baby Boomer got the answer as soon as I heard Sacheen Littlefeather's name!
As for the upcoming ToC, I'm fine with almost anyone but Pranjal, of whom I was not a fan. Austin didn't bug me but my favorites are probably Buzzy, Seth and Andrew.
