Bandana Kid, Sans Bandana
Now that Go-Lo has the use of Bandana Kid, they’ve wasted no time reinventing his image for the Zoomin’ Zeros (like the Roaring Twenties, but with iPods).
They’ve done away with the beer-gut emphasising black t-shirt in favour of a hip tank-top, and even introduced a love interest to the Bandana Kid Universe. That’s bullshit, man. Bandana Kid is never tied down to one woman.
Probably the biggest crime committed against Bandana Kid’s image should be readily apparent to any Bandana Kid fan: the removal of the bandana.
Turns out he has a normal head. So much for all our predictions of BK’s looking like some kinda hybrid of human and dinosaur (pachycephalosaurus.. say it with me… pachycephalosaurus) with a grossly deformed forehead, like in that Whoopi Goldberg movie. No, not Made In America; I mean Theodore Rex. Little Ted Danson humour for ya there…
How could a discount chain that gave us something as awesome as the giant Olmec Santa head do this to Bandana Kid?!
Without the bandana, he is just ‘Kid’. It’s sort of like KISS without the makeup…Well…I just feel empty inside now…Thanks a lot Daniel85…You’ve ruined Christmas…
Mam, if only he knew how much of a fan basein he had on this site. hahahahahahaha.
NOOOOOOO!!!! What a sellout! My childhood is ruined now! We should start a petition to bring his bandana back.
I bet that dame in the picture did it to him. She got her claws into him and robbed him of his glory.
There are no heroes left in the world anymore. None. : (
The Artist Formally Known as Bandana Kid…
I think we’re all jumping to negative conclusions here, what say the little chick is actually his wife, they’ve been married for a loooooong time and she suggested in an utmost supportive way “Bandana Kid/hasband, why not try working without the bandana? I know, I know, it seems CRAZY, but, you’ve got the talent to take it all the way, without the bandana. Afterall, Dumbo flew without the feather.”
Wait a second … I’ve just compared thee Bandana to Dumbo’s feather. GOOD GRAVY, WHAT HAVE I DONE?!?!
* clenches fist, bites middle of pinky finger, camera zooms in to an expression of fear, band plays the obligatory, “Dun dun DUNNN!!!” *
Oops, I meant “husband” …
Come on Grant, that Ted Danson joke was for you. Sometimes I just don’t know why I bother.
I was going to say something but I thought the two of us had an unspoken bond that transcends nations and continents that it was already obvious it was intended for me.
However if that’s your tone of voice, I think I’ll sleep on the couch tonight. (Sobs) And I’ll be watching “Getting even with Dad” all alone on a Saturday Night too.
Heh, that movie was actually on TV at some random mid-afternoon time the other day. Ted Danson with a ponytail… it’s simultaneously hideous and beautiful.
I got the movie poster above my ceiling right next to my three men and a baby one…..Which my dog Sam Malone likes to sleep next to.
Don’t talk to me about Three Men And A Baby… I’m still scared of that ghost.
C’mon you know that kid should never have talked shit to Tom Selleck like that, He brought it on himself.
Oh! The ghost in ‘Three Men and a Baby’!!! I saw that on The Extraordinary about 10 years ago. Aparently it was a street kid that snuck onto the set.
Why must you shatter all my dreams, Gitoku? : (
