The definitive cosplay of Marge Simpson amazes with a impossible wig

While Hobby Consoles celebrate its thirtieth anniversary, other pop culture icons, such as the Simpson, did the same, a couple of years ago. The series created by Matt Groening was the protagonist, in fact, from our first cover, and has repeated at number 364 of Hobby Consoles, with Bart Simpson as always as always. While it is true that much of the success weight of the Simpson falls at BART and Homer Simpson, the contrast papers that exercise characters such as Lisa or Marge Simpson have also faraged a good amount of fans The women of the yellow family. Today we are going to focus on Marge Simpson, the family matriark and a counterpart of the madness of Homer. She suffered housewife, mother and who, next to Lisa, usually put the dose of it from her to family follies. One of the most iconic points of Marge Simpson is the excessive blue bun of her, worthy of an English royal guard cap. I m sorry I Can not Wait to Whole Week to Show This Bitch Off. LOOK AT THIS WIG I MADE FOR MY

It is the day in which those pdf are delivered to printing and crosses the little fingers so that everything goes well. Then there are what we are still called Ferros (although they are no longer Ferros). Some fotomechanical tests to verify that everything has been mounted correctly (the sheets is a bit mess) and that give us a new possibility of retouching some little thing... The last closure of Hobby Consoles was last Thursday, the number 364, the 30th anniversary number. And yes, it has been a bad closure.
