The Simpsons Chess Set

Some crackpot decided to make a theme chess set using The Simpsons TV show characters, personally I think The Simpsons TV show is rather stupid, brainless, and even worse, pointless... As far as I know the Simpsons chess set is the only way to watch The Simpsons without getting more retarded. In fact this chess set is so dumb it makes you look twice, probably one of the reasons it sells so well, playing chess with The Simpsons Chess Set gives a whole new meaning to "a casual game of chess". So here you have it, The Simpsons chess set, in full blooded battle array, Homer and Marge ready to back you up from hell to breakfast! Well Homer will at least to breakfast! The so called "king" is Homer Simpson, he stands 3 1/4 inch's tall in his regal robes, with his perpetual white tee shirt and blue jeans while holding his scepter and beer can... this is a very unusual chess set in more than one sense... The queen is taller than the king! The queen is of course Marge Simpson, she needs a haircut... The rook is Lisa Simpson, the bishop is Brat Simpson, (oops I meant Bart). The knight is Herschel Krustofski (how he got knighted i'll never know). and last is the pawn Maggie Simpson, actually shes hugging onto the side of a pawn with her usual baby bink in her mouth. thats all I have to write about The Simpsons chess set, enjoy.
