Back in 1982-83, GI Joe was once again becoming popular. The 3.75" action figure line was then followed by a pretty successful daily cartoon. For $3.00 ($2.00 when on sale) you could go to the store and purchase a new figure. I remember on my birthday, my parents would give me a limit of ten dollars and take me to Toys R Us. ...

I collect a lot of figures, but rarely do I branch out from what I already know. GI Joe Classified was just starting to trickle out when Big Bad Toy Store first advertised figures from Valaverse, a new company that had a pretty successful Kickstarter. What intrigued me and many others about these figures were that they looked pretty... Read more →
I thought I would do this review on the same night the new "Antman" trailer comes out, featuring the second appearance of Jonathan Majors as MCU Phase 5 major villain, Kang. This figure though, represents a Kang variant known as "He Who Remains". This character may not be full on Kang, but more like a precursor of things to come. ... Read more →
Another day, another review. Tell me how I went from getting this figure 4 days before the movie to now waiting over a month to review it? At any rate, Hasbro did a great job of distribution of "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" movie figs, unlike the first time back in 2018 when we had such a lackluster release of figures that led to...

Leave it to Hasbro...I finally get my Blue Marvel figure that's been number 1 on my Marvel Legends wanted list, and they give us the updated "Marvel Ultimates" look from 2015. Okay, I'll take it I guess, but I still want the classic version. I'm hoping that maybe down the line we get a Walgreens or Amazon exclusive version of his... Read more →
What?!? A review of a character figure that hasn't even been fully introduced to the world yet? Yes, I bypassed a couple other figures that I really wanted to review and went straight to this one...a character that I'm very much looking forward to being introduced into the MCU...Riri Williams herself, the Invincible Iron Heart! This... Read more →
Yeah, I know, I'm about 5 months too late for this one...but a) I have a backlog sitting in a box waiting to be reviewed and b) I have some even older figures, so just get used to seeing these when I get to them. Truth be told, I had to review a Marvel Legends figure next...McFarlane Toys figures were aggravating me to no end. By now,... Read more →
I don't know about you but I'm really looking forward to the next DC movie, "Black Adam". And it's not because of the Rock. It's because of awesome actors like Aldis Hodge who portrays Hawkman in this movie. I've been following Aldis' career since I first seen him on the TV show "Leverage," and he continues to rock out the roles I've... Read more →
I've figured McFarlane out. We always suspected that his "$20" a figure was too good to be true and it is...because it comes with some cutbacks. You see, instead of McFarlane Toys selling a figure with suitable accessories, the company tries to "double-dip". They sell the same figure (in this case, Catwoman), only one has the mask on the...

Let me start with this. I am Team "Eartha Kitt" and I have been for years. I remember seeing her for the first time in Batman. I got jealous when she was pushing up on Eddie Murphy in "Boomerang" because I wished it was me. And I completely mourned her death back in 2008. I'm not going to lie, I've been waiting on an Eartha Kitt... Read more →
