Well, McFarlane Toys did it! They took over the DC action figure license from Mattel after 15+ years and came out the gate running. The first wave of figures from the start of their 3-year license agreement with DC has started to hit stores starting with 9 different characters. And to add insult to injury, they are making the whole line... Read more →

Okay, expect this month of January to be figures I should have gotten to last year...case in point, Hasbro finally released a Mace Windu figure after six years of the line being in existence... In reality, I did not really need a Mace Windu figure. I previously purchased and reviewed the SH Figuarts version back in 2017 and found that... Read more →

  Remember when the greatest athletes or entertainers were seemingly named Mike/Michael? Michael Jordan ruled the basketball court. Michael Jackson ruled the airwaves.  And we laughed in amusement and in disgust when Mike Tyson would take out an opponent in under a minute. Fast forward to now and Michael Jackson has passed away and his... Read more →

The wait is over! "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" is here and...yeah, it was okay. We got some of the answers we were looking for. We had some good WTF moments and some bad WTF moments...and then there were the parts that were just...THERE. One of those "THERE" moments comes in new character, Jannah.  Without spoiling the movie,... Read more →

It's the end of 2017 and everyone was waiting in anticipation for February 2018...that's when Black Panther was going to release in theaters.  DC and the CW seemingly tried to take (or share) some of that thunder (no pun intended) by releasing their own resident Black superhero first in January 2018...Black Lightning! Now Black... Read more →

ABOUT DAMN TIME! We have been through two waves of admittedly awesome Black Panther Marvel Legends figures....okay, the first wave was half good with Hasbro not expecting the success of Black Panther and putting out a wave with a comic version of Iron Man, Namor, and Black Bolt, but the second wave of Black Panther figures was lit! ...

It was a rough time in my life...since I lost my MoviePass late last year, I had to carefully pick and choose which movies I would go to (I know, rough time). As much as I wanted to, Shazam did not make that list...I wanted to save my money for "Avengers: Endgame"...and of course I had NO regrets. Sometime between then and now, someone... Read more →

  I finally recovered from my week in San Diego and finally put the kids back in school, so I think it's time to actually report on my first trip to the San Diego Comic Con International.  Let me say, it was a lot. Let's get the bad out of the way:  If I got bumped into even one more time, I thought I was about to lose it.  And... Read more →

  Toys Works, the Chinese company known for making 1/6 scale figures that Hot Toys can't be bothered to make, has been killing it lately.  My "Black Steel" (Netflix Luke Cage) figure is on the way and I have a number of movie version X-Men on preorder. Up next for them?  "Spiritual Leader", aka Morpheus from the Matrix. And if the... Read more →

  Is "retro" still in?  Did you feel like 35 years  is too late on some breakdancing figures?  Are you too young to even remember the movie "Breakin'" and "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo?"  Then these figures are not for you. Super7 is releasing a set of "retro" 3.75" figures of characters from Breakin' including Turbo, Ozone, and... Read more →
