Yes, I'm getting a little behind on my reviews, but sometimes the stars must be in alignment, there must be a full moon, and yes, there has to be time to write these things.  So it came time to do another review and I was just about to do "J" from Men In Black 3, but decided to review Cyborg instead. If you're not following DC comics,... Read more →

Hasbro and Marvel.com today released new pictures of the Marvel Legends prototypes for Blade and The Punisher.  Both will be available tentatively August 2012.  As hinted by the card art, expect them to be a running change, similar to Piledriver and Thunderball from the previous wave.  Stay tuned for more information as it's...

According to several news sources, most notably Variety magazine, the new G.I. Joe movie will be delayed until March 29, 2013.  The reason given is that the studio wanted to take the time to convert the movie to 3D.

Cartoon Network got around to playing additional new episodes of the new Thundercats series, but unfortunately it was too little, too late!  The action figures that showed up on store shelves last fall are now dropping down to clearance prices, which does not bode well for the line.   It all evens out in the end.  I picked up Lion-O and...

So pics of the new Marvel Universe waves have started to make their way around on the internet.  I'm not sure who the first source was (most likely Hasbro marketing) but thank you!  Check out the new Marvel Universe figures coming out later this year.  Needless to say, I'll probably be picking these up.  Let me know if you would like to...

Okay, first things first, I'm a pretty big Star Wars fan.  I have seen the original trilogy in theaters as a boy, I have moderately enjoyed the "Special Edition" effects, and I have tolerated the second trilogy.  But all-in-all, it has been a pretty great experience.  So when the original trilogy came out on VHS tape, I was one of the...
