By AdventureVault under Reviews on August 31st, 2010  I don’t buy a lot of Star Wars figures usually. I love Star Wars, but I’m just not as invested in it toy-wise like I am with DC or MOTU. But every once in a while I’m impressed by a figure so much that I just have to own it, and this Grievous figure is awesome! [...]
By AdventureVault under Reviews on August 27th, 2010  With my newfound love of Steven Moffat’s Doctor Who, it was only a matter of time before my toy collecting started trending that way also. What better way to celebrate and support what you love than by buying small plastic totems? Thus: my purchase of the Eleventh Doctor and new Dalek two-pack. [...]
By AdventureVault under Lego on August 20th, 2010  Following on the hugely popular success of the Lego Minifigures Series One (#8683) is the next wave of tiny awesomeness. Lego Minifigures Series 2 (#8684) is as equally diverse as the first series, but with slightly more catering towards those fans of the City theme this time out [...]
By AdventureVault under Reviews on August 17th, 2010  It’s almost impossible to think about Doctor Who and not have your mind wander to his greatest adversaries, the Daleks. So it’s no surprise that Underground Toys has already made a legion of these mutant menaces in every imaginable variation, even a WWII soldier. Wait, what? [...]
By AdventureVault under Reviews on August 13th, 2010  In 1995, Squaresoft released Chrono Trigger on the Super Nintendo, and the video gaming world was forever changed. Now, fifteen years later, Square Enix has released a set of figures based on this timeless game. The first thing that popped into my mind when I saw them: Finally! [...]
By AdventureVault under Reviews on August 10th, 2010  With the upcoming movie Trigun: Badlands Rumble, what better time to make a few figures from this space western anime series? Last week I reviewed Revoltech’s Vash the Stampede. This week I’m taking a look at the other half of the first series: Nicholas D. Wolfwood. [...]
By AdventureVault under Reviews on August 6th, 2010  With the upcoming release of the new Trigun movie: Badlands Rumble, it’s no surprise that a new set of figures were also in the works. What did surprise me, or should I say delight, is that these figures are being made by the Revoltech Company. But how does this new Vash the Stampede stack up against previous versions? [...]
By AdventureVault under Requests on August 5th, 2010  Since I’m running rampant in Noisy’s absence, I thought I’d take it upon myself to pick another obscurely cultish pick for this week’s Most Requested. This suggestion, courtesy of reader dwaltrip, may not be the most remembered classic TV show, but that doesn’t mean The Prisoner should be forgotten. [...]
By AdventureVault under Reviews on August 3rd, 2010  It’s difficult to find a decent monster toy line, much less one made up of female monsters. There was Resurrection of Monstress a couple years back that was very stylized, but other than that the market’s been sparse until now with Mattel’s new Monster High line. But is it monster enough or just Halloween Barbie? [...]
By AdventureVault under G.I. Joe on July 30th, 2010  Who thought that Tommy from 3rd Rock would actually play a convincing Cobra Commander? Not I. But I was wrong. So, after the movie was over, I went out for an action figure of the Commander in his newest duds. But none were to my liking, until now. Say hello to the new face of Cobraaaaa! [...]
By AdventureVault under Forums on July 29th, 2010  In our Green Room, forum member Dorkey has been posting links to his site’s coverage of Wonder Festival 2010 (Summer). His site is in Japanese, but the pictures speak all languages. Check out his links starting on page 18 of our Japanese Import Theatre [...]
By AdventureVault under Reviews on July 27th, 2010 In Transformers: War for Cybertron, you get to play as your favorite Transformer and fight the battle that started it all. But, if you’re old school like me, you’re probably looking to reenact that battle on your shelves too. Hasbro knows this and we’ve already got for first WFC figure: Optimus Prime.
By AdventureVault under Reviews on July 20th, 2010  When my TRU finally received the Pursuit of Cobra HISS Tank, I had to have it. My year-long wait was finally over. But there was another vehicle at TRU that day. It had a new name and a new driver, but I knew it from my childhood. I had to have the Wolf Hound too. [...]
By AdventureVault under Requests on July 15th, 2010  This week’s Most Requested has been hijacked by me yet again. It was kind of a spur of the moment decision based entirely on current internet trends and another selfish request to see a toy made that I want specifically. So this week I’m nominating the Old Spice Guy, Isaiah Mustafa. [...]
By AdventureVault under Reviews on July 13th, 2010  A little over a year ago, the IAT crew trekked to Kansas City to cover the annual G.I. Joe convention, Joe Con. During the Hasbro panel, the convention room was treated to a surprise: the unveiling of the brand new H.I.S.S. Tank. After a year, I finally got a chance to own one.
