So, did everyone get what they wanted for Christmas? Raise your hand if you asked for peace on earth, but settled for toys! It's up to me to kick off IAT’s first review of the new year and nothing says Happy New Year better than a giant radioactive pteranodon. You guessed it, Sci-Fi Revoltech #19: Rodan
If you’re a Transformers fan, one thing you can always count on is the inevitable repaint figure. Even in lines as small as the War for Cybertron, Hasbro’s able to squeeze at least one in. So to wrap up our coverage of the War for Cybertron figures, here’s my review of Cliffjumper.
The year is almost over and you wouldn’t believe how many Transformer’s the IAT crew have sitting around, still waiting to be reviewed. I blame Matty and the torrent of DC Universe Classics they’ve unleashed upon us in the last couple months. Anyways, we’re finishing up our War for Cybertron reviews with Megatron.
November just isn’t festive enough for Christmas toys so I’ve been holding back on this review for a few weeks. It’s been difficult because I like this figure almost as much as the original. So, without further ado, Sci-Fi Revoltech No. 17: Jack Skellington in Santa Suit.
One of the best episodes in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars series was Legacy of Terror. Not only was it well written and exceptionally creepy for a kid’s show, but it also introduced us to a new Geonosian warrior that Hasbro just made into a toy: The Undead Geonosian.
Taking a cue from old movie serials and Indiana Jones, the Lego Adventurer’s theme was everything I loved recreated in brick form. Now LEGO is bringing back the nostalgia with their new Pharaoh’s Quest series. First up are the two smallest sets: Scarab Attack (#7305) and Golden Staff Guardians (#7306).
I’ve come to the conclusion that the Star Wars Vintage Collection line is unnatural. I’m convinced Hasbro is using cursed voodoo plastic to make perfect little likenesses that can’t be resisted. Why else would I be tempted to buy a nobody like Wooof, or think that a Wicket figure is actually cool?
