I’m a big fan of the classic Universal Monsters. Whether it was playing Castlevania, or watching great movies like The Monster Squad; I couldn’t get enough of Dracula, Frankenstein, Wolf Man, the Mummy, or the Gill-Man. So when Art Asylum released these in Minimates form, I was definitely sold.
That’s right, another Galaxy Quest article. While at a comic book convention over the weekend, I stumbled across this great model of the NSEA Protector. I knew this scaled replica existed, but I’d not seen one in person until now. With the decent price tag it was sporting, I found it impossible not to pick up.
For this most requested, I wanted to focus on one of the most prolific science fiction TV shows to not air in the late 70’s – early 80’s. But that hasn’t stopped the throngs of fans from meeting every year at conventions and swap merchandise. But the one thing missing from all their collections are official Galaxy Quest action figures.
When Jean-Paul Valley was killed off back in 2003, I thought the mantle of Azrael had died with him. How little faith I had in the cyclical nature of comics. Not only was I wrong about there being a new Azrael, but I was equally surprised by the decision of DC Direct to cast his image in plastic.
A couple weeks ago I reviewed the new War for Cybertron Optimus Prime. I had bought Bumblebee with him and meant to review him the next week. My intentions, and attention, got subverted by other toys though, but now I’ve returned to Mr. Bee before he becomes entirely obsolete.
Revoltech’s Sci-Fi series continues with two more kaiju releases this month. First up is one of the most popular and recognizable monsters in the Godzilla universe: The Thing known as Mothra, Guardian of the Earth. As a Godzilla fan, I had to have it, but I also had to see what Revoltech could possibly do with a moth.
