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?
As a general rule, we don't include many MOTU characters in this column because Mattel promises us the complete roster. That means we'd just be asking to move them up on the schedule. But there's a movment out there for a MOTU character likely not on Mattel's roll call... "Blonde Bikini" Teela.
Zatanna has been a favorite of mine since I was a wee tot. Her origin is one of the first things I ever read. And I don't mean comics, I mean out of everything. As a toy collector, a good Zatanna has been a long unfulfilled wish - she's been cursed with bad figure after worse figure. I had my fingers crossed for this one.
It's been quiet on the Outer Space Men front lately, but things are kicking into high gear this week! The Four Horsemen have posted news of a new variant wave at FourHorsemen.Biz just in time for the holidays: the Galactic Holiday Edition! And, at long last, the regular versions are getting ready to ship!
It’s Christmas time, and you know what that means: Lego Minifigures Series 3 (#8803)! Just in time to be the perfect stocking stuffers, this 3rd release has a little something for everyone. But this time around it’s going to be a little more difficult to find the specific ones you want.
On Facebook today, Mattel showed us our first packaged pics of DCUC Wave 16. I was expecting this delayed wave to be in the Super Power packaging (with buttons!), but it now serves as our first look at the 2011 packaging - the nice part? It's bigger! Plus, some early TRU finds of that exclusive Renegade after all.
Well, my long search is at an end. After months of making the rounds between my local Wal-Marts, Toys R Us, and Target, I finally found a Transformers: War for Cybertron Soundwave. It’s been a very long time since I’ve had to hunt for a figure that hard, but lucky for me, I think it was worth it.
