Most Requested Figures:
Ghostbusters II Vigo

mrqTN

With our Round 2 finalists chosen, it’s time to kick off Round 3. Who will lead off our final dozen? I’ll give you a hint: He was poisoned, stabbed, shot, hung, stretched, disembowled, drawn and quartered. His last words were “Death is but a door. Time is but a window. I’ll be back.” So where the heck is Vigo the Carpathian?

Vault Review: Star Wars Vintage Collection: MagnaGuard

magnTN

I was so happy with the General Grievous I bought last week that I decided he shouldn’t be the lone representative of the Vintage Collection on my shelves. So, I headed off to my local Toys R Us again to pick up another figure. This time, I was after Grievous’ bodyguard droids, the MagnaGuard, and I wasn’t disappointed.

Amusing Articulations:
Rock, Paper, Batman?

ItsAllTrue Review:
Transformers Generations Drift

driftTN

On our forums, I was just talking about how I’m not really into characters that are “badass for badass’ sake”, but then I turned around and do a Drift review. It would appear that my hypocrisy knows no bounds, but the truth is I haven’t had a chance to read a comic with Drift. I bought him because he looked cool.

Vault Review: Back to the Future Minimates – Delorean

bttfTN

Sometimes I find the unexpected on my bi-weekly visits to Toys R Us. Last week, I was surprised to see the new Minimates vehicles hanging on the pegs. The Hunter Killer from Terminator was particularly tempting, but I eventually decided to just get one. And the Back to the Future Delorean was it.

Ask Matty
September 1st Edition

askmTN

Can you clarify where the line is being drawn for 200x influence? Second heads are out, but 200x weapons, redesigns like Sorceress, and characters like Carnivus & Dactus are still safe? From the outside, this rule appears hard to follow.

Vault Review: Star Wars Vintage
Collection: General Grievous

grieTN

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!

ItsAllTrue Review:
DC Direct’s Nekron

nekTN

Though I took a pass on the Series IV figures, I knew I wasn’t done with DC Direct’s Blackest Night line. I’ve been tempted, but steered clear of picking up a Black Lantern JLA. I’m sticking to the oversized aliens not likely to get DCUC love. Nekron offers some flexibility with his size and I’ve opted to pick up DCD’s version.

Vault Review: The 11th Doctor
& Dalek Scientist 2pk

odalTN

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.

mrqTN

Another round of Most Requested is over. The selected reader requests were placed in a head-to-head vote and with nearly 2000 votes cast, the finalists going on to December have been decided. Which requests fell on deaf ears? Which requests will join our Round One winners? It’s time to find out.

DCClassics.Com:
CherryBarry Review (TRU Flash)

cherTN

We picked up the TRU Flash a few weeks ago, but I’ve been putting off his review. I just find that I don’t have a lot to say about him. Still, he needs his DCClassics.Com entry and so we’re giving him a pint-size review. Four pics, a few paragraphs, and everything you need to know about CherryBarry.

ManekochanReview:
Night Fury v2

imageTN

On a recent outing to Wal-Mart, I was surprised to discover a second wave of How to Train Your Dragon figures. Although this series contained mostly repainted versions of the previous dragons, I was stunned to see a newly sculpted Toothless figure. But would he be better than their last attempt?
