U.S. AIRMAN WAR HEROES – WORLD WAR II (*NOT* LION ROCK) Okay, let’s have a history lesson. But, like, not the sort of history lesson you might expect from a review with “WWII” in its title. I mean, yeah, sure, that’s very important history and all. Especially now. But, it’s, like, not my expertise? And ..read more

NIGHTWING BATMAN ’66 (McFARLANE TOYS) Perhaps the most recurring moment of “didn’t see that coming” for me as of late has been the successes of McFarlane Toys with their handle on the DC license. I mean, yeah, they had a rocky start, and there are still plenty of very iffy choices abound, but there’s also ..read more

BLACKLASH IRON MAN (TOY BIZ) Alright, we’ll be back with the Toy Biz Marvel! Look, it’s kind of my comfort zone right now, so I’m sticking with it. I’m back with the Iron Man line, patterned on the cartoon from the ’90s. The show’s first season built a classic cartoon roster of recurring villains out of ..read more

GREEDO STAR WARS: POWER OF THE FORCE (HASBRO) Okay, here we are at the end of the week. We made it, you guys! Good for us! As a reward to myself, you know what I gonna do? I’m gonna review a Power of the Force figure. You know, as a little treat. Yeah, that’s the ticket.  ..read more

MIGHTY MORPHIN “METALLIC” BLUE RANGER POWER RANGERS: LIGHTNING COLLECTION (HASBRO) There’s never been a *ton* of Power Rangers coverage here, but there certainly used to be more than there has been recently. A lot of that lies with Hasbro’s Lightning Collection sort of fizzling out last year, leaving the brand a bit dead in the water ..read more

CLIFFJUMPER TRANSFORMERS: MISSING LINK (TAKARA) I haven’t done any Transformers reviews since back in November, but it’s okay, because they’re coming back around again! Last year saw the launch of Takara’s Missing Link branding, which sort of takes Mattel’s Masters of the Universe Origins approach of “vintage style figure with modern engineering” and applies to TFs, giving ..read more

PLASTIC MAN DC MULTIVERSE (McFARLANE) It would seem I haven’t reviewed a single Plastic Man figure here on the site since my first year, where I had a veritable surplus of a whole two of them. That’s quite a hiatus, huh? I blame my need to really project that Elongated Man-stan site energy. Is that ..read more

IRON MAN — HYDRO ARMOR IRON MAN (TOY BIZ) “When the power of Iron Man is not sufficient to meet the needs of a given situation, the genius of Tony Stark compensates – by creating specialty suits of armor to get the job done! Iron Man’s Hydro Armor is designed to withstand the enormous pressure ..read more

NURSE CHAPEL STAR TREK (PLAYMATES) Okay, we’re doing this Star Trek thing! One! More! Time! …You know, for now, at least. Today’s subject is Majel Barrett, Gene Roddenberry’s second wife, and a central piece of Trek since the very beginning. Originally appearing as Pike’s “Number One” in the unaired pilot “The Cage,” Barrett’s role as ..read more

SUPERMAN — 1978 DC MULTIVERSE (McFARLANE TOYS) Oh man, two whole Superman reviews, in the same week? That’s crazy, right? Well, maybe not so much, I guess. I do like Superman, so I have a few of them shuffling around. Also, I had the DCUC one on the schedule before I even knew when I’d be ..read more
