Undead Geonosian
Hasbro released the Undead Geonosian I’m reviewing today late in 2010, and the figure was inspired by the Legacy Of Terror episode that aired about midway of the second season of the show.
Corporal Dwayne Hicks
My more recent NECA purchase is based on a character from one of my favorite movies ever, James Cameron’s Aliens. Of course, I am talking about Corporal Dwayne Hicks.
Name That…Dusty Figure
The cool thing about these shadow pictures? I don’t have to dust the figure before taking them.
Dark Threat Hydra Soldier
Also known as the Deluxe Set Hydra Soldier, this figure was part of the toy line made by Hasbro for the movie Captain America: The First Avenger.
Gandalf (6 inch)
To finish off this batch of 6-inch action figure reviews, today it is the turn of Gandalf the Gray to be put under the spotlight.
Name That…Too Sexy
This is my pose for the 2015 Action Figure Blues Podcast Charity Swimsuit Calendar.
AIM Soldier
If I had to name one character from the Marvel Universe toy line I actively avoided to purchase for years, it would be hard not to mention the 2010 AIM Soldier.

Clone Trooper Draa
Draa was one of the Clone Troopers serving on Geonosis under Clone Commander Gree and Jedi General Luminara Unduli. Draa first appeared in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars second season episode Weapons Factory, although he was never referred to by name during the episode.
Thorin Oakenshield (6 inch)
One thing I find really interesting about the figures made by The Bridge Direct is that each character scupt is the exact same regardless of scale, and then blown up or shrinked down for each line segment.
Ghost Rider (Redux)
I have never read a Ghost Rider comic. My exposure to the character is mostly limited to the 200X movies and the rare cameo on the few Marvel Comics titles I read sporadically.
Tauriel (6 inch)
Since The Bridge Direct delayed the release of the second wave of 4-inch action figures for The Hobbit, I went back and tracked a few of the 6-inch ones. The one I’ll be reviewing today is Tauriel.
