#SadDestro is Sad
There are so many cool, creatative people on Twitter that it’s easy to get sucked in to reading everything. However, one of the absolute coolest Tweeters out there for toys with a sense of humor is @FakeEyes22. Honest, go check him out. He frequently does photo documentaries of Sad Destro. Just go with it.

The 11th Doctor (Doctor Who Titans)
It may surprise some of you that we still have a Suncoast in our mall. I knew this but was surprised to see a full case of Doctor Who Titans plus 2 boxes there. Without the aid of Mrs. Nerd, I pulled two, and I was rewarded with my first duplicate, an Ood. I had […]

The Silence (Doctor Who Titans)
I have to say while a bit of a retread of the Weeping Angels, I’m a big fan of the Silence.They are just creepy enough to stick with you. Once again I let Mrs. Nerd pick a Doctor Who Titans box and it paid off. She has an uncanny knack for this blind packed stuff. […]
Name That…Hoodie
For as much as people wear hoodies, there aren’t a lot of hoodie wearing action figures.
The Art of Evil by @Monsterfink
I wanted to make a post for this because the art is too cool to not spread the word about. Monsterfink has a a talent for bring bad guys to life. Lately, he’s been knocking it down with prints of group shots of the Villains and henchmen from everybody’s favorite cartoons. TMNT, MOTU, Inhumanoids. They […]

Bumblebee Girl
Lego has served up some great minifigures again in Series 10 of their blind bags. I really don’t have hope of finding a Mister Gold, but that really doesn’t bother me. I was in the store feeling through a bunch of bags looking for Medusa’s tail and was striking out. However, I did feel something […]
Name That…Alien
Sometimes I think aliens in the 50’s were more alien. They always had funny shaped heads.
Joe Con 2013: Part 4
In  retrospect, I should have put 3D Joes in Part 3. What you’ve never heard of 3D Joes? It’s an awesome website with rotating displays of a pretty good chunk of the earlier GI Joe figures. It’s a fantastic use of technology. They had the system on display and it’s pretty amazing how easy it […]
Name That…Syringe
Toys promoting gun violence? How bout toys promoting drugs? (TVFT does not condone drug use. They’re bad people.)
