Name That…It’s in the Bag

Name That…It’s in the Bag

I actually had to look through the previous ones to see if I’d done this one before.  Body bag perhaps? Perhaps not?

Name That…Bed Head

Name That…Bed Head

I have to say I would have no where to start with this shadow. It really looks quite a bit different than the actual figure.

The Mummy (Toys R Us Exclusive)

The Mummy (Toys R Us Exclusive)

I have a thing for Mummies. I don’t know why. I’ve never seen a famous one up close. I’m not from Egypt. That said, I think in my mind the “classic movie” Mummy is one of the most exotic monsters in terrestrial filmdom. I grew up in Northern Michigan with lots of snow, trees, and […]

Bust Some Punks – “The Good Guys” Review

Bust Some Punks – “The Good Guys” Review

Every week their are two shows that cause some controversy in the Nerd household. The first is on Tuesday and is Glee. Mrs. Nerd loves the show. The plethora of Eighties songs has helped fuel this I suspect. It’s not that I hate the show, but I put up a protest mainly to keep my […]

Rosco P. Coltrane – Dukes of Hazzard (Mego)

Rosco P. Coltrane – Dukes of Hazzard (Mego)

I know Rosco seems like an odd figure to be the first of a line to review on TVFT. He’s not one of the heroes, and probably not the best in the line. Well, there’s no probably, he’s not the best in the line. For those that don’t know, Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane was the […]

Name That…Tiny Legged Guy

Name That…Tiny Legged Guy

This figure is all over the map on proportions. Is it cause he really looks that way or is he just a bad figure?

Yes, I know it’s a scythe not a sigh. It’s a play on words.

Snow Serpent (Cobra)

Snow Serpent (Cobra)

I’ve always loved cold weather action figures. It might have something to do with the fact that I grew up above the “Brigde” in Michigan. Living on Lake Superior, I saw my share of snow. That’s probably why I could relate to figure like the Hoth Han Solo and the original Snowjob. A setting of […]
