General Grievous (Battle Damage)
Even though Hasbro did release General Grievous more than once in the animated-style Clone Wars line, it was one of those characters I didn’t felt like paying the whole price for.
Living Dead Dolls Minis Clown
The older I get, the more I like cute and creepy stuff. I’m not sure what that says about me. So when you combine that and my love of blind box figures, I couldn’t pass by the Living Dead Dolls Minis. The first one I picked was this guy, Schitzo. This is the regular version, […]
Sheldon Cooper
Love it or hate, The Big Bang Theory has become insanely popular in our culture. While a swarm of merchandise is out there. most is for the masses and not really toy collectors. Which is a bit ironic considering the amount of swag the gang owns. Funko is helping out there with it’s BBT Mystery […]
Joker DC Mystery Mini Vinyl Figure Review
Mrs. Nerd subscribed me to Nerd Block a couple months ago and the second one struck all the right notes with me. The first thing was a really cool Darth Vader t-shirt. The second was a DC Mystery Mini blind box. While it would have been nice to get a Batman, this Joker wasn’t a […]
Merle Dixon
It took along time before I became sympathetic to the character of Merle Dixon on The Walking Dead. I’ve got a redneck streak, but it mainly involves duct tape, flannel and a love of deep fried food. I don’t carry the hatred that Merle exhibited from the very start. In the end though, Merle came […]
Phil Robertson
Well, I’m sure if you read the other Duck Dynasty figure reviews, you saw this coming. Phil is the fourth figure in the series and really one of the essential ones. Especially, if you consider he’s the one that founded Duck Commander. Appearance: Phil’s appearance is much more like Uncle Si’s. On the show, Phil […]
Dalek (Doctor Who Titans)
Exterminate! I couldn’t have the Doctor running around with at least one Dalek. I ended up with two. I was actually trying for a Tardis and a Dalek, but I’m not going to complain. I was trying to feel for something that was big and bulky in the Doctor Who Titans boxes. You can almost […]
Willie Robertson
Out of all the Duck Dynasty figures, Willie was the one I was probably least interested in. However, after obtaining the other three, I figured I should finish of the series with the CEO of Duck Commander. Appearance: This is a Willie we’ve seen a few times on the show. It’s his bluejeans with […]
Jase Robertson
I’m a lot like Jase. I often find myself distracted at work by other interests. While his are outdoor pursuits, mine involve toys. Either way, I can see a streak in him that I see in myself. Appearance: Again, like Uncle Si, I suspect the body here is reused. In this it worked out well. […]
Uncle Si
Mrs. Nerd and I are reality TV junkies. However, we don’t watch every thing out there. I was really surprised when she said she wanted to watch an episode of Duck Dynasty. Normally, her tastes don’t run to anything close to outdoors. So we watched and episode, and another episode, and another….You get the idea. […]
Destroyer Droid (Clone Wars)
Recently, I commented on how the regular Clone Wars Battle Droids tended to warm pegs at stores although, I do think that those guys will eventually sell, at the right price point, while the subject of today’s review, the Droideka, a.k.a. Destroyer Droid may be a harder sale.
Battle Droid (Clone Wars)
If I had to name one type of character that consistently warmed pegs at everywhere I went, looking for Star Wars figures, it would be the lowly CIS Battle Droid. These guys looked impressive in the Episode I trailer over ten years ago, but over time, they became a joke due to their […]
Superman & Krypto (Imaginext)
What do Superman and Iron Man have in common, other than their last names? Well, both had big budget movies released in the summer of 2013 and none of the toy-license holders could be bothered to produce decent action figures for them in the 3.75 inch scale.
Leonardo
After reviewing Donatello, it really didn’t take too much for me to go back and grab another Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle from the shelf. This time I decided to pickup the elder brother, Leonardo.
Donatello
I do remember the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles craze from the late 80’s and early 90’s. In fact, even though I was certainly not in the target age bracket for the toys, I still ended up buying some action figures of them.
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. […]
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 […]
Ood (Titans Vinyl Figure)
I don’t know when it happened, but I’m turning into a blind packed figure junkie. I just kind of dig the little ones. When I was a local store had the Doctor Who Titans figures, I decided to get one. I knew there was an Ood, which is a character Mrs. Nerd and I […]
Batman (Mego Pocket Heroes)
The Mego Pocket Heroes lines is one of those things in action figure history that you have to wonder about. It mixed DC and Marvel characters in the same 3.75″ scale. Why didn’t this line continue longer? So based on the lighter blue colors and shorter cape, this guy always reminded me of the Super […]
