Liv Moore Pop! Vinyl

Liv Moore Pop! Vinyl

We really liked Veronica Mars. And well, we liked Walking Dead. So it seemed natural we would give iZombie a shot. Turns out we liked it. There isn’t a lot of merch out there for it, but it’s nice to see things like Pop! Vinyl of the main character Liv Moore.  If you aren’t familiar, […]

Fifth Brother Inquisitor

When it comes to Star Wars: Rebels action figures, Hasbro has been rather inconsistent in their release. The first few characters were sold within the 2015 Saga Legends assortment, either individually or in 2-packs.

Lil Bombshells Hawkgirl

Lil Bombshells Hawkgirl

So, I was maybe a little luke warm on Harley Quinn in this line. I had a slow week toy hunting, and bought a second blind can. I got Hawkgirl. Now, I really like the Hawkgirl Bombshell statue. She’s exudes a lot of fun. To start with the scale and style match Harley. You can […]

Selina Kyle Gotham Pop! Vinyl

Selina Kyle Gotham Pop! Vinyl

I know Fox’s Gotham isn’t for all the Batman fans out there. I was skeptical at first, but the show won me over. This is Jim Gordon’s story for the most part. Once you kind of put yourself in an “Elseworlds” frame of mind, you can accept it. It helps that Mrs. Nerd has enjoyed it as […]

Lil’ Bombshells Harley Quinn

Lil’ Bombshells Harley Quinn

You may have heard me review on Harley on Episode 232 of the Action Figure Blues podcast. Obviously, this will be similar, but with pictures. The Lil’ Bombshells are a vinyl mini figure take on very popular Bombshell property. I’ve came very close to getting some of the statues, but I’m not really a statue guy. […]

So there is this cute little Yorkie I follow on Facebook named Misa Minnie. She’s a smart little therapy dog. Since the Nerd household has three Yorkies, we are fans. And cute dog pictures always make me smile. One of Misa’s favorite toys is Bear Bear. Now, I spent some time looking at Bear Bear […]

Lego Astronaut

Lego Astronaut

In the late 70’s, Star Wars and NASA had cemented interest in space exploration for a generation. It is no surprise that one of the first Lego series to have Minifigures was Space. It’s also not a surprise that those figures remain as popular as the City series. Instead of releasing a plain Spaceman figure in […]

Lego Landshark

Lego Landshark

I love the Lego mini figures of people in crazy suits. Chicken suit dude, Hot Dog Guy, Panda Dude, Bumblebee Girl, Clarence Beeks. Those are the ones I seek out first. Anything else is gravy. So you know when I saw the new series, I’d have to look for the Shark Suit guy. Now I […]

Walking Dead Hospital Doors

Walking Dead Hospital Doors

I’ve been curious about the Walking Dead building set from McFarlane for a while now. I tried to get one of the figure packs at Wal-Mart recently, and well, was denied. (Documented in an AFB Podcast Red Card!) So when I saw the Hospital Door set, my curiosity finally met a price point I could […]

Batman w/Underwater Gear (Imaginext)

Batman w/Underwater Gear (Imaginext)

If there is one thing the Imaginext line has no shortage of, it has to be Batman figures. Seriously, you can go shopping all-year round and you will always find at least two versions of the Caped Crusader on the store shelves.

Catwoman w/Catcycle (Imaginext)

Catwoman w/Catcycle (Imaginext)

Given how scarce female characters tend to be in most pre-school lines, I brought this Catwoman w/Bike set home with me and now I’ll review her.

Kotobukiya ArtFX Super Powers Batman

Kotobukiya ArtFX Super Powers Batman

Alright. I don’t buy statues. I have a couple of things in my collection that might be termed statues, but I didn’t think about them that way when I bought them. However, when Scott recently reviewed the Kotobukiya ArtFX Super Powers Superman, Flash and Green Lantern on the Action Figure Blues Podcast. I found my […]

Jon Snow

Jon Snow

Even though I am an avid follower of the Game of Thrones TV series, truth is I never intended to start buying Funko’s Game of Thrones Legacy Collection figures. However, bumping into them with a nice discount usually tips the scale in their favor.

White Walker

White Walker

The undead are getting a lot of coverage in media in recent years, thanks in no small part to the groundbreaking visual effects featured in movies and TV series.

Daenerys Targaryen

Daenerys Targaryen

There are so many rich storylines on Game of Thrones, it’s hard to pick a favorite. I have to say I always find myself looking for forward to the Daenerys and Arya scenes the most. Daenerys has a story driven by birth right, revenge, and what she feels is just. It really just draws you […]

Harley Quinn & Joker (Imaginext)

Harley Quinn & Joker (Imaginext)

Harley Quinn & Joker came out in 2014 in the DC Superheroes Imaginext line, and they both are quite interesting figures to look at.

Wonder Woman & Superman (Imaginext)

Wonder Woman & Superman (Imaginext)

A thing that has been somewhat absent from the Imaginext line is female characters, but that also seems to be changing nowadays. Case in point, the other day at the store I found a 2-pack set of figures that includes Superman and Wonder Woman.

Kamen Rider Gaim – Arms Change Orange Arms Review

Kamen Rider Gaim – Arms Change Orange Arms Review

Here’s where it all comes together for Bandai’s Kamen Rider Arms change figures. Just like the show, you can pop a fruit on their shoulders and transform their armor. Yeah, it’s a gimmick, but it’s one that is done well here.   They took some effort to make the fruits fold up like they do […]

Kamen Rider Gaim – Arms Change Basic Figure

Kamen Rider Gaim – Arms Change Basic Figure

There are a number of different Kamen Rider Gaim figures. Ranging from zero articulation to Figuarts level. My original intention was Gaim was going to be my first Figurarts figure. However, the mid range “Arms Change” series figures were just too tempting. If you read Monday’s take on the show, you know that this version […]

Andalusian Horse

Andalusian Horse

After watching The Hobbit movie last year, I began looking for small ponies to display alongside some of the figures, but I had no luck. I did find, however, an Andalusian horse that I thought would work well as Shadowfax, the horse Gandalf rides in the last couple Lord of the Rings movies.
