Daedric Warrior

Daedric Warrior

The Daedra are the main destructive force in the world of The Elder Scrolls, often characterized as daemons or dark deities, even though this Daedric Warrior is more of a foot soldier than a mastermind villain type.

Dovahkiin

Dovahkiin

The Dovahkiin  or Dragonborn, are individuals who possess the soul and blood of a dragon inside a mortal body, which is the premise that sets the uniqueness of the main character in the game.

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, […]

Robin Mystery Mini

Robin Mystery Mini

A couple of confessions. I didn’t care for most of the Arkham game designs until I started playing the games. Confession two, while I’m a Batman fan, I’ve never been a big fan of Robin. If he’s written well, he’s okay. Most of the time it seems he’s included just to have him there. To […]

The Wolf

The Wolf

It’s well know I like retro figures and cheap figures. If I find both at the same time, it’s really hard to resist. I found The Wolf from Pulp Fiction at a Tuesday Morning for $3. I almost bought both of them had I was so tickled.  As you may, remember Winston Wolf is called […]

Poison Ivy Mystery Mini

Poison Ivy Mystery Mini

I hadn’t given the Arkham series of Mystery Minis much thought until I started playing the games. Now I would have rather had Batman, but Ivy is not the worse thing to pull as a blind box. For the game, Poison Ivy is pretty scantily clad. The majority of her clothing comes from a cropped […]

Alien (Funko ReAction)

Alien (Funko ReAction)

This Alien is based off the first movie directed by Ridley Scott and even though the action figure is not quite as detailed as the screen counterpart, it does a pretty good job of capturing the characteristic traits from the H.R. Giger designs.

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 […]

Batman – Funko Mystery Mini

Batman – Funko Mystery Mini

It seems like these days, I either buy something like a Figuarts Kamen Rider or something basic like a Mystery Mini. While I like the quality and representations of the SH Figurarts line, Mystery Mini’s are fulfilling my toy hunting desires. This one is no exception. I was standing in line at Wal-Mart and saw […]

Puppet – Five Nights at Freddy’s Mystery Mini

Puppet – Five Nights at Freddy’s Mystery Mini

As if your Chuck E. Cheese style nightmares weren’t already full, Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 added a puppet. And actually, I think his Funko Mystery Mini form may be scarier than the game version. In the game, the puppet is a tall, elongated limbed thing. Here it almost reminds me of a cross between […]

Okay. I’ve never played the game Five Nights at Freddy’s. Sorry. I will one of these days. I’ve watched a couple of videos, and well, it kinda creeps me out. If you are like me and haven’t played it, it’s a horror survival game of sorts. You are a security guard at a knock off […]

Jamie Lannister (GoT Mystery Mini)

Jamie Lannister (GoT Mystery Mini)

Warning in advance. The Jamie Lannister Mystery Mini from Funko’s Game of Thrones series 2 line has some later season spoilers. Nothing major, but if you are in season 1 or 2 in viewing, proceed at your own risk. When he starts, Jamie Lannister is a but of a douche. I hated him and was […]

Ned Stark (GoT Mystery Mini)

Ned Stark (GoT Mystery Mini)

  I’m one of those people who didn’t read the books before watching Game of Thrones on HBO. The amount of promotional images and media centered around Ned Stark certainly gave the impression that Ned Stark was going to be the main protagonist of the story. The end of season one had a big twist […]

Shaggydog (GoT Mystery Mini)

Shaggydog (GoT Mystery Mini)

I have became hopelessly addicted to Game of Thrones Mystery Minis from Funko. Blind boxes normally aren’t my thing, but this one really grabbed hold. Today, I’m looking at Shaggydog. Who is Shaggydog you say? Shaggydog is Rickon Stark’s direwolf. The youngest of the Stark clan named his black canine, so it shouldn’t surprise us […]

Jon Snow (Mystery Mini)

Jon Snow (Mystery Mini)

Poor Jon Snow. I always figured he was destined for bigger things. He’s definitely a fan loved character. Following his uncle into the service he goes to serve as a “Watcher on the Wall.” Funko too the Game of Thrones license and ran with it. Legacy 6″ figures, Pop! Vinyls and Mystery Minis. I don’t […]

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.

Tyrion Lannister

Tyrion Lannister

One of the more enthralling characters from the Song of Fire and Ice books, and by extension, the Game of Thrones TV series, is Tyrion Lannister.

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 […]
