Bishop
The 90’s saw the inception of several antihero type characters in comics, many of which cultivated a definite anti-authority vibe to them. One such character is Bishop, a time traveling enforcer that came back to the late 20th century from a dystopian future.
Beast (Marvel Infinite Series)
Dr. Hank McCoy, a.k.a. Beast is one of the original students enrolled in the Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters,
Punisher (Diamond Select Gallery Statue)
Have you all heard Punisher is getting his own Netflix series? Ha. I know you have. It will be here November 17th. This is of course spinning off of his appearance in the Daredevil series. Which brings us to this point. Earlier in the year, Diamond Select solicited pre-orders for statues in their Gallery […]
Cannon Strike (Mega Bloks)
Mega Bloks was granted the license to produce sets based off the Assassin’s Creed games developed by Ubi Soft until a couple years ago, up to Assassin’s Creed: Unity.
Da Vinci’s Flying Machine (Mega Bloks)
A couple years ago, Mega Bloks tried their hand with the Assassin’s Creed license, producing a number of building block sets inspired by the videogames developed by Ubi Soft.
Engineernerd’s Top 5 Universal Monsters
So my friend I See Robots (ISR) put out a recent episode of the Toys R Us Report Podcast with his Top 5 Universal Monsters. Now, by now, ISR realizes I will always have a different opinion of his top five lists. Maybe it’s Midwest vs West Coast. I think we know we are going […]
Altaïr (NECA Player Select)
This version of Altaïr was part of NECA’s Player Select line from late 2008 and is made in a 7-inch scale. It depicts the player character from the first Assassin’s Creed game, developed by Ubi Soft.
Ares (Collect and Connect)
It is a deviously crafty move on the part of Mattel to make the main antagonist from the successful Wonder Woman movie available as the Collect & Connect bonus figure in the corresponding DC Multiverse assortment,
Wonder Woman (with Cloak)
So, Wonder Woman. A surprisingly good movie released by Warner in 2017 and of course, Mattel has the license to make toys based on this movie.
Queen Hippolyta
Hippolyta is a major character at the beginning of the film as played by actress Connie Nielsen, and this action figure depicts her in a very regal outfit consisting mostly of a long cloak worn over a very ornate suit of Amazonian armor.
Steve Trevor
I find it odd that after decades of hearing from toy makers that action figures based on female characters don’t sell as well as those based on male characters, Mattel decided to go for an almost entirely female selection for the Wonder Woman movie wave within the DC Multiverse line.
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
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.
Original Comic Book Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
I had not realized how long Playmates has been producing TMNT figures since the re-launch of the franchise via the Nickelodeon cartoon, but the figures I’ll be reviewing today were released as part of the 11th wave of figures in 2014.
Arno Dorian (McFarlane Master Assassin Outfit)
Today I’ll be reviewing the Arno Dorian figure in his McFarlane-designed Master Assassin Outfit, from the Assassin’s Creed: Unity game developed by Ubisoft.
Jyn Erso (Eadu)
Even before seeing the Rogue One: A Star Wars Story movie, I was quite excited about getting new toys associated with it, and one of the first I bought is this Sergeant Jyn Erso (Eadu) figure, from Hasbro’s basic 3.75-inch line.
Lady Deadpool
A couple years back, in comics, the ever-popular Deadpool got into interdimensional travel, where he found slightly different versions of himself; one such incarnation had a complete set of XX chromosomes.
Armored Spider-Man
Apparently, Spider-Man has become one of those superheroes that genuinely can boast of a plethora of suits for every occasion.
Spider-Man Noir
Back in 2009, Marvel Comics developed an alternative continuity for some of their titles, combining elements of film noir and pulp fiction into what they called the Marvel Noir Universe.
Marvel Legends Walgreen’s Punisher
Truth be told. I should have wrote this before I opened the One:12 Collective Punisher. I didn’t. I’m sorry for that, because they are the same scale there I want to compare them. Which really isn’t fair since there is a 3x price differential. What I do like about this figure is that it is […]
