It's another Friday night and I find myself in front of the computer for an end-of-the week, Mattel news release! This time it's our first look at Queen Marlena in package along with her two bios. Yep, two bios. If you remember, the SDCC & Matty versions will feature different packaging & that means two bios!
This Thor figure was one of four Marvel Universe exclusives released at last year's San Diego Comicon and is based on his appearance in Ages of Thunder. I wasn't able to get him reviewed in time for Thor week, but that's okay, because now he can be a THORsday review to help promote The Daily Thor!
I'm a little late on this news, but Mattel uploaded a half dozen pics of Swamp Thing on their Facebook page earlier today. Look, I never want to be the guy that decries things that are new or different upfront. And I'm willing to give this Swampy a try, but looking at these pics I do kinda wish Mattel had just kept it simple.
After the SDCC Rainbow Hal horror stories, I'd resolved that I wasn't going to own this particular exclusive. I was okay with that because I only marginally wanted it. But early this month, I was pointed towards Graphitti Designs' website, where it was in stock. You know the rest - marginal interest became solidified want.
With my newfound love of Steven Moffat’s Doctor Who, it was only a matter of time before my toy collecting started trending that way also. What better way to celebrate and support what you love than by buying small plastic totems? Thus: my purchase of the Eleventh Doctor and new Dalek two-pack.
Love him or hate him, Mo-Larr has joined the ranks of MOTU Classics. If we had to define sides, I'm Pro-Mo-Larr. I have to be - some of my favorite MOTU characters are giant bees, cowboys, elephant firefighters, and glowing skeletons. How could I turn away from an Eternian Dentist?
MOTU Fans can figure out a lot of things in advance. We all knew that Prince Adam would be a He-Man repaint. Some fans were certain that Orko would end up as part of a multipack convention exclusive. But Prince Adam as an accessory? I don’t know about you, but that surprised me.
