By Jason Joseph at December 14, 2011 | 8:16 am | 0 Comment
I was pretty surprised to see this when I happened to stop by the website of Sideshow Collectibles to check out some sale prices I got in an email. I like to think I am on top of stuff like this, but somehow, I must have missed the boat. The Utapau Shadow Trooper is one of the coolest looking Clone Troopers in the Republic, and Sideshow was definitely smart more...

When I think of my top five favorite comic book characters of allllll of the times, Nova instantly comes to mind. It's kind of funny how that worked out, because he wasn't even on my radar until about a year ago when I happened to be walking through my favorite comic book shop (That's Entertainment in Worcester, MA) and I saw a new release for his comic that had my more...

So I don't know if I am going to make it a habit of doing video reviews for the McFarlane series of sports figures, but I just got a new camera and I figured what the hell, why not test this bad boy out? So if you're on this site and you need me to explain who Todd McFarlane is, first, shoot yourself and second, let me shoot myself for not doing my damn job. Just in more...
Mattel Unveils Video Of Subscription Voltron Toys In Action (And They Are Full Of Fail)
By Jason Joseph at July 30, 2011 | 8:31 pm | 2 Comments
So apparently the key to Voltron's heart is actually up his ass. In the video you will see below, the folks at Mattel and MattyCollector.com spend a full minute and a half jumping the shark, showing the super awesome 23" build-a-Voltron robot in the process of being transformed into a really expensive heap of plastic. This is a subscription service piece, meaning that more...

By Jason Joseph at May 22, 2011 | 9:37 pm | 0 Comment
Finally, over a year and a half after the game was released, DC Direct has released Series 1 of the Mass Effect figure series. The package reads Mass Effect 2, and the characters Commander Shepard, Thane, Grunt and Tali make up the first wave. I am pretty sure Series 2 was to have included Miranda, Mordin, Legion and Garrus, maybe Jacob? It's sad, because I was more...
