The Age of Apocalypse X-men storyline that took over Marvel during the summer of 1995 is probably my favorite X-men period of all time. It gave a fresh perspective on these characters in a world without Xavier. It introduced a lot of awesome versions of characters, some, who are still active today in comics. One…

Marvel Legends Legendary Rider Series Professor X with Hoverchair Images & Impressions
I’m so excited to finally have this! When he was announced last year, I knew immediately I wanted it and that I did not want to wait. Well, the wait is over and it was worth it. I didn’t even wait until I got home to crack it open. The chair is fairly simple to…
Marvel Legends SP//dr Wave Elektra Images & Impressions
I’ve been playing catch up with most of this wave. I picked up Scarlet Spider and Doctor Octopus pretty early and most of the rest of this wave during Walgreens Marvel Legends sale last month. A buddy of mine actually bought this figure for me. Paid him 15 bucks for it. Pretty good deal for…
Marvel Legends Sp//dr Wave Cloak & Dagger Images and Impressions
Cloak and Dagger have always been one of the cooler duos in comics. First appearing in Peter Parker, The Spectacular Spider-Man #64, they initially battled against Spider-Man when he tried to come between them and a man they were determined to kill. These figures of the duo are pretty simple, but they capture the spirit…
Transformers War for Cybertron: Siege Sixgun Images & Impressions
I wasn’t too sure about Sixgun initially. He’s basically a parts-former, meaning he does not transform like traditional Transformers. Actually, when you think about it, he’s pretty much a G1 Transformer. A super simple transformation, but it looks so cool you can overlook it. I wanted Sixgun because I wanted to put him on the…
Transformers Siege: War For Cybertron Chromia Images & Impressions
I’m kind of excited to have Chromia in my collection now. She is my first fembot. This is her second mass release in the Generations line. The last was part of the Thrilling 30 wave of figures. I have been meaning to pick that figure up because I like having the motorcycle Transformers. Chromia uses…
Walgreens Exclusive DC Multiverse Bizarro Images & Impressions
This is the first DC Multiverse figure I have ever purchased. As a whole I don’t have much interest in the line, but when I saw this figure randomly in a Walgreens, I had to get it. No, that is not a packaging defect. He is meant to be packaged backwards! The downside to this…
Marvel Legends M’baku Wave T’chaka Images & Impressions
I am so far behind on my Images & Impressions post that it not even funny. Lately all I’ve done is post in package photos of new acquisitions to Instagram. Time to get caught up. I think I’ll start with a recent purchase, Marvel Legends T’chaka. When I saw images of King T’chaka last year,…
Marvel Legends Archangel Ver. 2 Images and Impressions
As a general rule, i only buy one of a figure. I don’t really care about keeping figures in packaging because these things are meant to enjoyed, so i don’t need a double to resell later. Sometimes though, improvements are made to a figure i have that make a new purchase seem like a legit…
Marvel Legends Lizard Wave Mysterio Images & Impressions
Hasbro has really inundated us with great figures this year. It not a bad thing, per se, but it makes getting everything you want for your collection harder if you want everything Hasbro is putting out. When this wave first came out, I believe I was focused on getting all of the first wave of…
