M.A.S.K. Blind Bag Variants Available Now

The newest addition to the Energon Universe, M.AS.K., was released today, and in celebration Skybound, alongside the regular releases and variants, they are releasing blind bag variants. There are three different comics you could possibly get in the bags, only one of which is actually M.A.S.K.#1. Normally, I wouldn’t buy a blind bag but I…

The Decepticons are Stuntin On Them! G2 Menasor Preorder Now Live

I almost completely missed the G2 era of Transformers. The only portion I remember is the rerelease of the original series with the animatronic Optimus and the little kid. I never saw any of the toys on the shelves, but I also was more into TMNT around that time. If I had looked, I would…

Squadron Supreme! Hasbro Reveals Hyperion/Doctor Spectrum Two-pack

Time to start a new team! Today Hasbro has revealed their new two-pack with Hyperion and Doctor Spectrum. Hyperion previously had a figure released years back in the Hulkbuster wave(?) I think.

Comic Connoisseur: KOT AND ŽEŽELJ’S DAYS OF HATE ATTACKS WITH SHARP AND RELEVANT GENRE THRILLS

For most, comics are an escape. We flip through illustrated stories of characters who overcome great odds, evolve and and develop and all the while gaining an affinity for them. But, just like in any other medium, there are stories that make you think and tell a deeper story. DAYS OF HATE is set in…

Dark Tower Select Action Figures Up for Preorder!

I have to confess. I have not read any of the Dark Tower books. I haven’t read the Marvel Comics series. I have not seen the film with which it is associated with. To be honest, I see the name Stephen King on something and I instantly think about The Stand and the Langoliers. Perhaps…

I think most who have been following these since they were first revealed may have seen these last month when they were revealed on the Hasbro Pulse Instagram. Today they decided to send out the images to for everyone not following that account. I’m sure it’s been said before, but it is just plain awesome…

Harley Quinn 25th Anniversary Statue Up for Preorder(And Available At Your Local Comic Shop)!

I can’t believe Harley Quinn is 25 years old! I’m not going age myself and say how old I was when the episode originally aired, but I will say I’m older than Harley and younger than Batman. When I think of Harley, this is the incarnation that comes to mind. With the release of Suicide…

Marvel Legends 12 inch Wolverine Up for Preorder!

The Marvel Legends 12 inch line is a strange experiment. The figures themselves look amazing, but the price turns a lot of collectors off. I am one of them. Maybe we don’t need to get them all, but the one that can be a focal point for your collection. For most X-Men fans Wolverine is…

Cyber Monday Action Figure Deals! Marvel Legends! Transformers!

I greatly prefer Cyber Monday over Black Friday. You don’t have to stand in line, fight through crowds only to find out the item you wanted is already sold out and you can shop in your pajamas! Throughout the day I will update this page with deals I find so you can find them all…
