Don't take my word for it though.  Check out the press release below!

Mezco Presents Toy Fair '19

Mezco has done it again! This year's showing at Toy Fair was incredibly strong. They have a ton of great things coming out, particularly in the One:12 Collective line. Personally, I'm a little in love with that Captain Marvel, but OMG! They're doing a Keaton Batman! I can't wait! Yes, I'm being extremely emphatic, but that's because I'm really excited about what's coming out. Take a look for yourself.


Other standouts for me are Scooby Doo, The Warriors, and The Living Dead Shining Dolls. How creepy and great does that Jack Torrance look? The twins look eerie, but they can also be written off as old fashioned style dolls. That Jack Torrance will mess you up, and it's all because of the eyebrows. A perfect example of why details matter. What Mezco reveals are you most excited for?

Mezco Toyz brings Popeye to the One:12 Collective!

That's right, Olive Oil has been drooling since she saw him and now so will you.  This isn't your childhood cartoon Popeye, but the gritty sailor come to life!  Just wait until you see how amazing this guy looks.    

The One:12 Collective Popeye – Deluxe Sailor Edition features Popeye sporting Navy whites, just as he did in the animated shorts between 1940 and 1960. Packaged neatly in a deluxe tin shaped like a spinach can, Popeye comes complete with two head portraits and a wide range of accessories including: a removable pea coat, a duffle bag with functional drawstring, a collapsible spy glass, a compass with hinged lid, two spinach cans, three different hats, and two styles of corncob pipes.

Unboxed: FanSets Harry Potter Blind Bag Pins Series 1


Matthew at NerdNewsToday and I are back with a review we have both been waiting to do. Today, we're going to be unboxing (unbagging?) the Target Exclusives Harry Potter Collectors Pins from FanSets. 

A relatively young company, FanSets has exploded in the pin markets. They have an extensive collection of pins ranging from Justice League to Firefly to Harry Potter and to the franchise that really helped them cement their spot as the go-to place for awesome pins, Star Trek. 

One of the things I love about them is their creativity. They don't just put out great products; they're really creative in their designs and execution. Like this for example. I never would have expected to see a blind bag collection for pins, but it works. It actually took me a while to find them. For weeks, every Target I went to was sold out. I got lucky. Take a look at the collection and let me know what you think.

Unboxed: Titans Vinyl Star Trek: The Next Generation "Make It So" Collection



People, I am so excited to share this collaboration between Matthew at NerdNewsToday and I. It's the Star Trek: The Next Generation "Make It So" collection from Titans. You have to see it to understand why I'm so excited, but I'll give you hint: look at how great Picard looks. I can't write about how these figures look. You need to see it to believe it. 





Am I right? What do you think?

Unboxed: Titans Vinyl Star Trek The Original Series "Where No Man Has Gone Before" Collection


Alright, people, strap in. We're about to go on an adventure with the latest collection of Titans Vinyl Figures. It's the Star Trek "Where No Man Has Gone Before" set! Not only does collection make my Trekkie heart happy just by existing, but included are Yeoman Janice Rand (forgive my butchering of her title) and Nurse Christine Chapel. While they did not get as much recognition as Uhura, they are every bit as important to the fabric of the Star Trek Universe. As for the rest of the collection, watch as Matthew at NerdNewsToday and I dive in.

You have to watch to find out.

Review: Star Trek FunEdibles Series 1





I'm still a fairly new Trekkie, so I've been trying to play catch up. I've also been getting my hands on as much Star Trek merch as I can. Enter FunEdibles from USAopoly. I saw these at Star Trek Mission last year and knew I would eventually own them. Once I did, I grabbed Matthew from NerdNewsToday, and demanded we review them. Seriously. I was most adamant about it. It was great.

Supernatural Figures Are Here (sort of)!

I swear the collectible higher-ups listen to my conversations, because I was literally talking about Supernatural merchandise yesterday, and its surprising lack of figures. There are the Funko POPs! and mini-blind bags, but they're not the same. 

Enter Entertainment Earth.

Holy Frak Dredd!

I've declared my Dredd love before but I'm gonna stand up and say it again! I love Dredd!!

Apparently I'm not the only one! I just got a drool-worthy Dredd announcement.  Mezco Toyz released pics of their new 1:12 Judge Dredd collectible. He looks like he stepped right off the pages of Mega City One.  I just want to hug him and then use him to beat up my Superman action figure.

Alfred Pennyworth - The Collectible of My Dreams



I have a toy addiction. I love them. I love them so much they're almost like a drug to me. However, since I can't afford my addiction, I like to torture myself at the end of each year, and look at all the great toys that I can't get... At least, not yet.
I never knew how much I wanted to stare at Sir Michael Caine until now

Today, I found one that made me start to feel that itch, you know, that itch that crawls over your skin and works its way into your brain and screams, "YOU MUST OWN ME!!!" I found the Hot Toys Alfred Pennyworth.


Hot Toys is known for its superior work, but something about the Alfred Pennyworth speaks to me. Maybe it's because I'm such a fan of Sir Michael Caine's work or maybe I just enjoy good craftsmanship, but dang, I want this! Look at it. It's beautiful!

I'm going to stop gushing over this and give you the details on this.

Toy Fair 2013: Mattel's got a Super Secret!

It's a crappy pic but it really is
the Superman Costume
Yesterday at Toy Fair, I got a chance to see Mattel's new movie masters line of Man of Steel Action Figures.    There were four figures on display, plus one in the packaging.  Sadly, we weren't able to take any pictures, but I'm gonna try to describe them for ya.
