Listen to My Story...

07.28.1941 - 08.26.2026 Another great one passed us by. Peter Cullen, the legendary voice of Optimus Prime, passed away. 2026 is something else... keeps taking away legends. I'm not the biggest Transformers fan, but Transformers is part of my childhood. I remember watching the show as a kid, and Optimus Prime himself is so iconic that the Autobot followed me through the years. And while I've always been more on the Beast Wars side, Optimus Prime was the core of Optimus Primal

A cute little POP that my girlfriend got herself! Bullseye, the Target mascot, has had some pretty cool collaborations with other IPs, and this time Woody from Toy Story is the cosplay of the day. So let’s take a look at this POP, shall we? This one came out during the Toy Story 5 run, so Target is doing a solid job with the cross-promotion. Not a bobblehead Woody has a pretty distinct look, and anatomy-wise, Bullseye and Woody couldn’t be farther apart — one is a lanky class

Okay! So this weekend, Frozen 3 was officially announced at D23! We got new outfits, concept art, possible story details… and a true villain reveal? Yes! The last time we heard anything substantial about Frozen 3 was at D23 2024, and even then it was mostly just “we’re working hard on it.” This year, though, they actually delivered. We got a full-blown teaser trailer (even if it hasn’t been officially released to the public yet) and a sneak peek at one of Elsa’s new outfits.

With all the Stitch POPs we've collected over the years, we finally have a Lilo in the mix! And it's the most standard, classic, accurate Lilo POP that one needs in their Lilo & Stitch collection, for sure. She found it at a convention we attended, and I just had to get it for her! So this one, I'm pretty excited to review. So let's get to it then! That Stitch Elvis looks interesting. Not sure if Scrump is something my Girlfriend would want, though. Not a bobblehead Lilo has

Another Disney “princess” that doesn’t get the credit she deserves! And another POP that my girlfriend got for herself — I’m glad she did. She hardly spoils herself, so seeing her treat herself is always nice. But let’s go ahead and take a look at this POP and see how it turned out, shall we? A very small series with Quasimodo and Esmeralda with Djali. I think my Girlfriend is just going to stay with Esmeralda. Not a bobblehead! Esmeralda has a few outfits throughout the movi

Last Time on VR Troopers... It's been some time, right? But our Little Journalist isn't going to leave 2026 without some bomb peril that only she can really pull off. She doesn't have much time left, but she has all the time in the world, right? SantanaWind definitely is an artist I am honored to have worked with again. They were pretty happy to join in adding more to Kaitlin Star's shenanigans in her endeavor to get her on the front page. All in all, the afternoon setting, t

Lightning vs Elsa - Round Two It's not exactly Christmas in July or anything, but I am here to say goodbye to July with just a few random DiDs. A few of these characters have tickled my fancy one way or another, so they will be featured. As for y'all, enjoy! That strap in between--I don't think, as far as I've read, Emp EVER addresses when she gets one. Hahah noobs. Gag-talk fluent, Ms. Powers is! Ya know, she's had a ton of gag experience throughout her series. It's amazing,

This is my Girlfriend's POP! Her Disney characters vary from the obscure to the popular Disney properties. I'd definitely say that Oliver & Company was one of those Disney movies that belongs in the obscure category since not a lot of folks talk about it. Glad they are getting some POPs because this movie is part of Disney's footnote within the animated media. So let's take a look at how Dodger w/ Oliver POP came out, shall we? There are only two in this set, and they came in

Except for the Zords (which I'm still holding out hope they are going to release), all the Zeo Rangers are here! So let's see how the Pink Ranger fares compared to her fellow Rangers in POP form, eh? The last of the set! Saving the best for last? Not a bobblehead It was always going to be hard shoes to fill when you have to step up after the 90s-every-boy’s-crush, Kimberly Hart. And it wasn’t just the looks that made her special — Kimberly actually had a real character arc, g

Oh, yes. Rocky DeSantos. The second Red and second Blue Ranger of the MMPR era (I don't tend to count the Alien Rangers). Let's see what his POP Zeo Ranger Blue looks like. Let's go! Second to the last one of this crew! So far, I've liked this set. Not a Bobblehead Rocky had the daunting task of taking over as the Red Ranger after Jason. Then, when he became the Blue Ranger for the Zeo team, he had to live up to Billy’s legacy in that color. Hate to say it, but Rocky was neve

Continuing the set! This time we’re going with Zeo’s Yellow Ranger: Tanya Sloan. I’m really excited to review this one because the promotional images immediately caught my attention with that pose. So without further delay, let’s get into it! No Zords or baddies for this set either. No gonna say that's bumming since my wallet isn't going to take an extra hit, but I always like Zord POPs. Not a bobblehead. Unfortunately, Tanya Sloan isn’t a Ranger I’m too familiar with. After

The Green Zeo Ranger is here! Let's review the next addition to the Zeo Ranger team, shall we? It’s a bit odd seeing this lineup without Zeo Ranger Red, but he was actually released a year earlier as part of the Tommy Oliver wave. Not a bobblehead Tommy Oliver’s legendary run as the Green Ranger elevated that color to a whole new level. This Green Ranger, however, isn’t Tommy — it’s Adam Park, the former Black Ranger. When the team upgraded to the new Zeo Crystals, the color

Now we're getting into the Zeo Ranger POPs! I knew I had to get the other Zeos thanks to the release of Zeo Ranger Red! So without further ado, let's take a look at the first one I'm going to review: the Sixth Ranger of Power Rangers Zeo, Zeo Ranger Gold! Yes, it's a good-looking set. The colors all got shook up too, so there's no longer any Black Ranger, though there is this guy, the Gold Ranger! First for Power Rangers (not sure if it's the same case for the Sentai counterp

Bear with me! This is going to be one of those rare posts where I'm not reviewing POPs, but more or less throwing out a what if Funko dished out some POPs that I've been wishing for? So, yeah... I guess it's kind of a wishlist. So with that intro, let's begin. Movie version?! Now we've gotten a POP Silver Centurion before, but there are either weird gimmicks or they are comic book covers, and I don't typically like those. I just want a plain ole Silver Centurion, posed in som

Alright! Another Chalice Collectibles snag, and of course, it's another Vegeta! This one is something I feel like is going to make my 2026 list! I'll explain more as we go through the review. So without any more delay, let's take a look at this POP! Of course, a Dragon Ball Super POP. Pretty sure I'm going to skip this wave unless more exclusives from this wave aren't pictured. Not a bobblehead Vegeta started wearing armor again in Super, and honestly, it’s my favorite look f

Yes, another Vegeta POP! This time it’s the Prince of all Saiyans getting ready to unleash his powerful Galick Gun! Pretty excited to review this one, so let’s dive right in. This is a Challice Collectibles exclusive. The more I collect Dragon Ball POPs, the more I realize how many goodies they have! Not a bobblehead That signature hair of his is easily handled by Funko these days! Vegeta’s Galick Gun was the first signature Ki blast I ever saw him use. That iconic standoff w

Arlens & The Victorious Vixens Another one of these, eh? Yes! That's right! It's July! It's one of those TuTs that focuses on my personal top gals... my Main 4, to be exact. And while the previous installment with 'Personal' includes other gals, this time around, I'll keep it exclusive, which isn't a bad thing at all. I'm sure no one is complaining. So, celebrating July, let's get into the Vixens, shall we? @renemicheletti Jessica Drew is the one gal that will get a lot of at

Supergirl's New Fate It's a special month for DC! It's a special time for the Woman of Tomorrow! So in celebration of DCU, let's go ahead and take a look at some of the DC DiDs' finest moments, shall we? @deckenz Yes. It's because of this gal we are celebrating DC this month. Such a spunky gal, eh? @Yes-I-DiD I highly doubt any of these are going to happen in the movie, but we know for damn sure that after it comes out, we are going to get a lot more interpretation on how Sup

Now, the Chase version of Vegito! A Super Saiyan Chase. When they announce a Saiyan character with an SSJ Chase POP, if I like that character, I HAVE to get that version. Luckily, we have ways to retrieve the chase other than hoping and feeling. I'll get into that. For now, let's review SSJ Vegito! I absolutely love that orange backdrop for the boxes. A tradition in Dragonball POPs. Not a Bobblehead Putting an SSJ version as a chase variant is rough. It almost feels unfair be

It’s not Experiment 626 for June 26th — today we have Experiment 151, aka Babyfier! Yes, it’s one of Stitch’s siblings, and we’re so happy to finally be rolling out our collection of these Experiments. With Funko announcing more of them, it only makes sense to get things started sooner rather than later. So without further ado, here’s Babyfier in POP form! Let’s go! This one is a Hot Topic exclusive, and yes, Babyfier is not listed in this wave. This is a rare one, for lack o
