Figma: Frozen's Elsa (2.0)
Ah, yes! It's the #Figma Elsa that I wanted so bad way back when! Over the years, I have gone through some love-and-hate with this action figure. Well, without going too much in the intro, let's get into Figma Elsa's review 2.0! Elsa's box is definitely the biggest and widest Figma box I have come across so far. It's actually comedic that Figma had to accommodate this size due to Elsa's 'accessories'. Though is it justified? Clearly, I have already opened the figure and taken

Collection: Wishlist
It's kind of a dry spell with toy reviews, isn't it? While there are some things that are coming, for now, we're going to just go with speculations, wants, and absolute need. In this post, I will list the characters that I desire to be in action figure form and I will also get some insight on what can make them better as an action figure. SO, with that said, let's just get on with the wishlist! Terra Branford: Playarts Kai/Bring Arts Shouldn't it be obvious that I would be wa

Masterless: The Game Room VI
Time for a "Game Room" revelation. You know, it's been a LONG time since I posted one of these. In fact, I haven't posted one on this blog at all. But before some changes happen I wanted to at least 'record' what the 6th iteration of #Game_Room looks like. So without further adieu, let me just go ahead and post what GR MK VI looks like. I'll try my best and talk about the areas and or what not. But let's just let the pictures do most of the talking. Basically that's my couch.

Figma (Toy News): FGO Miyamato Musashi/Saber
It's been some time since I got a #Figma action figure and honestly, I have to be a bit of a conservative with my collecting hobby at the moment. But having FuRyu Musashi in my collection, it really made me fall in love with the Fate Grand Order version of Miyamato Musashi (might share some art of her in the future). The #FuRyu figurine seems to be missing a layer of Musashi's clothing? Seems to add more colors to her since I always thought that Musashi was a bit more simple

Rock Candy: Elsa (Wreck-it-Ralph 2)
I swear Elsa merchandise are on a dry season. We get a few here and there but I'm going to take a wild guess this all has to do with the wind up for Frozen 2. But I did manage to find a Rock Candy Elsa based on her appearance in Ralph Breaks the Internet. Without delay, let's jump right in to the review and see if the Snow Queen is worth it or not. I do find myself purchasing a Rock Candy here and there. They typically do female characters and they are mostly known for their

Amazing Yamaguchi: Psylocke
Oh you didn't know? I'm into articulation too as well as aesthetically pleasing action figures, so here we are with the Amazing Yamaguchi: Psylocke that I have had my eyes on for a while! This is my introduction to the toy series which has gained quite a following within the community of Toy Collectors I dabble with. Let's get right into the toy review and check her out! It has been some time since I found myself messing with a Revoltech action figure. I mean a long time. Fun

Mezco ONE:12 Iron Man
This is my ver first Mezco One:12 Collectible and of course it has to be Iron Man himself! This was an action figure that has been in my preorder cart for a LONG time and there was actually a time when I took it out of my cart because I wasn't sure if I could pay that price for another Iron Man figure and with a company I am not familiar with. But after watching reviews from Action Figure Enthusiasts such as Fwoosh and ShartimusPrime, I was sold. So without further adieu, her

Battle damaged, worn out, and a bit drained from the past year's challenges means temptation to just call it quits is higher than ever, however brush it all off! Get some enhancement and replacements if need be because this is 2019! Needless to say... HAPPY NEW YEARS! So with the new year right here and right now, what do we have to look forward to? PLENTY OF THINGS! Let's just briefly go over some of them (at least the ones that are in my crosshair). Action Figures Oh boy! T

Toy News: Preorders
If the cover for the post didn't give it away, then I don't know what else to say. YES, this is all about what I have preordered from BigBadToyStore! A place that takes practically a ton of my hard earned money. Without further adieu, let's just jump right into the goodies that I have planned for my #GameRoom! The Pinkie Pie Bishoujo has been in my sights for some time now along with the other Equestria Girls that are on their way into Bishoujo form. It's only quite recently

Fwoosh Updates (Mostly Marvel Legends for me)
I watch Fwoosh's toy news more than his reviews. He is pretty entertaining! I won't spend too much time recapping his video but some of the things I really think I want are: #Necca Ninja Turtles (all of them; they're actually pretty cheap). #Figma D.VA, which I already preordered! #Marvel_Legends Wendigo #BAF with .... of course MORE Wolverine! X-Force Logan, please? Please!? At any rate, that's about it for here. Again, just watch his videos to get more info. But that's it f

Playarts KAI: Terra Branford FFVI/Dissidia NT
Oh man! Been waiting for this action figure for a LONG time! Finally I got the chance to pose her around and take pics! So here we are with Playarts Kai's Terra Branford as she appears in Dissidia NT (her character design is of course, highly inspired by Yoshitaka Amano's original design). I won't delay! Let's get on with the toy review! Marketed as a Dissidia action figure, this #Playarts_Kai of Terra fits the mold of your typical packaging when it comes to this toy line. It

Bring Arts: YoRHa Unit 2B
This figure has been on my sights for a long time. I preordered this action figure because of my love for the Nier Automata game for #ps4, and yes, it's finally here! As a new toy line made by Square Enix, does it help the company with their endeavor to become gods? Let's find out! Without further adieu, here is Bring Arts 2B! Again, a brand new toy line from Square Enix but with a box reminiscent of their days in Play Arts. And I mislead, it's not just a 2B figure, it also h

Figma: Jeanne D'Arc (Fate Grand Order)
From the Ruler class of the Fate Grand Order series, Jeanne D'Arc is another awesome looking character that mixes all types of fan service in one body. Then again, the entire Fate series could be seen as a mix of different ways to satisfy some serious fandom of all genres. With all that said, here's Jeanne D'Arc in her #Figma form! I preordered this a LONG time ago. Let's see if this figure is indeed a satisfaction for what Figma Jeanne D'Arc is supposed to represent. While I

Figma: Tracer
Another Overwatch merchandise! No, I haven't played the game yet, I swear! But when I see something I think looks cool, I Just have to get them, so here I am with a Figma Tracer in my collection. So let's get right in the review! This is obviously my first #Figma review in this blog but definitely will not be my last. So as with all imports I have owned, as with all Figmas I have owned, the box is always as informative as one would like. Window box that clearly shows most of

Funko POP: Sombra (Hot Topic Exclusive)
Here we are with another addition of #POP! Featuring POP Sombra from the popular Overwatch game! I don't know much about the game; I suppose I get the grand idea, but little details, I do not. I've watched videos here and there; I love the Widowmaker and Sombra videos the best. One thing I have to say is that the character designs really appeal to me; and no, not just the females, but just overall. So I was compelled to start my Overwatch hunt with a POP Sombra! Let's check h

Playarts Kai: Noctis Lucis Caelum
The first #Playarts_Kai review of the year and who better pave the way (Um, Terra?) than the Prince of Insomnia himself, Noctis Lucis Caelum! Been waiting for this figure since late last year; this actually came out some time back but waited a little bit to get my piece and I'm glad I did since the reissue seems to have fixed some of the flaws I was seeing in the first batch. At any rate, let's get into the review. As with all of my reviews on this blog, let's take a look at

Marvel Legends Sasquatch BAF: Domino
The other figure from this wave I was highly anticipating. Yes, it seems that I just want to grab 90% of the female figures that comes out. There's a good reason, of course. At any rate, let's get the Marvel Legends Domino reviewed! We can already see my pet peeve with Hasbro with just the box alone. Though at least she comes with two guns so she's not completely bare. Though it's kind of funny that the BAF piece is almost as big as her--seriously, it is. As for the side art,

Hot Toys: Iron Man Mark VI (DieCast Edition)
My first Hot Toy review on this blog! Right off the get go I want to point out that these reviews are mostly just all about letting the pictures do the work since it's really hard to do the figure justice just with words. But obviously I'll be putting my opinion as well as geeking out with how awesome this figure is! With that said, let's just get right into the review of Hot Toys Iron Man Mark VI Die Cast Edition. I don't normally put a big picture of boxes but Hot Toys boxe

2017 Highlights
(Picture editing courtesy of #photogrid) I have done these posts before in my previous blog. To start things right in my new domain, I might as well talk about what 2017 brought me this year! Now I did a quick break down of what puts these figures above the list: Accuracy: Did this figure capture the likeness of the source material? Price: Regardless of the price paid, did it meet its overhead price? Enough bells and whistles to justify its price tag? Availability: How rare i
