Marvel Legends: Storm (Vintage Collection)
A #Marvel_Legends this early into 2021? Yes! Storm is a pretty prominent X-Men character and honestly, I adore her in a lot of the stories she's in! So, without further adieu, let's get on with the review! Wow, first time in my page that I am featuring #Hasbro's "Vintage Marvel Legends" line! I love that Hasbro does this even if this is the first one I managed to have in my collection. It's definitely reminiscent of the #Toybiz days, which I had a lot of fond memories with.

2020 Highlights: Action Figures & Toys
A lot of things changed in #2020 when it comes to my collecting endeavors. Right off the get-go, I didn't spend as many resources this year as I did in 2019. It's pretty obvious that #Marvel_Legends took a backseat this year and #POP definitely became an abundance within my collection. Needless to say, there are a few things that came to my game room that is definitely worth pointing out. But let's get some 'rules' out of the way. Accuracy: Did this figure capture the likenes

Marvel Legends: MCU White Widow (Natasha Romanoff)
Another #Marvel_Legends! What a shock! But, yes, even if #2020 means #hasbro is down in appearance in my gallery that doesn't mean they're disappearing. That, and I'm into some Natasha Romanoff even if in all white. Let's get to the review then, shall we? The box reveals it all. It's a deluxe Marvel Legends action figure, no #BAF, and full of other stuff to make it worth it for collectors. It's got the premium price to go along with that fancy box with all the nuts and bolts

Marvel Legends Venompool BAF: Phage
Yes, this is a #Marvel_Legends review. Yes, that is surprising. But I did mention that I had planned on getting this guy this year. So here we are. So without any delays, let's take a look at one of Venom's many offpsrings! #Hasbro does do a good job ensuring that Avengers, X-Men, Spider-Man, and Venom all have different and recognizable boxes for each respected wave. Artwork for the side of the box still looks amazing so I'm glad about that. There are days when I see a Marve

Marvel Legends (News): Venompool BAF!
More #Marvel_Legends news! Again as I pointed out, my collecting days for Hasbro's finest are probably long gone. They are a devourer of real estate in my non-existent Game Room, they become costly with how often #Hasbro produce new product, and all in all, I think I may have been burned out with constantly reviewing action figures that are relatively the same figure after figure (that's a very loose statement by the way). But I can't deny that Hasbro's 2020 announcement does

Marvel Legends: 2020
It's been some time since I have gotten my hands on a #Marvel_Legends action figure. It will probably be a long time until I pull the trigger and actually get myself one again with the limited space I have in my game room at the moment. But I can't help but enjoy some of these things that are being shown off. I won't go into EVERY single figure but I will highlight some of the ones that interest me. So, let's get to it! The Fox X-Men has been a hit or miss for me. Hugh Jackma

Marvel Legends Unleashed: Iron Man
Whoa! A #Marvel_Legends Unleashed? What is this? This is a blast from the past! One of my older toys that I just decided to open quite recently! Why? well, just cause. Let's not dilly-dally! Let's get right into the review! Again, this is a very old Marvel Legends spinoff line. I used to have regular suit Spidey and Symbiote Spidey but gave them away. I can't remember off the top of my head but I believe this was during the 'dark ages' of Marvel Legends? Maybe? But regardless

Marvel Legends "Molten Man" BAF: Spider-Woman
A #Marvel_Legends review? I'm quite aware that it has been ages since my last Marvel Legends catch and to be completely honest, I'm not even sure if this toyline will be getting a lot of love from me this year, but I can say one thing: if a character entices me I will get it. Julia Carpenter Spider-Woman is not my favorite character but she is a Spider-Woman. Spider-Women have a special place in my heart. Let's get on with the review. I don't think I have talked about Julia C

2019 Highlights: Action Figures & Toys
2019 was an interesting year when it comes to my collecting hobby. To put it simply, I didn't really collect as much compared to previous years. This was probably the year that I slowed down quite a bit for a plethora of reasons. Sadly, Game Room VI was also taken out of commission due to circumstances. It's not a complete sob story though since at the given moment, I'm going through some rebuilding in a new room. While it may not be able to showcase the full scope of my coll

Funko POP: Iceman
Since it's winter time, it's quite fitting that we have ourselves Iceman blasting his way with ice sled and all. #POPs are a common thing in my collection this year and so let's take a gander at Bobby Drake's #POP reimagination! This is part of the 80 Years celebration of #Marvel and with how grand Marvel has become, they want to touch base on a certain mutant team that just literally assembled back to the "Marvel side" of things: The X-Men. Honestly, Iceman here was going to

Marvel Legends Wendigo BAF: Wolverine (X-Force)
A #Marvel_Legends review?! Yes, that's right! A Marvel Legends review. This toy line is very rare these days for a myriad of reasons, but for the most part, it's because I really don't have the room and the funds to spend on #Hasbro's constant waves coming down. Though there are times I want to break that streak and give in. For an updated Wolverine in his X-Force outfit, I'm game. So, let's get right into the review! I feel that I have had enough time between this and the la

SDCC 2019: Marvel Legends
Yes, it's SDCC 2019. Yes, I'm not there. Yes. I suck. But hey, ShartimusPrime (the obvious video above) and BigBadToyStore (responsible for the photos below) got my back! Well, they got everyones' back! Now before I talk about how awesome these action figures out, it's clear that my #Marvel_Legends collection hasn't grown, if even, this year. Action figures are actually a bit of a dry spell these days, but definitely Hasbro has taken a hit. There are many factors but two main

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.

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

ML Marvel STUD10S: 2-pack Hulkbuster vs Hulk
The next find on my hunt is none other than the Marvel Legends First 10 Years 2-pack: Iron Man vs Hulk AoU. This was one of the biggest fan service they could give the Iron Man fans so why wouldn't they have it released in a 2-pack? At any rate, let's jump right into the review! I just have to say that this is a HUGE and heavy box. Most of the weight comes from the #Hulkbuster, but given the fact that these action figures are not your standard 6 inch Marvel Legends, there are

ML Marvel STUD10S: Iron Man MK VII
Hasbro is not playing around with their #Marvel_Legends line. They have and will continue to take opportunity on the juggernaut that is Marvel--more specifically, the #MCU. The "First Ten Years" line is dedicated to some of the Cinematic Universe's pivotal moments in action figure form. My first catch of this series is none other than the Marvel Legends Iron Man Mark VII. Let's check out this action figure! This is not a typical Marvel Legends box either and as it shouldn't b

Marvel Legends BAF: Apocalypse
#Hasbro has a trend that seems pretty obvious with modern day #Marvel_Legends collector: replace the old #ToyBiz legends. So far they have done a pretty good job (subjective statement of course). Will the latest Apocalypse BAF from Hasbro tackle the behemoth Apocalypse of the past? Let's find out in this toy review! En Sabah Nur has had several looks throughout his years in the Marvel universe. His size has varied through the years as well so for an action figure to get the '

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

Marvel Legends Apocalypse BAF: Punk Rock Storm
The next #Marvel_Legends #BAF Apocalypse wave is going to be Ororo Monroe, aka Storm--in her classic punk rock look, of course. #Hasbro is killing bank accounts with the wave and wave of Marvel Legends this year, and honestly, most I got. This is second to the last that I'll be getting this year, so first, let's check out The new Marvel Legends of Storm! I'm not sure why Storm went for this look after her first appearance one (a sexy look too), but honestly, I don't mind this
