Review: Star Wars Republic Gunship

Code 3:
An unknown company to most, they took on and created and incredible line of Star Wars die cast vehicles that I had never heard of until it was too late for all but the gunship and Darth Vader's tie-fighter


Review: Saishou Henkei God Gravion, Compact Sigma Version

Like many mecha fanboys, my jaw hit the floor when photographs began circulating of Studio Halfeye’s perfect transformation Getter. This toy was a revolution in henkei design, a beyond-intricate origami exercise executed in resin and screws, produced in a small shop, and largely the work of one man, Hajime Takashima.


Review: Domo-Kun

This is a Domo-Kun toy that is different from a lot of other Domo toys flooding the market right now.

Bonus points for Domo dancing to the Xanadu song at the end of the review.


Review: Universal Studios Classic Monster Action Figures The Mummy

"It comes to life!"


Review: Universal Studios Classic Monster Action Figures Werewolf Of London

"Hideous Half Man, Half Beast Who Terrorized Millions!"


Review: Shin Seiki Gokin Thunderbird 2 DX (weathering version)

THUNDERBIRDS...are go! Thunderbird 2 is made of die cast and high quality plastic manufactured by Aoshima. It is has nice paint works, metal stilt legs, and removable container car.


Review: Shin Seiki Gokin T-800 Endoskeleton

Terminator 2 Judgment Day - 1/6 Scale T-800 made by Aoshima; and like its ventures into Thunderbirds and Getter Robo, the Chogokin is well crafted and full of die cast.


Review: Power Rangers Deluxe Samurai Star Lightning Megazord

It is the same toy as the original Japanese DX Hishou Henkei Tenkujin, but about $30 cheaper!

Includes Video review!


Review: Kubrick 4-LOM

Cute little bounty hunters - Does it get any better?


Review: AMC Monsterfest Collection War Of The Colossal Beast

"I DON'T WANT TO GROW ANYMORE!!!!!"

Actually, that line happened in the original "Amazing Colossal Man" movie. But I've always loved it and I love this figure from X-Plus, too..


Review: THE Chogokin Robocon

Here is another blast from my past and a character any robot collector worth a darn should have in their collection. It's Robocon!


Review: Macross VF-1A Valkyrie Max Genius DYRL Type

Yamato has been known to make some very fine, anime accurate collectibles over the last few years and in that time I have wanted a 1/48th scale Valkyrie from Macross. Can you believe the hype or is it overrated? Read on to find out. VIDEO included.


Review: Master Action Getter Robo 1 (Comic Version) Final Version

Not really a good toy at all.


Review: AMC Monsterfest Collection Marty the 3-Eyed Mutant

Quite possibly the least intimidating name for a monster ever.....Marty.


Review: Candy Case Hedorah

Maybe it is those weepy eyes, maybe it is the ecological threat that it represents, but Hedorah is clearly my favorite Kaiju baddy.
