Greetings all. I apologize for the dearth of posts these last few days, but I’m extremely busy with real-life concerns at the moment. Nothing bad, just busy. I owe you a number of things–DCUC Joker review, the MasterPOEce contest poll, the next Forgotten Lore, and so forth, and will get those to you as soon [...]
Fwoosh has first looks at Scare-Glow, Zodak, 6″ Ray Stanz and 12″ Ray Stanz. Try not to hate VeeBee too much. It’s a dark road I went down long ago. After looking through the reviews, I bet the 12″ Ray sells better than we–or at least I–thought it would. The facial sculpt isn’t great, but [...]

How can this be good for business if a dedicated toy store cannot even get the Mattel product it ordered and is guaranteed [...]
My awareness of professional wrestling is limited to Hulk Hogan’s cameo in Gremlins 2 and the Macho Man’s beef jerky commercials, but since you folks seem to care a lot about what Mattel’s doing in regard to action figures, I thought this was worth posting. Wrestling Figs has the scoop on all the upcoming Mattel [...]
“Forgotten Lore” is my Raven-inspired title for a feature in which I examine some unreleased action figure. Pictures are from Raving Toy Maniac. One of my favorite PC games ever is Rune, a Viking-themed, 3D 3rd-person action game that came out long before 3rd-person action games like God of War were in vogue. In Rune [...]
