I really don’t know how I feel about DC’s upcoming reboot/relaunch/retread thing they have coming up. I would love it if comics started selling again and weren’t just an afterthought to licensing…which I just realized is an ironic thing to say, since I buy way more DC figures than I do DC comics. But I [...]
For some reason, probably too many Dos Equis, I hear Pornstache with the voice of actor Jonathan Goldsmith, “The Most Interesting Man in the World.” Oddly, Hang ‘em High is on as I type this, and he was in that for a scene or two. The mask is the same one 339/1 was selling back [...]
A month long Bad Day? Yeah, I’ve had that before, too. Usually ended with a new cellmate–I mean, um, roommate–for me as well. Next time, we get to see a little background of the man, the myth, the legend: Pornstache.
Big thanks to Poe for the newest Bastard, Pornstache! You know his name, but will he be friend or foe? “Bad day” concludes next week! I already know in my head who Pornstache sounds like, but can’t say yet. It’s a voice you might recognize, but probably couldn’t put a name to; I certainly can’t…
I might’ve mentioned him before, but that Wal-Mart exclusive Marvel Universe Savage Frost Giant (and Loki) is pretty sweet. The only downside is, get one and you may very well want another…and there’s every possibility that the distribution is going to be an utter crapshoot on him. Good luck!
Bill’s bad day is going to go on for a while, but this seemed like a good way to catch up with the cast, since we’ll be introducing a new cast member or two later. The Sectaurs in this one are a recent eBay purchase, during a local toy drought: I never had them as [...]
Between Vikor and Desaad, Conan’s building quite the support crew. Why? He’s really lazy. But, something often forgotten from his stories, Conan actually was pretty smart for his time. Admittedly, the bar was set mighty low…
Ah, Vikor: This seems like a good use of a $30 figure. It was that, or freeze him in a block of ice to wake up in the future… Before working on this one, I re-read a ton of old Conan comics, mostly Savage Sword of Conan, and watched Conan the Barbarian again. The prophecy [...]
A sad day, today. Or rather, a month and a half or so ago, when I sent Poe 339/1 back. I’ll miss the ugly Bastard; but we’ve got some more figures from around the same era that will be showing up later.
BBC America ran Excalibur quite a few times a couple months back, which led to me having to eBay this Merlin figure, from Lady Pendragon. I know there was a figure for her as well, based on the 90′s Rob Liefeld comic; but I couldn’t tell you if they were any good. (Yes, I can: [...]
