Toy Fair 2011 > NECA
(Check out my NECA gallery here.) As always, NECA had some fantastic stuff on display at Toy Fair this year. Randy Falk, the Director of Product Development, gave me a tour of their major action figure lines for 2011.
Review > Young Eleanor & Little Sister (Bioshock, NECA)
Roger Ebert recently brought down quite a controversy on his head by stating his belief that videogames can never be art. It’s a surprisingly Grumpy Old Man position for someone who’s usually as reasonable as Ebert, but given his age, reputation and so forth, I guess he’s allowed a few of those. If I were [...]

NECA Bioshock – Subject Delta/Little Sister by Ed Speir IV
Odds ‘n Ends > Post-SDCC Ennui Edition
Apologies for the lack of updates the last couple of days, but in the wake of SDCC there’s really just not much news going on. Feel free to pass along something…maybe a Toy Aisle Trolls? Anyone…?

That’s akin to bringing a Master Sword to a Hammer of Dawn fight… wait, that’s [...]
Review > Big Daddy (Bioshock 2, NECA)
I believe videogames are an art medium, one that’s already comparable–in terms of commercial success–to film, the dominant art medium of the twentieth century, (compare the sales of Halo 3 to the box office receipts of The Dark Knight). But while videogames have been around for over a third of a century, there are very [...]
Odds ‘n Ends
Not a whole lot of toy-related news out there, so it’s Odds ‘n Ends for y’all. Anyone (besides Paul, obviously) pick up Halo: ODST? I’m burned out on first-person shooters so I don’t plan to, but feel free to discuss the game below. How does it compare to the other three? Rate them in order [...]
