SDCC > Rustin Parr’s Report, Day 5
Sunday 7/26 140,000 people, 4.5 days, 1 convention – it all comes down to this. The morning was spent re-orchestrating all of the previous buys into a somewhat manageable series of bags, you see typically we bring down large boxes to fill up but all of box army fell in battle against Recycle-Or several months [...]
Doc Thomas Probes > Essential Accessories, Part I
Sometimes, between the unnecessary surgery that takes up most of my day, I take a nice long breather out in the fresh air far away from the screams in the basement and reflect upon things. At other times, I’m all about relaxing in my toy room, taking a seat at the table in the middle [...]
Doc Thomas Probes > Action Figure Scales
Like many contemporary collectors, the action figures that got me into this glorious hobby were the late-90′s McFarlane Toys offerings: Movie Maniacs, Sleepy Hollow, Austin Powers and everything in-between. With the combination of amazing sculpting and detailed paint, Todd McFarlane’s company had upped the game for everyone. But for me, the best thing McFarlane Toys [...]
Paul’s Peg > Get Your Sexy … ah hem… Twilek Lego Minifigs
Female Twileks are the Swedish bikini models of the Star Wars universe. In fact, I really can’t think of an alien race that’s as alien, yet sexy as the Twileks (don’t you dare point to them new fangeled blue Avatars you sicko). If you’ve been hankering for a harem of Twileks for your Lego Luke [...]

Paul’s Peg > The Playmates Star Trek Survey
While at the recent Wizard run Chicago Comic Con I went on a sort of frenzied spree buying old Playmates Star Trek figures. There were tons of them for five bucks or less, so I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to finally check out these figures after missing all of them when they were originally [...]
Pic of the Day > Picard
Picard by Joshishi For a 1987 3 ¾” figure, that likeness isn’t half bad.
Captain Kirk’s in Big Tribble
Somehow I missed hearing about this until today, but Diamond Select is releasing a special “Trouble with Tribbles” Kirk–WITH TRIBBLES. Seriously–7″-scale Tribbles! I don’t own any DS ST merch at the moment, but I may just have to get this. It’s an Amazon exclusive.
Odds ‘n’ Ends > Pre-SDCC Edition
The Fwoosh has a first look review of Egon. The glasses don’t look as bad as they did in the packaging shots. Looks like he is indeed in the same scale as Movie Masters, so you can have Egon duke it out with the Joker. I will say that while the new Slimer is nice, [...]
