Star Wars Review: Tessek (The Vintage Collection)

Star WarsVia the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Tessek (The Vintage Collection). It's a pretty good figure - the arms are mostly from Bib Fortuna, the head is new, the colors are pretty good, but I still like my Power of the Jedi Tessek just fine. If you need more articulation and cloth bits? Get this one. If you're happy with the one you've got? You're all set. Read the whole review.

Review: Super7 Universal Monsters The Invisible Man ReAction Figure

Figure of the DaySuper7 Universal Monsters The Invisible Man ReAction Figures ReAction FigureSomething new every day-- unless it's old! Our exciting Figure of the Day continues for you lucky people! Is there anything we won't cover in this column? Probably not!

Shared! The Super7 Universal Monsters The Invisible Man ReAction Figure plays with the premise and makes the bandages and gloves clear/invisible. It looks good, even if it's not quite how it worked in the movie. (It's a great movie, you should watch it. It's too long.) Do read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!

5 Days to Go and Fully Funded: HasLab Transformers Liokaiser

TransformersFightVia Hasbro Pulse: Transformers Legacy HasLab Liokaiser Combiner. It closes in 5 days, but as of my writing this it has exceeded its final stretch goal with 18,252 backers. That's $5,475,417.48 so far, which is not a bad deal for Hasbro.

Hasbro's Evan Brooks confirmed it will include thigh articulation but may or may not have a spear and stand, so there's that. The set is $299.99 plus shipping and taxes.

Star Wars Review: Jecki Lon (The Retro Collection)

Star WarsVia the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Jecki Lon (The Retro Collection) . This is the only alien in The Acolyte set, and it's a short Jedi with a blue face and horns - but it also looks different from most of your other figures from this line or of this size. It's also currently the only 3 3/4-inch scale version of this character. She is sold in a six pack with other figures from the series. Read the whole review.

Review: Mattel Hot Wheels The Demon 25th Anniversary (Root Beer)

Figure of the DayMattel Hot Wheels The Demon 25th Anniversary (Root Beer)Something new every day-- unless it's old! Our exciting Figure of the Day continues for you lucky people! Is there anything we won't cover in this column? Probably not!

Not new, but cool! I got the Mattel Hot Wheels The Demon 25th Anniversary (Root Beer) and it's nifty - it's heavy, the wheels roll well, and it looks cool. It's also not really worth anything, which is great for a toy from 1970 that was reproduced in 1993. More companies should reissue toys so future generations can enjoy them, while collectors horde them for a period of time. It helps us see what the olds were excited about. Read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!

Andalogue 3D Nintendo64 Clone Delayed

NintendoNintendon't arrive on timeVia Analogue: Analogue 3D shipping is delayed (as of March 18th, 2025) and is now shipping by July 2025. Pre-orders have been spoken for, and the cartridge-playing console hasn't - as far as I know - had review units go out either. I'm interested in this one but dragging my feet, mostly because I don't have that many N64 games nor do I plan to buy many more. I'm looking forward to reading and watching the reviews for this one.

I admit to not using the consoles of theirs I bought all that much - except the Pocket, which I still use almost every day. I wish (and I assume they wish) that thing could be in stores so anybody who wants one can just pick it up and dig out an old Tetris cartridge and go to town.

Figure of the DayTakara-Tomy Transformers Missing Link Cliffjumper Action FigureSomething new every day-- unless it's old! Our exciting Figure of the Day continues for you lucky people! Is there anything we won't cover in this column? Probably not!

Probably sold out! Takara-Tomy Transformers Missing Link Cliffjumper Action Figure takes a toy from 40ish years ago, adds some joints and a couple of blasters, and sells it back to you - and it looks great. There's a gap in hte car mode, but as a robot figure it's pretty nice. Read on!

Atari Watch of Interest

AtariAtari 2600 My Play WatchVia Atari: Atari 2600 My Play Watch. A friend of mine point this out with a shrug and I thought it was kind of neat. It's an $80 smart watch that has Atari vibes, and it does some Fitbit stuff with some playable games. I assume they do not play well on a wrist watch, but Centipede, Missile Command, Pong, and Super Breakout are allegedly playable. Me, I wear a 1980s-ish calculator watch when I'm around people pretending to be a real adult because it amuses me, but this might work for you if you're not an Apple Watch or watchless person. It's nifty, but I would love to know how playable it is.

Nintendo World Championships: Week 36

Nintendo SwitchFightVia Nintendo: Competition #36 is on now in Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition. This was a pretty easy week for me.

This week:
Mushzoom (Super Mario Bros) - in which you do mushrooms again.

Shivery Start (Ice Climber) - in which you can do the bare minimum.

Knuckle Sandwitch (Zelda II: The Adventure of Link) - in which you stab a knight six times.

Exit Stage Right (Kirby's Adventure) - in which you run to the door.

Xtreme Terrain (Excitebike) - in which I still can't play Excitebike well.

It was a fun mix - I love Zelda II challenges, and the Excitebike one wasn't too bad. Is anyone but me playing this still? I'm enjoying it.

Ollie's Taking Over Some Big Lots Locations

ToysGordon Brothers was selling leases for more than 600 Big Lots locationsVia the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel: Gordon Brothers was selling leases for more than 600 Big Lots locations. Most if not all of the Big Lots near me closed, and will probably remain so for a while. Toy fans in the midwest seem to be getting many, many opportunities to hunt for goodies at Ollie's as "Ollie's now plans to open about 75 new store locations in 2025 as a result of the transaction." I am jealous.

Star Wars Review: Taym Dren-Garen (The Vintage Collection)

Star WarsVia the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Taym Dren-Garen (The Vintage Collection). I can't believe he exists, either - the retool (!) looks just like the human actor (!!) and it's a great addition to that shelf of minor characters that has been growing very slowly over the past decades. Also he's long sold out... but a good figure, if you can find one. Read the whole review.
