Star Wars Review: Anakin Skywalker (Epic World of Action)
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Anakin Skywalker (Epic World of Action). It's new! I have yet to see him in any store, but online sellers have had him off and on since August. The figure's render on the packaging is superb - you can see where things went a little sideways with a head that doesn't quite look the same plus an armor piece around his neck that feels a little too thick.

Review: Onell Design Glyos Infinite Pheyden Standard
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!
New and Sold Out! The Onell Design Glyos Infinite Pheyden Standard is one of shockingly few figures Onell Design sold out of and immediately opened for a second run - which closed before the first run shipped out the door. I've been messing with these guys and I would say the review is a little undercooked this time because I keep trying new things with it and finding out which parts can swap in well from other figures. You'll see more of that in the alternate deco figure reviews in the coming weeks too. It's a very good indie figure and the kind of thing I wish I could walk into the store and buy. It doesn't break a lot of new ground, it doesn't transform the world of toys, but if you like this sort of thing? You'll be mad you missed it. It's a lot of fun. Read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!
Star Wars Review: Snowtrooper Commander (The Vintage Collection)
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Snowtrooper Commander (The Vintage Collection). This is the 3-pack guy - the single carded figure (and trooper pack) are the grunts, so this one has different shoulders and knees and a different helmet too. Read the whole review.
Review: Mattel Hot Wheels Racer Verse Wonder Woman & Batman
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!
Old! The Mattel Hot Wheels Racer Verse Wonder Woman & Batman is part of a line collectors seem to be ignoring but one I feel has a lot of promise. Mario Kart-esque cars with figures are widely available across multiple licenses, but pegwarmers that may not appeal to little boys pile up and not everything is a hit. This is a hit - and somehow it was at Ross for $2.99, so I got it. Read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!
Over the weekend, Hasbro posted the fourteenth episode of Transformers Cyberworld on YouTube. But I missed it, so here it is now.
"Shoot n Loot" does not introduce new faces but it really does lean on the team-based shooter motif. It might not be as fun as the other episodes but what else are you going to watch on a bathroom break?
Review: Hasbro Transformers Age of the Primes Leader The Thirteen Onyx Prime
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!
Newish! The big brown Hasbro Transformers Age of the Primes Leader The Thirteen Onyx Prime doesn't match the colorful IDW comics version, but it still looks pretty neat with wings and beaks and hooves and a centaur mode. It's a deceptively simple toy, but it's fun to fuss with and has a big spear. Read on!
Via the Glyos News Dump: Glyos Onell Design November 8, 2025 Drop Menu. Pheyden Infinite is a Four Horsemen collab with two new colorways, plus returning classics like the original Pheyden mold and the latest iteration of the Armorvor - plus a Zeroid buddy. There's a lot to like here in a fairly small release. Check 'em out!
Nothing sold out on Saturday night, but the black Axis Joints and the Altered Origin Pheyden sold out by early Sunday. So, go grab something if you have a few bucks. I'm playing with the Infinite Pheyden guys I got a few weeks ago still, and a review for the blue Pheyden will be up later this week. You'll like them.
A lot of other Glyos figures were revealed but there weren't many official announcements from any of the other makers. I'm itching to get my hands on the Paleolords. Knights of the Slice reportedly offered a wonderful bright green Gauss armor with a pink blaster and matching highlights. I also posted other LegionsCon reveals here, there are some really sharp ones on deck.
Four Horsemen Reveal Mythic Legions Dawns of Discovery for 2027
Via Store Horsemen:
DAWNS OF DISCOVERY
. Due in 2027, 9 new figures and an accessory pack are now up for pre-order. While I wasn't at LegionsCon to see them in person, the pictures are impressive and the amount of parts and pieces you get are increasingly competitive with what Hasbro and Mattel and other Japanese collector companies have been doing. $55 for a giant Walrus Man is more than the $28 for a basic Marvel Legends figure... but once you compare it to the more deluxe offerings? This is an impressive piece of plastic.
I wish there could be a world where there was also a kiddie version of this line with simpler stuff in stores, but such is not how it goes. Could you imagine a 4-inch Glyos version of some of these guys? It wouldn't be as impressive but it would be fun to take a big manta ray guy with you on trips if you were a kid. Anyway, great stuff, and give 'em a look. You probably won't see anything cooler or more original this year.
Classic Review: Playmates Star Trek Elim Garak Action Figure
Something new every day-- but this was posted 10 years ago today! Our exciting Figure of the Day continues for you lucky people! Is there anything we won't cover in this column? Probably not!
Posted 10 years ago! From 1996, Playmates Star Trek Elim Garak Action Figure was something I wanted to get when it was new but didn't pick it up until roughly the time I wrote the review. Star Wars was taking all my action figure money in 1996, so I had to wait to get it for basically the same price since Trek collecting hasn't exactly become more popular. It's a great figure, and I'm just delighted that it exists. You can probably find one at comic or record shops, or maybe an antique mall and it'll be under $10. Do read on, and come back tomorrow for a new one!

Star Wars Review: Han Solo (The Vintage Collection)
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Han Solo (The Vintage Collection). It's new! It has great articulation and construction! But the hair and face are still hard to get right. I'd still recommend it as the best possible option you can buy right now, but you might also be happy with the figures you've got - and a new version is probably inevitable down the road. You can see where the extra money is going with the neck as a piece separately molded from the shirt, a unique wig piece, face printing, and other distinct (and not free) elements. But, the 1999 CommTech one might be good enough for your playset display needs.

The GodBeast and Funkatello: New Infinity Editions at LegionsCon, D-Con
Via The Glyos News Dump (and The God Beast store): The GodBeast and Funkatello Standard Edition Mammoth Monstor and Sectivorian Coming Soon. They'll be for sale in Jersey this weekend, Vegas next weekend, and hopefully some might be left for online sales later. I got the Void editions and they're both really wonderful - you might want to snag a set if you haven't tried them yet.
Star Wars Review: Clone Captain Rex (Epic World of Action)
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Clone Captain Rex (Epic World of Action). It's been out for a couple of months and is an excellent figure with a good amount of articulation. The price is great for what you get. So what's the catch? I haven't seen any in stores yet, it's available online and I assume that means the line isn't doing very well. While he has two clear blue pistols - admittedly, an unusual choice - it's still a well-made figure that would probably do great business if people could find it on a peg. I'd recommend it if you can find it. Read the whole review.
Review: Fisher-Price Imaginext Series 7 Collectible Figures Alien
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!
Old! The Fisher-Price Imaginext Series 7 Collectible Figures Alien is now a ghastly ten years old, and I'm not sure if I got it back then or slightly later. The non-IP figure line has sadly ended, but there are clever ideas like this one - a little guy in a full-size guy suit. Excellent. Also, cheap. Read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!
