Review: Mattel Masters of the Universe Classics Plundor

Something new every day-- unless it's old! Our 16bit.com Figure of the Day continues for you lucky people! Is there anything we won't cover in this column? Probably not!
Fake fur! The Mattel Masters of the Universe Classics Plundor figure comes from the rich Filmation legacy, and also means Mattel got its big goofy rabbit out before Hasbro did one for Star Wars. So read on, and come back soon for more!

Via the Outer Space Men News blog: The Last Drop Ever? New Outer Space Men Infinity Figure Pre-Orders, Chrome Accessories Now.

More Power Lords Live Now

More fully-painted versions of these molds are in the works, but I will say that the mid-tier deco on the Ggrapptikks and Ggripptogg looks pretty decent.

Let's kick off with a few rolls of photos from FanExtasy - Toy Fair 2014 - LEGO Friends, with penguins, beach resorts, and mostly typically pink toy aisle stuff.

Unpleasant Grimlock Mold Returning to Production
|
Via the Faces Book: Toy R Us - Grimlock (Evolution 2-Pack: G1/1984 x AoE/2014). The movie Grimlock looks pretty neat and is seemingly the Voyager-class mold - the "classic" Grimlock is the Energon-era mold, which came out in 2004 and couldn't be forgotten quickly enough. It was originally half of a boxed set with Swoop in which the toys could combine into a larger, even more ungainly toy. The deco of this version is actually a lot nicer than his ancestor, but it would probably take a massive blow to my head to purchase it again.
This new two-pack will be exclusive to Toys R Us, and may be there for some time. Just go give your various Classics, Pretenders, G1, Masterpiece, and other Grimlock toys a hug. Given the sizes of these two toys, expect a $35-$50 price point on this one.
While no photos have leaked, SKUs have gotten out indicating there may be many other sets just like this one. It's not unthinkable that Grimlock's Energon companion Swoop would be packaged with Strafe, after all.

Toy Fair 2014: LEGO - City, DC, Ninjago
|
More Toy Fair? Sure, why not. Today: Toy Fair 2014 - LEGO City, which brings the return of the orange Arctic sets for the first time in nearly 10 years. If you love snow gear and polar bears, it's an exciting time to be alive.
Of course, the normal sets are also still on deck.
Next: Toy Fair 2014 - LEGO DC Comics. There's a new crawling robot creature covered in guns and targets, which you can shoot. It's pretty cool! DK is putting out a book with darts.
And finally: Toy Fair 2014 - LEGO Ninjago. Not a ton of new stuff here, but there should be a few new-to-you things including a cute little robot girl figure.
More tomorrow!

Toy Fair 2014: LEGO - Star Wars, DC, Ultra Agents

And finally: Toy Fair 2014 - LEGO Ultra Agents. We had Agents a few years ago, so this is like... moreso. Big fans, awesome suits, and insane pink hair. It's pretty fantastic.

New Outer Space Men Arrive at Horsemen HQ

Via the Outer Space Men News blog: Outer Space Men 2014 Infinity Wave Arrives at Four Horsemen HQ.

Toy Fair 2014: NECA - Alien, DC, Predator
|
More Toy Fair? Yes. Today: Toy Fair 2014 - NECA Alien, which brings figures and a vehicle from the first three films.
While their creatures have always been good, the human faces are utterly remarkable. Do check them out.
And finally: Toy Fair 2014 - NECA Predator. The NES-themed figure was on display, as well as a Samurai, a Cracked Tusk Predator, and a Kenner-inspired vehicle - the Blade Fighter! I've had the original within reach for quite some time, so it's mind-boggling to see an update. Clearly, it's the goal of NECA to make you ignore Kenner's line by the time they finish.
More tomorrow!

A real classic! The Burger King Universal Monsters Wolf Man Cellar Dweller is a real, actual fast food toy that's also a 3 3/4-inch figure. I got this free with dinner - and I would argue that along with when McDonald's did Bionicle Matorans and actual sacks of LEGO bricks as freebies, this is one of the best things you could ever hope to get with hamburgers, fries, and a drink.
