Extra large! The Tim Mee Toys Green Galaxy Laser Team Star Patrol Jumbo Figure Set is closer to being in scale with your 1990s Star Trek and 2010s Outer Space Men than they are in fitting in with your army men buckets - which makes them pretty fantastic.

Not bad! The Mattel Masters of the Universe Classics Glimmer figure turned out particularly well which is important, since while you could say any one of the Princess of Power characters is "fan-demanded" but this one was particularly loudly requested. So read on and come back tomorrow for more!

The new Hasbro Transformers Generations Thrilling 30 Roadbuster is a bit of a mess - some of the joints are weird and there are a ton of nasty stickers. The transformation is a breeze, and I love the guns. I don't know if this means it's good or not, but it's more or less enjoyable. Read on and come back Monday for more!

You can see a shot of what I picked up on Tumblr and they'll start appearing here in Figure of the Day next week. I should note I found them at a giant Walmart - not the little crappy neighborhood one by my house - and individual figures cost $8.96, 3-pack was $19.96, and I didn't check the Goliathon price. In hindsight I don't know why I skipped it given how much I like buying toys that can eat other toys, but there you go.

If you pledged $45, you get 42 figures. It's a pretty great deal, actually, if you like this sort of thing.

It's not cheap - about $90ish before shipping - but it is a mammoth, and a cyclops, and from a classic video game, and I can't have it. A pox upon your houses for not giving me this news when I could use it, cruel universe. On the bright side, some toy importers have it, there's always eBay, and of course we can also go on living without it, I guess, whatever.

Also newsworthy is a Sega Genesis Megatron - not Mega Drive - that's exclusive to an online store from the look of things, so here's hoping they either ship to the USA or speculators buy a bunch to flip at hopefully modest mark-ups.

If you're like me and only planning to buy 1 or 2 of these guys, you should skip this link. I was planning on getting Strongarm and after seeing these in action it looks like Grimlock, Bumblebee, and Steeljaw are actually all pretty good. They also look pretty meaty and sizable compared to the Deluxe toys of Prime, or at least bigger than Kup/Ironhide. Coincidentally, my place of employment put them up for pre-order last night and you can buy a set at the link below. Which, apparently, I will now be doing.

Many years in the making! The Hasbro Transformers Generations Thrilling 30 Arcee is one of those figures that we never thought we'd see, and here she is, and she's pretty OK. Not perfect - there are a few oddities that knock her down a peg or two - but she's here and she looks pretty decent. So read on, and come back tomorrow for more!

Silver! The Hasbro Transformers Generations Thrilling 30 Crosscut figure ain't bad, and is a Japan Ehobby release character brought to a US nostalgia line. To say he's an unlikely choice is something of an understatement. So read on and come back tomorrow for more!

There's nothing specific other than to say there will be new figures which will allow you to part with some money in the coming one or two weeks. The last new release was shipped quite some time ago, and all figures in this line have been variations on releases from September and October of 2013 so far - so some newness is both expected and welcome.

--AP

Not only are reasons for the delay given, they explain a lot - including the problems the now-shipping Gothitropolis Ravens are going to have/may have with their joints - plus some other goodies. It's worth reading what John Kent has to say over at ToyFinity.

--AP

Red Army Men MKII and a vinyl tank T-011 are coming soon, but "soon" is the unknown variable.

The very good Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel Legends have been run again, and stocks are surprisingly cheap for many of the figures. Normally about $20 each, figures start at $8. If you're looking to build Groot, at press time it's a mere $97 for all 6 characters (with the pieces to build Groot.)

The new Mattel Toy Story That Time Forgot Battle Armor Trixie Action Figure is a decent toy figure. Exclusive to Walmart (as far as I can tell, and not marked as such except on in-store displays) the figure is the first individually packaged Trixie figure ever since her debut in 2010. Is she worth it? Well, without question, she's the best Trixie action figure. Read on and come back Monday for more!

The full menu has yet to be revealed, but last night's Kabuto Mushi drop disappeared quickly - so you might want to set up camp for this one.

It is assumed these are near the point of distribution, as the shipping method used - if memory serves - takes 3-10 business days. And it will take all 10 business days if you're on the other end of the country. Over 700 orders have shipped so far, so it's possible you will get yours before Christmas. For those keeping track, you paid for these on Kickstarter back in August 2013 and the original target date was March 2014. The industry standard for an action figure being conceived until its release is about 18 months, and they took about 16 after starting the campaign. It's not terrible, although I do hope future Kickstarter projects take the delays into account just to manage expectations going into it.

--AP

February, $79.99, limited to 1,000 pieces. A Deadpool figure also went up, but has since sold out.

Also very attractive is December's Club Nintendo Downloads. Kirby's Dream Land 3, Metroid, Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters? Great picks.

The non-transforming, undecorated figure is $45.99 and appears to be part of Super Fan Art or is at least tagged as such. If nothing else it's interesting to see, and probably implies strongly that Hasbro will not be making you an official transforming "ornament" Rung any time soon.

Jagex confirms refunds for the Founder's Pack ($400ish, with a statue) are being issued and the game will go totally dark in January. You should have your refund by January 16, the game will be down by January 31. While word hasn't gotten out yet as to the why, licensing expirations would be my first guess.
