Classic Review: Plastic Imagination Rise of the Beasts Bal Kharn - Green Rhino with Grey Paint
|
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! The Plastic Imagination Rise of the Beasts Bal Kharn - Green Rhino with Grey Paint is from 2015, a neat little figure from a line that stopped far too quickly. For a brief time it seemed we were destined to get multiple lines just like Battle Beasts, and given they all ended pretty quickly, I guess they were. This Glyos-compatible figure was really cool with moving arms and a jointed neck. Do read on, and come back tomorrow for a new one!

Review: Blokees Blokees Transformers Galaxy Version 01 Roll Out Ratchet Action Figure
|
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!
A good deal. Blokees Blokees Transformers Galaxy Version 01 Roll Out Ratchet Action Figure cost under $7, and you can put it together in under 20 minutes - it's a great example of how to get people collecting without having to pay $25 or $35 to get started. Low-cost figures are far and few between. Even though Ratchet has compromises like many shared parts, it's still a good figure. I hope you can find one in a store near you. Read on!

Nintendo World Championships: Week 30
|
Via Nintendo: Competition #30 is on now in Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition. I feel like they must be getting my vibes about the games I'd rather not play.
This week:
Not Lichen It (Super Mario Bros: Lost Levels) - in which you die by mushrooms.
Monster Slayer (Zelda II: The Adventure of Link) - in which three beasts must die.
Shoo, Lakitu! (Super Mario Bros) - in which a 4-1 run must be done.
Egg Toss (Super Mario Bros. 2) - in which you egg a Birdo, in this economy.
Favorable Wind (Kirby's Adventure) - in which you have the wind to your back and race to the finish.
This was a fun batch overall, I even beat some old times.

Star Wars Review: The Mandalorian (Speeder Bike / Epic Hero Series)
|
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: The Mandalorian (Speeder Bike / Epic Hero Series). It's an actual toy! It comes with a bike that has wheels. He has elbow and knee joints. It's a big improvement over last year's figure, but I haven't yet seen this one on store shelves. His companion, the Imperial Speeder Bike, seems to be abundant at Target though. Read the whole review.

Review: Mattel Hot Wheels Racer Verse Spongebob Squarepants
|
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 Racer Verse Spongebob Squarepants recently. You can get him individually or in a 2-pack with Plankton, and then you can remember the cartoon is over 20 years old and crumble into dust because you remember when it was new. Time is the fire in which we burn. Where was I going with this? Right, this is a cool boat of car. Read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!
