Star Wars Review: Chewbacca (Epic World of Action)
|
|
  Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Chewbacca (Epic World of Action). It's tall, it has a lot of articulation, and it's really nice. I don't know if it is coming to stores or not - I got mine online. I was surprised the figure's design borrows heavily from the 6-inch sculpt. Read the whole review.

Review: Mattel Hot Wheels Lightnin' Bug
|
|
  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 Lightnin' Bug is something I found in a grocery store and bought on a lark - it glows! How can you go wrong? You can't. It's probably hard to find, but you never know what's in a bin next to the frozen beef pies at Gristedes. Read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!

Review: Funko Soda Ghostbusters Slimer (Chase) Vinyl 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!
Chase! The Funko Soda Ghostbusters Slimer (Chase) Vinyl Figure doesn't glow very well. Oddly, one of the arms doesn't glow at all - but it's a cute sculpt, and it's a decent item for the price. Read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!

Game Boy Mod using LEGO Set
|
|
  You've ordered custom shells, maybe 3D printed or whittled one. But now you can buy one using LEGO: Behold: The Lego Game Boy has already been modded to play games for real. It's still a work-in-progress, but one Natalie the Nerd has slapped together something using 3D printed buttons and the results are, so far, looking good.
Instructions are not yet complete but you can see the progress thus far. It's a sharp idea - not sure how practical it will be for most people, but practicality isn't usually the point with a lot of mods. It should be fun.

Star Wars Review: Padme Amidala (The Black Series 3 3/4-Inch)
|
|
 Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Padme Amidala (The Black Series 3 3/4-Inch) . She's from 2013, but I was on a break for a while then. With the new Gunship, maybe you'll want to keep her around just in case her Nexu slash marks are more to your liking. (I don't know the Nexu-ness if the new one.)

Walmart Revealies Wheelie
|
|
  Via Walmart: Transformers Toys Retro G1-Inspired Autobot Wheelie 4.5" Action Figure. It goes up for pre-order next week, and it appears to be another all-new mold with a rounded head that vaguely resembles the toy but a form that generally matches the cartoon model.
Outback is also coming, and is a retooled Brawn.
With NYCC next week, a lot of figures are expected to be revealed and go up for pre-order. Fans are reporting finding the G1 carded Seaspray and Brawn now, and it seems Gears and Bumblebee have exited the system.
