E.V.A.: Motor City Comic Con Day Two…Invasion of the Cosplayers!

I had forgotten how much I enjoy the energy of a convention. I totally love being surrounded by so many like-minded individuals who aren’t afraid to let their geek flags fly high. Day two at Motor City Comic Con was everything you expect from a convention; crowds, comics and of course cosplayers. I am always impressed by the effort people put into their costumes.

Equipment: Marvel Legends Series 1 6-Inch Captain America20th Anniversary Figure

When I first saw the press release celebrating the 20th anniversary of Captain America, I was completely confused. Captain America made his debut in 1941 so it wasn’t the right anniversary. Then I thought about the Marvel movies and how many people love those films. The first movie in the MCU was Iron Man and that came out in 2008. Captain America: The First Avenger premiered in 2011. My research led me to 2001 which is 20 years ago. Continue reading

Equipment: Star Wars the Black Series 6-Inch Artillery Stormtrooper Figure Amazon Exclusive

The Star Wars Black Series line from Hasbro is my favorite thing to collect. I like the poseability and the quality of the sculpts which makes them both fun to play with, while also being attractive enough to display on a shelf. That works for both the openers and the in box collectors. As for me, I am an opener. I think it is a waste to keep everything mint in package, but that is just me.  My favorite thing to do with my Black Series figures is action figure photography. I have found that Stormtroopers make the best subjects and are quite photogenic. The real truth is that the joints do not stand out in photos thus making the Stormtroopers look real.  So basically, every time Hasbro releases a new trooper I have to pick it up for troop building.
