Equipment: Hasbro Marvel Legends 12 inch Iron Man Figure Review

Posted on 2017/02/12 by James

There are a lot of overpriced, cool looking figures out there. DSCN4706Companies like Square Enix or Hot Toys make some truly gorgeous figures but when you are paying upwards of 100 bucks it is hard to break them out of their boxes to play with them. They really are some amazing looking figures but there comes a time when you have to choose the lower price point in case you break something. Trust me, I have done it and then been out a pocket full of cash

Speaking of figures, Hasbro has released a 12 inch version of their Legends line and it may be something you should look into. This 12 inch Legends line includes Spider-Man, Captain America and the greatest Avenger (in my opinion) Iron Man. The Iron Man figure is what we are reviewing today. Standing approximately 12 inches tall and a very heavy figure with approximately 30 points of articulation. Continue reading →

Equipment: Review One: 12 Collective Mr. Sulu Figure from Mezco Toyz

Posted on 2017/01/27 by James

I am not easily impressed by toys. There has to be something DSCN4624special, that certain wow factor to make me say, well, “Wow!” This figure gave me one of those “Wow” moments. When producing an “action figure” one should make it so the customer will be able to join the action. One of the things that I love when it comes to action figures is, the ability to pose the figure in a multitude of positions. Some toy companies have embraced the trend toward 5 point posability and that is a travesty.  We are thankful there are companies like Mezco that know how to make an incredible, posable figure. The moment I opened up this figure the words that came to mind were, “incredible”, “amazing” and since it is a Sulu figure, “Oh, my!” Continue reading →
