Swag Diego Comic Con.
Well, the San Diego Comic Con is over, which means it’s time for the goodies to start hitting eBay, be they freebies or limited edition collectors items that people are now trying to flip. First, we have this cute little Red Hood hood, a promo for DC’s soon to be released Batman: Under The Red [...]
Venture Brothers Rules.
Love that show. Doesn’t air nearly regularly enough, but it takes everything I love (super heroes, pulp fiction, old cartoons… I mean, if I actually listed everything it’d be pages long) and wraps it up in one satirical yet loving package. So it stands to reason that, when it came time to make action figures, [...]
I Want My Mummy.
Or in this case, mummies. 4 Mummies to be precise. Too bad it’s not May, this would have made a great Mother’s Day post… ah well.
Mego-mania.
I never really got into Megos. I’m pretty sure I had a Hulk, a Spiderman, and a Spider-mobile as a little tyke, but that’s really it. I guess I came along just a smidge too late for them. But some people really dig em. They’re very collectible. Case in point. Under a day left, already [...]
Let Us All Take Note:
This is a Captain America Mego from the 70s. A MEXICAN Captain America Mego. Is there some sort of lesson about unity here? Perhaps even a moral that could be applied to the current situation in Arizona? Nah. I just posted it because it looks crusty and old and cool.
My Friend Peter.
As a comic book nerd on a budget, I often rely on the kindness of strangers to keep my reading up to date. And by strangers, I mean my friend Peter, without whom I never would have read so many of the many Blackest Night tie ins. I also rely on him to provide me [...]
WANT! MINE!
Surprisingly, Mego customs are just as big a crap shoot as regular customs. I’m not so sure I’ve ever seen a good one. So please realize just how psyched I am on this one, especially considering the yak faced fellow below was, in my opinion, the best thing to come out of this whole Blackest [...]
Spider Car, Spider Car… why the eff is there a Spider Car?
I never got the Spider Car. I don’t mean that I didn’t have that toy as a kid, cuz I did. What I mean is, even at 4, I never understood why Spider Man needed a car. Aside from the whole crawling up buildings and swinging across town on webs thing, there’s the fact homeboy [...]
