Another day, another gift idea list! In the last couple of years Adventure Time has become one of those trail blazing pop culture phenomenons that just doesn’t seem to have a foreseeable end to its […]
FACT: I HAVE NOT BEEN DOING A GREAT JOB OF KEEPING UP ON THIS PART OF THE BLOG, A DOZEN APOLOGIES! NYCC prep has been crazier than usual. IT HAS BEGUN! Revealed back at San […]
… are now in stock and available for mail order. You do so here. Order in increments of 20 and receive sealed cases. OH! Need to mention they’re totally rad. They are.
I’ll be honest; from time to time, I forget that McFarlane Toy’s are still around. Which is probably due to the fact that I’m not 13 anymore so I don’t give a damn about Spawn, […]
Still no Wolverine Legends, or whatever the crap they’re supposed to be called. I’m hearing September at this point, supposedly comics shops exclusives, so that’s cool. Well it’s only cool if I can snag both […]
Swear to Glob that’s probably the unintentional dirtiest title attached to an article of mine to date. In case you somehow missed the news yesterday, New York Comic Con 2013 tickets go on sale tomorrow […]
It’s been hella fortnight since we’ve last taken a look at Heroclix-stuff, mostly because Square Enix drops enough product on a weekly basis to that point where I can ignore the tabletop gaming section. However, […]
Custom action figure artist extraordinaire Sillof was recently commissioned by comedian/actor Pattton Oswalt to create some suh-weeeeeeet toys… and Forbidden Planet has The Russ Meyer-inspired Star Wars mashup line Faster, Empire! Strike! Strike! on display!!!! […]
What is the haps Forbidden Planet Faithful? No time for crappy intro jokes, we got a ton of new stuff to look at, so let’s get to it! If you’re an avid gamer like me, […]
Whelp! I was going to talk about all the new “Pacific Rim” swag we currently have in at FPNYC, but it seems that Jeff beat me to the punch. In his defense, I probably shouldn’t […]
Alright so y’all bought Hawkeye #11 this week right? You better have, because I’m going to be writing all about it. Soon. This time it’s all about toys. So we’ve gotten a but-ton (Ton O’ […]
As much as I hate to admit it, I’m not much of a Transformers collector anymore. I think Prime Knockout last year was the breaking point for me, so these days I only go for […]
Summer is back, and if it’s not personal this time, I’d be shocked. I’m spare you the exact details of sweat I’ve produced so far this weekend, but just know that it’s been A LOT. […]
If you couldn’t tell over the past few years, I love the Brave franchise. Like many others, GaoGaiGar was obviously my first, but once the other shows became accessible, I totally jumped on them. One […]
“Well, I wasn’t going to buy this, but now I guess I should…” Those are the famous last words of many toy collectors. Earlier this season, we saw the premier of Unofficial Sentai Akibaranger Season […]
REAL TALK (note how real that is with the use of capitalization, caps-lock AND italics): Forbidden Planet NYC tends to get a lot of stuff in on a weekly basis. Some of this stuff isn’t […]
Motivation strikes once again! I’ve noticed my favorite “II” mobile suits keep ending up as webshop exclusives, and I, in my infinite wisdom, have purchased all of them. The White Dingo GM Sniper II, the […]
Working a closing shift at Forbidden Planet, wandering the asiles, when I noticed on our shelves a fantastic new Yotsuba model kit from Kotobukiya I hadn’t seen before… Dressed in her usual outfit for a […]
Once again, motivation hits me like a brick to the face. And that’s a good thing! Especially since in this case, I’m incredibly motivated by what I’m actually building, not by the fact that it […]
