Of Spider-Men and Tiny Fantasies
Good news everyone, it only took me 2 weeks to get back to y’all about the latest line of Marvel Universe figures! While that may seem like a long time, I assure you that…um…alright, I […]

This time last year, if you told I was writing an article solely on upcoming Master Grades, I would’ve thought you were crazy… Bandai’s Master Grade line has been interesting this year, to say the […]
You know what makes this hobby absolutely toxic? When you get some kind of brilliant idea that you need to act on right away, otherwise you’re going to forget about it. Of course, I still […]
Okay, with my first fully-painted 2.0 all finished, I guess it’s time to jump in. I don’t think there’s anything about the Mark II in Titans colors I can say here that I didn’t say […]
This has been quite the exciting year for new High Grade Universal Century releases! This is, of course, mostly due to Gundam Unicorn and its massive fanwank in episode 4, finally gaining us model kits […]
So Baltimore Comic Con was this weekend, and truth be told, it was pretty uneventful, especially when compared to Heroescon or any of the bigger shows (SDCC, NYCC). To be fair though, BCC was an […]
Sideshow Collectibles’ life size, 1:1 scale Terminator T-800 Endoskeleton has taken over one of Forbidden Planet’s windows.
You know, there’s really no better feeling than building a kit right when it’s new. I’ve done this a few times over the years, mainly with GM-related suits, but this is the first time I […]
Ah, the Titans… you just want to hate them, but you can’t. Clearly one of the few factions in the Gundam multiverse that could actually be considered “evil”, nobody can deny the fact that the […]
Ahhh the Brave Series; such a great franchise from Sunrise and Takara that just needs more merchandise these days. Well, it seems like Bandai heard the call and answered it, by putting out more Brave […]
My wife is currently in lovely Seattle, selling at PAX (Prime), and rubbing elbows with a ton of amazing video game developers and playing games that are still months away from being released. Several of […]
Ah Gundam AGE… I have to be honest; I have yet to see a single episode of the series. That’s not to say I don’t want to, far from it; I do intend to watch […]
Very rarely does Bandai put a kit out that makes me want it immediately, especially when it’s not from Unicorn in any way, shape, or form. There are some designs to which I’m weirdly attached, […]
Well, it’s done now. I have to say, there is something uniquely satisfying when you finish a Gundam Master Grade. You see the end result of all those days and hours of work standing right […]
FACT: Amazing Spider-Man celebrates Spidey’s 50th Anniversary this week! Which means a double sized issued of “Amazing Spider-Man” with multiple covers is available for sale now! FACT: Final Fantasy’s 8 protagonist Squall Leonhart birthday is […]
My favorite enemy giant robot type has always been the “evil version”. I’m not sure if I’ve spoken of this before, but it’s just so appealing to me. It’s basically like using the good guy’s […]
One of the coolest parts of the Destiny Gundam is easily its weapons. While most of the designs towards the end of Destiny felt like total rehashes (seriously, is Legend Gundam even any different from […]
I don’t know why, but I’m just on such a crazy Master Grade kick lately. Part of the reason I make HGUCs is because of the variety, and I’ll only do MGs of stuff that […]
I’m pretty sure it’s been made clear over the years that I’m not a very big Gundam Master Grade person. I enjoy building them and whatever, but they aren’t really my thing because they don’t […]
Hey everyone, hopefully by the time you’re all reading this, you’ll have checked out our new store location, a mere four stores down from our previous location. If not, BOO, BOOOO YOU! I suggest that […]
