Transformers Generation Warpath

Chris | June 29, 2011

By Loran Don’t you hate it when Hasbro saves the awesome stuff for last? I never really had this problem up until a few years ago, with the G.I. Joe movie figures. The last wave—the one with City Strike Snake-Eyes and Duke, Jungle Ripcord, etc was IMPOSSIBLE for me to find here (I never even [...]

Transformers Human Alliance Jazz Review

Chris | June 29, 2011

By Loran Like I said the reviews for Icepick and Thunderhead, I couldn’t get into Transformers Human Alliance originally because it was all characters I already had. Buying the same character more than once just bores me unless it’s some super-duper upgrade or something. But one of them caught my eye; probably because of how [...]

A is for Asphyxiation

Morgan Pielli | June 29, 2011

By Unkiedev There comes a time in any comic book collector’s life where they must make a choice: do I buy supplies to protect my collection or do I just continue throwing them in a dingy old pizza box beneath my dead rat collection? Both plans have their merits, though only one of them is [...]

Lalala Mango And Animu

Morgan Pielli | June 29, 2011

By Shannon H Manga Explosion 2011 seems to have calmed down a little, at least for the time being. Still, there is a decent offering of things to choose from this week if you’re looking for something new to read, such as new Oh! My Goddess, Sergeant Frog, .hack/sign GU, or Negima Neo. Frankly, most [...]

Department of Redundancy Dept

Morgan Pielli | June 22, 2011

By Unkiedev Three DC books out this week can sum up where the comic book industry started, where it went and where it is going. To whit: Justice League of America #58, Brightest Day Aftermath #1 of 3, and Flashpoint: Kid Flash #1 of 3. Superhero comics became the driving genre because they were amazingly [...]

Phantasmagorical Fantasy

Morgan Pielli | June 22, 2011

By Shannon H June is really proving to be quite the month for manga collecting! Another really full week is ahead of us, fellow otaku, so loosen those purse strings and get ready for excitements such as new Soul Eater, Higurashi, 20th Century Boys, NGE: Campus Apocalypse, and of course, Full Metal Alchemist. There are [...]

Rise of the Green Lantern Merch part 2

Chris | June 22, 2011

By Chris Troy 52 is a pretty significant number to the DC Universe. Post-”Infinite Crisis” (by Geoff Johns and ton of talented artists), there were 52 different universes established. Then there was the follow up mini-series to IC titled “52“, which was a 52 weekly issue mini series, also written by Johns, as well as [...]

Transformers DOTM Cyberverse Powerglide review

Chris | June 22, 2011

By Loran Come on, who doesn’t love the Minibots? When the Universe Powerglide figure came out in 2008, I found myself rather liking the design, but I could never accept him as Powerglide. He was just too big! Yeah, I know, having your figures at a near “proper” scale to their vehicles is nice, but [...]

Reveal the Shield Optimus Prime Review

Chris | June 19, 2011

By Loran As a kid, I had a lot of Optimus Prime figures, but there was only one that I considered “my own”. I grew up with Transformers G2, and as such, never had a shot at G1 Prime or Powermaster Prime. I actually got every Prime released during G2 at some point… except the [...]

Costume, Partly

Morgan Pielli | June 15, 2011

By UnkiedevCOSTUME CHANGE EDITION Costumes shouldn’t be changed, ever. Trust me, I know. I’ve been wearing the same feety pajamas and diaper my parents brought me home from the hospital in for over thirty years now. Sure it’s smelly, falling apart, and a mental/physical health hazard to all who approach me. That’s not the point…it’s [...]
