Hi everyone! It's been forever! I've been incredibly neglectful of this site, and I sincerely apologise! So what's happened since I last posted on here? Not an abundance, truth be told. I recently bought 11 Star Wars Episode 1 Cadbury Chocolate bars. This was definitely a highlight of recent years. Outside of buying long-inedible confectionery, …

Goosebumps ‘Monster Bags’ Action Figures from 1996!
READER BEWARE, YOU'RE IN FOR A SCARE... I don't think I knew anyone at my school who wasn't obsessed with Goosebumps at some point. Even kids who weren't into reading still read R.L. Stine's popular horror novel series. I remember going on holiday was always exciting, as there was a little bookshop in Porthmadog, and …

My Christmas Haul 2020!
As I had predicted, I didn't manage to get any other posts done between my last and this one, as I've been very busy quaffing beer and shovelling festive food into my mouth, and not doing a whole lot of much else. I have managed to tear myself away from eating and drinking for a …

Imperial “Classic Movie Monster” Series Action Figures from 1986!
If ever there was a series of action figures that I'd encounter again and again as a kid, it would have be Imperial's Classic Movie Monsters line. Imperial Toys were known predominantly for their cheap dinosaur figures, but did have a few licensed products like these toys based on Universal's iconic monsters, as well as …

Mezco Cinema Of Fear “Tiny Terror” horror Action Figures from 2009!
I've documented my love of Hasbro's Heroes line before- Star Wars Galactic Heroes, Indiana Jones Adventure Heroes, and Marvel's Superhero Squad. They're essentially cutesey, chunky, wee action figures which are intended for younger fans of each franchise. Each line was released in the late 2000s, but the Star Wars Galactic Heroes line is still …

Slashers From The 8-bit Console Era!
Video games of the horror genre are by no means a rarity these days. This year alone has seen the release of games like the psychological horror Layers of Fear 2, as well as survival horror titles like the Resident Evil 2 remake and Days Gone. In the spirit of Halloween, I thought I'd take …

And that also means another Boglins post, seeing as Boglins were originally released at the tail end of the creatures movie craze of the late '80s.
