My girlfriend tolerates a lot of the shit that I buy. Our space is full of boxes of Mighty Max, Monster in my Pocket, Power Rangers etc, as well as a small library of video games I keep adding to, for consoles spanning the past forty years. But then very occasionally there are things I …

In spite of my general discomfort when tasked with sitting (or standing) in front of a camera, I recently appeared on an episode of Toy Polloi's pocket money memories, where I talked about Power Rangers figures! If you can tolerate seeing my face more than I can, the video is below. If you can't, then …
That title sounds like it deserves to be said by an excitable man doing a voice-over on a commercial break during Saturday morning cartoons. Anyway, last year I was overjoyed to open a tub of MOTU M.U.S.C.L.E figures, so I decided to buy the second wave of them. I should mention that I …
It's been a while since I last wrote anything on here. But with it being a new year, I shall endeavor to post somewhat regularly. But we'll see how that goes. Anyway, back in 2017 I reviewed an unofficial Street Fighter II micro playset which featured Guile and Chun-Li, and was based on Guile's …
It's no secret that I harbor a lot of love for spooky colourful toys from the '90s, especially Monster in my Pocket, Boglins and Pocket Shockers, but there are apparently toylines from that era that completely past me by, probably because I quickly succumbed to a heavy Pokemon addiction in 1998.

I've decided not to do a Halloween countdown this year. Every year I spend a whole lot of time writing about spooky stuff for the thirteen days leading up to Halloween, and it actually makes me end up missing out on doing Halloween things. Binging on the Nightmare on Elmstreet series, eating copious amounts of …
I was a Street Fighter II loyalist as a kid. No other arcade fighting game could possibly interest me until one day I watched a kid playing a game in an arcade that was called Mortal Kombat. It looked much gorier than Street Fighter II and it seemed to play a lot faster as well, …

I've mentioned before of my love of Final Fantasy and have already covered some of the toys from FF VII but today I thought I'd take a look at some figures that are a little bit different. It's the 'Square Minimum Collection'! The idea of this line is that they would …
