What's Your Obsession

Sideshow Collectibles sent over two of their Star Wars 12″ figures for review, Commander Cody and the Gammorean Guard. I’m sure the goal was to get me addicted to another line so I can throw even more of my money at them. I took an extensive look at Cody, let’s check out whether I’ve been [...]

A couple images of a prototype 1/6th scale Ryu from Street Fighter have been making the rounds, apparently from a company I’m unfamiliar with, Toys Logic. I was pretty curious about it so I looked for more info and found that Jerry from Popcultureshock had provided some. I hadnt seen or heard of that figure [...]

I normally don’t post when Sideshow Collectibles tosses up their preview galleries, although I’ll probably do it more often in the future, but I gotta say I was blown away at how gorgeous this Commander Cody 12″ figure is. Though it damn well better be, considering the price! This goes up for preorder for $125 [...]

I knew they were making this figure but I hadn’t seen any previews of it. It’s quite nice for Astroboy fans. The Astro Boy Collectible figure features: – Approximately 9 inches tall – Over 22 points of articulation – 2 sets of interchangeable posing hands – Open chest with positive “blue” energy inside – Battery-operated [...]

Saw this over on a message board, it apparently sold on Ebay for $400 + $200 shipping. I’ve also heard there’s been a variety of other 1:6 scale Star Wars ships, I’ll try to get more pictures of those later. Pretty neat stuff!

Certainly an interesting choice, I never suspected they’d release this model. Full specs + pics under the cut.

As presented by : http://www.rebelscum.com/story/front/Gentle_Giant_R2D2_Statue_127515.asp Check the pictures, he’s looking sweet as hell. Optional accessories, opening and closing doors, 1/6th scale. Kind of expensive. That said, he looks like the best R2-D2 released to date and he’d go well with all the 1/6th figures released.

Enterbay is releasing a new version of their incredibly popular Bruce Lee from Fist of Fury. It’s limited to 500 and they made sure that this run wouldn’t push the overall run of the figure past 5000, their initial goal. It looks like it will be around $360 US, which is far beyond my budget [...]

I wasn’t expecting much from this figure. I’d heard SO MANY bad things about Medicom and their 12″ figures, mainly the Metal Gear line. Cartoony and crappy likenesses, joints breaking from the slightest touch, ditching lines after a couple of figures, and way too expensive for what you get. I gotta say, I think most [...]
