    Operation Monster Force

    Don't get me started on a wishlist. I want a wrapped mummy, and a runty little Mr. Hyde, and some lagoon creatures, and a melty wax man with Vincent Price's face, and a fly-man scientist, and...

    Longbox Heroes 1/12 Scale

    I saw a render a little while back of Barry, so he's coming up at some point.

    Big Bad Workshop General

    Sure sure sure. I also left out Naughty or Nice because they and COPS aren't actual parts of the shared Monster Force universe. But seriously, Bill Murphy used to post pictures on the Fresh Monkey Fans Facebook group asking, like, "what do you think of this guy" or "here's something we're...

    Star Treks - Personal Logs

    They had to thread a lot of needles to get to where they wanted the story to be, and I'm not exactly sure where that was. I thought maybe they were leading up to a sort-of reveal of La'an actually being more of a Romulan throwback and seeding that concept in the days before they actually learn...

    Continuing my MCU rewatch

    I made it!! Infinity War An unexpected feeling when this movie came out is how it recaptured the excitement of seeing characters from different movies teaming up together. By now, we'd just come to accept that Tony, Thor and Steve worked together regularly, but seeing Dr. Strange make portals...

    Big Bad Workshop General

    If I'm understanding your question right: Operation: Monster Force Order of the Crimson Moon Soldiers of Fortune If you're asking about sneak peaks and future waves, Fresh Monkey has a Facebook page where they used to be pretty open about future releases and ideas, but it feels like they've...

    Operation Monster Force

    I think my main takeaway from Robo's review video was "shit, did I throw away the backdrop inserts from Wave 1?"

    Operation Monster Force

    If Frankenstein is a Teslapunk monstrosity, I'll take back every negative thing I just said.

    Operation Monster Force

    But...why? Donner is clearly a Frankenstein, just with his own unique story. I thought that was this line's thing: classics with a new angle. Sight unseen, I can't imagine having a Donner Party AND a Frankenstein on the shelf together. It'd be like adding Cyborg to the Doom Patrol when they...

    Operation Monster Force

    I backed out of the Agent Carter chimp spy figure. I just wasn't feeling it after the rush of the initial reveal, and didn't like the look of the second, Buckaroo Bonzai one enough to get excited for the squad. I did however pre-order the 1/18 Star Commanders figure because it comes with a...

    Operation Monster Force

    How did I go this long not knowing you had terrible taste? "Didn't want a brain in a suit" Are you one of those Soviet sleeper agents?

    Operation Monster Force

    I must've made it up in my head, but I would've sworn the Donner Party was initially self-assembled out of shear willpower to protect their descendents. The official listing is the first place I saw that he was assembled by a mad scientist. I honestly prefer the conglomerate revenant story, so...

    Star Wars Black Series

    I woke up to find Anakin sold out on BBTS (and $160 on Amazon), so $28 on Pulse was...agreeable.

    TTRPGs & D&D

    My decision to buy a sci-fi or fantasy novel is based solely on whether or not there's a sequel. Even better if it's a series. I'm looking to get invested! What's the game here? Are you apes or time traveling humans? Exploring a ruined Earth? Like, what do you *do*?

    TTRPGs & D&D

    I recently saw a game review (for the new Starfinder, I think) which said that book's pages aren't as thin as the D&D book's. I imagine they're stand-out flimsy.

    TTRPGs & D&D

    I'd like to hear more on this. I'm a Trek fan who was swayed by the volume of books produced by Modiphius and loaded up with a Humble Bundle a while back. But I'm having trouble clicking with the game itself. I feel like it's trying to stimulate being in a show rather than playing in the...

    DC Studios Movies and Streaming Series Discussion

    Speaking as a Ted Kord fan, I still consider his death a really good one. He went out a hero and drove others to action in ways he couldn't in life. As an added bonus, he gave us a really good time travel story in Booster Gold, so extra win. It helps that he was followed by a really good...

    DC Studios Movies and Streaming Series Discussion

    I did some Googling to see if this is the same White Rabbit I remember from the 90s Superman/Steel comics. It is not.

    Marvel Cinematic Universe Movies and Streaming Series Discussion

    I think we're letting our "Yay, Spidey's in the MCU" cloud our judgements. He lied to a kid's guardian so he could take him out of the country to fight in a battle where the enemy was accidentally exploding fuel tankers on people. Then he tried to get him to drop out of high school to become...

    Star Treks - Personal Logs

    I respect the attempt to make this week's episode in a documentary style. For the most part I enjoyed the format with the interviews and cinema verite. The console close-ups got pretty old, though. As for the story, it suffered a lot from me not being able to keep the names of the aliens...

    Big Bad Workshop General

    I saw those pictures but was going to let them percolate for a bit because my initial thoughts were not kind. I'm imagining these aren't finished figures and they're just fit-testing the packaging, or maybe it's unflattering lighting, because these seem waaay off the production value of...

    Operation Monster Force

    I have a concept of a plan for doing matching file cards for the Joes, Action Force, and Monster Force characters to place them all in my shared-universe head canon, but then I realize it'd be work and move along.

    Action Force and Valaverse

    There was a time when this  was the Joe line i wanted. Recognizable characters but in accurate modern military gear. Condor and Eclipse, as originally colored, were clearly Duke and Scarlett. I think there's an element of Vala trying to recapture the collecting experience from our childhoods...

    General Marvel Legends

    How do you mean? Was this Ryan driving the line in a specific direction? I admit I don't know much about the people involved or their roles. And this is what reminds me why I collect ML. The possibilities of characters that I really enjoy. Yes, let me get a proper Super-Adaptoid or Annihilus or...
