Action Figure Barbecue: Weekly Review Update

By
Back in action, baby!!
Here's a brief summary of the reviews you can find this week on my Amazon review page: Barbecue17's Amazon reviews!

Fish Face (TMNT, Playmates Toys)

Try him with custard!



While this TMNT line is geared towards kids, that doesn't mean old school TMNT fans won't like him! This guy has a perfect style that really harkens back to the absurdity and wackiness of the vintage line.  He fits right in.

 

The Penguin (Batman Unlimited, Mattel)

Pictured here: The World's Strongest Umbrella



This is a great Penguin figure that is in scale with all of your DC Universe Classics figures. He really emulates the art (pictured above) perfectly.  If you like your villains portly and garish, look no further!

 

Netossa (Masters of the Universe Classics, Mattel)

Her name's Netossa.  She's tosses nets.  Are you following this?



Netossa is a gorgeous figure and was the January 2013 Club Eternia subscription figure. Hailing from the She-Ra: Princess of Power cartoon (and vintage toy line) Netossa adds some needed muscle to the ranks of the Great Rebellion.

 

Businessman (Lego Minifigures: Series 8, Lego)

Only the computer in the background dates this picture.
Who doesn't want a greedy little businessman running around their Lego town?  The Businessman is a fun little minifigure from Lego's blind bagged minifigure line.  I guarantee he'll be in the 1% of your toy collection.

     As Skeletor said in the 1987 film Masters of the Universe , "Everything comes to he who waits, and I have waited so very long for this moment." Yes, after one year of preorders, waiting, concepts and preproduction pieces, constant changes, small victories, crushing defeats, and sheer anticipation, Castle Grayskull has finally arrived to my home. Earlier this afternoon my wife texted me a picture of the enormous box sitting in our kitchen and I've been jazzed ever since. Heck, I've been singing the Castle Grayskull song all week now to help myself pass the time. Before I even open the box, I have to say that while there have been plenty of ups and downs on the journey from having Castle Grayskull exist simply as a sketch on paper to existing as an actual product delivered to my door, I think there are some folks that need to be commended. First, regardless of all other issues I don't think anyone can say that Scott Neitlich ("ToyGuru") and the Fo

The Night He Came Home Again! - A 'Halloween 2018' Review

By

When we first learned that Director: David Gordon Green would be talking over the iconic Halloween franchise, my thoughts could best be described as skeptical at best.  How was the guy that brought us Pineapple Express going to bring Michael Myers home again? Also where did Danny McrBride fit it in? Would Blumhouse and Green do the un-thinkable by allowing McBride to dawn the mask, and having the world famous physical comedian wield who knows what as his weapon of choice? Find out the answer to these, and many other questions after the break in our Halloween review....
