3/10/2010Review - BioShock 2 - Subject Delta

A glance is all it took to convince me that I need to own every BioShock toy that NECA puts out, despite the fact that I'm still working my way through the original game, and haven't even considered the sequel that this particular toy is based on. Is the totally unfamiliar (to me, anyway) Subject Delta a big disappointment, or was that convincing glance rewarded with a fantastic figure? Would you kindly keep reading, and find your answer to that very question.

I've got enough editions of One Shots backed up to do two a week for at least a couple months! But that doesn't mean I wasn't excited to receive this guest edition from AD regular Wes GRogan, who has created this side-splitting comic featuring two of Eternia's star-crossed lovers.

3/4/2010Review - Masters of the Universe Classics - Trap Jaw

Trap Jaw was never meant to know true love. First dates never ended with a good night kiss, second base was always a hook hand away, and real physical passion was a distant grease can and hardware upgrade from reality. Trap Jaw knows love through the soft caress of a collector, and the shelter of a wooden shelf. Will you give him this love he so greatly deserves?

3/3/2010Review - Masters of the Universe Classics - Man-at-Arms

I missed out on Man-at-Arms the first time around. I had entered my Masters of the Universe Classics hibernation and didn't even care that I missed him, but ever since I've bought back into the line, he's been the one key piece of my collection I felt was sorely missing. That has been fixed, but now I have to ask if he was really a "key piece" after all.

2/26/2010Thursday Reviews - February 25th

I've decided to at least temporarily make this feature something that happens every other week instead of every week. It just takes so long, and unless my schedule starts to open up more, I can't invest the time each week. So enjoy this extra giant edition, and come back in two weeks for another enormous list of reviews!
