Action figure reviews, quick pics, Wayback Wednesdays, and shots of our collections
There have been some pretty random toy lines. And there have been some pretty long awaited toylines. For most, this would fit under the random category. But for me, it’s one I’ve waited for for years! Toys based on the greatest action figure tribute of all time, Adult Swim’s Robot Chicken!
I just wanted to give a quick peek at a few of the newer Glyos Sytem extra parts released in combination with the parts shown in my previous extensive review of Glyos figures Pheyden, Gobon, and Beanbot.
Next from DC Universe Classics 15 is the Teen Titans’ goth girl, Raven.
I’m not quite sure how, but trs from the Fwoosh, who got us some really early packaged pics of DC Universe Classics wave 11 almost a year ago, has done it again. Now he has got his hands on what is probably one of the first sets of the Wal-Mart exclusive wave 14 in the United States – at least not ones that fell out of the back of a truck in China.

OMAC from DC Universe Classics Wave 15 gives us a glimpse of “the world that’s coming” and apparently it’s full of big heads, huge eyes and maximum mohawks! For those too young to remember, OMAC – One Man Army Corps – was another of Jack Kirby’s creations for DC Comics in the 1970’s along with New Gods, Mr. Miracle, The Demon and Kamandi. OMAC is basically a revamp of the Captain America concept, but instead of WWII or even present day, OMAC’s stories are set in the near future or as Kirby phrased it in every issue; “the world that’s coming!”
