Action figure reviews, quick pics, Wayback Wednesdays, and shots of our collections
With the MattyCollector.com sale this month, fans had the opportunity to complete their 6-inch collections of the four core Ghostbusters with Peter Venkman. It’s been a long wait since Egon Spengler first became available at San Diego Comic-Con last year and we saw production samples of Venkman at C2E2.

I’d heard Mattel recently upgraded the bodies of their 3 3/4″ DC action figure line, and the results are impressive.
A couple of weeks ago, HasbroToyShop.com started selling their Marvel Universe Wave 8 figures online, it was a quick sellout, and I missed it. I was really looking forward to this wave, as some of the figures included in this wave have some nice, unique sculpts and upgraded articulation. So as soon as they re-listed the figures on the site, I didn’t hesitate to pick these guys up. I managed to pick up Juggernaut, the A.I.M.

This week, while I was perusing the toy aisles of my local Toys R Us, I was surprised to see toys from the movie, The Last Airbender. I’m a big fan of the animated series – I even bought some of the figures that Mattel had made for the cartoon a couple of years ago.
After finding out that Spin Master has the toy license for The Last Airbender movie figures, I was crossing my fingers that the movie would be a success and that the toys would turn out well. The cartoon had a lot of fans, both kids and adults – this would be a good opportunity for Spin Master to get in on some of the collector market if the movies do well as a planned trilogy. Now the first wave of toys have come out, and I managed to pick up Aang and his flying bison, Appa.
Did Spin Master do a good job? Let’s have a look!

Honestly, we all know that Two-Face from the Dark Knight Movie Masters line is a figure that should have came out about 2 years ago. Oh well – good things come to those who wait…
