Something new every day-- unless it's old! Our exciting Figure of the Day continues for you lucky people! Is there anything we won't cover in this column? Probably not!
Recently rerun in a new box! The Hasbro Transformers Generations Legacy Velocitron Speedia 500 Collection Decepticon Crasher was a Walmart exclusive in 2022, which I believe I didn't see much until she started hitting Ross. A lot of stores just don't seem to want to stock their exclusives, so I find them on clearance elsewhere. It works. This toy is Mirage, redecorated to resemble the GoBots character. It came out in 2025 in a new Age of the Primes box, and may be around at a store near you. Read on!
Newish, but sold out! The Onell Design Glyos Infinite Anti-Pheyden Phrangoss was the most ornately painted of the opening trio of Infinite Glyos figures, and it's pretty impressive. There are lots of painted bits on the armor, alternate heads, a blaster arm, a belt, and extra pins for customizing if you're so inclined. There have been at least eight colorways of this guy so far with more to come. Read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!
Classic Review: Jakks Pacific World of Nintendo 8-Bit Mario Action Figure
Something new every day-- but this was posted 10 years ago today! Our exciting Figure of the Day continues for you lucky people! Is there anything we won't cover in this column? Probably not!
Posted 10 years ago! From 2015, Jakks Pacific World of Nintendo 8-Bit Mario Action Figure kicked off a hard-to-find sub-collection of pixel figures. The assortment still runs, but it's all fully realized 3D characters. There are a lot of these I never actually saw, so my collection will probably remain incomplete - but I got Mario. It's not much of a toy, but it can stand on a monitor or door frame because it's super flat. Do read on, and come back tomorrow for a new one!

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: DJ R-3X (Droid Depot). Hasbro made a 6-inch scale one a few years ago, and it's very good. This one is 3 3/4-inch scale and I'd say it's pretty much on par, and cheaper without having to consider inflation. For fifteen bucks, this is just plain good with moving thumbs, three arms, and lots of painted weathering. And an articulated visor, and the headphones, plus also a nicely disguised hole in the head for hat purposes. Disney can do a really great figure when they want to - and here, they surely decided to knock it out of the park.

There's a massive backlog, so let's look at Blokees Transformers Defender Version 01 Shattered Alliance Scavenger Action Figure. Today's figure kicks off what I hope to be a year of weekly Blokees reviews, because they're neat and I want to get them all opened. What better excuse for forced fun than a weekly deadline? This little green guy is a mishmash of the toy and cartoon, not quite matching any particular version but evoking the vibe fairly well. It's three bucks for a little robot guy, which I consider to be worth the asking price. Read on, and come back Monday for more!
Because nobody is reviewing Klickies, the Playmobil "Fi?ures" Figures Protestor is today's figure. She has a can and a drum stick with which to hit it - she's up to cause some chaos. Now that is a blind bag figure. It came out in 2021 and was photographed, in my backlog, waiting to go live. And today's the day! Read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!
Star Wars Review: Force Ghost Yoda (Force Masters / Epic World of Action)
Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Force Ghost Yoda (Force Masters / Epic World of Action). He has no accessories and no paint other than the eyes, but this is a striking figure. The clear blue has a nice shine to it, with decent articulation for a kid's Yoda. It would be nice to have a cane or some other accessory. You've seen other dead versions of Yoda, but this one is probably the Smurfiest. Read the whole review.
Review: Super7 Universal Monsters Lon Chaney as The Wolf Man ReAction+ Figure
Something new every day-- unless it's old! Our exciting Figure of the Day continues for you lucky people! Is there anything we won't cover in this column? Probably not!
Recent! The Super7 Universal Monsters Lon Chaney as The Wolf Man ReAction+ Figure is something I haven't seen in stores. He's been hanging around my desk for a couple of months, menacing G.I. Joes and otherwise being fun to fuss with. (Cobra Commander is borrowing his cane.) I like this one a lot. Read on, and come back tomorrow for more fun!
Review: Hasbro Transformers Studio Series 86 Voyager Autobot Blaster & Eject Action Figure
Something new every day-- unless it's old! Our exciting Figure of the Day continues for you lucky people! Is there anything we won't cover in this column? Probably not!
A rerun that is probably sold out! The Hasbro Transformers Studio Series 86 Voyager Autobot Blaster & Eject Action Figure was a Target exclusive in 2024... and I think I saw it maybe twice there. Weirdly I saw it first at Zia Records below cost, and probably should have just bought it. (I picked up the rerun at Entertainment Earth.) The cartoon redeco has no clear packaging, and arguably better paint. I haven't sold my Kingdom/Legacy one yet... and probably won't sell the clear Eject. I want both. You may feel the same way, especially with all the tapes we got in recent years. Read on!
How the Grinch Stole Rawshark Studios Custom Corps
Via the Glyos News Dump: Rawshark Studios December 28, 2025 Drop Menu. The "Grimch" appears to be a mass-produced figure, but the others are hand-painted customs with fancy capes and cool accessories like a whole dang bike. Grimch Stealth is a very affordable $25, with the more complex guys being $65 or $180 in the case of the bike. We very rarely get Custom Corps drops, so you'll want to check 'em out.
Here's hoping they both open, but "when" is certainly an issue. The Arizona one was supposed to be open in 2022 and keeps getting pushed back. The KCUR article estimates the price of the Kansas theme park at $540 million and that it "could open in 2031."
A couple of weeks ago, The Video Game History Foundation posted the next two episodes of Don't Just Watch TV: The Secrets of Sega Channel on YouTube. I rarely suggest anybody sit down and watch hourlong YouTube videos, but this is a good one. Back in the 1990s, Sega distributed games via cable TV for a monthly subscription fee in markets that I did not live in. Most of these were lost, but they found tons of documentation, marketing, and of course data that you can play. A lot of it is shown here.
Not coincidentally, someone is developing a MiSTer core for Sega Channel which I have not yet personally tried. The video shows all sorts of games, a digital magazine, fan art, and just gobs of goodies that I feel robbed for not having the chance to play (or pay) back in the 1990s. Obviously a lot of the stuff on offer wasn't fantastic, but there are some gems in there. And, seemingly, some of the worst games ever. If by some chance you have an office job where you can watch this in slices this week, I recommend that you do so. It is not a waste of your time.
Classic Review: Hasbro Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Blast Off
Something new every day-- but this was posted 10 years ago today! Our exciting Figure of the Day continues for you lucky people! Is there anything we won't cover in this column? Probably not!
Posted 10 years ago! From 2015, Hasbro Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Blast Off was one of two combiner figures we got in America. This one was a redeco of Quickslinger with a new head - later, Amazon got an actual space shuttle. We also just got a new Age of the Primes one, so any way you slice it this guy is probably unnecessary unless you want to keep the distinctive and unusual plane on the combiner. Maybe you do! He's pretty inexpensive now, so if you want a Blast Off plane you can probably scrape together a few bucks and get this one. Do read on, and come back tomorrow for a new one!
