    Marvel Universe's/Marvel Infinite Drax

    That Figures: REVIEW: Marvel Universe's Drax When this figure was first released Drax was a pretty obscure player in the Marvel Universe but, following last year's big screen adaptation, he's become a more mainstream character, meaning there are probably more collectors now interested in...

    Marvel Universe's/Marvel Infinite Star-Lord

    That Figures: REVIEW: Marvel Universe's Star-Lord I found it an interesting experience to revisit the Marvel Universe line after such a long absence. And I have to admit that I did find myself enjoying posing Star-Lord much more than I expected to. I had memories of the hip/cut-thigh rig...

    LEGO Bionicle Protector of Stone

    That Figures: REVIEW: LEGO Bionicle Protector of Stone My first experience of the Bionicle line - the Protector of Jungle - set the bar pretty high. And sadly, whilst the Protector of Stone is excellent, he's just not quite as excellent as his leafy cousin. That's not to say the...

    Imaginext Pirate Serpent Ship

    That Figures: REVIEW: Imaginext Pirate Serpent Ship The Serpent Ship is a superb playset/vehicle, packed with great interactive play features, cool-looking figures, fun engineering and a design that looks so cool both at rest and during play. With all that said, your enjoyment of this...

    Imaginext Pirates Skeleton Diver

    That Figures: REVIEW: Imaginext Pirate Skeleton Diver The Skeleton Diver is another strong addition to the Imaginext Pirates line-up. But before I can fully recommend it, I just want to briefly touch on the pricing of this set. If you're used to the single-figure with mount/accessory...

    REVIEW: Imaginext Cosmic Chaos Ion Scorpion

    Review of one of the most 80s-tastic toys I've seen in a long while: That Figures: REVIEW: Imaginext Cosmic Chaos Ion Scorpion Every time I come to Review an Imaginext toy, I'm impressed. There's a lot of good in this line and it hits a lot of the things I look for in a range of toys...

    LEGO Bionicle Protector of Jungle

    That Figures: REVIEW: LEGO Bionicle Protector of Jungle As the Protector of Jungle is the first of the new Bionicle sets I've Reviewed, I'm going to briefly touch on a few general impressions of the new line before moving onto the figure itself. If the Protector of Jungle is anything...

    REVIEW: Imaginext Cosmic Chaos Alpha Pod

    Yeah, there's also a bit of a... what did they call it? The Bongle? Kind of look to it. A lot of the Imaginext stuff has that kind of vibe where you look and think, ''what does that look like?''

    REVIEW: Imaginext Cosmic Chaos Alpha Pod

    Is it just me, or is there a major GI Joe Sting Raider vibe to this? That Figures: REVIEW: Imaginext Cosmic Chaos Alpha Pod I have to admit the Alpha Pod is a bit of a mixed bag. Starting with the negatives (so I can end on a positive note) I have a few issues with the overall...

    G.I. Kre-O, Kre-O, MegaBloks CoD and LEGO discussions

    I grabbed the Bionicle Protector of Jungle this morning. It's a really cool figure with some superb articulation (seriously, it's like playing with a GI Joe...) and it even comes with a ''Gatling'' crossbow that launches studs!

    Age of Ultron 4 inch

    I'm more curious as to whether this means they're testing the waters for a MASK return...

    Age of Ultron 4 inch

    I could just about handle the 5 PoA thing if they looked good but they look like something you'd make with a frigging Shaker Maker.

    Agent Carter

    Is it? Ah, I had no idea. And the episodes aren't available to stream? That's stupid. They're all on our On Demand cable service so I figured they'd be the same on the site. They should just put me in charge. I'd get everything right.

    Agent Carter

    It's fine if they changed the premiere to a back-to-back double bill but don't interrupt the airing because of that. Stick a repeat on (or whatever they're filling the gap with) at the end of the run...!

    Agent Carter

    I think the biggest problem with the show is that it's not self-contained episodes. Personally I like that and have never understood that ''oh, I can't follow a story from one week to the next, where do I start if I miss an episode?'' thing. I mean, it's not like their are soap operas that have...

    Agent Carter

    I really liked the jumping shrink scene in the Ant-Man trailer. It looked how I'd always imagined it would. As for Agent Carter, I really enjoyed it, despite my flippant comment above. The plot was a little ''and then we go here and then this happens and we get a clue'' follow-the-breadcrumbs...

    Legends of Futuria

    Thanks. I'm pretty pleased with the way they turned out. I'm not casting anything (the figures are all, as you say, ''donors'') but I am sculpting some pieces (by hand), hand-sewing various costume pieces, (obviously) doing repaints and kitbashing accessories/parts/weapons from a variety of...
