REVIEW: MAFEX BATMAN: HUSH - CATWOMAN!

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

MAFEX BATMAN: HUSH - CATWOMAN!

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

Today we take a look at the MAFEX Catwoman from Batman: Hush! Another home run for MAFEX for their DC Batman: Hush figures, that Cat-lady is very articulated! Like her counterpart from the comic book, she can get into all sorts of acrobatic poses, and is pretty easy to mess with (that came out wrong). My only issue with her would be that she’s the same price as the Batman and Superman figures, while clearly, it’s a lot less plastic. If they knocked down $20-25 from the price, that would have made a lot of sense.

Selina (huh? Spoilers!) comes with 2 extra heads (one angry face, and one with the goggles up), 5 extra pair of hands, her whip and an extra waist piece, to switch if you want her to have her whip attached as a belt.

The whip is actually several parts joined together with pegs, so you can switch it in different positions.

“MEOW!”

“Hello there!”

“Hisssss!”

The face without the goggles looks just like in the comic books.

Pretty great balance!

And now, the traditional “Let’s copy poses directly from the comic book”!

“I don’t want to fight you!”

“Interesting. My man wears jewelry…”

One of the first poses I wanted to try when I got her. I missed out on the DC Direct statue years ago, and its price is now insane, so I’m happy I can at least display them that way!

“Your breath smells like tuna…”

DC Direct Batman: Hush Catwoman, MAFEX Batman: Hush Catwoman and a DC Direct mini-statue of Batman: Hush Catwoman.

The MAFEX Batman: Hush line so far…

Catwoman then realized I actually have 2 cats at home and demanded a photo session with them.

“Join me, and together, we can rule Gotham City!”

“Seen anything interesting, lately?”

“WE RIDE AT DAWN!”

The next ones to come out should be the Joker and Hush himself. They are scheduled to be released in the next few months, but with the usual delays we get from MAFEX, we can’t really know. Let’s hope they announced more characters from that awesome story-arc. Poison Ivy or the Riddler, anyone?

More news at 11:00… Meeeeow!

REVIEW: JAZWARES’ AEW UNRIVALED SERIES 4

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

JAZWARES’ AEW UNRIVALED SERIES 4

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

This week, we’re taking a look at the AEW Unrivaled Series 4 from Jazwares/Wicked Cool Toys! Another solid wave, with 4 brand new “first time ever” figures, and 2 repeats…but what repeats! That new Kenny Omega figure is spectacular! Here’s a look at the wave in their packaging -

Whole wave

Kenny Omega / Cody (Rhodes)

Santana / Ortiz

Sammy Guevara / (Broken) Matt Hardy

Old meets new! Series 1 Kenny Omega meets Series 4

Series 1 Cody meets Series 4 Cody

Finally! My partners in crime from the Inner Circle!

Oh yes! Le Spanish God! Our team, Le Sex Gods is reunited!

The new Kenny Omega figure is now one of my all-time favorite wrestling figures, not only from AEW, but in general! The likeness is spot-on! The expression, the gear, etc… Kudos to the guys at Jazwares/Wicked Cool Toys! It’s perfect. He comes with an extra set of hands.

I hear the battle cry…Under the Devil’s Sky…

The One Winged Angel screams… It fuels my Hopes and Dreams… THE BEST BOUT MAAAACHIIIIINE!

Cody comes with an extra ‘serious’ headsculpt, in case you don’t want to display him with the goofy smile head (which I will, because…goofy smile head!). The details on his gear, belt and soft goods t-shirt are great. In that instance, this is one of those where the chase version is a bit better, since it has the Metal Gear Solid inspired logo with Cody’s dog on it, and since I am a sucker for anything MGS, I really wouldn’t mind having the variant instead.

ADRENALINE… IN MY SOUL… SOMETHING SOMETHING CODY RHODES!

Did you know: Cody Rhodes is the son of legendary wrestler, The American Dream, Dusty Rhodes!

Santana and Ortiz, aka “Proud and Powerful” (or formerly LAX in Impact) both look amazing. It’s tough to pick a favorite in that wave, because there’s so many good ones. Santana comes with an extra head (from when he feuded with Moxley and had an eye patch), extra hands, a ‘rock in a sock’ madball weapon and a puerto-rican flag. Ortiz comes with a second headsculpt (with braids), extra hands, and the ultimate weapon: LA CHANCLA (best toy accessory EVER!).

If I wasn’t Proud, then I wouldn’t be Powerful… If I wasn’t Proud, then I wouldn’t be Powerful…

THE ULTIMATE WEAPON !

Sammy Guevara, the Spanish God comes with sunglasses, his leather jacket and a few signs saying “HIT ME UP!”, like he usually show to the camera during picture-in-picture commercials (which is a freaking clever way to still do something while the commercials are on, if you ask me!).

Last but not least, “Broken” Matt Hardy comes with his glorious Broken attire, but also with his trusted accomplice, the drone Vanguard-1, which also has a Matt Hardy hologram. You read that right, the accessory has accessories! Do the people at Jazwares have any limit??

DELETE!! DELETE!! DELETE!!

YEEEEeeeEEEEESSSS!

Vanguard-1! I knew you’d come!

The hologram’s neck is also articulated!

And now, it’s time to play!

The Inner Circle! We’re Back in Black, baby!

Series 1 Kenny Omega vs Series 4 Kenny Omega

Series 1 Cody vs Series 4 Cody

Did you say “versus”?

Oh no! CROSS RHODES!

Series 4 Cody just layed Series 1 Cody down with a Cross Rhodes!

Double or Nothing 2021 will have Kenny Omega face PAC and Orange Cassidy for the AEW World Championship, but Kenny has never beaten PAC!

V-TRIGGEEEEEEEER!

Kenny is setting up PAC for the…

ONE WINGED ANGEL !

This match is going to be insane! I cannot wait for Double or Nothing.

Santana and Ortiz about to hit their finisher…

STREET SWEEPER!

STREET SWEEPER!

That’s it for Series 4! Series 5 will have Luchasaurus, Jungle Boy, SCU’s Frankie Kazarian and Scorpio Sky, and new versions of Jon Moxley and ‘Hangman’ Adam Page. It is already being dispatched to those who ordered it early, but this time, I had a brainfart, and forgot to pre-order it once I got my paycheck (silly me!), and now, Luchasaurus is sold out, and I’m very very sad! (I think I’ll just pick and choose from now on, since I’m starting to run low on space in that AEW ring, so I will try to get at least the SCU guys and maybe the Jurassic Express two-pack, even though I would have prefered the single version Jungle boy).

Series 6 has already been announced and will have 4 repeats (Jericho, MJF, Penta and Rey Fenix) with Jake Hager and most importantly, Hikaru Shida as new characters.

More news at 11:00… DYNAMITE!

REVIEW: NECA’S DOUG JONES COLLECTION

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

NECA’S DOUG JONES COLLECTION!

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

This week, we are taking a look at some of the NECA figures from the Guillermo Del Toro movies, which we will dub ‘The Doug Jones Collection’, since Doug played most of those characters. But first, an introduction from Doug Jones himself!

ToyFarce note: I made a complete fool of myself when I wrote ‘Matilda’ instead of ‘Ofelia’ in the request, since I wanted to joke that he also played her. This is why you always double check before you send something, folks. Let it be a lesson for all of us. And many thanks to Doug Jones for delivering this!

Doug Jones is the actor extraordinaire that played all sorts of monsters and creatures in all your favorite movies and TV shows. From the Gentlemen in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Abe Sapiens in the Hellboy movies, all sorts of monsters in Guillermo Del Toro’s movies, the Silver Surfer in the Fantastic four movie, and many more. These days, he can be found as Lt. Saru in Star Trek: Discovery. The fact that he can act so well without showing his face is a testament to his talent. I personally love the way he moves his hands, and can sometimes recognize him just from the way his hands ‘act’. And now, the figures!

THE AMPHIBIAN MAN from THE SHAPE OF WATER

A great figure from NECA. The ‘yellow’ skin parts are a bit transparent, and the figure has some shine on it, to make it look like it’s wet. It comes with a base with chains and cuffs, a different ‘screaming’ head and some eggs (the Amphibian man’s favorite snacks!). The movie was a masterpiece (as is tradition with Guillermo Del Toro), and the figure does it justice. Doug Jones did an amazing job in that one too, even if naysayers will say that it’s basically just a silent Abe Sapiend from Hellboy. The articulations are a bit meh, but nothing unusual for NECA. It’s not like the character was a professional gymnast in the movie anyway…

Some amazing details on that figure.

Mmmmh…eggs.

STELLAAAAAAA !

The figure from the movie, next to the book about the movie

So… that’s me?

I would have preferred googly eyes!

Here’s a great review of the movie:

THE FAUN from PAN’S LABYRINTH

Another amazing movie from Guillermo Del Toro, Pan’s Labyrinth came out in 2006 (What?!). The 3 following figures are from that movie. A newer version of the Faun came out recently, with his ‘older’ look from the beginning of the movie (in the movie, he seems to age backwards and become younger every time we see him). Doug Jones played multiple characters in the movie, all of them being, as usual, creatures with tons of make-up and prosthetics. The figure comes with 2 bags, and is an amazing piece of plastic.

Beautiful art on the box

It’s pretty amazing that it can stand, considering the legs are bent backwards. Great job, NECA!

The details are insane!

Hi, I’m Doug Jones - I’m also Doug Jones!

But wait, guys! There’s more!

OFELIA (NOT MATILDA) from PAN’S LABYRINTH

Like mentioned at the beginning of the review, I wrote ‘Matilda’ instead of ‘Ofelia’ in the request for an introduction to Doug Jones, so I will keep calling her ‘Ofelia (not Matilda)’. This is the cross I have to bear. Another great figure from Pan’s Labyrinth. She comes with a pillar, her fairy tale book, the key that she gets from the giant toad, and 3 little fairies.

Beautiful box, once again

Inside

The pillar is actually made of stone, and is quite heavy!

Ofelia (not Matilda) also comes with the Faun’s 3 pet fairies.

The fairies are nice, but cannot stand on their own.

She also comes with her fairy tale book, which can be opened and has great details inside.

The key, which Ofelia (not Matilda) got from a giant toad

So… Did you bring me a snack or something?

Movie version…

Toy version!

THE PALE MAN from PAN’S LABYRINTH

The Pale Man, another character coming right out of the mind of Guillermo Del Toro. The figure looks great. Maybe too great, considering we can see all the details of his loose skin hanging and all… You should not open that figure before eating! The Pale Man comes with his massive chair, and a plate of eyes.

Creepy!

King of the castle! I have a chair!

Would you like to sit on my lap? - OH HELL NO!

Peek-a-boo! I see you!"

Eyes, anyone? No? More for me, then!

Sometimes, there is such a thing as too much details. Eww.

“I’m just a sexy boy *SEXYYYY BOOOOY!*”

Also, someone posted that, which cannot be unseen…

The Guillermo Del Toro figure collection from NECA (or Doug Jones collection) is a great way to celebrate the movies. They just look amazing, packed with details, and will look great on any movie figure shelf in your collection.

NECA’s Doug Jones Collection

ToyFarce would like to once again thank Doug Jones (and Cameo) for the great introduction!

More news at 11:00…with a ton of make-up and prosthetics!

REVIEW: LEGO STAR WARS DARTH VADER AND SCOUT TROOPER HELMETS

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

LEGO STAR WARS DARTH VADER AND SCOUT TROOPER HELMETS!

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

Star Wars day (May, the 4th) was only a few days ago, and these 2 lego sets showed up at my door right on time! (Reviews are usually posted earlier, but I had not finished those 2 yet. Apologies for the delay! I’m sure plenty of collectors were worried about not seeing a review posted at the usual time, right?).

The Darth Vader box is slightly bigger than all the other ones.

I had already picked up the first 3 that came out last year (Boba Fett, a Stormtrooper and a Tie Fighter pilot) and had been blown away by the quality, size and fun aspect of those sets. Let’s get started with the Scout Trooper!

5 bags

Step 1: DONE!

Bag 1

Bag 2

Bag 3

Bag 4

Bag 5

The Scout Trooper looks pretty good as a Lego! It took around 1h/1h30 to build, while watching TV. It would probably take a shorter time if you focus just on that. I like those Lego sets that can be done pretty fast! Now, it’s Vader time (the Darth one)!

5 bags as well

Step 1: DONE! (That took a while! Very difficult!)

Bag 1

Bag 2

Bag 3 (Conehead Vader!)

Bag 4 (Mohawk Vader!)

“It’s not just a phase, mom!”

Bag 5 (front)

Bag 5 (back)

Those Lego sets are very fun and look great on a shelf. Lego has also made some Marvel ones (Iron Man, which does not look good AT ALL to me, and more recently Carnage and Venom), and a Batman one just came out, which I might have to pick. Here are the 2 new Star Wars ones, along with the previous ones!

They can still be found on the Lego online store, or anywhere that sells Lego sets.

More news at 11:00… I find your lack of bricks disturbing!

REVIEW: MCFARLANE TOYS KICKSTARTER REMASTERED SPAWN TRILOGY PACK!

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

MCFARLANE TOYS KICKSTARTER REMASTERED SPAWN TRILOGY PACK!

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

Behold! Today, we’re checking the long awaited Kickstarter Remastered Spawn Trilogy Pack from McFarlane Toys. I had a lot of fun with it throughout the weekend, so check our social media or the hashtag #loveyoukickstarterspawn for all the shenanigans. But now, it was time to open it.

Obviously, here are the faces I made when opening it:

Here are some pictures of the packaging, which, as promised, was pretty freaking awesome. It really felt like opening something fancy, and now, I can’t go back to just opening normal blister cards. We have higher standards now, come on! Talking about blister cards, the blister card found inside the box is also a call-back to the original one from 1995, with the comic book and everything. Like a ‘retro’ Spawn figure, if you will! It is “collector-friendly”, which means easily resealable.

Here are the figures outside of the box! They’re heavier than i thought, but still have a good balance, thanks to the massive cape! (yeah, yeah, I know, it’s not removable)

CLASSIC SPAWN:

The classic Spawn comes with the classic costume (duh!). It’s a modern remastered version of the classic 1995 action figure (which you can see on a few pictures below). It’s a beautiful figure. That’s my opinion. Sure, the shoulders can’t move much because of the cape, aNd wE DiDn’T gET aN aB-cRuNcH (yells at the sky), but it still is a beautiful figure. The colors are great, with a nice contrast between the black/white and the bright red and green. It’s a great Spawn figure. I’m happy I got it. The screaming head is a bit meh, since it comes as a ‘block’ with the neck, but it’s a nice looking skull nonetheless. The trilogy pack version comes with a plethora of accessories too.

MODERN SPAWN

Modern Spawn comes with slight modifications to his suit, to look a bit more like the modern outfit (big glove, huge boot…). The weird thing is that the boot is on the wrong foot, and you would think that Todd McFarlane would know on which foot the big boot is supposed to be, but oh well! The unmasked head is gnarly AF, and looks awesome (McFarlane Toys knows how to do gnarly, see Tortured Souls, etc…). The Al Simmons head is also a great sculpt. Kinda look like a black Dominic Purcell (which I can’t unsee now), but it looks great on the figure (and it has a neck!). This one comes with a big gun that the other ones don’t have. Also a call-back to the original 1995 unmasked Spawn variant, which I also had, with pics added below.

ARTIST PROOF SPAWN

The Artist Proof Spawn is the ‘unpainted’ version. McFarlane Toys used to do that a lot in the past (the movie Spawn figure had an unpainted version like that too, which was given at the Cannes film festival, and I grabbed a bunch of them back then), so it made sense to have this one as a part of the set. It’s a great figure, in the sense that since it’s not painted, your eyes are drawn to all the details and the sculpt. It comes with its very own ‘necroplasm’ effect, and some of the other versions’ same accessories, but unpainted.

I’m pretty happy with the set (in case you couldn’t tell!). It will look awesome on a nice display (which I have yet to figure out), and I’m glad I participated in the Kickstarter campaign. All figures come with a stand that says “Record-setting action figure”, which is a nice touch. Gotta rub that in, right?

The Trilogy Pack also came with a signature plaque, from someone called Tord McForlove. Excellent job, Tord!

“Dude, what the hell?”

Todd McFarlane teased that the next Kickstarter project might be a Medieval Spawn. My body is ready!

“Where is my Kickstarter??”

ALIEN DAY REVIEW: NECA’S ALIEN ULTIMATE “BIG CHAP” + SDCC EXCLUSIVE GLOW-IN-THE-DARK VERSION

ALIEN DAY REVIEW:

NECA’S ALIEN ULTIMATE “BIG CHAP” + SDCC EXCLUSIVE GLOW-IN-THE-DARK VERSION!

Today is April, 26th, which means it’s Alien Day. Alien Day is celebrated by fans worldwide every year on April, 26th (4/26), which refers to LV-426, one of the three moons orbiting Calpamos in the Zeta Reticuli system, the same moon on which the UNSCC Nostromo landed in 2122 (or 1979, for us). Every year, a ton of new merch is announced for Alien Day: new action figures, books, t-shirts,... for all fans of Xenomorphs (or Weyland-Yutani) around the world.

And for that occasion, I picked the NECA Alien Ultimate “Big Chap” and its SDCC Glow-in-the-dark counterpart from my (depression) pile and finally opened them. Here are the pics!

(That nearly went weird…)

REVIEW: NECA’S TOONY TERRORS, SERIES 4!

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

NECA’S TOONY TERRORS SERIES 4!

It's Wednesday. You know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

This week, we’re looking at the 4th wave of Toony Terrors from NECA! It took me a while to get into those, but after I saw the first wave at my local Gamestop (RIP Gamestop, which are all gone in Northern Europe), I knew I had to pick them at some point. When series 4 was announced, I was super happy with the line-up.

Regan from the Exorcist, Beetlejuice from… Beetlejuice, Sam, the mascot from Trick ‘r treat, and Victor Crowley from Hatchet! Yes, please! Let’s dive into those individually

First off, the star of “The Exorcist”, Regan! Regan comes with an alternate head and her signature pea-soup-green vomit (Aaaaw, so cute!). The figure doesn’t have a lot of articulation (neck, arms and feet), but you don’t really get Toony Terrors figures for their articulations, now, do you? The cartoony likeness is great. To quote the Murderdolls, “Regan, it was love at first fright!”.

“What a wonderful day for an exorcism!”

“BLEUAAARGH!”

“Your mother sucks c***s in hell!!”

Beetlejuice (that’s it, we said it 3 times now!), from the classic Tim Burton movie of the same name, does not come with any accessories, has an awkward pose and can’t really do much…but it’s Beetlejuice, so he will just look awesome on a shelf. Sometimes, less is more?

“I’m the ghost with the most!”

“IT’S SHOWTIME!”

Sam, the mascot from the cult classic horror anthology “Trick’r Treat” comes with an extra head, a lollypop and his bag of goodies (which might be human parts). The figure doesn’t need much to look great, and already looked cartoony to begin with, so it’s a win win for that one.

“…” (he doesn’t talk in the movie)

Unmasked head

So cute!

Victor Crowley, from the ‘Hatchet’ movies comes with…a hatchet! (SO META!). A perfect cartoony depiction of the monster from the movies, his head, arms and right hand can move, which is enough. Kane Hodder, who played Jason in 4 of the ‘Friday the 13th’ movies, played Victor Crowley in all 4 ‘Hatchet’ movies.

“When the boogeyman goes to sleep, he checks the closet for Victor Crowley”

“GET OUT OF MY SWAMP!”

That is a wrap for NECA’s Toony Terrors series 4!

Here are the links for the first 3 waves, in case you are interested:

https://www.toyfarce.com/news/review-necas-toony-terrors-series-1

https://www.toyfarce.com/news/review-necas-toony-terrors-series-2

https://www.toyfarce.com/news/review-neca-toony-terrors-series-3-chucky-and-bride

The 5th wave included 2 repaints (Mike Myers from the latest Halloween movies, and a bloody Ash Williams from Evil Dead), along with the Creep from Creepshow and Ghostface from Scream. I might only pick the 2 new figures and skip the repaints, because I don’t have much space left on the shelf, and shelf real estate is a very expensive business these days (See previous post!).

Do you like the Toony Terrors figures? Are you planning to get them? Let us know in the comments!

REVIEW: DC COMICS AMAZING YAMAGUCHI REVOLTECH JOKER

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

DC COMICS AMAZING YAMAGUCHI REVOLTECH JOKER!

It's Wednesday. You know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

This week we’re checking out the latest Amazing Yamaguchi Revoltech DC Comics figure, the Clown Prince of Crime himself, the JOKER! “haHAHAhAhaha”. Here are some packaging shots:

The Amazing Yamaguchi Revoltech Batman is ready for this…

Front

Back

Inside

The figure comes with an alternative head (maniacal laugh), 3 extra sets of hands, a cane, a ‘shattering teeth’ toy (a toy that comes with his own toy…gotta love it!), and surprisingly… Guns! 2 revolvers, 1 prop revolver, and 2 submachine guns (had to google that), with fire effects!

A great feature of that figure (outside of the ridiculous amount of articulations) is that the eyes can be moved on both headsculpts, using a tool that comes with the figure. Cross eyed Joker is now a possibility, folks!

Now, as always with Revoltech, the figure has articulations on top of articulations. If you suck at posing, like I do, this figure will be a pain in the ass to manipulate. I did what I could! Those figures are hyper-articulated, and each part can move pretty easily, and hold great. No QC issues there (*cough* take note, MAFEX *cough*).

“TADAAAAA!”

“Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?”

“What would a villain be without a cane!”

“HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!”

Not sure if this figure was made before Warner/DC decided to remove guns from toys, or if there’s still a misunderstanding with the weapons being added to the figure, but not present on the promo pics, but his weapons are pretty great too. (Although, MAFEX did send an email saying the guns won’t be present with the Armored Batman and HUSH Joker later this year, so who knows…)

The stand allows more fun poses, or you can get your Joker airborne if you want to display him while punched by Batman.

“Tee-hee!”

“I should go and take more pictures of the Comissioner’s daughter…”

“Say cheeeeeese!”

“Remember when I removed my face, and wore it as a mask? Weird times…”

Here’s a display of the articlations when stretched to the max, which looks very painful.

“I should go see my chiropractor again…”

“Well, well, well! Look who’s here…”

“Let your favorite clown give you a kiss… with his fists!”

“I just want to grab you…”

“…and bash your skull in!! Hahaha!”

“Whoops! That’s my cue! Bye, batsy!”

“Hahaha! I got you again with the oldest trick in the books! Seriously, it has to be the 1000th time by now!”

One of the coolest accessory are the “Haha!” bubbles that can be attached to his back (or on the stand), capturing that classing “The Killing Joke” look (which I have tattooed on my leg, humble brag).

The Revoltech figures are not for everyone, but look very nice on a shelf (#DetolfClub). Some don’t like the over-articulations, or the Japanese anime-like design on those, but if you can get past that, they are very cool figures (apart from Batman’s cape, which is shouldn’t have come in puzzle pieces, and still looks awful).

The Amazing Yamaguchi DC Comics figures (minus the ladies, Harley Quinn and Wonder Woman)

A group of Jokers is called “a circus”. You heard it here first!

Will you be picking this one up? Let us know in the comments!

More news at 11:00…and that puts a SMILE on my face!

REVIEW: MATTEL’S WWE ULTIMATE THE FIEND

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

MATTEL’S WWE ULTIMATE THE FIEND!

It's Wednesday. You know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

Yowie wowie! It’s Wrestlemania week so we’re gonna review a WWE figure, with none other than Bray Wyatt’s evil doppelganger, The Fiend!

Since I received this figure, some strange things happened in my house, but we’ll see how this goes…

Here’s the packaging!

The usual white and red packaging for WWE Ultimates figures, with a great design. Those boxes are great.

“BLEP!”

What the…

The figure just… vanished… There’s some strange screeching sound coming from the cupboard… I’m scared.

There he is!

“LET ME IN”

The figure comes with his jacket and extra arms to go with it, a second head with the tongue out, and his Fiend-designed belt from when he was the WWE Champion.

As I was taking pictures of the accessories, the lights turned off and the figure disappeared again. Please send help. I heard some noise coming from a miscellaneous shelf…

Oh, hi Plunderlings and MK Trumpet Spawn!

'“BLEP!”

*Annoying screeching sound and laughs*

“LET. ME. IN.”

I have to make some space on the small WWE shelf for him…

“BLEP!” …or I can let him do that…

OK! FINE, YOU CAN COME IN!

Like all Ultimates before him, the Fiend has some decent articulation. The detail on all the tattoos is really good, it was nice to be able to look at exactly what he has on his arms. The 2 heads are perfectly creepy. I do prefer the look with the jacket, but he also looks great without.

Creepy!

Time for an unsuspecting figure to be the Fiend’s prey…

The Mandible Claw!

Sister Abigail!!

ToyFarce pulled some strings and managed to get an exclusive sneak peek on the new design of the figure, after the Fiend was burned alive by Randy Orton a couple of months ago. He came back with a new design, which looks exactly like that!

*Annoying screeching sounds*

Not the YETAY!

We’re in for some wacky cinematic match this weekend, when the Fiend will face Randy Orton on one of the 2 nights of Wrestlemania. Be sure to check it out!

More news at 11:00… LET HIM IN!

REVIEW: LONE COCONUT’S PLUNDERLINGS!

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

LONE COCONUT'S PLUNDERLINGS!

It's Wednesday. You know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

This week, we’re reviewing the awesome Plunderlings from Lone Coconut. Lone Coconut is a Dominican Republic-based award winning visual effects and animation studio (thank you, Google!) and last year, they launched a Kickstarter for the Plunderlings, their own IP, that took the toy collecting world by storm. “A little bit goblin, a little bit pirate, united with infectious charm. These greedy adorable pirates travel from island to island looking for treasure and mischief”, they’ve been the latest craze in the toy community and are more than worth the hype! There were 14 of them during the Kickstarter campaign + 2 “Fawns” that were released afterward.

First off, the packaging: A beautiful crate-like box, with a window in the front and at the top. The front part looks like their faces, with the window in the mouth. You can see the figure from the front , and the extra heads and accessories on the top. The boxes come with extra ears that you can attach (the ears are inside the box, so they won’t be damaged during transport, you can just add them yourself. Or not, if you don’t like fun!). Footprints are printed at the bottom, and you get a picture of your figure in the back (If i remember correctly, there’s some QR-code animation or something like that in the back too, but I haven’t tried that yet!)

The ingenious thing about them is that they are basically the same figure/mold for all of the 14 figures, but it’s the accessories and colors that give them their own personalities!

First, let’s check Raider Gank!

When I hear “Goblin”, I always see in my mind something green. Since the Plunderlings look like little goblins, I picked Gank, the green one with the accessories making him more “piratey”. And what can I say… This figure is a lot of fun! Gank comes with a bandana (all the head accessories have magnets in them, which is genius. F’ing magnets, how do they work?), a sword and a tiny crossbow/slingshot weapon. All Plunderlings come with 2 extra heads (smiling and mouth open), and extra hands to hold the accessories.

I had decided that I would pick 2, and the second one that caught my eye was Nomad Goyle, a blue/grey-ish Plunderling with a purple hood. There’s always something about characters with hoods, that makes them look cooler. And this one is purple! He comes with 2 daggers, and what looks like a dead-frog. So mischievous!

The articulations on those figures are incredible. I have played with them (a lot) when taking the pictures, and they really can be put in a lot of weird positions, which is amazing.

I will most likely be switching them around and putting them in various places in my displays, annoying other figures from other franchises. It’s great fun!

“GIMME!”

“SHINY!”

“Are they with you? - I thought they were with you…”

“Leave my cape alone.”

“MINE!”

“Hello, little guy! Were you created with mutagen too?”

“I somehow doubt it…”

“What would be a cameo-ridden review without the king of cameos! EXCELSIOR!”

We miss you, Stan Lee…

“Sam, they’re saying there’s some sort of mischievious half-pirate, half-goblin wreaking havoc in town…”

“Great smile!”

“Selfie time!”

“GIVE IT TO ME!”

I have nothing but good things to say about those figures. They’re just awesome. I can’t wait to get a few more (I have a fawn on the way + a couple more coming later this year). Lone Coconut has also teased a few more figures (Plunderlongs, Plunderstrongs,…) which look fantastic. I also hope we’ll get some of the Kickstarter accessory packs and especially the hatchlings body down the line, so that we can display those extra heads too.

Due to the success and popularity of the Plunderlings, Lone Coconut is re-issuing 6 of them, which are available for pre-order RIGHT NOW on BigBadToyStore and EntertainmentEarth, so don’t miss out!
