Can You ID This Toy?

Someone emailed today and stumped me: "I've been trying to find this toy set that I had as a child for years now and can' find it anywhere. All I have from the set is a little dog figurine in a teal dress. She had a family and came with a house. My sisters also had similar sets, one was a pig family that own a bakery and a bear family set. My biggest problem is I don't know what they were called. All I know is that they are from the yearly 90s'. They are not the felt ones they are small and plastic with no movable parts."

So my local Wal-marts have dumped Marvel Legends, Marvel Universe, GI Joe, Star Wars....for

a fully stocked endcap of Pacman Toys? Is the person who got Walmart to stock up on Zambi behind the Pacman Toys? Honestly Walmart and Target are so out of the loop when it comes to boys toys, I am glad my boys are only becoming intereseted in construction toys and video games. My youngest son has just gotten into the New Mega Bloks Call of Duty Sets, where each minifigure is comprised of 20 parts and is more detailed than most Marvel or DC Figures. Good Luck everyone, it's going to be a sad holiday season with only TRU getting in limited cases of new product.

Mattel Batmobile and Batman and Robin Review

Hey kids, I'm finally getting back on track with reviews (although I'm still admittedly behind on my PAK ones, and will most likely have the DC Variants today), so I hope you enjoy my look at the classic Batmobile as well as BatWest and Wardbin.

66 Batmobile and the Dynamic Duo!

Thanks for reading!

Movie-based Comedian figure

Nice Comedian figure review at MWCtoys...

His face sculpt seems to look more...cartoony than the other "Black Freighter" figures so far...at least to me.

Finally some decent accessories, too, although I might have preferred an alternate head featuring his black leather "bondage hood" instead of the flame-thrower.

Looking forward to Ozy's release later this year, and enjoying watching the (lengthy) Ultimate version of the movie. So much good stuff was left off the theatrical release. I was disappointed at the time, but those Black Freighter comic segments would have distracted & confused the average movie-goer, of course...

Anyone want 20-25% off at Toys R Us?

They have a promotion going on now (Sept 19) thru Sat. Sept. 21 whee you can get 20% off just about everything you purchase or 25% off if you pay with a TRU credit card. That should help take the sting out of some of the large ticket exclusives they are rolling out for the holiday season. Unfortunately it resulted in me spending $375 on TMNT merchandise. I guess it is a good thing I didn't also see a Masterpiece Soundwave instock.

If you want to buy online, use "FRIENDS20" as the discount code.

You can also print off a coupon to shop in store: coupons

Masterpiece Soundwave is listed in stock right now

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has been interesting in getting this. So strike now and hope TRU comes through with the orders.

90's Marvel figures, is there a market?

I'm not trying to sell them here, if I were, I would post over in the classifieds. But I have so many of them just taking up space, and I see a lot of customs with them during custom con. Does anyone still collect these? They're not terrible, especially considering the other toys of the time.

Question about figures being sold directly from Amazon.com

Is it normal for Amazon to only offer 1 figure for sale out of a set? Example: They had Flashback HHH for sale from WWE Elite 23 but none of the others. Just wondering if I should be patience for the others or if I missed the boat on them. Any help is appreciated.

Play Arts Dark Knight Trilogy Batman and Joker

Hey kids! Been awhile since I've been on here or posted a review, I have several written but have yet to take photos due to the Great Move of 2013. Hope you enjoy, and content warning for language.

Thanks!
