Review: Outer Space Men Bluestar Metamorpho Action Figure

http://16bit.com/fotd/200723-osm-gitd-2019-blue-metamorpho.shtmlAs shared experiences go, toys are great. Unfortunately The Outer Space Men are one not shared by my peers - they're before my time, but I love the designs as sci-fi space race-era toys go ever since I saw them in Action Figure Digest, which was a real magazine a million years ago. For this reason, Bluestar Metamorpho is a fun, weird figure that stands on his own. [ READ THE FULL REVIEW ]

Healey Made Menu - July 17, 2020

https://healeymade.com/collections/live-shop
While mostly sold out, Healey Made's drop Friday was pretty great!  Venge-74 and Droll-40 were great nods to comic books - perfect for what would've been the lead-up to SDCC - and the vinyl Bellum (Dark/Father) is appealing to another fan group.  Click here to see what sold out.

We live in an era where good news is a scarcity, and just about anything can change your day. Maybe the baby hippo at the zoo had gas and made a face, or perhaps someone famous you don't like stubbed their toe.  Thankfully today's fortune requires no misery or suffering, because Spaced Out Design has new figures Thursday at 9:00 PM Eastern.  The rocky, mossy preview above is all we have so far, but it's something, and I'll take it.  Click here to read more on their blog.

Review: Healey Made Raider (Hunter) Action Figure

http://16bit.com/fotd/200702-healey-hunter-raider.shtml
The Healey Made account announced they were doing a "420" launch and didn't tease what it might be. I figured something green - but they already did a clear green figure. I did not at all expect the Raider (Hunter) Action Figure, which takes design cues from Kenner's original 1979 Boba Fett action figure and does a pretty good job evoking the classic, unusual, off-model colors of the figure. It's not a perfect match, but it's pretty good.
