Manglors Return on Sunday at 9:30 PM Eastern

From John Kent of ToyFinity on Twitter: 

This Sunday, January 29th at 9:30 pm EST http://toyfinity.blogspot.com #manglors #glyos #mordles #toys

 

That pretty much says it all!  Except what it is, and what it costs.  But that should be fun to see.  The Manglors eggs from ToyFinity - made from the original Ideal tooling - came out about 10 years ago.  Exciting!

Review: The Outer Space Men, LLC Outer Space Men Galactic Holiday Voidrillion Command Orbitron Action Figure

I feel kind of silly that I still get really excited for new The Outer Space Men figures. If I'm getting a new head or an all-new paint job, it's difficult for me to be cynical. When the quartet that includes Galactic Holiday Voidrillion Command Orbitron dropped in December I went from "Well I skipped wave 2 and beyond for Bluestar" to "Get my wallet" in about 4 seconds. They're weird magical beings. I shouldn't spend too much time being concerned about this, I'm just going to throw on a Les Baxter record and write about the silly space man.

Review: Healey Made Trooper (Bulloch) Action Figure

 

Like a fresh page out of hte early 1980s! It can be hard to figure out all the inspirations for a figure design. The Trooper (Bulloch) has elements that look like a Stormtrooper's thigh armor, the swappable hands remind me of a Cobra B.A.T. and numerous other figures, including Mr. Healey's own kitbashed resin customs. I hate saying I can't grasp all the detail he pt in the figures, but so many 1980s figures share DNA and inspirations that it can be tough to identify the precise inspiration for every element of this figure. It just seems plain to me that a black and white Stormtrooper figure repaint is probably inevitable.

Healey Made Fans: Trooper's "Hose" Head Connects to Raider's Rocketpack

Well that's a surprise!  If you've been enjoying the 3 3/4-inch Healey Made figures, you might like to know that the newest figure - Trooper - has a head that connects to his backpack. 

But did you know it also connects to the first figure, the Raider? If you remove the rockets, the backpack perfectly aligns with the twin canisters on the figure's back. How cool is that?

A full review of Trooper (Bulloch) is coming Thursday.
