1/6 Hot Toys MMS383 + MMS382 Suicide Squad Review

Over last Christmas I got various Suicide Squad figures. Yes I know the film wasn't the best ever and it divided fans like mad but I still maintain that the film has it's merits and I appreciate that they tried something different with the Joker, even though most people seem to hate it.

Lets face it though, it was always going to be a daunting task following up acts by Jack Nicholson, Mark Hamill and Heath Ledger. The quality of the film aside I thought the figures that Hot Toys produced for it where pretty eye catching and I operate on a rule that if the figure catches my eye enough, I don't care what it's based on I'll have it!

So far I've bought four Hot Toys figures based on the film, 2x Jokers, 1x Harley Quinn and Batman. Today I'm showing off the Jokers and Harley.

Enjoy the pictures and quick thoughts on each of the figures.

1/12 Storm Collectibles Ryu Figure Review

Hadouken!

I recently purchased this gem from America, as always cool stuff like this can't simply be bought from a normal shop in the UK. I always see posts on Reddit where Americans casually say they were at Walmart or Toys R Us (RIP) and they picked up one of these figures on sale. I get massively salty about it because we just have toy shops that sell wooden rocking horses and hoola hoops (slight over exaggeration). Any hooo this marks my first Storm Collectibles figure! This is Ryu from the beat-em-up video game Street Fighter 5.

I'm back! Here are some NECA 1/4 Turtle pictures to celebrate.

I'm back after a fairly long hiatus, *cough 6 years! My collecting habit has not slowed down any. Although I'd say due to mental spirally costs of Hot Toys I've probably shifted more towards collecting smaller scale figures like NECA, Figuarts and Figma stuff. The quality for these companies has jumped up massively over the last few years and they are a pleasure to buy and display, plus they take up less room ha.

That being said, over 2017 I bought the fairly big 1/4 TMNT figures that NECA released one by one, thank god they didn't release them all at once as it was a fairly expensive affair. Due to stupid licensing issues they weren't released in the UK for sale so each figure had to be purchased from the US, or risk paying nutty aftermarket prices. I'm chuffed to own all four now. Enjoy the pics and look out for more review's coming soon.

Play Arts Kai Robot Ninja (Grey Fox)

Tis been a while since I posted any pictures/reviews. I've been moving house and getting many things sorted. I've not stopped collecting of course heh, I've just not had the time to take any pictures. I've got lots of new toys and I'll be doing some photoshoots soon. Anyway onward n upward. Heres some pictures of the wonderful play arts robot ninja.

In flames/Headplay Metal Boss photo review

"Metal Boss" or Snake from the Metal Gear Solid video game ha. This figure really rocks, even if it is unlicensed. I'm not a huge fan of the Metal Gear series but I think this figure is based on a character called "Naked Snake" Aka "Big Boss" from Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater which was set in the 60's. I bought the figure simply because I liked the fatigues and the overall look of the figure which is really nice.

Hot Toys Captain Jack Sparrow DX06

Why has the rum gone?!! It's everyones favourite pirate Jack Sparrow. Hot Toys 6th deluxe figure to date. As with all Deluxe (DX) figures he comes with an array of accessories and Hot Toys trademarked PERS (Parallel Eye Rolling System) Which allows you to pose his eyes.
