America's Army Real Heroes

A few years back, a first series of action figures was released based on real military heroes coming from Afghanistan and Iraq. The first set of four was released. A second set was planned but never released. Can't even find these on ebaY.




Revenge of the Jedi

Years after buying a MicroCollection Death Star, I opened it up and took a look. Inside was a nice surprise...an actual flyer for the release of Revenge of the Jedi....prior to it being changed to Return of the Jedi.




Gears of War - Anya Stroud

Was happy to see NECA finally release Anya Stroud as a Gears of War figure. In this diorama, she does her due diligence with a Lancer and increases the body count.




Seriously?

Rick Grimes thought he had it rough with normal people turning into zombies. Now the DC heroes and villains from Blackest Night jump into the fray.



Walking Dead Part 2

Just a few more set ups from the McFarlane Walking Dead collection.










It's only Mr. Smith from the Old Amusement Park

For those of you that grew up watching Scooby Doo cartoons, you know the episode always ended up with the Mystery Gang pulling the mask off the monster/ghost/zombie and revealing the real person behind the "mystery." Unfortunately in this case, as Velma is ready to "peel off" the mask, the Mystery gang is in for a rude surprise.




McFarlane Walking Dead Diorama

I came late to the Walking Dead party. Once I saw the first season on DVD, I bought the hardcover compilations of all comic books. Intense! Awesome! And I've never, ever been a fan of zombie movies at all. McFarlane just launched two series. One features characters from the comic book. The other from the TV show on AMC. Looking forward to more.
