I’ll preface this review by saying that I’m more excited about the new Iron Man movie than I have been about any Marvel film in a while. I was a big fan of the character back when I was a comic book obsessed kid, and though this May seems like a million years from back when I was buying Iron Man or Avengers books in the ‘70s, I can’t imagine how they’d have pulled the idea off before this.
Something that I’ve also been pretty excited about, was seeing how well Hasbro pulled off the toys for this film. I’ve a 10 year old that’s just as obsessed with Tony Stark today, as I was when I was his age, so the first Iron Man toy that we saw hanging on the pegs, was immediately torn open, and run through the ringer by him.
First up, the packaging is great I think. I love the shapes and colors, and think that Hasbro’s graphics people have done a brilliant job of capturing the aesthetic of the film. The figure is well presented in the bubble, and better yet -- for a parent like myself -- it’s easy for the kid to tear the thing open, and remove the toy without damaging it.
This figure is the “Mark 03” suit version, which is apparently the final version of the suit. This particular toy is very simple in design, with no obnoxious gimmick, and even though it includes a kind of silly missile launcher thing, it’s easily removed from the figure. I’ll give credit to Hasbro for being very conservative with their design approach when it comes to gimmicks for this line. From all the figures that I’ve seen, none of them are spoiled or overwhelmed by any of the added features.
What does spoil this particular toy for me, are some fairly avoidable design flaws and production problems. Seeing as how this toy is without a doubt geared toward the “ages 4 and up” crowd, just as much (if not more) than it’s aimed at “collectors,” I’m a little shocked by how weak the wrist joints are constructed. I can easily see how many Iron Man figures will end up with missing hands, and can also predict quite a few disappointed children. As was pointed out to me by my own “toy tester,” the armor plate on the back of the hand really limits what you can do with those hands, and how far back they’ll bend. It’s disappointing for a kid seeing Iron Man using those repulsors, and then finding that the toy can’t bend or imitate that pose. A big thumbs down for the limited play value there.
My other complaint is with the paint. There’s not much about it that I like, aside perhaps from the nice Candy Apple Red color that Hasbro’s decided to use. In general, it’s sloppily applied with rub spots and blemishes all over. The joints were all painted stuck on our figure, which has caused many a broken limb for us in the past, so I was forced to give the toy an experienced limbering before I handed it over to the kid. The funny thing is, though I’ve seen other (most) Mark 03 figures that were painted just as poorly, that’s not entirely the case with other Iron Man figures from his line. I’m kind of wondering if we’re merely seeing the results of a rushed production process... or maybe cutting corners on quality control, as a result of the high licensing costs that Hasbro has paid to make these Marvel inspired toys.
All in all, I’m giving this figure a relatively low rating, because I know that Hasbro is capable of doing a much, much better job with something like this. Given the fact that this film promises to be a hit, and seeing as how their handling of the various Marvel brands is very important to Hasbro’s success, I’d imagine that they might benefit from paying more attention to detail. Trying to turn a quick buck (and in this case ten, which seems pretty high really) may be the way to go in the short term, but a reputation for building products with only limited value are the last thing Hasbro needs. And I suppose it’s the last thing any company needs these days.

Mezco Toyz have put out a few things in the past that I really love. The Hellboy film figures were great, and I've been a fan of their Attack of the Living Dead line, so when they introduced the idea for their own horror movie line, it seemed like a winner.
Out now, the first "Cinema of Fear" series includes the ever standard Freddy and Jason figures, as well as a good reliable Leatherface figure. Now... I'm a big fan of the first two Texas Chainsaw movies, and though I love seeing someone take another whack (pun intended) at making a Leatherface figure, it's not like we haven't seen it done before. (Remember back when there wasn't a such thing as a Leatherface toy? Now it seems as though they're all over the place.)
What we haven't seen before, and what I've been most excited about, is the idea of finally getting a figure of "Chop Top" from Chainsaw 2. The first Texas Chainsaw movie is brilliant for many reasons, but I've also been a fan of the second film for ages. A big part of what I like about it is the way it shifts back and forth neurotically between being very scary and often times hilariously funny.
Chop Top is such a great character for just that reason. In the beginning of the film, he's a mix of silly and crazy, but by the end he's become a complete nightmare. How does something like that translate into the world of plastic? Pretty well, especially the way Mezco has decided to handle it.
They've done a reasonably decent job of capturing some of the expression and weirdness of the character. The overall sculpt is good, and so is the paint, though maybe not as great as what we'd been shown with earlier prototypes. I'd love to say that the quality was as good as past Mezco lines that I've collected, but it's not quite what I'd got from Hellboy. The build quality is solid though, and that's something that really impressed me about this figure. He comes with multiple hands and two heads, and they all snap on and off very easily. The figure's got decent articulation for what it is, which is something I didn't expect.
The accessories make the piece though, and with two heads, four hands, a razor, a hanger, a tape deck, and "Nubbins" included, I'm really pleased with Mezco's approach to making a good looking, well built and (in a creepy sort of way) fun horror figure.

A quick one for my pointy RE4 friend...
The Resident Evil games have always been full of both jump-out-at-you scares, and eerie atmosphere. Resident Evil 4 took the franchise in a somewhat new direction (no zombies), but still managed to keep the scares and great looks. One of the best things about playing the game, or any RE game, is developing a love/hate relationship with the various villains. "Oh god, I hate those...", is what you'll find yourself saying, followed by, "They totally give me the creeps!"
The Regenerator is easily one of those characters, and as such, deserves a very cool figure. NECA's version of this shuddering, spiky, wheezing terror is in fact very nice, but best of all, you won't need to kill it with a shotgun.
The sculpt and paint are good on the whole. NECA doesn't often disappoint when it comes to detail, and this one is no acceptation. A good pose, great modeling, and some cool texture make it fun. The Regenerator is a monochromatic character, so NECA had to really work the skin texture and subtle coloring to sell this one. I love the fact that they made the effort to both sculpt and then glue in additional spikes to make this figure as hazardous as possible.
The figure is built very well, with nice solid parts, but I wish that they'd worked in more articulation. It's tough to decide where you'd want to sacrifice great sculpting detail for more functional joints, but I think it could have been done in a few places. Perhaps joints at the waist, hips, knees and elbows would have been nice. Still though, if you're just looking to pose this guy on a shelf with Leon's rifle pointing at him, you'll be more than happy.
All in all I like this figure. I gave it a 7 out of 10, but my rating is really more of a 7.5, as it's very good, but not the most amazing thing that I've seen from the folks at NECA.
Oh... and one last thing. I'm very annoyed that the chase figure was as hard to find as it was. The "infrared" version is super cool -- probably one of the best chase figure ideas that I've seen, but I never came anywhere near to finding one.

I love most things to do with zombies, and I've been a big fan of the Resident Evil franchise from the start. I've had fun collecting RE toys from back when ToyBiz was putting them out, and was excited to hear that NECA, who did a great job with RE4 figures, would go back and do the "classics" also.
The first 10th Anniversary figure that I picked up had to be the good old classic Zombie, and I'm really happy with it. It's a figure with limited articulation, but that's pretty typical of most zombies and seems more than appropriate here. Just the same, NECA mixed in some cool features to make him interesting. The zombie's arms are removable and break apart, which is fun considering that he comes with an angry zombie dog as well. It's more than amusing to stuff the zombie hand in the dog's mouth. Lots of gruesome fun.
Picking this toy apart a little (pun intended), I'd say that the sculpt is generally very good, perhaps a little simplistic in its overall design, but very true to the spirit of the game. The detail and texture of the sculpt is great -- sores, veins, wrinkly pruney skin, torn and burned fabric. Again, very much in keeping with the textures from the early RE games. The paint is good. I'm always impressed with what NECA does with paint detail, as they always seem to be very smart about how they design their figures, knowing just what will and can't work. It's one thing being ambitious, but if the factory in China wont deliver on your design, then it's all pointless. NECA has again managed to work what they can do to it's highest potential. The paint is clean where it needs to be clean, but it's messy where it can and should be messy. (Obviously with a zombie you can fudge a little.)
The zombie dog is a nice bonus. No serious articulation either -- neck and jaw -- but he's just as true to the spirit of the game as his rotting friend, and the two look nice posed together. I'd maybe have been happier if the dog didn't tend to tip over so easily (that single front leg needs to be centered up a bit), but it's a minor issue with me.
I can't wait to pick up and play with the other figures from this first wave of 10th Anniversary RE figures, and I'm very excited to see what comes next. The best thing about this line is that NECA has really done a super job of "getting it." They really understand the texture, color and design of the game. These Resident Evil figures will display happily alongside the others that I've collected over the years, but it's also nice that they're as fun to play with as the game itself.

I keep writing that I don't read comic books as much as I once did (like 25 years ago), and that I only have a basic clue about what goes on (blah, blah, blah), but there really is a point to repeating myself, especially when it comes to reviewing something like this Lex Luthor figure. What I'm getting at, is that when I see a fun figure of a character that I recognize, but maybe I don't know the story behind a costume variation, or the fancy "battlesuit" that he's wearing, well... I'm likely to dig around a little and maybe pick up a comic book.
Sometimes I look at a something like this Lex Luthor figure by Mattel, and I wonder, do the kids seeing this on the pegs at big retail spots like Target or Wal*Mart have any idea who he is? Is something like this wasted on the average kid that may or may not even read comic books, or is that beside the point? Is it more important that the cool looking toy simply catch their eye, and maybe spark an interest? It works for me, so I assume it must work for others, especially the kids because they tend to be a bit more clever than me. Speaking of clever, here's the review...
How's the packaging? Same old same old. Nice and colorful, but the included book doesn't match the figure at all.
So, how does the figure look? With bright greens and metallic purples, Lex Luthor makes for a a really catchy looking figure. After checkng him out, you'll realize that this toy borrows heavily from the series three Mr. Freeze... which isn't necessarily bad. What matters is how well they've used those parts, and if the whole thing turns out to be character appropriate. In this case the cannibalized elements work very well, and new parts have been added -- the "skirt," different gloves -- to change the look.
The Four Horsemen's spin on the "War Suit" is more bulky and mechanical than what we know from the comics. I like the design, but if the figure fails anywhere, it's with the paint. I looked over 5 or 6 different figures before I found one with a really solid paint job, and even the one that I decided on has it's weak points. Overall there could be more detail, or perhaps some simple weathering. The skirt (or whatever you call it) has green paint that doesn't match the upper body's green color. This doesn't exactly ruin the toy, but it would be nice if things matched.
A few last points -- the head sculpt is very nice, and the included kryptonite gun is a fun touch.
How does the toy feel? I ended up returning the first one of these that I'd bought, because the left foot was broken off inside the package. It was a weird fluke, because if I can say anything about Mattel, it's that their stuff is general pretty well built. In so many years I think I've only had two figures break right out of the package, and this was one of them. Other than that, Lex Luthor is a sturdy, well designed toy made of good solid materials.
How about play value? This figure reminds me, for obvious reasons, of one of the recent Mattel He-Man figures. One of the things about the Four Horsemen that has always impressed me is that they seem to intuitively understand just what makes a toy fun to handle. This big chunky suit design lends itself to fiddling and posing in all sorts of silly dramatic poses. It's a good solid "fighting" toy, and I wouldn't hesitate to let a kid put him through the paces. While I'm writing this, even I'm having a hard time keeping my hands off the figure, which is impressive, because Lex Luthor isn't really the most exciting character in the DC universe... but this version is about a thousand times more fun than the Luthor from the (Superman Returns) movie toy line.
Would I recommend that you buy it? It's not exactly perfect, and it's cobbled together from a mix of new and old parts, but it's still a very good figure. (Better than "other" versions of this same character design.) I'd recommend grabbing it, but be picky about the paint job, and hold out for a really clean version if you can.

I admit, I'm more familiar with the Green skinned classic Brainiac than I am with this '80s version that's obviously inspired by the Terminator... not that that's a bad thing. In fact, what we get is cool looking, silver skinned android, with a very classic sort of sci-fi comic book feel. Okay, here's what I think...
How's the packaging? Mattel has put together a nice bright package here, and Brainiac is well displayed in the bubble. I makes little sense that the book behind him depicts Bizarro (and not Brainiac), but I didn't buy him to keep carded. Just the same though, if the idea of including the book is to turn kids on to buying, reading and collecting comics, then it would seem prudent that Mattel and DC work the idea a bit more, and use different books for each character.
So, how does the figure look? Brainiac plays much better out of the package. Once freed from the bubble and posed a few different ways, it shows itself to be a very nice looking toy. The Four Horsemen's interpretation of this version of Brainiac is great. They seem to have a very good understanding of what makes this incarnation fun, and at the same time have worked in even more nice detailing -- the mix of angles and curves, silver skin, wires, clear brain dome. They didn't exactly invent this idea, but I love the skill with which they've put it all together. Yeah, this is corny stuff, and done wrong it could look like crap, but they really managed to pull it all off here.
Another quick thumbs up to the paint job also. Though I'd perhaps like to see a little more aging and texture, it's cool to see that some of it is there. He's not just silver. Brainiac has a mix of shiny and flat paints on top of a blue body. I works well.
How does the toy feel? By nature, this is a figure that could potentially have some weak spots. The arms are thin in places, and being kind of a metallic skeleton, you'd guess that he'd be a bit fragile in general. The truth is, that though the arms have one spot right below the shoulders that could maybe break, Brainiac is really very sturdy. In fact, I'm impressed by how tight the joints are and by how well he can hold a pose.
How about play value? The articulation is what surprise me the most about this figure. I mean, I bought it because of the clear plastic skull (seriously, I'm a sucker for stuff like that), and didn't expect neck, two waist points, three hip/thigh points, knees, calves, two ankle points, shoulders, upper arm, elbow, and wrist articulation. Each point is also smartly engineered to where they actually do something -- bend and flex in a smart way -- making this a very fun toy to play with.
Would I recommend that you buy it? Yes! Like I said, this isn't the version of the Brainiac character that I like best, but Mattel managed to really win me over here on play value alone.

The long and the short of it is this... Jack Kirby was the king, I love the guys art, and any chance to own an action figure of a Jack Kirby character is a treat. This particular Mattel toy turns out to be somewhat difficult to find at this point, but it's early yet, so who knows what'll happen. Here's a quick review...
How's the packaging? The DC Super Heroes line has nice bright and colorful packaging. Darkseid is a big figure, so it gets a little lost in the top of the bubble, but you'll probably want to tear this one open, so no big deal.
I'd like to see (assuming that this line continues much longer) Mattel ditch the paper that blocks the figure, and I'd also like to see a different comic book for each figure. I didn't need a copy of this book with Bizarro again. (Frankly, I didn't really like it when I got it the first time with Bizarro.)
So, how does the figure look? Design wise, Darkseid is a pretty simple character. There's no fancy cape, utility belt or robot parts, but he has a particular look that needs to be captured, and I think The Four Horsemen did a great job here. He's bulky, he's posed perfectly, he's sculpted and textured with just the right amount of detail. Darkseid looks as much like the god Kirby created, as I could want from a 7-inch plastic toy.
How does the toy feel? This is a well built toy. The plastic is solid, and the joints are reasonably snug, though he could perhaps use sturdier ankles, becuase he tends to pitch over if not balanced properly. Not a big a surprise given his size.
How about play value? Darkseid has a surprisingly decent amount of articulation -- shoulders, elbows, wrists, neck, waist, hips, knees and ankles. The weak ankle thing does sort of hurt the play value, but Darkseid is still capable of going toe-to-toe with Superman. He comes with a small handheld device, which is also covered in Kirby-esque mechanical detail. He looks cool holding it... frankly he just looks cool, and in this case, that counts for a lot.
Would I recommend that you buy it? If you can find him, yes, buy him. If you can't find him, then don't panic, and don't pay the scalpers, I'd imagine that Mattel will find a way to release him again as part of a set or something.

Confession time.
Before I heard about the Hellboy movie back in 2003, I had no idea what Hellboy was even about.
Yes, I am a complete comic book geek, but Hellboy was just never one of those books that really stuck out in my mind.
But then it was announced that one of my favorite director's was attached to the project, in Guillermo Del Toro. One of my favorite actor's was attached to the project, in Ron Perlman. And that one of my favorite companies would be making the toys, in Mezco.
So I picked up a trade paperback,"Wake the Devil" and from there on, I was hooked. Mike Mignola has created himself a wonderful little masterpiece full of mythology, story-telling and flat-out kooky fun!
The movie came out, and I loved it.
The movie toys came out, and I loved them.
I then made it my life's work to pester Mez, himself into making comic book toys based on this property. Persistance pays off for once! 
Series 1 of the comic Hellboy line came out last September. And Series 2 just came out a few weeks ago. My personal preference would be to have at least two lines of this a year, but when you see the detail involved, you quickly learn to forgive.
Series 2's lineup include's Hellboy (w/ rocket pack), Roger, Johann, and Alien.
Let's review these bad boys, shall we?
Sculpt: Amazing. Stepped right off the page of Mike Mignola's artwork. The amount of minut detail is astonishingly beautiful. From the hatch of Roger's chest, to the wire's on the alien's back, to the switch for Hellboy's rocket......all perfect.
Paint:I scoured my figures over for ANY sort of imperfection, and the best I could come up with is maybe a slight color difference on Hellboy's head the rest of his body. But I had to stare at the figure for 5 minutes just to determine that.
Packaging: I love that Mezco has gotten Mike Mignola to design the packaging. Each card has individual character artwork.
Accessories: All very character spcific, and perfect for the figure.
Hellboy: Just his gun and the rocket, which, might I add is sculpted on, as is the switch to his rocket. It's sculpted into his left hand. Not that this becomes a problem unless you planned on removing it. Otherwise...go by yourself a Hellboy. Not rocket Hellboy.
Roger: BPRD vest, and book.
Johann: Spares hands, one set with the spirit creatures he creates coming out of his fingertips, and one set without.
Alien: Three alien devices of some sort.
All in all, there isn't a single complaint I can come up with on these figures other than the one line of figures a year deal. Great paint jobs, great sculpts, great accessories. This is one line that I can't wait to see continue.
Speaking of which, I do have to step back here at the end and make a plea to all you Hellboy fans out there. Rumors over at Mezco's message board have circulated over the folling: Mezco has apparently stated that the fate of the line depends on sales of this series.
So, while I don't have exact word at this time whether or not this is the case, why risk it?
If you are truly a fan of Hellboy, don't waste anytime picking this line up. Don't wait for any clearance. Support this line. It is definately one of the better lines to come down the pike in recent years, and it would be a shame to see it end too soon.

So, when I first saw designs for just the "The Batman" character. I was intrigued. I thought, "Cool. I'd like a year one take on Batman". I'm typically not a huge Jeff Matsuda fan, but I enjoyed his take on Batman. It was something new, without being too unfamiliar.
Then the designs for the Joker came out. Then the Penguin. Then Clayface. Then Mr. Freeze. Then the Riddler. Then Bane, and I thought: "Oh boy, what're are they doing to my Batman?"
And while it ended up being better than I thought it would be, I was never really sold on it. Especially when it came to the toys. I mean, I have the DC Direct and DC Superheroes line. Why would I need THIS version of Batman?
However, I quickly dropped that opinion when they came to stores. I started collecting this line like a madman. I even have all the variants. These things were just to cool to pass up!
Tonight's review is no exception.
I found this figure at Toys R Us for 39.99 USD. And while a bit pricey, it actually is a cool variant to own. Plus, that's where I bought it, so I'm not aware of what the prices may be at Wal-Mart, K-Mart, or other outlets.
The first thing you'll notice is that it's not simply rotocast. It's a heavy figure. At least, that's what I went in expecting when I picked it up. So that weighs in a lot on the price.
Sculpting: Well, not much to say here. If you're a fan of The Batman's line, and you're a fan of the 5 inch figure's sculpt, you'll be a fan of this sculpt. It's essentially the Batman, with added armor. That armor does in fact look good. It's well done, for what it is.
Paint: Mattel has really stepped up it's game as far as this goes. I haven't really had a problem in a while with Mattel's items, as far as slops, or bleeds go. The only real problem I had was that the Bat insignia on the belt was slightly rubbed off. The armor is done pretty much in the regular matte finish, with the exception being the chrome colored shoulder pads.
Articulation: Again, if you're familiar with The Batman line, you'll know how much articulation this guy has. Neck, shoulders, elbows, t-crotch, and knees.
Packaging: Open faced (ala Lord of the Rings tolls, and the other "The Batman" rotocast figures. Bright, and indeed catches the eye. On the back there's a little bullseye set up with different Batman villians, which leads us to...
Acessories: You didn't think he'd be called "Ultra Blast Batman", and not have anything to blast WITH, would you? He comes with a massive cannon that fires soft, foam missiles. At a pretty good distance, too. It's fun to torment the wife with, as well. As she does her paperwork, tiny foam missiles bombard her every thirty seconds. Ahhhh, I need a life. Batman also comes with a key familiar to those with the EXP vehicles, to operate said cannon, and three extra missiles.
Overall worth: 7 out of 10.
It's a fun figure to own. Something cool to torment the wife, or pets with (no cruelty was performed on any of the animals in this review), and a great little addition, and variant, to my ever growing "The Batman" universe.

How's the packaging? Mezco's clamshell packaging is pretty much a standard. In this case, there's nothing special going on, though I'd say that the card art and graphics are very nice. More often than not, I never want to keep their products carded (partly because it's too tempting to open them, and partly because the packaging is so generic), but for this line I'm really thinking about having an extra to keep packaged. So yeah... I suppose I do like the packaging, though it would be nice if our friends at Mezco broke from the mold every now and then.
So, how does the figure look? This is a great example of a line that looks better in person than it does in all of the photos that you're likely to see. Mezco rarely disappoints me when it comes to sculpt and paint, and the figures from this line are no different. I picked "Jake" for my first AOTLD (Attack of the Living Dead) figure, because he's sort of a "classic" zombie -- bony limbs, twisted frame, shriveled skin and that maggot infested eye. Good stuff!
The sculpt and pose are perfect. The detail, things like veins on legs or the bony spine, is brilliant. They've managed to do a good old fashioned comic book zombie with this one, and I couldn't be happier. There's also supposed to be a second head variant available for each character, with Jake's being a "no maggot eye" version (I think.)
The paint is great. There are three paint options for each character, (so that means twelve possible figures in all for this line), and I picked the "color" version of Jake instead of the "pale" version. (There's also going to be a really cool "black and white" version that we'll be able to get online at the Mezco site.) The color paint version gives us a nice mix of rotten green and blood red to accent all of the wrinkled zombie flesh. The paint is handled well, with a decent amount of detail throughout, as well as some really good tonal variations to the skin. Basically, the paint's tight, and it's all where it should be with next to no slop or mess.
How does the toy feel? Here's another solidly well built figure from Mezco. I have nothing to complain about. The parts fit together well, the plastic is solid and this figure is built with the same attention to quality that I've come to expect from this company.
How about play value? This figure is very fun to handle and equally fun to actually play with. I'd hesitate before handing him over to my 8 year old, but I wouldn't doubt that the toy could hold up to some genuine kid play. The figure has surprisingly good articulation for a zombie, with (by my count) fourteen points, including a nice ball jointed neck and shoulders. You'll have no problem putting this one into a variety of tradition zombie poses -- like, "arms reaching out for brains," and "arms reaching out for brains."
Would I recommend that you buy it? My only complaint about this figure and this line, is the price. An issue that more than likely has less to do with Mezco, and more to do with Spencers -- which seems to be the only place carrying these figures (near me anyway.) I really hate Spencers. Whoever decided to open a store with all of that "great" headshop atmosphere, but without the bongs, was a complete moron.
Just the same, though I'm less likely to rush out and buy all twelve variants and versions from this line, because of the price, I'm not disappointed with having spent the money on this figure at all. We're talkin' good stuff here!
