  • More Masterpiece Grimlock news and pics (TFormers)
  • G.I. Joe and Cobra 2009 5-pack images (Hisstank)
  • Hot Toys’ “Dutch” Schaefer figure from Predator confirmed (TNI) (Note to self: do NOT start collecting 12″ figures…do NOT start collecting 12″ figures…)
  • Maybe Billy too (Toy Haven)
  • Hellboy II Adventure Combat Galactic Robot Heroes BPRD Buddies (TNI)

    Man Dutch and Billy sure are making me think about buying some 12inch figs..I just know if I did, I'd start making my own clothes for themn.

  2. I'm actually entertained by those BPRD Buddies. I can see myself picking up the set.

  3. L.A. Hey? You know I'm only a short six hour drive away now!! HINT HINT

    Six hours? I could go from Boston to Newark in less than that…not that I would want to.
