Doc Thomas Probes > Most Wanted, Left 4 Dead 2 Edition
Welcome to Part 2 of my detailed Left 4 Dead-themed Most Wanted article, in which I beg Valve and “some other company” to create toys based on one of my recent favourite games! If you’re wondering why I haven’t specified the company I’d like to make these toys, that’s because there’s so many great companies that it doesn’t matter who makes them as long as the toys are great. Although top contender NECA have absolutely showed their chops at making great video game figures, including the Resident Evil zombies we know and love, Mezco have also done a sensational job with their Attack of the Living Dead line, comprised entirely of army-building fully-articulated awesomely-detailed zombies, some of which already resemble L4D characters. Really, it doesn’t matter – the toys are what matters, so on with the show! (more…)

Doc Thomas Probes > Most Wanted, Left 4 Dead Edition
Since Poe so kindly allowed me to start writing articles for his site as a favor and part of my community service, the very best response I’ve had was to the Most Wanted column, where I talked about the many action figures that I so dearly desired for my collection to sate the addiction, and that’s no surprise: every passionate collector has characters and properties that they’re passionate about seeing in plastic on their shelf. That’s part of the fun of the whole hobby, why everyone gets so excited for SDCC and announcements – the pleasure of having our plastic fantasies realised. (That sounds much worse than I’d intended. My apologies.) (more…)

Dark Arsenal of the Space Pirate Pics
I don’t have my own Dark Arsenal of the Space Pirate set yet–mine is complementary, so Spy Monkey Creations is rightly focused on getting you folks’ orders out before mine–but some of the first pics have shown up on the Web, and they’re so damned awesome I can’t resist posting some of them.
Click each pic for a larger version. To order your own set, check out Spy Monkey’s store.
Of course, I’m also obliged to point out that there are a good dozen or so Dread Axes of the Horde Darkness left. Grizzlor comes out in just a few months, folks, and it seems to me that axe might be a perfect fit…
