The Toys That Made Us season 3 Review – More plastic, more wholesome nostalgia

By Darryn Bonthuys
November 18, 2019 - 6 years ago

There’s a story behind every action figure or doll you’ve ever owned, a rise and fall of empires and visionaries that created a secret history behind the scenes of pop culture’s greatest icons. The Toys That Made Us is a celebration of epic collections and the riskiest gambles ever taken, with season 3 of the documentary series dialling up the nostalgia to find the humanity that created massive toy empires. That it can do that with a laser-sharp wit and a burning passion, is a testament to the power of toys.

Transformers Siege: War for Cybertron Red Alert Review

By Darryn Bonthuys
November 12, 2019 - 6 years ago

I don’t think there’s any toy better than Transformers when it comes to pure design. They’re something that I consider to be impossible, a fusion between two styles of play that requires the engineering of a madman to pull off. Or wood blocks, if you caught that episode of The Toys That Made Us but you get what I’m saying. …

Power Rangers Beast Morphers 12-inch action figure review

By Darryn Bonthuys
November 11, 2019 - 6 years ago

Right now, the latest Power Rangers series is something more…beastly. Or Beast Morphers to be exact! It’s the premise you’re used: A team of warriors, fighting back against the forces of darkness and somehow managing to not level an entire city when they step into their massive mechanised Zords. Like any Power Ranger show, there’s naturally a ton of merchandise out there, such as these two figures I recently got my hands on: The Cybervillain Blaze and the Blue Ranger.

I need your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle after buying this Terminator 2 statue

By Darryn Bonthuys
November 7, 2019 - 6 years ago

There’s no shortage of Terminator 2 collectibles (If I had $500 I’d happily spend it on on the Hot Toys sixth-scale collectible), but this latest stab at the franchise might just be the biggest slice of merchandise ever. Behold, an actual 1/4 scale statue of the Terminator on his Harley Davidson!

The best comic book covers of the week – 28 October 2019

By Darryn Bonthuys
October 28, 2019 - 6 years ago

I loved the first issue of Tales from the Dark Multiverse, and with a new one-shot on the way that shines a light on The Death of Superman, I’m hungry for more of what is essentially DC’s Elseworlds meets a twist from the Outer Limits. Which is exactly what I’m getting soon! Here’s the pitch: It’s the saga of Infinite …

The Knightfall saga gets a grim twist in the first tale from the Dark Multiverse

By Darryn Bonthuys

What if Bruce Wayne failed in his battle to reclaim the mantle of the bat from his mad successor, Jean-Paul Valley? That's the question that the first Tales from the Dark Multiverse comics answers in grim fashion.
