    The 6 inch GI Joe figures revealed today are pretty cool!

    I'm still hopeful we get a true recreation of the vintage 80s non 6 inch line that isn't re-imagined

    @Headhunter - I would have flipped my lid for a Snake Eyes like that back in the day.

    He still would have been almost impossible to buy though considering how popular Snake Eyes was even back than. You can preorder it on Hasbropulse atm! :)

    I'm just hoping The Real Ghostbusters vintage figure's don't cost an arm and a leg since Hasbro is making them.

    Faker John Cena!!

    From the new Masters Of The Universe WWE crossover figure set from Mattel only currently found at Wal-Mart! Comes with mace, two brass knuckles, arm band and silver neck chain. The chest armor even comes off allowing you to see the Faker robotic chest. Fully articulated buck based off of the upcoming Masters Of The Universe line this Fall.

    I'll take a picture of the exposed chest later on. The translucent blue body is really cool but it's hard to take a decent picture of it. :)

    And there is the exposed robot chest like what the He-Man Faker has. Pretty cool to cause it's a painted piece rather than a sticker that might wear off.

    I am glad you like it, and it is certainly meant for a particular collector, but this just seems like such an odd mixup for me. If anything was going to mashed with MOTU, I cannot understand why they went with modern WWE. Well, other than the fact it sells toys; which, I guess, is exactly in the spirit of Masters of the Universe. Well played Mattel, well played.

    They have a Macho Man Randy Savage and an Ultimate Warrior in this line to. So it's kind of a mix of old and new.

    I guess what excites me the most about these is the poseability of the figures in general without falling over like some of the Hasbro stuff tends to do. Which gets me even more excited for the MOTU figures coming this fall!

    I'll take a pic of some of the other ones I managed to pick up once I get the chance.

    Not Kaiju racers by a long shot (probably will never have any of those), but Peppa Pig has a wonderful line of toys, and these "racers" are my favorite. They're my kid's, but I did buy them because I love them :) They're beautifully painted, and super tough. He beats them up all the time and they still look great.

    Those are so great, Rei!! Thanks for sharing these here. I am immediately going to look into if I can get this set for my niece. She is waaayyy into all dinosaurs, and also (as least used to) enjoy Peppa Pig as well.

    Love that one, Rei. Fire or ambulance I am guessing? One of my regrets is not buying a Unimog over Christmas when I saw one for sale (they had done a series of Star Wars themes, and this was one of them). I don't really pick up dinkies as such, but now I am sorry. As a massive fan of both, I don't know what I was thinking.

    Thanks, it's an emergency service/response vehicle! A Star Wars Unimog sounds cool :thumbsup:
