Octobersbest: Let's Look at Them Ghost Toys


Turns out I have a lot of ghost toys (more or less; we'll accept a few oddballs). Probably because ghost toys are often translucent or glow-in-the-dark, and I'm all about that biz.

Masters of the Universe Classics: Year by Year - 2017 Super 7 Takes Over


Masters of the Universe Classics was over...but was the demand? It was no secret that Mattel was done with it - Classics was a hassle, and the people with the ability to juggle quality, fan requests, complaints, and the website to sell it - were gone or done as well. Was anyone willing to shoulder the burden?

Masters of the Universe Classics: Year by Year - 2013


Hey, you're back! Not tired of this yet, I see. Well, 2012 made some folks a little tired, and while Masters of the Universe Classics didn't slow down, it did start to show some skid marks while it careened a bit on a few twists and turns. Why don't we look back on 2013 and see what they did to spice things up?

Masters of the Universe Classics: Year by Year - 2008 to 2009


This may seem redundant, seeing as how I started this blog to showcase all my Masters of the Universe Classics pictures, but I seem to find myself slowing down in terms of full-on reviews. That's not to say that'll I'll stop, but I felt like Instagram gave me a reason to run down each figure in a few shots (or less). Since I photographed ALL of them, why don't we do some year by year short reviews for each figure?

If you're into toy photography, you may have seen this fellow walking around the uncanny valley. It started out as an excellent twelve inch figure, and then 1000Toys (the company that made it) shrunk it down to six inches. This is that glorious six inch figure.
