No Hold Barred SDCC 22 999

Quick gallery this weekend for the recently revealed Mattel SDCC 2022 WWE exclusive set – No Hold Barred Rip and Zeus! Mattel was kind enough to send an early copy through and we were able to run it for some in-hand shots. Mattel’s promotional images and video were pretty kick ass, so we didn’t go bonkers with it but you should still be able to see some new views of the figures. If you remember this movie and got a little hit of nostalgia dopamine when you saw it, then you will be happy with it if you sang one. Standard fare WWE Elite construction, great accessories, top notch non-destructive packaging, and fantastic face sculpts.

This set will be available at the show starting on 7/20, with additional copies going up on MattelCreations.com starting 7/22. Read on to check out 55+ pics!

Nosferatu Spinature 023

The newest addition to the Spinature line up is now available to pre-order from Waxwork Records. You can now order the Nosferatu “Count Orlok” Spinature. If you’re not familiar with the Spinature line, they are a series of mini busts that can also act as record player spinners. Each one stands about 4″ tall. We’ve previously shared photo galleries for Frankenstein’s Monster, The Bride of Frankenstein, The Live, Michael Myers, H3 Skeleton Masked Child, Creature from the Black Lagoon, and two more from Halloween 3.

The new bust is based on one of the original horror icons, Count Orlok from Nosferatu. The film was an unofficial Dracula adaptation by F.W Murnau, which was released in 1922. The release resulted in a massive copyright infringement case back in the 1920’s. Since adaptation rights were never granted, Bram Stoker’s widow sued the producers of the film. With the court siding with the Stoker estate, all copies of the film were to be destroyed, and the film was nearly deleted from cinema history. A single copy of the movie surfaced in the US in 1929, which had already deemed the Dracula novel as public domain. Nosferatu found new life when Bram Stoker’s Dracula became fully public domain in the 1960’s. The movie is available on about 20 streaming services (many completely free), so it’s easy enough to watch if you’ve never seen it.

The Nosferatu Spinature is priced at $30. Please note that due to licensing restrictions, this is only available to ship in the US. You can order it now directly from waxworkrecords.com. Read on for photo, details, and my thoughts on the new collectible.

Star Wars May 4 Kenobi 999

Lots of Star Wars today, weird.  Earlier in the month we celebrated May The 4th, the unofficial official Star Wars Day.  Hasbro was kind enough to send along a promo box with a sample of items on or hitting the market.  I was unable to take some shots and share it out then, so let’s take a look today to celebrate two big things happening in the galaxy – Star Wars Celebration and the launch of Obi-Wan Kenobi on Disney+!  This is not a detailed review at all, just some quick shots as an excuse to play around with my toys and some overview pics.  All of these are available now at retail, so hit our sponsors below or Hasbro Pulse to grab your copies.  We’d like to thank Hasbro for sending these through to take a look at!

x Spawn Wave 2 Splash

Todd McFarlane has brought back Spawn in a big way over the last couple years.  The road to 300 expanded the mythos as he broke the independent creator record for longest running book. The year of Spawn took that and expanded it into several new books.  There was a Kickstarter which broke records and brought Spawn into the modern age of toys.  And now we are on wave 2 of a running Spawn action figure line, with Wave 3 already in the works.  Today we are taking a look at some of wave 2 – She-Spawn, Soul Crusher, and Cy-Gor further expand the Spawn Universe line up with solid entries.  A variant of Wave 1’s Violator Megafig with a bit of blood is also inside.  Wave 2 also featured a repaint of Redeemer as Dark Redeemer, and a mass-release of Gunslinger Spawn with new accessories.  Those are not featured here.

Read on to check out 100 pics and some quick thoughts on each after the break.  Some come courtesy of McFarlane Toys (thanks!) and some I grabbed at retail.
