REVIEW: Omega Red

        Finally! Another figure review after being gone for quite a long time! And what better way to break the ice than to do a review on Marvel Universe last hurrah's chase figure, Omega Red! Yep, you heard that right, it's announced to be the last wave for the line before it rebrands itself for the coming year. Let's do hope that the change in brand doesn't affect the 3 3/4's improvement specially in terms of articulation. So without further ado let's get on with the review.

TOY HAUL: Bonka Zonks

        I've been seeing these tiny, bullet-like, stunt toys from Marvel for quite a long time now. Since its release, neither kids nor collectors seemed to give attention to it thus making it an instant peg warmer. At first it didn't really appeal to me since, nothing seems so special about it and looks like it was really aimed for kids. With a retail price of P399.75 it didn't helped its case either. And the name!!! Gawd! It does remind me of slang word from Missy Elliott's Work It. Wondering what's the word? Try googling badonkadonk. For a toy that's aimed at kids, how appropriate.

TOY HAUL: The Dark World Loki

        It has been about 3 weeks since the 2nd installment of the Thor movie franchise premiered here locally in the Philippines and I must say I definitely enjoyed the film's Lord of the Rings-ish approach. But it wasn't Thor who made the film memorable. Tom Hiddleston's performance as Loki was hands down priceless! He seems to be destined to play Loki just like RDJ is to Tony Stark. Since playing the part of Loki, he's now been the eye-candy of most ladies despite being the villain to Thor. 

TOY HAUL: Ultimate Haul Update & Stuffs 2

       Just when I promised to end my hiatus, I did it again. This time it's even longer. I can't believe it has almost been a year and 2 months since my last post, and boy did things happened. As usual, I've been busy with my work, which kept me from finding time to update my blog. But then again, nothing can stop me from hunting! It's what we alpha males do! uhhmm.. toy hunting that is. So here are the additional plastic weights for my shelves to support which I have acquired this 2013.

        Oh, and welcome back to me.. Yay! One thing's for sure, I'll be back posting reviews and updates more often and this time I'm pretty sure of that since I'll be having a lot of free time by the end of this month. So let's get on with the update!

TOY HAUL/ ARTICLE: Superhero Showdown Spider-man | Superhero Showdown Line

        Recently got hold of my third Superhero Showdown figure! Thanks to jedicholo's FS thread in PTK. I got this for only Php 200! Yay me!

        For those who aren't familiar with it, it's an old line created by Toy Biz the same manufacturer that handled the 6" Legends line before Hasbro owned the said company. It was released back in 2005, which includes a gimmicky game that involves cards and dice of some sort. Its scale is within 4" which makes it fully compatible with the Marvel Universe line.

Bye-Atus! (an end of a hiatus): Ultimate Haul Update & Stuffs

       It has been exactly 1 month and a week since I made my last post, and how glad am I to finally be back! Work has really been draining my energy lately, since I sit in front of a computer, photoshopping all day til the late afternoon. Though I might be on a hiatus with my posts, it didn't affect my toy hunting at all. In fact it has been a very fruitful month for me with regards to my plastic hauls.
