I know a lot of people have been waiting for the Fwoosh to put Kromius from this year’s Fantastic Exclusive up for order. And, it’s really not my fault that it took so long – at least this time. 😀

Finally, the moment you’ve waited for has arrived!

You, yes, you, dear collector, can order a silver-skinned elemental from the Fwoosh – specifically, Kromius, our very own Fantastic Exclusive variant! Imagine the fun you’ll have romping and stomping around your toy room with… Uh, I mean, displaying this fine collectible in your museum-like gallery of action figure artwork.

Q: What’s Better Than Storing Your Action Figures in Big Plastic Tubs?

A: Actually having space to display them! 😀

A couple of days ago, I was lamenting having to move all of the action figures I had, not because we were moving, but because we had decided to install new carpeting. A few of them were on display in a small bookshelf that was mostly filled with books, and the balance were stored in big plastic tubs that I used to call “Staging Area One.” The carpet went in earlier this week, and I’ve been spending the last couple of days setting up the new display.

We got rid of the old bookshelf and added more shelving cubes. In all, there are forty-nine 1-foot square cubes, and I’ve got figures in thirty-one of them, and extra figures and customizing supplies in fourteen more. I’d guess I’ve got at least five times more display space than I used to.

Seventh Kingdom – Raavia and Shield of Draumm – RTM Exclusives

Last week I reviewed Queen Alluxandra and Isadorra, the first two exclusive figures from the Four Horsemen’s Seventh Kingdom line. I picked those up at San Diego Comic-Con, but there’s plenty of variants that are just starting to become available from the various online media and retail outlets that the Four Horseman have been partnering with to bring you this line. This review covers the first one of those variants that I’ve picked up, Raavia the red cat, from Raving Toy Maniac. As a bonus, I also picked up RTM’s Fantastic Exclusive from last year, the Shield of Draumm, the hippo from Ramathorr’s council of guards.

Before I get ahead of myself, I want to point out how great it is dealing with Rob and Bobbi, the good folks that run RTM. They put up their order page for Raavia on Monday, and by Thursday I had these figures in my hands.

Seventh Kingdom – Queen Alluxandra and Isadorra

In an industry that is dominated by licensed properties, the Four Horsemen have forged ahead with the Seventh Kingdom, a non-licensed property of their own creation. Seventh Kingdom is one line within the umbrella of the Horsemen’s Fantastic Exclusive, in which fans help determine the product characteristics, like character selection and articulation.

The Seventh Kingdom’s Queen Alluxandra and Isadorra are part of the 3rd round of Fantastic Exclusives. The first round was headlined by Xetheus the minotaur, and the second was headlined by Ramathorr the elephant, both from the Seventh Kingdom as well. I picked up Queen Alluxandra and Isadorra at the Four Horsemen’s booth at San Diego Comic-Con.

San Diego Comic-Con Four Horsemen Pics

The Four Horsemen are all such nice guys, and it’s good to see them succeeding with their non-licensed properties.

7th Kingdom – The Four Horsemen had production figures of the Queen and her court on display. They turned out fantastic, and I’m not just saying that because this line is the Fantastic Exclusive this year. Although I had toyed with waiting to get an entire set, they had Queen Alluxandra and Isadorra on sale, and couldn’t resist. Look for a more in depth review of those when I get back from Comic-Con.

For more info on these ladies, check out our recap of Queen Alluxandra and her court.

Gothitropolis – This (mostly) Egyptian-themed line is shaping up. The Four Horsemen revealed some of the variant heads a couple of weeks ago, and there were a few more on display at their section of the AFX booth. Scarabus is still the only named figure at the present time. I’m hoping one gets named Fwooshius.

Fans of anthropomorphs, have fun!
