Spin Master The Last Airbender Movie Toys

This week, while I was perusing the toy aisles of my local Toys R Us, I was surprised to see toys from the movie, The Last Airbender. I’m a big fan of the animated series – I even bought some of the figures that Mattel had made for the cartoon a couple of years ago.

After finding out that Spin Master has the toy license for The Last Airbender movie figures, I was crossing my fingers that the movie would be a success and that the toys would turn out well. The cartoon had a lot of fans, both kids and adults – this would be a good opportunity for Spin Master to get in on some of the collector market if the movies do well as a planned trilogy. Now the first wave of toys have come out, and I managed to pick up Aang and his flying bison, Appa.

Did Spin Master do a good job? Let’s have a look!

First Look – Masters of the Universe Classics Keldor – TheFwoosh.com

In just over a week, I hope to right the grievous wrong that was inflicted upon me. It was 2003, and I was at my first San Diego Comic-Con. I ended up in the wrong line at the Mattel booth, and instead of being able to pick up the exclusive Keldor for the MOTU 200X line, I could only get a Batman figure in the process of unmasking. Argh!

So don’t let me down, MattyCollector.com! If you sell out of this Masters of the Universe Classics Keldor figure before I can even press submit on your order page, *seven years* of frustration will be unleashed on you! Don’t say I didn’t warn you!*

The Search for Keldor is over. Yep, the conclusion to that mysterious minicomic from so many years ago is about to happen at Matty Collector. The special bonus quarterly figure for Q2 2010 is Miro’s indiscretion, Randor’s evil half-brother and He-Man’s nasty old uncle, the man that would be Skeletor, the Apprentice of Hordak (did we get all of the titles?), Keldor.

First Look – Ghostbusters Peter Venkman – TheFwoosh.com

In just over a week, you’ll get your chance to round out your set of 6-inch Ghostbusters when MattyCollector.com puts Peter Venkman up for sale. While it’s still decent, I think the Venkman head sculpt is the one that is most different from the actor’s likeness of the four Ghostbusters. It may be that Bill Murray has a tough face to render, or it could be that this is the slimed edition – perhaps they’ll get a little closer when they get around to releasing Venkman with the non-slimed head.

This Peter Venkman figure is watershed toy in a couple of ways. First, I really like the figure on its own merits – the likeness is good (though I think the un-slimed head shown at SDCC ‘09 was even better, can’t wait for that) and he is functional for some great scene recreation posing. However, as noted, we finally have all of the Ghostbusters together. Remember, 26 years and all that. So I think a lot of people will be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Let's show this prehistoric bitch how we do things downtown.
