BattleGrip has started the individual reviews for each Bertie from the WWRP Bertie Adventure 7-Pack, including the exclusive bloody Dirty Deeds variant and Warbot, which we won’t see released at retail. I’ve probably missed some of the reviews in my quick look there today, but they’ve got so much robot goodness going on recently there’s a lot of great stuff to go through.
The MattyCollector.com sales date in April was moved from April 15 to April 19 to accommodate more improvements in the sales process at Digital River. Quick sellouts will continue, though, since the production increases don’t kick in until this summer. So if you’re looking to pick up Evil-Lyn (and who isn’t?) you will need to be quick.

Better late than never? Since I missed out on Stratos the first time around, I figured I’d do a pictorial review of him now that I finally have him with his recent reissue at Mattycollector.com. (As of this writing he has since sold out again.) Let’s have a look, shall we?
A couple of months back, we posted a guest review from MatthewK of the World War Robot Portable Winter Bramble. Matt and some other friends had been telling me about this great line of vinyl toys from Ashley Wood, and I knew it was a matter of time before I’d cave in. Problem was, by the time that happened, the Brambles were only available on the secondary market, going for 3 times the original retail price or higher.
So when I was pointed to an online store where the going price was only double what I would have paid if I had only listened to reason back then, I decided to jump on the bandwagon and picked up two Brambles, the Euro and the Merc.
