The Black Friday Lazy Shopper’s Post

It’s Thanksgiving! –  that special day of the year that we stuff ourselves to the gills with turkey, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce; and then head out into the cold to await the Black Friday sales. But no, not me – I’m going to sit back and enjoy the warmth indoors, and maybe pick up a toy or two just with a few clicks of the mouse.

Hot Toys Avengers Agent Phil Coulson Preview

The Marvel Studios movies have been a powerhouse for Hot Toys. While the movies from the other studios have yielded one or two figures each, between Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and now the Avengers, there’s an army of figures.

Coulson (how cool is it that he comes with his Cap trading cards?) and Maria Hill (not yet immortalized by Hot Toys) were the ones I thought we’d never see. Now I think the last guy to get a figure might be the SHIELD Agent caught playing Galaga.

The Avengers: Agent Phil Coulson is coming soon!

The Avengers fans, Mr Clark Gregg, actor of the Agent Phil Coulson character in The Avengers movie, has just unveiled his movie-accurate Hot Toys’ collectible figure on his Twitter – https://twitter.com/clarkgregg. Here you go the photos preview! Please stay tuned with us for update soon!

(Return Of) Marvel Legends Wave 2 Big Time Spider-Man

That’s right – I’m back baby! And I’ve brought pics of the fairly new ROML 2 Big Time Spider-Man!

When I ordered this figure from HasbroToyShop.com, I was hoping I might luck out and get the Future Foundations deco Spidey as I’m not a big fan of this costume. But I must admit that he’s starting to grow on me. The new ankle design really ups BT Spidey’s cool factor and turns him into hand candy. Now if only Hasbro had used a glow-in-the-dark paint instead of simulating it with overspray…
