I’m back baby! *smokes his cigar* and just in time to review my “favorite” TV show, The Legend of Korra. As many of you know, we’ve never quite seen eye to eye given the fact I wanted a quality show and LOK responded to my wishes by pounding me into the dirt and kicking my face in over and over via some truly horrendous writing (and animation in early book 2).
Now it’s back again with a third season promising us a true return to form, does the first half of Book 3: Change deliver on this promise or are we …
Asuka Kazama Bishoujo Statue!

A line of “alternate” appearance statues have been created in Japan (where else) of the female characters from Tekken Tag Tournament 2. Some in the line are Christie Monteiro, Jay Cee (Julia Chang), and a few others…however, what caught my eye was the limited edition of 1500 world wide, Asuka Kazama.
Asuka is from Osaka Japan, her name Kazama may sound familiar to Tekken fans as being the last name of Jin and Jun; her relationship to them is probably being the daughter of Jun’s brother and Jin’s cousin. In Tekken 5, her ending is really funny and makes her appear …

As the most powerful Editor-In-Chief in the universe I stole this months MOTUC review from Miss M in a power play…just kidding, I actually bought Extendar from her and said I’d do the review because I wanted to open him…
On we go!
Extendar came out towards the end of the line in the 80’s and was one of the coolest figures that Mattel had offered for the masses—however, he was a bit harder to find then many of the others. I do however, remember going to a place called “Kiddie City” and there was a huge wall full of MOTU …
Jun Kazama: Playarts Toy Review!

From Tekken Tag Tournament 2 is an awesome action figure of Jun Kazama. Jun hasn’t been in a Tekken game since part 2—she now returns as a fully articulated and finely detailed figure that could double as a statue.
Packaged in an amazing window box with an opening flap and even foil text; don’t be fooled, the image of Jun is actually the figure.
The back of the box has another image of Jun and even shows Kazuya Mishima as being another of the figures available from the series. The writing is mostly in Japanese because that is where the figure …
Transformers Animated: The Complete Series; DVD Review!

New on DVD from SHOUT! Factory and Hasbro is Transformers Animated: The Complete Series. Spanning 6 DVD’s holding 42 episodes of what I feel is the best version of Transformers lore since the original 80’s cartoon.
Transformers Animated has taken a lot of flak for being cartoony and almost childish—the exclusion of guns over melee and other gripes here and there. What people are missing is the beautiful HAND DRAWN artwork and animation, the interesting story that unfolds throughout the entire series and seeing their favorite characters depicted in a more unconventional way.
The stand out episode comes from Season …
X-Men: Days Of Future Past, Movie Review (CCFMDS REMIX)!

X-Men: Days of Future Past is an energetic blast of summer entertainment. Smart,
engaging, and filled with eye-popping action and a surprisingly emotional story,
it’s a superhero movie done right. An all-star cast along with some clever
action and a few nifty new twists makes X-Men the most enjoyable superhero movie
of 2014 so far.
Wolverine (a buff, restrained Hugh Jackman) must go back in time to prevent
Raven/Mystique (alluring mega-star Jennifer Lawrence) from killing mutant-hating
dwarf Bolliver Traak. Her actions bring about the rise of the sentinels and the end
of mankind/mutant kind. The future is one of those desolate …
Movie Review: X-Men Days of Future Past (Small Spoilers!)

The ultimate X-Men ensemble film is here at last, and with so much ridding on it everyone is understandably curious as to how Singer and company were able to handle a massive cast of characters, two separate time lines, developing the stories of the old & new cast while giving the former a proper swan song and the later a new playground to build future movies out of. With so many things to tackle in a little over two hours, many (myself included) expected a repeat of the Amazing Spider-Man 2, what we get instead is one of the most well …

Out of all the DC weeklies announced thus far, Batman Eternal has been the one to receive and earn the most attention for a lot of reasons. With a collaborative effort between some of the finest Batman related writers working at DC such as Scott Snyder, James Tynion IV, John Layman, Ray Fawkes, Tim Seeley and artists such as Jason Fabok, Dustin Nguyen and Guillem March,…
Many readers, myself included nothing less than excellence from this incredible line up of creators in-charge of it. Does the series which promises to encompass the entire Batman universe, including some lesser used characters and …

Out of Bounds ~ A short animated film
Catastrophe, it is in the eye of the beholder. Prevention is the key, I use the term prevention, loosely. The key that may lock our doorway to any outside world other than our own. This door can lead to much misconception. Which inevitably, brings one to the endless circle of things I have previously discussed and brought to point in my last few reviews. However we see ourselves, living these messy, complicated and obsessed lives, our frail attempts at controlling them. We figure out that our safety and securities are often displayed thru a fish bowl for the world to see. …
