White Ranger & Ivan Ooze - Legacy Power Rangers

This weeks Action Figure Adventures video of the White Ranger and Ivan Ooze got posted late. These guys are Toys R Us exclusives and are part of the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers Legacy Collection. They are based off the original Power Ranger movie.

Star Wars Episode 7 Predictions from 2005

Back in 2005 was was still producing content for a (now defunct) website. I made the following two comics as my prediction for Star Wars Episode 7. I made these about a month after the release of Revenge of the Sith. I've been dying to see what happens after Return of the Jedi since I first saw it in the 80's.

Poison Ivy - DC Signature Collection

DC Signature Collection by Mattel gave us many amazing DC Comics heroes and villains including Poison Ivy. This figure has a excellent sculpt and beautiful paint job. Poison Ivy looks both sexy and deadly. I love how striking her eyes are on this figure.

 Poison Ivy has pale green skin (top photo has more accurate color) and is wearing only a dark green swim suit. She has leave throughout her hair and outfit. She also came with three vine accessories that wrap around her arms and legs. The sculpt work on her hair is really impressive.

Renegade Predator

The Renegade Predator was part of a really cool Kenner 2-Pack that included the Warrior Alien. I picked this guy up at a flea market last year I think My best buddy Derek had him and the Alien when we were kids. The cool thing about this set is that both the Predator and the Alien looked like they jumped out of the movies. They weren't real strange variations.

Renegade Predator has yellowish skin and wears tan armor. He has a laser cannon sculpted onto his shoulder. He comes with two removable accessories. One is his mask and the other is a bladed weapon (not pictured).

Check out that gruesome face under the mask. He's got great dreadlocks sculpted on the back.

Huffer and Blackjack - Combiner Wars Transformers

Two new Combiner Wars figures, Huffer and Blackjack. Huffer is orange and blue and turns into a truck. Blackjack is dark gray and purple and turns into a car. They each include a trading card and one weapon accessory. I really like Blackjack's battle ax.

Sabertooth - Toy Biz

This is the 2nd version of Sabertooth to be released by Toybiz during their massive 1990's X-Men toy line. The first Sabertooth was one of the few figures to slip past me at retail as a kid. After my GI Joe phase I moved on to Turtles. Then by late elementary school I was asking for X-Men for every Birthday and Christmas. This was the first and only version of him I owned. He mirrors the way he looked in the 90's cartoon.

Sabertooth has a cool action feature where his arms move slightly and his mouth opens when you squeeze his legs together. I had a ton of fun with him as a kid and was constantly having him battle my Wolverine figure. For a long time as a kid I was very confused about his back story due to the fact that Sabertooth was lying to Wolverine (who didn't remember much of his past) in the comics.

I still find in interesting how much he's fluctuated between a shaggy man and a humanoid beast in various incarnations.

DC Multiverse - Joker, Red Hood, Scarecrow, Robin, Black Mask, & Two-Face

Today I've got a review for you guy of a whole mess of these Batman Video Game figures from the DC Multiverse Line. I've got the Joker, Red Hood, Scarecrow, Robin, Black Mask, & Two-Face. These guys all have 11 or so points of articulation. Unfortunately Black Mask is the only one to come with any accessories.

It's a Battle Royale

Black Mask & the Joker

Scarecrow & Two-Face

Red Hood and Robin

I really like the Red Hood figure the most out of this bunch. Two-Face is pretty cool as well.

Happy Easter from Action Figure Adventures

I'd like to wish everyone a great Easter. Hopefully the Easter Bunny left you something good.

Chewbacca - Vintage Star Wars

Chewbacca, everyone's favorite Wookie is one of the most classic of vintage Star Wars figures. This furry hunk of brown plastic was in every toy chest in the late 70's and early 80's. Like the Stormtrooper, Chewie only features four points of articulation. He doesn't have a joint at his neck. Besides a little paint on his bandier, his eyes, nose, and mouth are his only other paint apps.

Chewie came with his Bowcaster weapon which is pretty accurate to how it looked in the film.... minus the actual bow part. The Bowcaster is one of the few Star Wars weapons cast with an extra "tab" to help the figure hang on to their weapon.

I'm still a little disappointed they never made the rest of Chewbacca's family from the Star Wars Holiday Special. They would have really added a lot of extra play value to the Galaxy Far, Far Away.

Oo-Lar & Huntara - MOTUC

Matty Collector's figures for the month of March were Oo-Lar and Huntara. The MOTUC figures are perhaps not instantly recognizable to the masses, but to die-hard fans these are awesome characters to add to our collections.

 Oo-Lar is basically He-Man from the original mini-comic before he's given his power harness and weapons. This is the back story for the character before he was retconned by the Filmation cartoon into being Prince Adam/He-Man. He's basically He-Man wearing just a loin cloth with a new meaner head sculpt. He does come with some nice accessories, but not the ones he's pictured with above.

Huntara is a galactic bounty hunter who Hordak hires to go after She-Ra. Huntara isn't exactly a bad guys, even though she goes after the Princess of Power.

It took a long time but we finally have heads for both He-Man and Skeletor that match the way the looked in the original mini-comics. I think that's pretty cool. Check out my video review below for more details on the figures including what accessories they came with.
