Today’s Figure of the Day is the SH Monsterarts Godzilla -1.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Neca Gears of War 2 Marcus Fenix! Chainsaw Bayonets rule.

MUTAVORE! KAIJU CATAGORY TRES! BRINGING YOU THE END TIMES! Today’s Figure of the Day is the Neca Pacific Rim Mutavore!

“What did uou do to Gears you monsters! You turned him… Nice!” Today’s TF Tuesday Figure of the Day is the Walmart Retro Edition Gears! I’m keeping up with these Retro Edition Minibots. Gears is the grumpiest Autobot and he looks great. Fantastic little figure.

Today’s Mini Monday Figures of the Day are the Nozlurs Marvelous Miniatures Young Blue Dragons! I painted the crouching one last year, then discovered there was a flying one as well and decided to make them a pair -siblings perhaps? What dark designs could a pair of Young Blue Dragons get up to?

Of course Imma play with my toys in the snow

The Winterpocalypse is upon us so today’s Figure of the Day is the Star Wars Action Fleet AT-AT!

We’re gonna need to buld a fire to stay warm so grab some marshmallows to roast, because today’s Figure of the Day is the Mattel Stay-Puft Light Up Burnt Marshmallow Man! This is a Kaiju toy and I won’t hear otherwise.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the SH Figuarts Carmeara from Ultraman Trigger Evil Ultras are rare. Female Ultras doubly so. So Carmeara here is fairly unique - or would be was she not a flat remake of the villainess of the Ultraman Tiga film.

“This is the way.” Today’s TF Tuesday Figure of the Day is the Transformers X Star Wars Collaborative Mandolorian N-1 Starfighter! A long time ago, in a toyline far far away, TF and SW did a line of crossover toys. They were terrible. A few made it to almost decent but no, the line was bad.

Today’s Mini Monday Figure of the Day is the Wpix Encounters Village of the Goblin Chief and Swamp of the Hydra! Part of the reason I love these Epic Encounters sets so much is the attention to detail and subtle creativity in them. Goblins are pretty common D&D foes so how creative can you be?

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Star Wars the Black Series Pyke Soldier! I was a fan of the Pykes before it was cool. Still prefer the Clone Wars look.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Chazbo Toys Tejara Tower! Tejara is the Texas Kaiju mascot of the Kaiju Go event in Dallas I’ve attended the last few years. This Exclusive Vinyl figure has him guarding the Dallas Reunion Tower in a homage to Godzilla Tower from Godzilla vs Gigan.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the SH Figuarts Ultraseven! While Ultraman started the franchise, Ultraseven was the one that cemented it. It’s widely regarded as the best of the Showa Ultra series, with deep plots and sci-fi concepts every bit as good as its contemporary, Star Trek.

Today’s TF Tuesday Figure of the Day is the Age of the Primes Big Convoy from Beast Wars Neo! Pretty surprised they used the name Convoy for this (as that is the Japanese “Prime” equivalent). The question really is, how accurate is too accurate?

Today’s Mini Monday Figure of the Day is the Nolzur’s Marvelous Miniatures Young Bronze Dragon (and hatchling!) I’m slowly filling out my D&D young dragon collection.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the SH Figuarts Alien Hipporit! Ultraman Ace was an exceptionally weird show. This goofy guy here was supposed to be a major threat - and actually defeated Ace and most the Ultra Brothers and forcing Father of Ultra to sacrifice himself before Ace could beat him.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Diamonds Select Pacific Rim Uprising Guardian Bravo! He’s a pretty generic Jaeger. But he does have a cool whip.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Teenager Mutant Nonja Turtles X Godzilla Raphael as Rodan! This is such a goofy crossover line. I want all three but thus far I’ve only been able to find this one.

Today’s TF Tuesday Figures of the Day is the Transformers X Hot Wheels Collaborative Twin Mill and Bone Shaker! I’m not super big on Hot Wheels but even I recognized these iconic little cars and these are very solid TF figures.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the D&D Icons of the Realms Chardalyn Dragon! Forged by a mad Dark Dwarf King, the Chardalyn Dragons bring doom on the realm - that is unless the bravest heroes in the land can take it down, as my players did this weekend in one of the most epic battles I’ve ever run!

And now my Top Ten Figures of the Year! I got a lot more figures this year than I intended to but they did help me through some very hard times. Narrowing them down to just 10 was a task, but ultimately I chose the most fun. There are several figures that I’m stunned didn’t make the list.

Today’s Figure of the Year candidates are a grab bag of assorted things outside my normal collection silos - and Star Wars.

Of course, my toughest and favorite catagory for Figures of the Year is Godzilla, Ultraman and Kaiju and wow did we get some absolutely stunning figures.

It’s TF Tuesday so here are my Transforming Contenders for Figure of the Year! I hadn’t meant to get a lot of Transformers this year but that failed. Age of the Primes wasn’t super interesting to me so I figured I wouldn’t be getting many. But almost all the ones I did get are absolute bangers.

This week we are reviewing my favorite figures of this year! Each day I’ll break out my favorites in each of four categories - Minis, Transformers, Godzilla, Ultraman and Kaiju, and Starwars and Others, then I’ll pick my top ten figures on Friday.

For my last regular Figure of the Day in 2025, it’s the SHFiguarts Alien Metron “The Marked Town” Version! Metron is the most iconic alien to come from Ultraseven with good reason. This sinister invader is remarkably chill…

Wishing you a Merry Christmas, today’s Figure of the Day is the Neca Winter Gremlins Sets 1&2! May you keep your Mogwai dry this Christmas, and don’t feed them after midnight.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Hiya Toys King Ghidorah 2019! Last year I called this guy the crown jewel of my collection.

The year is coming to a close so let’s wrap up with one of my favorite figures from last year. Today’s TF Tuesday Figure of the Day is the Transformers Studio Series 86 Optimus Prime!

Today’s Mini Monday Figure of the Day is the Critical Role Swavain Bassilisk two ways! I’ve been working on my next D&D campaign which will be a homebrew sea based campaign. Unfortunately there are not a ton of Sea Serpent minis, which is why these Critical Role Bassilisks are a lifesaver.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Neca Pacific Rim SDCC Exclusive Replica Prop Set! This is easily my favorite PacRim collectible. It’s a replica set of some tiny toys glimpsed briefly in the prologue of the movie. It’s such a bizarre little in universe thing that I love so very much.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the SH Monsterarts Godzilla Singular Point Rodan! Rodans cool and all but they really should stick to bendy wire for the wings. He looks too segmented. But he does come with an entire flock of mini Rodans!

Today’s Figure of the Day is the SH Figuarts Alien Dada Human Specimens 5 & 6 Version! Alien Dada is one of the goofiest and most iconic Ultraman foes. This rerelease celebrating his introductory episode phenomenally brings his striking zebra patterns to life.

“You and me, we’re gonna tangle, right here, right now, HHEEYYYYAAAHHHH” Today’s TF Tuesday Figure of the Day is the Age of the Primes Beast Wars Quickstrike! We Beast Wars fans are eating good. A show accurate Quickstrike was a distant dream even a few years ago…

Today’s Mini Monday Figure of the Day is the D&D Icons of the Realms Arveiaturace, the Ancient White Dragon!

Today’s Figure of the Day is the SH Monsterarts Godzilla 2000 from Godzilla vs Megaguirus! New favorite Goji just dropped.

In honor of Mom and her Hospital stay, today’s Figure of the Day is her favorite Kaiju, the SH Monsterarts Mothra 1992! This is actually one of the very first articulated Kaiju I got. Her wings are top heavy but almost everything on her can move so for a literal butterfly, she’s pretty poseable.

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron TIE Reaper and TIE Striker. Cyber Monday brought the Reaper (who Id been eyeing for awhile) down to a quarter of the price, so I made the plunge. These oversized TIEs are great additions to the Imperial Navy.

Today’s TF Tuesday Figure of the Day is the Transformers Legacy Evolution Armada Wheeljack! One of the more interesting Armada characters, Wheeljack had a rocking design. He reuses the Earthrise Sideswipe mold, which until now I’ve never owned. It’s a very solid figure. Wish he had a minicon.

Today’s Mini Monday Figure of the Day is the Reaper Bones Father Dagon and Deep Ones! Yeah a lovecraftian hell beast fits my mood right now. I’ve always loved the Deep Ones and Father Dagon is their lord. These guys look great and I hope to set them against some players properly someday.

“Tell me one of those stories. Your choice.” “Very well. A Long Time Ago, in a Galaxy Far Far Away…” Today’s Figure of the Day is the Star Wars: The Black Series Professor Huyang!

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Good Smile Nendoroid Pelops II! This is a Godzilla toy.

“Sitting around doing nothing wont get us anywhere!” Today’s Figure of the Day is the SH Figuarts Ultraman Geed Primitive (New Generation Version)!

So on Black Friday, walmart was selling two packs of older Transformers at dirt cheap. And it just so happened that one of the two packs were two figures I had wanted and missed out on. Let’s start with the spaceship. Today’s TF Tuesday Figure of the Day is the Transformers Legacy United Cosmos!

Today’s Mini Monday Figures of the Day is the Icewind Dale and Nozlurs Marvelous Miniatures Abominable Yeti! I love me some Yetis. The Red Yeti was a boss in my Icewind Dale campaign that I painted myself to get his blood stained look. He was a formidable opponent until our Paladin critted him!

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Neca Ultimates Gremlins Gizmo! It’s officially the Christmas season and Gizmo is here to welcome it in! He comes with a bunch of faces and an eyeball gimmick that never quite worked right, but he comes with things to make him Rambo or a cheery Christmas mascot!

Today’s Figure of the Day is the Hammond Collection Jurassic World Dominion Theraza-… Thoraza-…. Therza-… Wolverine Turkey. Happy Thanksgiving!

Today’s Figure of the Day are the Funko Pop Tom Servo and Crow T Robot! In honor of the annual MSt3K Turkey Day, it’s good to have some friends to watch movies with.

Today’s TF Tuesday Figure of the Dayos the Transformers Generations Fall of Cybertron Optimus Prime! This is a killer little deluxe. I’d love to see him get the Studio Series treatment because other than the small size, this thing is near perfection.
