Top 5 wanted S.H.Figuarts One Piece Dressrosa arc figures

Image
One of the grandest One Piece storylines of all time and easily the best of the post-time skip material in the series, even if the arc itself dragged on a bit longer than it probably should have. I know, I know, that is what everyone says and I hate to fall into the majority but Dressrosa truly was too long, a looooot of time spent with the other fighters in the gladiatorial arena, but the final product was a truly emotional and standout storyline with so many magnificently crafted moments throughout. It vaulted the series forward and also delivered to us one of the most frightening and cruel villains up to this point, that being Doflamingo, someone we had seen throughout the show but never truly encountered on a personal scale until now. SPOILERS will be ahead, but really, as long as it is Dressrosa came out quite a while ago! 5. Luffy Are they pineapples? Whatever is on Luffy's shirt in this arc is a print easily recognizable by fans and instantly associated with Dressrosa. That ...

Top 5 most wanted Jazwares Pokemon 12" epic battle figures

Image
(Banner Image Source)   (Following Images Source) Jazwares' Epic scale Pokemon figures are few and far between but very fun nonetheless and the latest release is no different with the epic Golurk! There's so many larger than life Pokemon that would fit into this scale who deserve new figure releases, and I'm frankly shocked we don't get more of these every year! Here's hoping the upcoming release of Winds and Waves churns more life into the line, because there's so  many Pokemon I want immediately! 5. Ho-Oh We got Lugia several years ago at this point, and rumor has it we are even getting a 6 inch scale Selects Lugia release! Lugia's generational counterpart is long overdue for a figure, and the multicolor appearance of Ho-Oh's feathers would looks amazing as a wide wingspanned epic scale figure! Especially as we got the Legendary Beasts several years ago at this point too, leaving Pokemon Silver and Gold as long overdue for their obvious companion piece...

Top 5 most wanted Pokemon Selects 6" Jazwares figures

Image
With the Target preorders going up for Incineroar and Mega Lucario that means all of the revealed Pokemon 6inch Selects figures from Jazwares have been released to this point. I've seen a few of the recent releases plentiful at Targets, like Armarouge and Gallade, but there are others I'm desperately hoping for a rerelease of (like Tyranitar and Raikou). While not officially in scale with their Battle Scale Pokemon, I think Jazwares Selects line is a fantastic way to get lots of Pokemon that can be fudged into the display like a lot of the dragons and legendary Pokemon. I'm expecting new releases to be revealed soon since our pipeline is empty at the moment, and these are the five Pokemon across the franchise I hope to see next! (Banner Images Source)    (Following Images Source) 5. Aggron and Armaldo A couple of random picks, but then we've seen Pokemon like Golisopod get Selects figures in the past. I really like these two Hoenn Pokemon, Armaldo in particular because ...

Top 5 most wanted Blokees Galaxy Version G1 Transformers kits vol 3

Image
Blokees line of Galaxy 4inch scale Transformers model kits have been further and further fleshing out the cast of the G1 television series, with their latest wave, "The Lost Light," rounding out our four cityformers as well as the heralds of Unicron with Scourge. Warpath is another we've checked off, though it's a missed opportunity for him not to be a Shining Edition, and Cyclonus is one of the best thus far in the line. IDW seems to be their current big focus, but G1 is always ever present, and I've got a few more Autobots and Decepticons from the classic series that are well worth their due in the roster! (Images Source) 5. Hoist With Hoist and Trailbreaker sharing a body type I am surprised we did not get them in the same wave as we used to with characters like Prowl and Bluestreak, and Inferno and Grapple. Though I do hope an eventual Hoist leans more towards his G1 cartoon design than Trailbreaker did. He is one of the standouts from season 2 who got a great...

Top 5 most wanted Jazwares Paldea Pokemon 2" battle figures

Image
(Banner Images source)   (Following Images Source) The latest game in the franchise until Winds and Waves release, Paldea has enjoyed quite a bit of love from Jazwares as they've rounded out all three evolutions for all three starter Pokemon, multiple 6inch Selects figures, 3inch figures, and of course the smaller 2inch figures. Being the latest game in the series I expect to see more from this region soon before the next big release comes out next year, and these five are the 2inch Battle figures I want to see most from Jazwares! 5. Tarountula I've voiced before how I'm a fan of spider designs in Pokemon, and this guy takes the design to another level with the web composed body.  4. Wiglett Compared to the luscious locks of the Alolan Diglett, I do prefer the Wiglett as an alternate design to the original Kanto Pokemon. Anything made to be aquatic resonates with me, and Wiglett as a tube worm is a perfect enhancing of the design.  3. Cetoddle This is a Pokemon whose size...

Top 5 most wanted Jazwares Alolan Pokemon 2" battle figures

Image
The Alolan games were where Wicked Cool Toys picked up the Pokemon license so it is really where this current line of Pokemon began before Jazwares picked it up. We've gotten quite a few Pokemon from Alola though not very many since the start of the line which was front loaded with Alolan Pokemon. I think this region still deserves lots of focus, with so many more Pokemon species to explore, and this here will be five Pokemon that would fit into the 2" battle figure assortment! (Banner Images source)   (Following Images source) 5. Dewpider I have always been a fan of the spider Pokemon in the franchise and I find the water typing for Dewpider making for a great design overall. The green legs contrasted against the blue is a pleasing combo, and I love the ball of water that its head is encased in! 4. Crabrawler I remember seeing this Pokemon around a lot when Sun and Moon were released, and I'm surprised that it wasn't rolled out by Wicked Cool Toys and Jazwares already...

Top 5 most wanted Jazwares Galar Pokemon 2" battle figures

Image
After a bit of a hiatus where I had fallen off the games for a while, Galar was the region where I came back in full force. I was there for Sword and Shield's release and enveloped in the new region and all the new Pokemon it brought with it as well as the hyped fun of Dynamaxing! Quite a few Pokemon from this region have been done by Jazwares, including members of  my personal team during the playthrough like Toxtricity and Grimmsnarl! There's still plenty to do for the region that brought me back to the franchise though, especially these next five smaller scale first evolutions that'd fit in the 2 inch Battle scale! (Images Source) 5. Sinistea I really love this Pokemon's design and when I saw it for the first time in the game I was taken aback by the fact I was fighting a ghost tea cup! What puts it lower on the list here though is that while it may end up being a fun looking design, as a tea cup there won't be much to do with it aside from setting it plainly in ...
