Most wanted Star Wars Black Series figures from each Mandalorian season 3 episode

Image
(Image Source) Season 3 of the Mandalorian has wrapped up with a series finale that honestly felt like it could have been the series finale! While we know the show will continue, this season wrapped up in an extremely satisfying way. Black Series from Hasbro has already started to reveal some figures from this season like a new R4, as well as the "Mandalorian Fleet Commander" but there are designs introduced in this season that are much more in needing of action figure representation! With 8 new episodes of the Mandalorian now ingrained in Star Wars history, these are my most wanted figures from each episode! 17: High Magistrate Karga (Image Source) Another season and another new costume for Carl Weathers! It seems that he is becoming more and more regal with each passing season, a trend that I'm curious to see whether or not it continues! His recent new digs would add to the trinity of Carl Weathers that we'd have on the shelf, and I would be all in on this figure if...

Top 5 wanted Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron ships from the original trilogy vol 2

Image
(Image Source) Jazwares' Micro Galaxy Squadron has been firing on all cylinders and giving us some incredible representations of vehicles across the Star Wars franchise! It has easily become one of my favorite toylines to date, and their presence at Star Wars Celebration floored me with some absolutely incredible reveals! Long time original trilogy wants for the line have been checked off like the Y-Wing bomber, the Snowspeeder, Luke's Landspeeder, as well as an epic looking AT-AT! Not to mention so many other ships from the original trilogy like the Tie Interceptor and Bomber, so the list of ships left to do from those original three iconic films is dwindling; however, there's still a few more to go through so with the future of the line looking bright here is my volume 2 of most wanted ships from the Star Wars original trilogy! 5. Live creatures (Image 1 Source)   (Image 2 Source) Coming in the last slot simply because I'm not sure if the line would do them: the live ...

Top 5 most wanted updated Transformers Cybertron figures

Image
(Image Source) The Transformers Cybertron show is one that Hasbro has been slowly dipping into with recent years, starting with Optimus Prime back during Siege, and more recently with an awesome Override and an epic Metroplex which took 2022's slot as the premium Titan class figure! While the overall quality of the show is up for debate, it stands as a show already with its foot in the Legacy roster, and several really fun designs and characters that I'd love to see updated and reintroduced into current toylines! 5. Thundercracker (Image Source) One of the first Decepticons we are introduced to in the show is the wild, gung-ho Thundercracker whose over the top accent made him one of the easily recognizable characters from the cast! He also was not a simple recolor of Starscream, with the show giving him his own dedicated design to further set him apart as his own character! 4. Scrapmetal (Image Source) If there is one design that is iconic to me from the series it would have to...

Ranking my excitement for all 5 tv shows announced for James Gunn's DCU

Image
(Image Source) James Gunn's DCU series is branching out into several forms of media, and while I've already gone over the movies in his initial line up that are coming out, I'm going to now talk about the five television shows hitting in the next several years. There are some projects here that I'm really looking forward to, and some that I am not as excited about, but it all promises to introduce plenty of exciting characters from the comics and widen out the breadth of this new DC series! 5. Waller (Image Source) At the bottom of the list is the project I'm overall least excited about from all 10 projects, and that would be the Amanda Waller led tv show. I'm sure that given the right direction, story, and production it can come out great, I'm just not as interested in a tv show all about Amanda Waller as I am other prospects of the DC universe. I think she's worked really well as a side figure in the realm of the government from The Suicide Squad and B...

Ranking my excitement for all 5 films announced for James Gunn's DCU

Image
(Image Source) James Gunn made waves in comic book news earlier this year when he debuted the initial line up for his Chapter 1 of the rebooted DCU movie universe that'll be upcoming in the next few years! 10 projects in total were unveiled, five movies and five tv shows, and all of them seeming very promising in giving us a diverse, interconnected DC movie universe that I couldn't be more excited for! There are definitely a few surprises that I wouldn't have guessed to be coming in the line up, especially so early into the universe's incarnation, and starting with the movies from the announcement this is my ranking of my excitement for the five initial films in James Gunn's DCU chapter 1! 5. Superman: Legacy (Image Source) I am a huge Superman fan and cannot wait to see another film for one of the world's greatest superheroes on the big screen again! I'm among the population who were disappointed to hear that Henry Cavill would not be returning to the role;...

Top 5 wanted Star Wars Micro Galaxy Squadron Separatist droid ships

Image
(Image Source) One of my favorite designed factions from the Star Wars universe is certainly the Separatist armada from the Star Wars prequel trilogy! The droid army and every vehicle in their arsenal have some great designs that make them some of the most fun and unique ships in the Star Wars universe! We've dipped our toes into the Confederacy garage but I'm hoping Jazwares' Micro Galaxy Squadron toyline will dive headlong into this side of the galaxy, especially with how many Republic Clone and Jedi ships we've gotten so far! 5. Vulture Droid (Image Source) We've seen this design appear in the cardstock art of so many releases at this point, and typically it seems that once a ship design it used for cardstock artwork on the packaging it is either out in the line or coming out in the next wave or 2. So I'm expecting the Vulture Droid to come out soon in either waves 4 or 5, and I'm really excited for when it does to have droid starships to go up against th...
