(Images Source) Blokees most recent wave of Galaxy Transformers model kits ended up giving me a lot of the figures I have been waiting for, rounding out the Coneheads with Thrust, rounding out the Insecticons with Bombshell, we got a killer Unicron planet mode, as well as Springer (one of my personal favorites), Trypticon to go along with Metroplex, as well as our first G1 female in Arcee! It was no doubt possibly the best wave of figures yet, especially regarding the newly implemented articulation and engineering. With Shining waves giving us Reflector, and the Defenders waves seemingly the place to get Combiners these days, I'm very much looking forward to and hoping that these five characters below will join the ever expanding line!  5. Cyclonus Thanks to a teaser on the wave 9 boxes we know that Galvatron will be coming in the next wave, seemingly continuing the trend that the recent waves have been very G1 movie based. I am all for that given how cool a lot of the new characte...

There are a few figure releases from 2025 that don't necessarily fit in to any of the lists I talked about before and are from toylines that don't necessitate their own ranking list. I still wanted to talk about them regardless as some of these figures would be amongst my overall top figures of the whole year, and some of the companies they hail from are ones I'll definitely be looking into more throughout 2026 and hope to see more of in general! In no particular order of ranking, here are five more absolutely fantastic figures from 2025 that I had to get mentioned! Blokees engineering improvements (Image Source) Something I jumped into this year was Blokees Galaxy line of Transformers model kits. Extremely fun little sets that make it affordable and easy to build out a G1 display fast, as well as a Transformers: One display, Shattered Glass display, and it seems like the future is only going to open up more of the Transformers franchise to this excellent series. With the r...

(Images Source) Blokees has definitely taken to the market in a big way with tons of Transformers fans loving these chibi-esque small easily assembled blind box model kits that have been getting better and better with each wave! The cast has expanded quickly, and they along with Yolopark are some of the best affordable non-transforming Transformers figures out there! They've got me hooked, and eagerly awaiting the reveal of their wave 10 of the Galaxy line. They've lately been alternating with the Transformers One film for their waves so it remains to be seen if wave 10 is another return to the One cast or a continuation of more G1 (or something else entirely!), but I've drawn up my most wanted Blokees Galaxy Version model kits based on the G1 continuity! 5. More Combiners Since the conclusion of the Constructicons we haven't had any more combiner teams introduced into the Galaxy line. Defender series has been pumping them out with Devastator and now Bruticus coming in ...

(Banner Images Source)   (Following Images Source) Blokees line of Pokemon figures aren't just relegated to the smaller scale Pokemon, but we have been seeing a constant stream of larger scale Pokemon produced as well in each wave. I have been loving what I've been seeing with all the model kits thus far being very faithful recreations of the game designs with exciting effect pieces and in some cases even swappable parts like Snorlax's multiple face options! With wave 3 of the Classic Version-S figures just revealed I am wagering it won't be long until the "Fever Attack" wave reveals its Classic Version-L set of four model kits, and with Kanto being undoubtedly the most popular region out there for Pokemon I'm highlighting it first for my top five most wanted Blokees Classic Version-L model kits!   5. Blastoise and Venusaur These two are two of the most obvious options, and I'm surprised neither were in wave 2, especially with both Bulbasaur and Squirt...
