Hi – Here is a quick update from http://www.bigbadtoystore.com about a
variety of new preorders and more new arrivals. Our Winter Clearance Sale
is still running – take a look at some of the deals here:
Okay…for those ambitious folks like myself who know how to track certain “things” down…. :shifty:
Hulk Vs. Wolverine has been “in the wild” for about a week now, for people who can’t wait for the inevitable DVD release. Honestly, I could have waited, but I was bored earlier this week, so I gave it a quick download to check it out. Didn’t have time yet to catch the Thor half, but I did watch the Wolverine portion of it, and it was pretty damn good. Not perfect, but really good.
My buddies over at GIJoeReview have been doing their podcast for a while now and for whatever reason I’ve shirked in my duties letting the online community know about it. It’s mostly focused on the comics, and with IDW taking the license and running with it just last week, they devote a good portion of their show to that, and even scored an interview with IDW Editor Andy Schmidt.
It’s a great listen whether you’re a Joefan, a comic fan, or both. Check it out!
So far I haven’t been willing to give this the shot it probably deserves. I’m not real big on the “camp” nature of Batman or the Golden Age of super hero comics, I much prefer my world gritty and serious…does that make me a bad comic fan? 😉
Just in case anyone was curious…I know I supplied my own review for this first issue of G.I. Joe, but in case folks want other opinions, here are some reviews that you may not have seen scattered around the web:
I know there are tons of others out there, but these were some of the more obscure ones that I thought people might not know about. So far getting pretty decent reviews…
Clone Wars Wave 4 and Legacy Wave 5 have shipped from Hasbro and will be arriving soon at Brian’s Toys! New this week, we have added tons of AFA items including new AFA-Blue Labeled and loose vintage figures. Check out new pre-orders such as the Ultimate Quarter Scale Anakin and Luke Skywalker. Go to www.brianstoys.com for all the greatest Star Wars, GI Joe, and Transformers toys on the Internet!
Battlestar Galactica captured my attention when it first started and hasn’t really let go since. I faltered a bit during Season 3, but this lead up to Season 4 has re-ignited my love of this series, and I’m getting antsy waiting for 10:00pm tonight!
Long time Joefan “Smokescreen” has fired up a new player in the website/forum game, One-18TH.com. He is attempting to tackle the entire 1:18 scale from Star Wars to Captain Power, G.I. Joe, and the upcoming Fury Files Marvel toys. The forum is already pretty active, and the interface is cool as well. Give it a whirl, lots of Joefans there already!
