Introduction for anyone new:

I’m an educator whose career transitioned from public school, to university, to edtech, to owning my own business. And it all started because I met a girl 29 years ago and learned Spanish to get a date.

Oh, and I’m also an avid toy collector. 😎
I cannot express how excited I am for this.

Masters of the Universe Snake Mountain! It gets a lot of stick for not looking like the toon but it’s actually really fun. The mic is a hoot. The use of the negative space of the exterior detail to create scary faces on the interior is very clever. Shame about the frail shackles #vintagetoytuesday

Needed to leave 40 minutes ago, but I had to let the car warm up. Doors and trunk were frozen shut when I got to it. Hoping the drive through the country to DFW is not too dangerous this morning.

If you own the KO Japanese Headmaster set from a few years back, there are subtle difference in the plastic color on the new Headmaster figure. Left is from the new Black Zarak release, right is from the Headmaster set.

I couldn’t wait to get back from DFW this week. Had to open Black Zarak. He’s glorious! Great quality plastic and solid joints. Going to sticker him up this weekend (before the MASK vehicles) and order Scorponok too.

Masterverse Vintage Collection Stratos in all color possibilities. Cue that Right Said Fred song.

Masterverse Vintage Collection Stratos is greatness. He’s the Stratos I didn’t know I needed. He comes with all the colors of gear, and the rockets are removable from the harness. Make sure you dig in the box for the red harness. It’s not in the paper pouch.

#botaday Ultra Magnus. It's December. The final month of daily drawings begins with Classics Ultra Magnus, a white redeco of the Classics Optimus Prime. Magnus was sold in a two-pack with Skywarp as "The Battle for Autobot City" set sold exclusively at Target stores in 2007.

This is my favorite 80’s copter, minus Airwolf. And The Loyal Subjects did a really great job brining it back.

I will never not love every version of this mold.
Transformers Energon Appreciation Series
Part 98 (of 99): Botcon Pirates vs. Knights Scorponok

And we have one final Botcon reuse of an Energon figure as Energon Scorponok is retooled to more closely resemble his G1 counterpart, including a Headmaster.

The amount of attention this post got cracks me up.
Ok, it’s not quite the Holiday Turkey from Earl of Sandwich (forgot to make the gravy) but it’s good enough.

Black Zarack arrived yesterday. Gonna open this greatness up today. I’d love for this to be done with other super rare G1 figures, especially those with GPS.

The pilots come with 2 masks, one style with effects (see previous post) and one style with no effects. Would have preferred both styles with no effects, with one having the effect, but costing probably killed that.

I love the sharpness of the sculpts.

And now the M.A.S.K. pilots! Matt Tracker and Miles Mayhem. The paint apps and the new articulation are great! I would have liked for them to at least have elbows, but I’m guessing nostalgia nixed that? Otherwise, great figures with slight balance issues.

I was super excited for the Switchblade! I’m mostly happy. Looks AMAZING, but the spring loaded feature are easily triggered and don’t lock well. The chrome on the top of mine came pre scratched from the factory. :( I’ll post stickered pics later this week

Thunderhawk looks great and feels solid. The spring loaded features are good, but the disc launcher barely fires (safety). These come with stickers, which I consider a chore, but I’m sure some will love. Matt cannot reach the steering wheel, btw.
