Imaginext Hanging Cage

Image
I'm always looking for odds and ends to spruce up Castle Doom and I thought,why not a hanging cell to hold those pain In the ass superheros  In check!When I saw the listing ,I thought the funny little goblin was there just to convey scale.I didn't think the little booger would be taking the trip on the USPS Express along with the cage. It's a little smaller than I expected but still works with the smaller scaled Marvel Universe figures. " Dooms elevators are more archaic than the ones In my NYC apartment building ."  " I'll just grab a seat and shut this door and press . ..." KLANK! " Awe crap !" I borrowed an eye hook from Magneto ,screwed that baby in and voila! 

Marvel Toybiz - Magneto

Recently,I won an ebay auction for two Magneto figures.One was the Marvel Showdown  3 3/4 Mags and the other one ,this Toybiz beauty.Funny how as a kid you'll have no problem  overlooking the unsightly aesthetics of  a toy just because your so happy to have that character In the form of an action figure.Figures like quick change Bruce Wayne and Iron Man come to mind.And you thought Funko Pops had big noggins?Melon head...I mean Magneto here Is no exception. This,I feel,was the big draw.Being able to remove Magnetos helmet was key because much like In  the comics,he didn't wear It 24-7.Plus you were able to have It fly off after a Wolverine clawing. While some thought the removable helmet was the coolest thing about this Magneto figure,others thought his hidden feature was even cooler! * Kinda looks like Trump,doesn't he? Lets give Magneto the old eye hook test shall we? Yes!Magnetos magnet feature still works!Come to think of It,does magnetism ever

Best Adaption

No movie adaptation blew me away more than the first Spiderman ,with Tobey Maguire.The scene where he first discovers his powers Is so unforgettable!Everything about that movie was epic.One of the best times I've ever had watching a movie.                                   Check out these other great big screen transitions  Mr.Smith gives us 5 finalists Alexis deals out some Justice!
