2 MINUTE TOY BREAK !

A while back,I posted a series of  Marvel Vs. Joe pics on my Google Plus account .I figured ,why not showcase them on my blog?No-brainer,right?I had a ball putting these shots together even though It's pretty much a lose,lose situation for the Joes.I mean,you can't beat super human power /strength. I've since let go of most of these Joe figs,but have acquired some new ones .Long story short,stay tuned for Marvel Vs. Joe pics V.2 on my Google Plus account! In the meantime- DING-DING-DING!- Enjoy the match ups ;)

 Lanard  is really stepping up their game.Little by little ,the quality  of their product has improved and their variety increased.While everyone has been anticipating the release of  the CORPS! newest recruits ,mainly Impact, Lanard was quietly making moves ,acquiring the license to create King Kong figures and sets based on the upcoming film.It caught alot of us off guard largely because Lanard Isn't what one would consider a sexy name brand.It's a discount line that catered to the more frugal toy collector,kids and adults alike.So ,along comes all this super cool looking Kong merchandise and now we're thinking "Uh-oh,here come the price hikes!". But no!All Kong figures and sets still sported that familiar Lanard wallet friendly price tag.Damn,ya gotta give Lanard their due props.

I pulled the trigger on this small lot of Chap Mei military figures the other day.5 bucks and some change was all I paid for these guys,a steal If you ask me.I'm extremely late to the Chap Mei party.I see them alot on blogs,Youtube  and Instagram and always thought they looked cool.It wasn't until Brother Midnight sent me a Chap Mei troll that I would decide to give these figures a try.What I like the most about these figures Is their quality.The plastic Is very rough and tumble, reminiscent of the old Adventure People figures. They remind me alot of the old Kenner stuff ,too.You could use these with alot of other toy lines-Kenner Aliens-Jurassic Park,Swamp Thing and even the new King Kong stuff thats been coming out lately. The sculpts are enough to keep you busy .Lots of small intricacies here and there with damn near perfect paint apps.Their weapons are big,very big.A trait that  takes away from realism but distinguishes the line.I really like these guys!So much so that  I h

I'm hoping Mr.Smith doesn't mind me changing the rules up here a little ,but I'd like to give Round Robin Challengers an extra week on this assignment.Only because It will involve a little leg work.This weeks challenge,should you choose to accept it,goes a little something like this... Remember how cool It was when our moms would come home from shopping and we found items like the following In the grocery bags? Now we get to relive that magical moment!Your mission Is to go out and pick up any cartoon/movie themed food item and review it!Snap pics of  the food contents within.Is it fairly priced?Does It live up to the hype?How well does It represent the characters on the  box?How  does It taste and would you recommend ?   Bloggers who find an item with a premium prize inside will receive a bonus.Heck I might even send them a little something :) Good Luck!!!!
