GI Joe Classified Jinx and Zarana- Action figure showdown

I’ve done a couple of action figure showdowns…Black Falcon vs. Demistros, Battle Armor He-Man (He-Men?), King vs. King vs. King. And now a version featuring the ladies. I picked up Zarana and Jinx at the Toy Federation in Greer, SC. (Also Studio Series Soundwave, review coming soon). Why these two? My favorite scene from he … Continue reading

SpartanNerd Cabin Fever-Cold Slither Concert Time

See yesterday’s action figure photography post about the snow here. Yeah…I’m going even more koo-koo crazy today…but at least I got out and drove to Walmart…it was dangerous at least on the way there.

Origins Sharella-SpartanNerd Unboxing and Review

Who? I kept getting e-mails from Mattel Creations about this “exclusive” Club Grayskull figure. But then I was like…”Why would I get this? Who even is Sharella?” The story continues. In December I went to some different nerdy stores, and one of them had Sharella for sale to a good cause. (The overpriced-ness caught me … Continue reading
