Today we open a Goldberg. Goldberg gets the Ram Man Gimmick. Not a bad fit considering his finisher. The armor straps on with pegs in the back of the armor to hold it together. It is easy to remove. The helmet was a bit misshapen but with him wearing it i expect it will work itself out. I think my Goldberg figure might be a but cross eyed. You can expect the usual articulation from this line. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we assemble an "Intelligent Vehicle Robot". This little Fuchikoma set is very well done. The instructions are not perfect but I got through the build. Maybe it has already been done in other legit or bootleg sets but the use of the mini figure helmets was very clever. I am very happy with the build and design. The bricks are excellent quality and snap together solid. I picked up this set on Temu for $9. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open an AI plush. I found this plush on Japanese Mercari and ordered it through Buyee.jp. The plush is nice and soft with dangly legs. She sits up fine. The eyes are embroidered not vinyl. The hair is actually sewn together giving it more thickness than most plush with cut hair. I am very pleased with this AI plush. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open a Inami statue. In a rare moment of not punching the nearest male Inami is in uniform holding the Wagnaria menu. This prize statue is a bit shiny but does not look bad for the usual UFO claw machine prizes. The base was easy to attach and the menu fits in snug. It was more difficult to pull the plastic tray from the box. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

I stopped by an estate sale and found some treasure. There were a lot of hotwheels new on the cards but I just picked up the three with Floppy discs in them. There were a few comic book price guides and lots of books about antique and collectibles. There were transformers from various eras. I picked up the green Acid Storm jet and I just recently opened the Thunder Cracker version that uses the same body. I also picked up a Soundwave Mp3 Player. I have Mario Land for the original Game boy now too. The first tin of yugioh seemed legit but the second tin was mostly fake cards. There was a lot to look at and some stuff I should have grabbed but I am pretty happy with what I got.

Today we open a Cobra. This Cobra trooper comes with four accessories. There is the obvious rifle and knife and then you have his removable chest rig and helmet. The helmet stays on fairly well. I think I would have preferred a permanent helmet but it is fine. The chest rig is rubbery material. There is a hole and peg under the front silver buckle. The knife can be slipped in to the clips his right leg. The articulation on this figure is better than the classic 80s figures but not by all that much. The head moves side to side but there is not much range at all up and down. The shoulders are a hinged swivel. The elbow has another swivel hinge and the wrist is a swivel. The chest has a break and appears to be on a ball joint. Turning is no problem but the up and down or forward and back range is limited. At the hips you have the classic articulation without the O-ring and open crotch. The knees are double hinged and finally the feet have a hing and peg in to the ankle allowing them to swivel side to side. I think the cobra symbol on the chest could have been a bit larger on this figure but it is well printed. I would have preferred the original O-Ring figures in this packaging but these updated figures are not bad. They are certainly a step above the similar size Marvel Universe figures. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open a Spider-Woman. Her costume is much more shiny than I recall it being in the comics. She comes with both a masked and an unmasked face. There is a spot under the base where you can store the face not being used. The foot pegs fit nice and tight in to the base. It is probably best to remove her head to push her in to the base to avoid damaging her hair. I like the spider web base. To replace the face you need to remove the head. The front hair part fits on the the shoulder fairly tight so you might be able to remove it with the head attached but you wont be able to get it back on without removing the head. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching.

Today we open a Man-At-Arms. The bubble on the package has some cool Snake Men themed serpent scales on it. I almost hate to open it but where is the fun in that? Serpent Claw Man-At-Arms comes with his usual chest armor and mace except gray. Then some armor parts for his right arm and right leg. His head seemed very loose. Much looser than i recall the earlier figures being. The Serpent Claw slips on to his left hand easily and looks great. It would easily work as a grappling hook with some string attached. If the shin armor seems loose slide it down against the top of his boot. His shin is a bit thicker above the boot and the armor stays in place very well down there. If you wedge the orange armor on the arm under the silver shoulder armor it keeps both pieces together as well. I really like this figure a lot. I want to get snake mountain from this line. I hope I can pick it up somewhere before it is sold out. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open and assemble a Keeppley Ran. This is the first Keeppley block set I have assembled. I am very pleased with the quality of the blocks, the instructions and the final result. All parts were present and there were a few left over pieces. The figure itself looks much nicer than I expected even though it is clearly pictured on the box. The pieces with printing on them are quality. I have the other three from this set and I am looking forward to putting them together. There are several more Conan sets from Keeppley. I plan to pick those up as well when I am able. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we unbox a Soldier machine white shark. The conversion steps are on the back of the card. It is a fairly simple process though I did make a mistake. I did not catch it while I was recording but the head is on a platform that you need to slide up to the top of the shark head and then down inside the head when converting back to shark. Overall this is a nice figure for what it is. The plastic is not really thin and cheap like many figures of this type. The articulation is poor but the robot mode and shark mode both look good. The gun included is pretty nice too. I am going to see if I can find the rest of these. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open some bootleg cards. I picked up this box on temu for $12.00. The cards are nicely printed and the card stock is nice and thick. The cards from the various rare sets all look pretty good. Unfortunately the reflective holo paper they put on top of the common cards is pretty scuffed up. Most of the art is not official but none of it looks terrible. I expect a lot of this art was downloaded and cropped to make these sets. I can enjoy it for what it is and I had fun opening the packs. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open some random blind egg ball crystal things. The Jurassic park dinosaurs still seem a bit pricey even on clearance for $4. They are easy to assemble and look alright. Maybe they are just a little too small. I always enjoy the Mini brands stuff when I find something I can use with the fumos. The sonic prime capsule was the only one I could find in the store or I would have done a video on a set of those. I will keep looking. Finally we revisit Dinostrike. I got a pterodactyl with armor and guns so I am pleased. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching! Take it easy.

Today we open a Mutagen Man. This figure has very limited articulation. There are swivel ball joints in the shoulders and hips. The hands can be twisted at the wrist as well. The lid on the jar can be turned and opened at the top. The organs are attached to the lid and can be lifted out of the jar. The box mentions oozing hands. I am not sure if there is a way to put slime in the hands. Maybe the hands pop off? I will look in to it. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open a Mega Man. I have been looking forward to getting Jada toys first wave of Mega Man figures in my hands for some time now. I think I ordered my cases back in march of 2023. The box design has a nice big window so you can see Mega and all of his accessories inside. The box is wide enough to stand on its own or you can hang it from a plastic hanger on the top of the box. Out of the box Mega Man stands 4.5 inches tall. Mega comes with his Mega Buster, Two default fist hands, two open hands, an angry face/head, a blaster effect and a stand for the effect. At first I thought the paint was applied unevenly but it seems the paint is meant to be lighter in some areas like a faux light reflection. The shading in the paint does not look bad but it is very noticeable. There are a few spots of flicked or fallen paint on the figure. My Mega's, Mega Buster has some yellow paint near the elbow joint. Aside from a few specks the paint mostly stays within the lines though. Mold lines are visible on painted and unpainted parts of the figure. The mold lines are pretty well cut down though, maybe a little too cut down in a few spots. There are no large flakes left on the figure. Mega has lots of hinges and swivels giving him great articulation. This is the first figure I have handled in person from Jada toys. I would really like a classic Samus from Jada toys after opening Mega Man. For the price this is a great figure. Double the price and I think it is still work it. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open a Teela. I like these Retro play MOTU figures. Overall this is a good figure. The hip joints seem a little off to me. It was difficult to move her thighs. Her left shin part of the leg was backwards. I did not notice until I was checking the articulation. Luckily I noticed before I bent it too far. Teela comes with her snake staff, snake armor and a shield. The snake armor is easy to remove and replace. The accessories and figure are made from rubbery material. This Teela has the thicker no knee legs. I will have to see if i can find a sorceress to swap out her legs. These chunky no knee legs are nowhere near as nice as the newer legs. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open a Link plush. Link has lots of details on his costume. Straps, a shield, a sword and pointy elf ears. His legs are a soft material so they dangle if you hold him up and bend easily when you sit him down. The best part is the eyes are embroidered. I am always glad when there are not a bunch of vinyl details that will eventually peel off. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open and assemble a Ferret. I was really looking forward to this line of G.I. JOE construction sets. The box art looks great and they display well in the box. Opening the box is a mistake. The assembly instructions were easy to follow. Unfortunately the parts are poorly molded. The plastic is very light and has some over mold and snapped gates from the runners left on. Some parts fit together ok others are loose and fall right off. The rubber tires slip on fairly easy but even the tires have extra material that needs to be cut off. There is a nice sticker sheet but you only have the box as a reference to show where the stickers go. The figure is pretty bad as well. You might be able to salvage the chest piece and head to put on a better mini figure. The head was very tight on the neck and the legs do not move freely. There is no contest when you compare this set to any of the KRE-O sets from a few years ago. The sad part about this set is all of the parts aside from the rubber tires are standard pieces you could purchase from lego to assemble the same exact vehicle. If I had thought about it at the time I would have saved the sticker sheet and done that. This set is made by "Forever Clever" and licensed by Hasbro. If you want some good G.I. Joe bricks grab those G.I. JOE KRE-O sets while they are still fairly cheap. Stay far away from "Forever Clever" blocks unless you just want the nice box art to display. This was a very disappointing block set. The boot-legos I have been buying from Temu and Aliexpress are better than this licensed set. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open a mug. I purchased this mug on Amiami. The printing on the mug is well done. The artwork is great. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we release a dinosaur. These playsets are messy but fun. After we release the Dino we use the knife to do a little surgery and remove his guts. Inside of the golden slime we found the Dino rider in a couple of pieces. After cleaning up a bit we pull the Dino's tail and the treasure drops out. We got a "Real gold dipped treasure" nugget thing. I think the monster set had a gold dipped arm in it so this is probably the second "Gold dipped treasure" from this line. I doubt the gold item has any value but the process is the fun. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open an Ice Man. Ice Man comes with an extra set of open hands, a second angry head an ice effect and a stand for the effect. The articulation is great on this figure. Lots of hinges and swivels allowing for some nice posing. It looks like the feet will be shared by all of the figures in this line. Reused feet are not a problem at all for this line just an observation. The feet are chunky and well articulated. Jada is doing great things with this line. I can not wait to see more. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open a Fang boat. While I did not care for the Retaliation movie I am always interested in 3 3/4 JOE vehicles. This vehicle is pretty nice. Copperhead would fit right in on this boat. The "Swamp Viper" figure included in this box is pretty awful. The design itself is fine but the articulation is more like a five point vintage Star Wars figure. At least the figure does fit in to the drivers seat. I had to reapply one sticker but the decal came loose from the sticker part. That was unfortunate. I managed to use some tacky glue to restick the decal to the sticker part. It is staying on fine. You can pick these up pretty cheap if you are interested. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open some LED blocks compatible with most building block sets. These fit together well and they are nice and bright. I have a few sets that I think these will work with but nothing assembled and ready to test them with at the moment. We have a large variety of blinking, slow transition and solid lights. A flickering candle like version would have been nice. I did not see anyone selling one specific color. I am sure I can find a use for everything in this variety pack though. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open an Ibuki. I am almost out of street fighters now. This statue keeps up the koto bishoujo quality. There was a long hair piece to plug in to the head. The plug piece fit in tight and is nice and secure. As usual with this line there are two circular logo pieces for the stand. Who is your favorite Street Fighter? I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.

Today we open MR. T. MR. T comes with a T belt, Gold chains, multiple hands including a left and right pointing hand. A fist with rings and an open hand with rings. The cloths can be removed to reveal hogan colors. The cloths have velcro along the back of the shirt and the pants. They were fairly easy to take off and put back on. His left wrist cuff is split so it can be removed without removing his hand while his right wrist cuff is a solid piece. The likeness in the face is fairly well done. The articulation is what we usually get out of these figures. His shin swivels are much tighter than most of the rest of the figures in this line that I have opened. I missed out on the WWE Eternia MR. T. I was very pleased to receive this figure for Christmas 2023. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching. Take it easy.
