I remember the Knight and the Dwarf, but I don't remember anything else in that line because I never had any of them, even though I thought they were cool. That Hook Horror looks like something that I would not want to run into in a dungeon.

I didn't know that those I had were from any line in particular. I remember they were given to me as gifts. And being from south Texas I assumed they were some Mexico knock-offs. I loved them though. Even then I was into fantasy. I didn't know how much until my third grade teacher showed us The Hobbit. It was all over after that.

Looks like they'll be cranking out Avengers figures this year:

Is it just me, or is the best looking 3 3/4" Hulk they've put out? Sorry, can't find pic to embed...it's the one between Red Skull and Falcon.

Yea that hulk looks really good. I'd prefer if Hawkeye and Thor had something more like the earth's Mighteous heroes costumes tho

Gi Joe cosplayers. Looks like fun and they do it for charities. Some pretty good costumes in there too.

A buddy of mine posted this over at Facebook. He's been in a movie theater since noon watching all the Die Hards back to back, with the new one at the end. This video is great!

A Battlestar Galactica book based in the original continuity?

Am I the only one out here at least somewhat interested in seeing this? I have to admit, Dynamite's not done much that I've gotten into, however I really have a soft spot for this show.

Abnett is writing it? I meet him once years ago when I was still working for Games Workshop. I wish he'd finish off his Gaunts Ghosts series before he did anything else though

If you liked "The War that Time Forgot" in GI Combat, this book looks like it'll be for you:

For those of you that give a crap about Robotech, Palladium Books is going to be doing a kickstarter for a new Robotech miniature game. They're doing in in conjunction with Cipher Studios and Soda Pop Miniatures. I don't really have any interest in playing the game itself but I'm sure I'll buy the hell out of the mini's they'll produce. For any new Robotech product I'm all over it.

Linky to the blurb about it on Palladium's website

Also, Palladium was responsible for the old TMNT rpg that was awesome back in the 80's and 90's as well as games like Rifts and the old/new Robotech rpg.
