Review – Marvel Legends – Abomination Wave – Scarlet Witch

As much as I like that Hasbro keeps putting out these C and D tier characters in their line ups, sometimes it feels like they go a little overboard and overlook some of the more obvious and popular characters, especially when it comes to their MCU line up.  I am sure the die hard comic fans hate to accept it sometimes, but the movies really feel like they are driving Marvel these days. Thankfully, they didn't wait too long to fill in the Scarlet Witch hole in the current Avengers line up.  Not like they did for, you know, Falcon,…

Review – Movie – xXx (2002)

Around the same era that Vin Diesel started making his mark as a tough guy Street Racer in The Fast and the Furious, he starred in a similar movie called xXx, or Triple X.  It's similar in that Vin Diesel plays the same sort of underground tough guy bad ass character and both films are sort of designed for the X-treme audience.  xXx take this whole concept to the X-treme level though. Aside from general tone and Vin Diesel's character, xXx and Fast and the Furious don't share a whole lot else in common.  At it's core, xXx is essentially…

Review – Transformers – Titans Return – Chromedome

Wave 2 of the Titans Returns line wraps up the redesigned versions of the original 7 Headmasters from G1.  Today's review is for Titans Return Chromedome with Stylor.  There haven't been a whole lot of easy to get options for an updated Chromedome since the original Generation One release.  There was a repaint of Transformers Prime Wheeljack for the Collectors Club, and at least one 3rd Party figure in Fansproject CODE.  He's a fairly popular character in the IDW comics but he is admittedly kind of a bland design with all of his squareishness and brown shades.  It's understandable that…

Figma – A Link Between Worlds Link (DX version)

The Legend of Zelda has kind of a crazy continuity, or more, a crazy lack of continuity.  Despite there being many many Zelda title in the series, more or less all about Link fetching the Triforce to save Hyrule, there are few that are direct sequels or even that take place in the same world.  Link has had many different designs over the years.  Generically, he's kind of an elf looking person in a green tunic.  Sometimes he's an adult, sometimes he's a child, sometimes he's somewhere in between.  This version of Link is based on his appearance in the…

Review – Battlefield 1 (PC, PS4, Xbox One)

2016 - EA DICE - Single Player/ Online Mutiplayer The Good Visuals are top notch and dense World evolves and changes as the battle continues Massive miltiplayer battles that really feel like a war. The Bad Dense visuals can be extremely confusing most of the time Leveling process is extremely slow Price (Game, Micro Transactions, DLC, etc) Note, I generally try to use my own screen shots but despite my best efforts with several tools, I couldn't get this game to TAKE screen shots.  Chock that into the negatives if you want.  These shots are pretty indicative of what things…
