I’m going to be straight up honest. I don’t have any interest in Wresting, at all. But I think Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, the actor, is pretty cool. Plus this figure has a lot of hilarious faces and possibilities for photos. I also ended up getting a good deal on him from the closing of Toys R Us, so there’s also that nice bonus. As far as Figuarts go, he kind of feels like a mixed bag. The face sculpts are great. They look like the rock and convey a […]

It is however the third game I played through. I started it […]
As sort of a last hurrah for the Michal Bay Transformers series, which is effectively done, Hasbro has been doing a sort of “greatest hits” line themed around the movies called Studio Series. It’s not a bunch of re-releases though, it’s new molds of most of the figures, with an emphasis on Robot Mode Scale.
