Mattel showed off its new DC figures including a bunch of Absolute Universe characters

They look so good 😭🙏 #mattel https://t.co/SWZjtHIaIj

I believe Bane is the first series build-a-figure. Hopefully they'll really push Hasbro to compete. (And I vote for series three to be all Absolute Wonder Woman characters with Giganta as the build-a-figure)

Some good Pikachus

Another good Godzilla figure

この度T-BASEさんからお声掛けいただき友人のKagemaru Designsさんが原型を担当したゴジラを塗らせていただきました！
長年一緒に走り抜けてきたKagemaru先生と公式のゴジラのフィギュアでコラボ出来る日が来るとは思いませんでした。

Plush rat warrior

I have just discovered his sword can be removed from the sheath and it is made of metal and quite heavy. Bestie I’m going to be honest with you. I would die for this brave and rather haggard looking rat

My favorite toys 2025

I meant to post this sooner, but have ended up on a long-trial jury and have a schedule even more chaotic than usual. I got a few fancier toys this year that were disappointing because of fragility or limited articulation, but these were all a lot of fun (mostly nostalgia characters, but that's because my favorite newer characters haven't received figures at all):

G.I. Joe ReAction+ Pythona (BBTS, EE, Amazon)

G.I. Joe ReAction+Cobra-La Royal Guard (BBTS, EE, Amazon)

G.I. Joe ReAction+ Fatal Fluffy (BBTS, EE, Amazon)

G.I. Joe Classified Snake Eyes and Polar Bear (BBTS, EE, Amazon)

Star Wars: The Black Series Sebulba (BBTS, EE, Amazon)

Star Wars: The Vintage Collection Crosshair (BBTS, EE, Amazon)

Star Wars: The Vintage Collection Sabine Wren and Howler (BBTS, EE, Amazon)

What We Do in the Shadows Toony Terrors Guillermo (BBTS, EE, Amazon)

Transformers Action Edition Megatron (BBTS, EE, Amazon)

Scooby-Doo The Creeper (BBTS, EE, Amazon)


(Honorable mention for some figures I didn't pick up: Hasbro Pulse Sentinel and Super Skull, 6inchplus Gladiator Hulk, Tubular Tortoise Mutant Karate Warriors, Finegures LPZZ Arkham Knight Deathstroke)
