For the record, Wes supports marriage equality. He's unlikely to vote for Rick Santorum, or any candidate who panders to the religious right on the issue. Even so, the issue isn't THAT important to him... (1/31/12)

Fantasy Land -- sounds like a place everyone would want to visit, doesn't it? Alas, as we learn in this Scary-Crayon coloring book review, you'd do well to steer clear of the land these horrific hooved clones call home. (1/25/12)
If you've never heard of Cutsie Pets, you're not alone -- apparently Google's never heard of the line either! For better or worse, we're here to change that with a review of the Cutsie Pets Glam Gal & Pup set. (1/16/12)
A Dusty Plastic HELLside Xmas!
'Tis the season day (or one of them) -- and, in Dusty Plastic HELLside #XM2011 (get it?) we mark the occasion with a goofy reinterpreted nativity scene and a couple of holiday cards. Best wishes to you and yours. (12/25/11)

Dinosaur toys are a dime a dozen... okay, more like $12 a dozen, but still. Rarer, however, are articulated dinosaur figures. Terroar of Mattel's Xtractaurs line is an exception -- but is it a good toy? Read on to find out. (12/10/11)
In Dusty Plastic HELLside #29, Wes learns a valuable life lesson! Or maybe it's not all that valuable -- it's certainly not (necessarily) deep -- but it's probably good to keep in mind! And the messenger is pretty awesome. (12/5/11)
More pony stuff in Dusty Plastic HELLside #28, which guest stars artist Kevin Bolk! As a hoofed monstrosity with a swishy tail and a mane, no less. And there's also... ugh, just click through and see for yourself. (12/2/11)
Enter: The Pony Tails Collection!
With the popular "Friendship Is Magic" cartoon behind it, My Little Pony toys are making quite the comeback -- but Hasbro's ponies aren't the only fillies in town! Lanard's Pony Tails Collection toys are adorable, too. (11/29/11)

Job security isn't terribly great for action figures. With new versions of characters constantly being released, there's always a danger of being replaced in a given collection! So it goes in Dusty Plastic HELLside #26... (8/5/11)
When vampires blood-drinking zombies overrun the USA, things don't go too well for society! Stake Land is the story of Mister and Martin's journey through the dangerous world that remains. It's surprisingly decent. (8/2/11)
Our clever canine pal is BACK in Dusty Plastic HELLside #25! In this installment, Wes and that discerning dog Bacardi discuss the warning invariably stated in every erectile dysfunction drug advertisement ever. (7/15/11)

The unstoppable Juggernaut is back and spoiling for a fight in Dusty Plastic HELLside #23! I don't care who he's facing -- I pity the fool standing opposite this behemoth's mighty crimson-banded fists. (4/15/11)
