Post-Xmas Clearance Toys (Pt 1)
Thrifty collectors know that the best time to buy toys isn't during the holiday season -- it's after it. Check out Wes's really cheap toy purchases (with brief reviews) in the first part of Post-Xmas 2011 Clearance Purchases! (1/27/12)
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)
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)
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)
What does today's review item have in common with a Michael Jackson Thriller record? Both have a Halloween theme... and they're both made of vinyl! Read on for a look at one of Creatology's vinyl decorating toys. (9/15/11)
Unlike t-shirt makers, toy companies have only recently moved to cash in on geek nostalgia -- and Monte wants to encourage them! In this guest article, he points out ten properties ripe for an action figure resurrection. (4/6/11)
Sounds like a nerdy Wheel of Fortune solution, doesn't it? Anyway, in this figure review, we take a look at Star Wars Transformers Crossovers Ahsoka Tano. Drift might have cool swords, but Ahsoka gets lightsabers. (11/5/10)
New 6" action figures are pretty rare these days, but that hasn't stopped Lanard Toys from debuting a new martial arts-themed toyline: Dragon-Do! In this piece, we review Eclipse: the line's obligatory ninja warrior. (10/26/10)
S.T.O.P. Vs. S.C.U.M. 3.75" Figures!
In the future, war will rage through the streets... but you can bring that battle home today with the 3.75" S.T.O.P. Vs. S.C.U.M. action figures! And they're only a dollar?! It sounds too good to be true... and maybe it is. (9/7/10)
Alice Cullen is one hot dead girl.
We're not big on the Twilight series here at Scary-Crayon, but we always appreciate a sexy goth girl in miniature! And while the media that spawned her sucks, the New Moon Alice Cullen is an attractive figure indeed. (1/21/10)
We don't typically go for girls' dolls, but the Juku Couture Audrina doll might just change that! With stylish clothes and articulation to rival most action figures, Audrina is far more entertaining than your average boy toy. (1/14/10)
Even so, the horns aren't the most striking feature of the Full Throttle Triceratops Ranger -- it's his wicked stylish jacket. Even without decent articulation, cool accessories, and a great price, this figure would be cool. (12/6/09)
Rude, cruel, and needlessly violent, the sixth Doctor was easily the most loathsome of the character's incarnations. As such, it's almost fitting that the exclusive sixth Doctor regeneration figure is so disappointing. (11/18/09)
We've been praising Power Rangers toys for over a year, but figures were largely absent from the site... until today! After reading our review of Throttle Max Ranger Gold, you too might become a Power Rangers fan. (11/10/09)
In February 2008, we reviewed the Madballs Series 2 Wolf Breath -- along with the other 'balls in the series -- in an advance review. We didn't like him. But now that the toys are finally on shelves, our tune has changed! (11/2/09)
On the other hand, maybe he's not all that evil! Admittedly, we at Scary-Crayon have very little information about the true personality of the Buzzsaw Samurai. We do, however, have a review of the Jazwares action figure! (10/26/09)
Retro flavor abounds in our review of the new third Doctor and Dalek 2-pack! These overpriced figures aren't perfect, but the target audience will eat them up... and perhaps get a mouthful of grease in the process. (10/19/09)
When we think of Guile, three words immediately spring to mind: DISCIPLINE, JUSTICE, COMMITMENT! Yet while NECA's SFIV Guile lacks that goofy charm (not to mention useful accessories), it's still a great figure. (10/12/09)
