"Get in gear" takes on new meaning as Eka Darville -- the RPM Red Ranger -- assumes the role of a gay slave in "Spartacus: Blood and Sand." Beware of spoilers: his fate is revealed in Dusty Plastic HELLside #14. (3/9/10)
Watch out: Miss Sarah Jane Smith is back again and on the prowl! Is she searching for blue police boxes? Busting alien scum? Or engaging in acts decidedly less heroic? Fnd out in Dusty Plastic HELLside #13! (2/19/10)
There are a lot of great, instructive children's stories -- but The Little Rabbit Who Wanted Red Wings is not one of them. In this summary review, Wes points out just what's wrong with this tale... and offers a new ending. (1/31/10)
For the honor of Grayskull, she is She-Ra! Well, she's still Adora in this comic, but that's beside the point. In Dusty Plastic HELLside #12, the Princess of Power finds herself faced with the Strongest Woman in the World. (1/31/10)
SAY IT AIN'T SO, SARAH JANE!!!
Her younger days were full of funky fashion fun, but Sarah Jane's found a common look in her old age. In the Sarah Jane Smith Fashionista Fever! finale, Mickey Glitter gives us one last tour of Miss Smith's wardrobe. (1/25/10)
Once again, Scary-Crayon returns to the forgotten days of DOS gaming for a look at the "classic" fighting game Body Blows. Alas, "classic" is in quotation marks because this game -- despite its strengths -- is pretty bad. (1/25/10)
In this summary review of the "Wuzzles" episode "In the Money", we see how wealth can transform a likeable guy into a total jerk. We also see how disturbingly messed up the land of Wuz and its inhabitants are. (1/25/10)
Look out! Those menacing Triceratons are back in Dusty Plastic HELLside #11, but this time their target isn't the Federation or the Ninja Turtles. No, today they've set their sights on someone far more stylish. (1/25/10)
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)
Street Fighter characters just keep popping up in these strips, don't they? In Dusty Plastic HELLside #10, Sakura prepares to receive special training from Flint -- but given the circumstances, he'd better teach quickly! (10/12/09)
