About Me
Hi, I'm Anthony. I enjoy anything that is remotely nerdy. Comics,anime,videogames obviously and collecting action figures (mainly Marvel Legends.) I enjoy all types of games from RPG to Action. I guess the best way to show you my tastes is to give you a top 10 list.

1. Disgaea:Hour of Darkness
2. Okami
3. God Hand
4. Guilty Gear XX: Accent Core
5. Kingdom Hearts 2
6. Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask,
7. Final Fantasy VI
8. Chrono Trigger
9. Metal Gear Solid
10.Guitar Hero II

I own no next-gen systems. Currently I own a Dreamcast (Pirating FTW), a Gamecube and a Ps2. Hopefully for Christmas I will get a DS.

I also visit a lot of message boards usually under the name of MetaRidleyX the board I most frequent is Board 8 (The Contest Board) on GameFAQs.


I'm currently:

playing: God Hand, Prince of Persia: The Sands of time

reading: Pyramids by Terry Pratchett and Memories of Ice by Steven Erikson.

Watching (anime-wise): Lucky Star, Samurai Champloo, Mushishi

Watching (TV-wise): Pushing Daisies, Scrubs, Heroes, Mythbusters and House. (Curse you WGA strike)

Stuck in a Toybox #2: 8-bit Simon Belmont
Meta-Ridley | 8:32 AM on 01.13.2008 9 comments


I just got this in the mail from chad winning that quiz so I figured I would give it a review since I really haven't done anything here in about a week or so.



Now this figure was only sold at San Diego Comic-con which makes it somewhat rare and goes for about $20 on amazon. The main flaw this figure is that it isn't a figure at all. It's essentially a immovable block. It does not move, has no accessories, nothing. The cool thing about it is that it's completely 3-D 8-bit figure based off sprites of Simon running from the first Castlevania game.


Ain't nothin goin to break his stride!

The designers or whatever you want to call them also detailed the front and back of this figure.



The other good thing about this figure is the packaging.


Which is a recreation of the first stage of the game. (The box says Stage 3 but they are wrong.)

The last thing I want to mention is the size of this figure which is really, really small.


Apocalypse could use Simon as a kick-ball.

This figure can fit in your pocket, or anywhere honestly. It's not like your going to have to make any shelf-space for this.


I HAVE THE POWER!

This is not a figure, this a 8-bit 3-d block of a Castlevania character. Despite the good things about it this is not a figure you should buy unless your a castlevania nut but even then there are better action figures out there
that are much more worth your time and money.

I hope you enjoyed and I promise I would make another review as soon as time allows.

I'm not ungrateful I just thought it was going to be something better then it was. (No Offense to Chad and Company) This figure you should only buy if your a die-hard castlevania fan or collector that's why the packaging.is so good.
