Yesterday was March 10, which is often celebrated as "MAR10 Day" by fans of Nintendo's block-hopping hero. Despite the fun date, there was very little offered in the way of new announcements regarding the plumber and his pals, save for this...

Did you ever have one of those old Tiger Electronics LCD handheld games? I did! I don't know where it came from (a garage sale?), or where it went (another garage sale?), but I had the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 LCD game. It's something I haven't...

This weekend saw Wonder Festival 2020 take place in Japan, with multiple memorabilia manufacturers in attendance up to show off their incoming products, all vying for the hard-earned cash of collectors everywhere. Leading the charge this ye...

If I wanted to get a Death Stranding figure, I'd fork over way too much money for the Jumbo Ludens. That thing is a beast! But Good Smile Company also has a more traditional Nendoroid coming later this year for the game's stoic protagonist ...

We're currently going through the Delay-Apocalypse right now: well, what about the amiibo-Apocalypse? Today, the Dark Samus and Richter amiibo arrived, following a decent amount of up and down pre-order stock opportunities (currently, they ...

It's safe to say that amiibo are very much a "hate it or love it" affair. You probably gave up in 2015. I don't blame you! But for those of you who are still faithful, I know your inner pain and outer joy. There's still plenty of amiibo to ...

Smash Ultimate is kicking off 2020 right with its Melee tournament, and now that this past weekend is over and done with, it's time for the new hotness. This weekend Nintendo is getting even wackier, taking the focus off of player...

Bandai has released images of a run of ridiculously cute figurines of characters from the recent Pokémon Sword and Shield releases. The chibi models (first spotted by @pokejungle) are part of the company's upcoming Pok&eacu...

Back when I was a lad, you couldn't release a popular movie adaptation without swamping high street shelves with branded tie-in items. Toys, clothes, trading cards, board games, pregnancy kits, (well, maybe not the last one), but whether it...

Two months ago I pondered if amiibo collectors were still trying to go after every Smash line figure and got a pretty explosive response. I aimed small. Now we're looking at the whole shebang. Responses for the Smash question...

Five years ago today, the "Holy Trinity" was born. I waltzed into a Toys "R" Us assuming that I could pick up every figure on offer, and boy was I met with the fury of a thousand suns and a hundred shoppers scorned. The Wii Fit, Villager an...

In today's contest, we're giving away some Funkoverse board games featuring Batman, Harry Potter, and Rick and Morty characters! Remember board games? They're the best. My fiance and I spent a couple of heated hours going at it at Sorry! ov...

Pokemon Sword and Shield just recently launched on Switch, and although many are lamenting the loss of some of their favorite creatures, a lot of them are celebrating the arrival of new ones.  Eldegoss is one of my new favorites, Yampe...

Roll call for amiibo! Although these wretched toys are slowing down considerably in terms of buzz and sales, there's still a lot of amiibo coming on the horizon. Long term we still need pretty much every DLC character, and there's some hole...

Funko: you love to hate it. Although there are Funko figures for pretty much everything (I wanted to prove this point by picking a person completely at random and seeing if there was a Funko for it, but it turns out there is not a Carl...

We've got a Blu-ray copy of Toy Story 4 to give out, so come win it! Toy Story 3 made me cry. Legit. It's really good. But since I don't like crying at movies, I decided I was going to skip any more entries in the series lest I wind up bein...

When I think of the cutesy vinyl figurines that are Nendoroids, I think of games such as The Legend of Zelda, Overwatch, Persona, and other colourful titles full of smiling, fun-loving characters. So it's with a little surprise that I bring...

I honor and curse amiibo a few times each year, and with 2019 winding down I figured it was a good time to check in with the doomed little toys. As a reminder, we've been keeping a running list of every amiibo figure since June of 2015. As ...

I still can't believe there are 28 forms of Unown not only in Pokémon but also in real life, as officially licensed plush toys. I marveled at that fact earlier this year when the Pokémon Center in Japan started taking pre-orde...
