Review: Funko T800 Endoskeleton (Chrome) ReAction Figure


Funko T800 Endoskeleton (Chrome) ReAction FigureWhen it came to Terminator in this style I was pretty happy - the Alien figures were good and with Kenner's original Terminator 2 line over 20 years ago, it seemed that a good T800 Endoskeleton (Chrome) would be pretty easy to pull off.

Review: Funko Back to the Future Biff Tannen ReAction Figure

Review: Bif Bang Pow! The Twilight Zone Talky Tina


Bif Bang Pow! The Twilight Zone Talky Tina Action FigureA few years ago, back before Comic-Con in San Diego became Nerd Prom and the Hollywood South Marketing Bonanza, I got to see June Foray in a panel. She voiced Talky Tina as well as Witch Hazel, Rocket J. Squirrel, Magica de Spell, Natasha Fatale (of Boris and... fame), plus Granny and countless others. It was pretty awesome - and we also got to find out how many other actress' voices she dubbed, uncredited, over the years.
