I am going to tell you something completely against your instincts. Forget the free comics on FCBD. Skip over the 50 cent bins for a few minutes. Ignore the snacks or anything else your local comic shop is offering, and go for the Dorbz! Continue reading “Free Comic Book Day Battle Plan: Funko Dorbz”

Force Friday Star Wars Toys Starting to be loaded on the shelves
Tyson B. from our brother site www.toyboxone.com (calling it a sister site just seems weird) is already out and about hunting for Star Wars toys. He is having luck seeing them “get ready” but not finding anyone who will break the “not before midnight” arrangement. Here is what he is seeing so far.

Marvel Collectors Corp August Unboxing
Thanks to Comicsheatingup.net‘s own Louie M. and Toyboxone.com’s Tyson B. for the Marvel Collector’s Corp unboxing information.
Secret Wars August Box
Despite several past disappointments from Loot Crate and others, I remain a sucker for nerdy mystery boxes. Guess it’s the fun of getting that unknown box in the mail plus it’s fun to divvy up the goods with your kids. Marvel’s marketing focused on being “100% exclusive” and “no fluff”. I went all in with the Founder’s subscription of 6 boxes over 1 year which includes an exclusive bonus anniversary figure that Funko promises to be epic. Continue reading “Marvel Collectors Corp August Unboxing”

Toy Box One new and upcoming toys
Sorry I have been missing lately but its summer and I have been taking vacation. I am trying something new this time around. These things are Hot off the truck, Trending/Top Sellers, and new pre-orders. There are some odd picks but if you do you homework you can see there is some money to be made.

New MASK toys
With word out earlier this year that Matt Trakker would be appearing in GI Joe 3 (movie) and with the 30th anniversary of MASK coming up, it is no surprise that Hasbro would do something with the Mobile Armored Strike Kommand line of toys.

Toyboxone Hot Toy Wrapup
Tyson B. writes for www.comicsheatingup.net as well as his own site www.toyboxone.com
It was a “meh” year for SDCC in my opinion. We knew there would be new Black Series and Hasbro did pull a little shocker with Spider-Gwen. There will also be a Civil War Marvel Legends line coming soon. Here is a list of last weeks top sellers and a few things that are hot off the truck. Continue reading “Toyboxone Hot Toy Wrapup”
Think Outside the Toybox: It’s the 80’s all over again
Tyson B. writes about toys and action figures for Comics Heating Up and his own site Toy Box One
Remember the 80’s?!
We all know that what old is cool again and if it aint retro is sucks. Well the toy market seems to follow suit. Not going back but seems like everything this week was GI Joe or Transformers. And looking at the summer box office one wouldn’t be far off. (Movies are currently early 90’s). Plus it was a light week with everyone celebrating the Independence of this great nation. So let me quit rambling and get on with it. Continue reading “Think Outside the Toybox: It’s the 80’s all over again”

Toyboxone’ guide to new summer toys
Tyson B. writes about hot toys and action figures for www.comicsheatingup.net and his own site www.toyboxone.com.
I took a much-needed vacation last week so forgive me for playing catch up. Before we get serious a quick side note. So we had Bush and Clinton running for the White House, Jurassic World is #1 in theaters and Terminator is out next month. You would think it’s 1992 all over again. There is only one thing missing, Furbys! (Yes, I know they are ’98) That’s right; Furbys are back and in demand just like back in the day. Now add the Internet and they are all kinds of creepy. I didn’t take everyone serious last July when people were telling me to stock up for Holidays. I have kids of my own and we aren’t going to make that mistake twice.

Diamond Select Ant-Man Figure Disney Exclusive
Tyson B. Writes for Comics Heating Up and his own site Toy Box One.
Disney and Marvel just put up their Disney Store exclusive Marvel Select Ant-Man up for pre-order with a July 17th delivery. I’m guessing the removable helmet is what makes the Disney Store exclusive different than the one that has been pre-sold-out for awhile now. Continue reading “Diamond Select Ant-Man Figure Disney Exclusive”

Star Wars Black Series Discontinued Waves
Star Wars Black Series Discontinued Waves.
Our Friend Tyson B. at www.toyboxone.com got word that Star Wars Black Series Waves 2-7 are being discontinued. Some of the figures are already hard to find, I imagine this will make them harder to find.
