Funny thing is, I had more Corps than Joes as a kid. This is my original childhood lineup.

This is the one thing I’ve wanted out of Classified since the line began. It is whole. My final request is Astro Viper. Both vanilla and Star Brigade versions please.

Mezco Supercape is great. Fabric, wiring, S material. All top notch.

Fun. Do wish the classes scaled similarly, but they look cool and are fun so I don’t really care that much.

Both 100% fun. I’m becoming a Blokees fan. This one and IronMan have me SUPER excited for Hush Batman and Catwoman. They’re fun toys and scratch that Lego itch at the same time.

Finally got a Scarecrow from the Batman Begins line. I absolutely love the Begins and Superman Returns lines. Even though they’re Mattel, they both seem like the end of the Kenner era.

Finally got around to reading after finding the first two issues while out of town. MAN it’s good. Actually has me interested in other PR teams aside from MMPR. Art and writing top notch, super fun, highly recommend.

Some Kenner BTAS for #VintageToyTuesday. On a Batman kick after the Lego Batmissile. Got the two DUO weirdos super cheap OC local, and finally got a Catwoman while in Myrtle for anniversary. My self restraint w only getting Catwoman was legendary. They had a lot on my list.

Man, this thing was super fun. One of my favorite vehicles. If you ever wanted a Kenner Batmissile in Lego form, this is it. Wholeheartedly recommend.

Got the Batmobile, Batwing, and Batmissile. If Lego does the Batskiboat, I may shit myself.

Pretty nice grabs from our local comic show. Glad to have the purple Joker since GameStop sent me the Kenner colors.

As an unabashed Batmissile superfan, this thing is fun as hell and I’m still kind of shocked we got it. Also love it’s basically a Lego Kenner Returns Batmobile. Scale, function, everything. I’ll post more when I finish it.

Been a hot minute since I did a #VintageToyTuesday. Currently working on the Lego Batmissle and brought this old girl out for comparison. Turns out they’re the exact same size. Also my favorite Batmobile toy. This is mine from 92, played with extensively, and still in really good shape.

I’ve been really digging these not Lego sets from Zuru. The piece count, quality, and price is really good. And they’re fun. Makes a pretty fun little “retro” Lego shelf.

Finally going through Doom The Dark Ages and having a blast. I loved 2016 and Eternal, and Dark Ages is just as fun. I love the shield. The parry, melee, shoot combo is satisfying AF. Super fun and highly recommended.

As apprehensive as I originally was, GD these are fun. The most “Ninja Turtle” the Ninja Turtle toys have felt in a while. I’ll always love Playmates and fucking hate they’re losing the license, but this is a high note to go out on.

Good couple days for nerd shit. Prob only S7 o-ring I’ll get, but he’s a doozy. After this, I need Hasbro to chill w the Ecto Glow. I’ve loved it, but I think we’re good now. And I love cheap Power Rangers toys.

So. Fun set! Especially for only $30. Biggest gripe is the arm bands. They used the existing molds for each. So Green has molded bands and the other two are painted. Why not just swap the upper arms and have old Green on Black and Red, and unbranded on Green? Did fix some helmet deco though.

Haven’t had a PSP in like 5 yrs, but if I find Ghostbusters on video I’m buying it. And found Party Reptile Leo complete in *really good shape for $20! Antique market day was good.

Already at $150k, I don’t think it’ll have a problem funding.

Never had any Zords as a kid, just a few auto morphers and a branded Super Soaker. These things are super fun. Actually kicked me into getting the “old” Bandai ones off eBay.

Fun. I maintain Playmates is the best *toy* company around. I think a lot of folks have forgotten what toys actually are.

As janky as they are, I think these are fun. Fun toys for $11. Could they be better? Absolutely. But I’m 41 and buy toys for dopamine hits so I don’t really care.

If Mattel keeps up with this I’ll get a lot more. One brick had mold bleed and that was it. Really fun, high quality build. Looks great assembled, really impressed. I’ll pick up more Brick Shop.

Congratulations. It’s a potato. @bertmanning.bsky.social · 02/08/2026
Only Mega Bocks I ever messed w were the Halo ones, but first Brick Shop set already feels like a step up in quality. Much closer to LEGO, which I’m sure was not a factor at all. This is completely different.

I don’t think I’ve ever felt more affirmation than this scene in King of the Hill.
