Today’s travel buddy: Super7 Reaction Merman, released in blind boxes in 2019. Picked up at the Stormville Airport Flea Market earlier this month. No sword, sadly.

When I am stressed, I am able to drive my office chair around and stare at this for a while to calm myself down a bit.

Can anyone explain why the app for my oven is notifying me about entertainment and live channels? @larchuk.bsky.social

Picked up these awesome Italian Fratelli Restuccia Strike Fighters 80s MOTU knockoffs as part of a toy collection today. I’ve barely ever heard or seen these guys before and now need the other three

Picked up a DC Super Powers collection along with a custom Cheetah and some Toy Biz and Mattel for a lil flavor. Am I slightly obsessed with mail away exclusives? Yes I am and I love that Clark Kent.

Pickups from Collector’s Universe. My first peach-cheeked, half boot Skeletor! The Los Amos Trap Jaw, my first MOTU Staction, a complete green belt Merman, I think my first 200X figure, and CHECK OUT THAT TURTLE LOT! #tmnt #actionfigures #motu

Recent pickups. I think I bought an entire collection of Masters of the Universe figures solely for the one Scare Glow? Worth it? Yes!

These Eternia Minis are so fun. The recent Clawful listing find in the Chronicles line has me excited.

Recent yard sale pickups. Those walkie talkies work and I’m trying to find applications for them.

When I go to NYCC, I like to see if I can hold a copy of Amazing Fantasy 15 in my hands (in a case, I’m not insane). Seeing a Laser Power He-Man at a toy show evoked the same thing from me.

I get kinda excited when I find a nice Masters of the Universe figure that needs a leg band replacement. I’ve been saving up a bunch of em, and this Mosquitor that I found over the weekend at a flea market gets added to the list. He can kinda stand on his own, but would benefit from being fixed up.

Oh my god, I’ve already written 1,200 words about this action figure. Blog post hopefully coming soon.

Over 100 page views on my blog? I can’t tell you how much joy it brings me to write around 1,000 about an individual action figure. theadultnerd.com/action-figur...

He had a theme he iterated on, for sure. That’s a “first printing” if the 1980s version that I read!

Still a fan of the one I already have

Didn't expect to hit Techmeme with this post!

This is a fantastic card for #AEWDynamite, but I wish we were seeing the Trios Championships be defended against the three challengers for Moxley’s world championship. I’d like to see those three continue to fight each other but still win matches as a unit.

Did I write one thousand words about Krang? No, I wrote FOURTEEN HUNDRED words about Krang when reviewing the Super7 Super Cyborg Krang Android. Posted publicly soon.

“Billy Gunn?” Yeah, THAT Billy Gunn! It was a brilliant to see the originator of the Outlaw exploit try to make it work a second time. Will @tonykhan.bsky.social create an “Acclaimed Rule” to prevent these shenanigans from happening again???

On June 8, 1998, Billy Gunn pinned Road Dogg in a multi-team tag match to WIN the WWE’s tag titles. There weren’t any rules against it. The WWE had to create an “Outlaw Rule” to prevent this from happening again, but it was a brilliant exposing of a loophole.

The plan was simple. Bowens would pin Caster to win the match and become the new tag team champions. It’s a loophole that almost everyone forgot… except Billy Gunn and The Acclaimed!

🧵 #AEW Full Gear almost made history. During the tag match, @bowensofficial.bsky.social and @platinummax.bsky.social were both legal and attempted to pull off something for the first time in 16 years, and the original architect was ringside.
