Nubia's Nonsense: Action Figures

Halloween might have been yesterday, but that doesn't mean you can't have a little Michael Myers in your life all your round thanks to Mezco Toyz.

This one is for my horror & action figure fans! John Carpenter debuted his film "Halloween" in October 1978. Little did he know that he had created a masterpiece for horror culture many pay homage to in their own films till this day. He also created a die hard (~~like Michael~~) fandom of Michael Myers fans. Michael Myers is terrifying. Though I am a fan, if I saw someone seriously approaching me dressed as Michael Myers and not uttering a word, I would probably run for the hills and never look back. Michael was a twisted, mysterious little boy from Haddonfield who killed his older sister and became a crazy, murderous, soul less eyed adult who wore a white mask and was often referred to as "The Shape"... he was also trying to kill the other sister he left behind.

The story of everyday girls like you and I, in a little town who worked as babysitters getting murdered on a mans quest to kill his sister seemed pretty possible which made this story quite scary. Long story short, Michael Myers is a horror icon and the Mezco Toyz 'The One:12 Collective Michael Myers Halloween' figure will mesmerize you. It's truly beautiful in the creepiest way possible. The details will knock you out your socks. His eyes still piercing as ever. The figure also brings great accessories from the film like the ghost sheet & Judith Myers tombstone.

Read the information and enjoy viewing the great photos of the Michael Myers figure in action below. This figure is available for pre-order now and is expected to ship sometime between June - August 2018. Check out the Mezco Toyz website HERE.

The One:12 Collective Michael Myers Halloween figure features a film accurate sculpt and coveralls as well as an alternate head with affixed ghost sheet and glasses to recreate the infamous “mistaken identity” scene in the film. The figure also comes equipped with both bloody and clean knives as well as a light-up Jack O' Lantern.

Hey Nubians,

Gosh I can't wait for Halloween...

Which is one of the reasons I loved receiving this email from Mezco Toyz. I became a big fan of Mezco Toyz about 2-3 years ago because of the detail that goes into their action figures and dolls. They design & create comic, TV, movie, and pop culture action figures for all ages.

I've been yearning for Fall lately and I'm a big time lover of Halloween. It's always been my favorite Holiday. I love horror movies, even the ones that actually manage to scare me (there aren't many). I was smitten when I saw The Living Dead Dolls Resurrection X collection . The Mezco Living Dead Dolls are eery as hell and quite popular! These are already sold out! *sigh*

I still wanted to share them because I admire the craftsmanship. I mean realistically, picture one of these on your bookshelf... you might be inspired to write a novel based on the creepiness alone. It's like they stare back. I love them! They make parts of me happy. They're also wearing real clothing and come in a coffin which is pretty sweet.

"This extremely limited edition set entombs four dolls from previous series reimagined and "resurrected" with a new, terrifying look. Join us as we once again reawaken the dead in this tenth resurrected series.

The dolls that comprise Resurrection Series X are:

Angus
Purdy
Tessa
The Lost

Each doll stands ten inches tall, has five points of articulation, and features real cloth clothing. Each doll comes in their own coffin box with a special opaque lid. The glossy ebony cover helps not only to block the light, but to highlight the silver foil accents adorning their name plates. The coffin itself has been reimagined with a sleek monochromatic black on black design specific to this series.

Resurrection X is limited to only 250 sets within the US."

As I mentioned prior these are sold out for now. But if you're into collecting or gifting amazing figures and dolls, follow Mezco Toyz online on their social media channels - FB - Insta - Twitter.

Check out this awesome The Living Dead Dolls 'Showtime Beetle Juice' you can pre-order now. Worth every penny.

What do you think about these Mezco Toyz Living Dead Dolls? Do they feed the dark places in your soul?

Hey Nubians,

March 2016 is going to be a SUPER month for Target!

(I'm bummed I missed NY Toy Fair but I was lucky enough to get a pass for my brother who went and covered the event.)

It's so fascinating to me that after years of hearing about women's struggle in the comic book industry and attending panels all about it, the last 2 years or so have brought along such magnificent change. I can finally see women getting more and more appreciate and recognition in what was considered a 'mans profession'. The best part of all is that it appears to be consistent change that doesn't seem like it'll slow down anytime soon. YAY! Very inspirational and it just goes to show you anything is possible if you try hard enough.

More girl power is about to hit the shelves at Target next month, March 2016 with a line of 'DC Super Hero Girls' action figures and a clothing line. The line will feature some of the most popular ladies of DC Comics... Supergirl, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman, Batgirl, and Bumble Bee.

My brother sent me these photographs he took below from NY Toy Fair where they were giving everyone an exclusive sneak peek.

I am so happy to see Target staying on top of Pop Culture trends and encouraging young ladies to feel extra super and powerful. Creating a message where from a young age girls can feel equal, out spoken, strong, and mighty! The t-shirts have awesome encouraging words on them such as COURAGE, HEART, BRAINS, SUPER, STRONG, EPIC, BRAVE.

Now they real question is.... Can I fit in a large? hehe.

Ok are these Todd McFarlane The Walking Dead toys and building sets insane or what?!

All AMC The Walking Dead fans take a breathe. Todd McFarlane has presented you with an early Christmas. He has some really cool shit displayed at the New York Toy Fair 2015 right about now. From cellblocks to boiler rooms to the Governor's truck to Walker Barriers. The detail going on in these figures and sets alone is enough to make a damn zombie want to come back to life and mess around with them.

I haven't kept up with The Walking Dead as much as I should have (I'm not currently up-to-date on the series) however, I can say one of my favorite things about these toys and sets is that I really feel they show raw emotion. I find myself starring at them almost as if they were a scene from the show... like I'm replaying a clip over and over again if that makes any sense.

There's some war, brutality, blood and violence going on in these displays. Anything to survive another day and get away from these damn walkers.

How sick is this?

They have so much you can pick from for you to build your own The Walking Dead world right in your living room if you choose. Build a ton of collectibles with Walkers getting their brains blown out, FUN STUFF KIDS.

What do you think about these figures? Hope you've added a few to your gift list. I have tons of friends that would literally die (~~and maybe become a walker~~) for these.

Xx Nubia
