The Custom Spy vs Spy Project is Simply MAD! - The "usual gang of idiots" never cease to surprise us and they're definitely turning heads with their Spy vs Spy Custom Toy Project. I first heard about this in a recent issuer of MAD (yes, I still read MAD) and then spotted this series of pics on the MAD blog. Oh, how I wish these toys were being sold!
Lost Vintage Masters of the Universe Commercial is EPIC! - This classic MOTU commercial popped up on You Tube recently, which appears to be someone's video of a screen playing the commercial, probably at some convention (like SDCC), which is noted by the Star Wars music and crowd noise in the background. The commercial shows what He-man and the gang could have been like if it weren't for those butchers at Filmation. (Sorry, I'm still not over how horrible I always thought the cartoon was.)

And Speaking of Masters of the Universe Online Videos - You've got to see this!
10 Undeniably Nerdy Burger King Kids Meal Sets - Frankly, I have always thought that the BK Lounge was always a bit more hip to what collectors want alongside their cheeseburger and fries. (via Topless Robot)
Some Thoughts on the DCUC Debacle - DC Universe Classics are getting the shaft (sort of) and fans are not happy. Matty has given people a choice on how to keep getting their DCUC figures, and fans are still not happy. I smell doom on the horizon.
Speaking of Doomed Toy Lines - The DC Retro Action figures (which I loved, but admittedly, cherry picked the characters I liked) is getting the axe, and a small band of devotees have banded together to keep them alive. You can help too by joining their Facebook page and signing their petition.
Spy Monkey Creations Goes on Hiatus - But only because they have something up their sleeves.
Tons of New Marvel Universe Preview Pics - Cool Toy Review posted a massive gallery of Hasbro's New MU figures and all I can say is, "YES! SHE-HULK!"
Shocker Toys Served with Court Papers - Not only were they served with papers, they were served with papers at their own comic con panel! Ouch. I've been hearing bad grumblings about this company for a couple of years now (and been personally snubbed by them twice), so I can't say I'm surprised. We'll have to see how this turns out.

No shocker here about what happen with Shocker Toys given there history. I hope this can be all settled so i can’t finally get that Phantom figure they are doing.
No kidding! But at this rate, we may never see that Phantom figure. Too bad.
