Toy Fair 2017: Funko's Beauty and the Beast Movie Pops

Yes yes yes...we just showed you 32 kabillion Funko products coming out in 2017. Yes, kabillion is a valid unit of measurement. Ask my friend's kids. Our Toy Fair 2017 coverage continues with a quick, closer look at Funko's Beauty and the Beast movie Pops, as seeing these products in person is often a deciding factor in buying for loads of people. Once again M@ Hawkins was on the scene to shoot super heroes and zombies and massive building chewing monsters....and begrudgingly snapped the pastel stuff for those that love it. THANKS M@!

Toy Fair 2014: Underground Toys/Character & Character Building Doctor Who

We are going to breeze right through this one, as the die hards have probably already seen the lot on day 1 and we've only got what info could be read on signs about the room, so it's all pretty straight forward. I will note that the company producing IS Character, but in the states, Underground Toys is the name you'd know at retail. Character Building is the only name you'd need to know for the construction sets, but we've yet to see them on sale here. ~Screams at the sky in anguish~

On display were the following Underground Toys/ Character Action figures, Playsets, plush and Roleplay items...

Doctor Who Toys Celebrate the Beginning and The End

Geeks across the United States took in the season finale of Doctor Who this weekend and then went straight to Twitter to spoil it for everyone else. For shame. Since we are all geeks, we thought we'd help you celebrate as only a geek can...with PURCHASES!! What better way to show our love and commemorate a moment than to buy toys of our favorite characters and hug them like they are the child we will never have! Here's a quick rundown of figures you can hunt down which are either already released or will be released soon which will allow you to relive your favorite Whotastic episodes. Follow along closely, as the Brits can't make their numbering system as simple as 1, 2, 3...

Eleventh Doctor (from Series 5 of the show and up for the newbs) action figures from Underground Toys

SERIES 6:

Wave 1A:
Eleventh Doctor with Cowboy Hat
Silent 1 (mouth closed)
Silent 2 (mouth open)
Young Amy Pond
Nephew

Wave 1B:
Silent 1 (mouth closed)
Silent 2 (mouth open)
Eleventh Doctor with Cowboy Hat
Eleventh Doctor with beard and wearing straight jacket
Uncle (with staff and swappable head)
Idris (with Psychic Containers)

Wave 1C:
Eleventh Doctor (with Beard Action!)
Cyberman (face damaged..tho oddly its not)
Cyberman (chest damaged and open Cyberman head)
A swarm of 20 Cybermats!!
Peg Soldier






















Series 6 Wave 2A:
Eleventh Doctor (with Flesh mask!)
Uncle (with Fleshhhhh and swapable head)
Idris (with psychic containers)
Astronaut (with..baby head? I'm not up on all the episodes.)
River Song (with blaster weapon and Flesh mask!)
Ganger Doctor (with gooey head and hands!)
(Wave 2B is pretty much the same wave..not sure why they did this)
(Wave 2C adds a Cyberman with Flesh mask. Uncle and Idris not in this case.)













Point of fact, Underground was FLESH CRAZY this year and made more than a couple of goo related items. Among them were the Flesh Goo Pod; a Tardis shaped box filled with goop and random body parts! Another was the Flesh Bowl Figure Creator, which oddly has nothing to do with pleasuring yourself. Not everything with the word Flesh in it is dirty now. This set allows you to make a jiggly Doctor Ganger figure with a sort of Weapon X chamber which ozzes flesh over a bio-frame. I wonder if cherry jello works as well. Or OJ? You can have a fun time with a Doctor on a stick!















We'll also give you a look at the adorkable items you can't say no to. The first is a bump and go Cybermat. Sadly, it doesn't bear it's oh-so-cute teeth of doom, but it does wiggle its butt as it rolls along!




Next we have a set of talking plush including the Tardis (with a light up top), 2 different Daleks and a Cyberman. Plush phrases include but are not limited to:
TARDIS - Materialization Sound
Cyberman - "You will become like us or you will be deleted."; "Upgrading is compulsory."
Daleks - "Exterminate, exterminate!"; "You would make a good Dalek."













Finally, Forbidden Planet gets the exclusive on these Doctor Who costume T shirts, allowing you to seamlessly blend into Time Lord gatherings or Cyberman Hoe-downs. Be amazed.

New Doctor Who Figures Keep Smilin'

To get this out of the way, I haven't watched any of these new episodes with your new fabulously hipsterific young Doc who I suspect drinks Starbucks and shakes his ass at danger. Correct? I thought so. Underground Toys is well aware your love for Whoville knows no bounds, so they promise to keep churning out action figures until we have no plastic left for cups and Tupperware (spell check told me to uppercase that..how formal) and artificial hearts. In their newest lot, you'll find Prisoner Zero, Impure Dalek (not pictured because he's difficult), Smiler, Vampire Francesco and a Roman Auton. First off, if I were a vampire, I would definitely want my name to be Francesco, so I'm sad someone has already claimed this. Secondly, when you tell me there is an Impure Dalek, I picture a working door on the front and when you open it, there's a shriveled up little man in there with his hand on his package. UNCLEAN!!! Buy some toys this November, will you?

Doctor Who 2010: Wave 1 Action Figures

Sadly, I am without BBC America and have to rely on the kindness of the DVD gods to catch me up on all the geeky goodness going on across the pond, but from that sound of fluttering skirts, I can tell the ladies like the new doctor! Underground Toys also loves the good Doctor and as far as I can tell, will be cranking out new 5 inch action figures until you start throwing rocks to stop them. BAD WOLF!! The 2010 line has just been revealed and wave 1 features some dynamic figures sure to send you into dorkspasms. You've been warned. Here's the lineup...

Hawthorne from the episode The Beast Below
Regenerating Weeping Angel from the episode Flesh and Stone
Professor Bracewell with revealed robotic chest and swappable arm from the episode Victory of The Daleks
