My Reviews

Sun, 28 Dec 2014 23:25:08 +0000

I started a review website back in May, I did two reviews as well as a discussion on a wave. However, due to things happening in real life I found myself with no time and I haven't been on it since.

I'm thinking about doing some more now my life's freed up a bit, so here's a link to the site-

TMNT Blind Bag Review

Tue, 18 Nov 2014 18:02:01 +0000

I reviewed a couple of the figures from the Ninja Turtles Blind Bags

buttheadsmate's TMNT review .

Wed, 19 Nov 2014 14:31:13 +0000

I've been pretty vociferous about this line so I've decided to generally comment on them now that I have received them .

As soon as you open the blind-bag you are completely overwhelmed by two things in ascending order ...the Minimate & the toluene that wafts deliciously from the packet . If you're unsure what toluene [toluol] is don't worry ....don't worry at all.... just be happy . Maybe I sniffed too long because I can't find much to criticise .

The various Turtles are superb in most every way ..........especially small ways like..... 'they stand up' & 'they don't fall apart' which are important to me . I now like the keyring idea .... because they don't fall apart .

Did I mention the toluene ? If I didn't then I'll happily mention it ....very happily .

Falling apart : These are without question some of the loveliest & most innovative Minimates in years & someone somewhere must have demanded (not asked) that these minimates should stay in one piece unless its owner wishes otherwise . That's not a criticism by any means but the blurb on the front of the blind bag "swap parts & accessories " is kind of ironic when these are, in relative terms' the least-swapable Minimate line yet ............I can elaborate if pushed but as I said, I feel that these 'mates suffer little because of it . In a nutshell [turtleshell?] I understand their design & for what it's worth I approve.

This line is a huge leap for Minimate design .....mainly forwards......... I do however have one major criticism ............Shredder .

I'm not going to elaborate too much.....I'll just wait & see whether I've just got 3 identical runts or whether they're all the same . If they are [all the same] then even the toluene isn't going to help.

The first one is Hulk and Loki: http://needlessessentialsonline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=2481

Followed by Daredevil and Venom: http://needlessessentialsonline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=2486
