Toxic Avenger Reboot!
They’re doing a Toxic Avenger reboot! It’s a classic 1980s Troma film…that I never actually watched as a kid. Nope, but I was a huge fan of the Toxic Crusaders, that kid-friendly cartoon version! So at least I have that. But I’m definitely going to try to catch this new Toxic Avenger reboot, full of Troma glory.
It’s an R-rated trailer, so you’re gonna have to click through to YouTube to watch it.
Peter Dinklage as Toxie sounds great. This looks gross and silly and awesome. Should be a lot of fun whenever we get to see it. Apparently it premiered at a film festival a week or two ago…but I can’t find anything online about where or when it will be released to the public. I hope it is someday!

6 Random Action Figures I Had as a Kid
Let’s take a trip down memory lane, shall we? I don’t remember what inspired this list, but I think it’ll be a little fun. At least for me. Depends on how interesting you find random childhood trivia about the guy who writes this blog. I was thinking about toys for some reason and came up with a list idea of random action figures I had from my childhood!
I grew up in the 1980s, so I had a ton of traditional action figures from the likes of the Ninja Turtles, Real Ghostbusters and G.I. Joe. They were the big ones for me. I had exactly one Transformer — Inferno the fire truck — and a ton of superheroes. I even had a phase of loving American Gladiator toys! Sprinkled among these average toys were some true gems. Some really random and obscure action figures that somehow found their way into my childhood and now my adult memory bank.
Join me after the jump for a trip down memory lane to some really neat action figures that have just stuck in my head all these decades later! And feel free to share some of your own in the comments.
