| 2230 | Article | echidna64 | Great read! As a kid I was really into the Jurassic Park and AVP toys. They don't make em like the used to! | Apr 27, 2015 |  | |
| 2233 | Article | massreality | I had all of those Nerf balls. I'll never forget my disappointment in the Siren one. It whistled alright, just not like it did in the commercial. I have a developing interest in the old heroes like The Shadow, Green Hornet, Lone Ranger, and Zorro. A few months ago, I sat down and watched The Shadow and was impressed. I don't think it's held up well, but I think if I had seen in 1994 when I was eleven, I would have loved it. I've been reading The Shadow comics that Dynamite created a couple of years ago. Garth Ennis (Preacher/Punisher) was writing them, and they were actually pretty good. I loved the covers Alex Ross did for them. He made The Shadow pretty friggin amazing. It's just a shame its a character that is unloved and forgotten. I'd love to see Hollywood reboot it. | Kenner Action Toy Guide '94 | Apr 29, 2015 | |
| 2234 | Article | Vaporman87 | @massreality: Agreed. Those are the types of movies that should be the target of the "reboot". Those that just kind of flew under the radar and never gained traction the first go around. | Kenner Action Toy Guide '94 | Apr 29, 2015 | |
| 2235 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @Vaporman87 Yes, Batman was the king of variants, but he didn't have to be. He has the greatest rogue's gallery of 'em all. @thecrow174 Where did Shaq have a burger? How did I miss that? @echidna64 Did you ever do a crossover where a theme park of Predators on display ran amok and had to be captured by a very svelt Dennis Nedry? @massreality Now see whatcha done? I gotta go download some comics on my iPad. Sam Raimi has been trying to make another movie featuring The Shadow for years, fingers crossed. | Kenner Action Toy Guide '94 | May 01, 2015 | |
| 2236 | Article | Vaporman87 | @Hoju: Raimi? That would be very cool. I'd love to see what he could do with the character. | Kenner Action Toy Guide '94 | May 01, 2015 | |
| 2238 | Article | Mr Magic | @Hoju: He made a deal with Burger King in 2002. The burger was called the Shaq Pack. http://www.truschoolsports.com/2013/11/throwback-thursday-shaq-pack-from-burger-king/ | Kenner Action Toy Guide '94 | May 01, 2015 | |
| 2239 | Article | massreality | @Hojo: Didn't I read that Raimi only made Darkman because he couldn't get the rights to The Shadow back in the 90's? | Kenner Action Toy Guide '94 | May 01, 2015 | |
| 2240 | Article | Hoju Koolander | @massreality yeah, I remember there being a Darkman connection there somewhere. | Kenner Action Toy Guide '94 | May 06, 2015 | |
| 2245 | Article | jkatz | I'm late to the party on this, but I read a story about Michael Ulsan (who's been involved with pretty much everything Batman related, ever) was meeting with some Kenner people, who through their contract were only allowed to make toys based of the movie and comics and apparently were out of ideas. Uslan shows them a bunch of old issues from the 50s, aka the ones with all the really crazy, outlandish stuff, and Kenner used them as inspiration for expanding their toyline. Always wondered if that's how my beloved "Capture Claw Batman" came to be.. | Kenner Action Toy Guide '94 | May 07, 2015 | |
| 3183 | Article | Shaddam Corrino IV | This article has me nostalgic for the '90's and all of the toys from movies that were made, and also wishing that there were toys based on the new movies like <i>Avengers: Age Of Ultron</i> (all that we got from that movie-well, I got- were the Hot Wheels cars), <i>The Martian</i>, <i>Jurassic World</i>, <i>Mad Max: Fury Road</i>, <i>Ant-Man</i>, and a few others. At least we have toys based on <i>Star Wars: The Force Unleashed</i>, but I would've loved to see a set of toys from <i>The Martian</i> (The Lander, The Hab, action figures of Mark Watney and the rest of the crew of the <i>Ares</i>.) Where are they? @Vaporman87: There were bad-guy (and gal) figures from Batman-The Animated Series (Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Two-Face, Clayface, the Joker, Penguin, Catwoman, Bane, and Mr. Freeze), as well as ones of the Creeper and several others. I'd love to see a new set of Shadow action figures as well. | Kenner Action Toy Guide '94 | Dec 11, 2015 | |
