G I Joe Rise of Cobra and Retaliation Figures

The Joe line up from the G I Joe movie universe of Rise of Cobra and Retaliation. Duke, Roadblock, Flint, Snake Eyes, Scarlett, Lady Jaye, Ripcord and Heavy Duty.
Though many Joe collectors favor the vintage figures, the quality of the line was at it's highest during the movie period. A higher level of articulation and great sculpting from computer scans of the actors faces make for some great looking figures.

Spider-man Children in Danger

 At around 1990 Marvel UK produced a short PSA comic strip in the UK that was handed out for free around some primary schools to help make children aware of stranger danger. The story features Spider-man on a trip to the UK helping to stop a criminal kidnapping a young boy before giving some advice to children about not talking ot strangers or accepting gifts from them. The mini comic was written by Simon Furman, best known for his work on Transformers.

Judge Dredd Lawman Of The Future

Judge Dredd: Lawman of the Future is a comic from the mid 90s that came out to tie in with the Stallone movie and used the designs from the film. However it didn’t seem to be particularly set in the movie universe. They wisely never had Dredd remove his helmet and no reference was made to the events of the movie. It lasted 23 issues and ended with an Action Special which contained an index of every issue released and the stories in them. The covers had some nice art work and some of the stories were illustrated by Geoff Senior who is a personal fave from his days on Marvel UK’s Transformers comic.

Bucky O'Hare

Bucky O'Hare is the captain of the Righteous Indignation along with his crew mates Jenny the cat, Deadeye Duck, Blinky the android and Bruiser the Betelgeusian Berserker Baboon. Together with other allies such as Commander Dogstar and Willy Duwitt they battle the evil Toad Empire who seek to rule the aniverse.

 Bucky began life in 1978, created by Larry Hama of G.I Joe fame but wasn't published until 1984 in Neal Adams Echo of Future Past comic, later to be reprinted in it's own 5 issue mini series to tie in with the cartoon and toyline of 1991.
A UK comic was also released at that time, reprinting the 5 US comics and then continuing the story with original UK material for another 15 issues.

The animated series titled Bucky O'Hare and The Toad Wars which aired in 1991 only lasted 13 episodes before being cancelled. The first two episodes are heavily based on the original 5 issue comic run. So far it has not had a US DVD release though the UK got the complete series.

The cartoon series was of course created to advertise the toyline that consisted of ten characters along with a few vehicles. In this first and only wave we saw Bucky, Deadeye, Bruiser, Blinky, Willy, Commander Dogstar, Toadborg, Al Negator, the Toad Air Marshall and a Toad Stormtrooper released. Noticably absent is Jenny, the final member of Bucky's crew who would have seen release in a planned second wave. Unfortunately with the first wave toy sales not meeting expectation, the second wave was cancelled.

However, in early 2018 Boss Fight Studio released the first two figures in a new line of Bucky O'Hare toys. To scale with the original toyline but featuring modern articulation and highly detailed sculpts based on the original comic art. The first wave consisting of Bucky himself and Jenny! So long time fans can finally complete the crew of the Righteous Indignation. Wave two will add Deadeye to the line up while wave 3 will include an updated Toad Storm Trooper.
