Well, we've just crossed a threshold! Regular Advent calendars run from December 1st to the 24th, meaning yesterday would have been the last day. And yet, here we are on the 25th, with a figure that's still thematically appropriate: Santa … Continue reading →

Clearly Jakks knew that some people would be using this like a normal December advent calendar, because today's toy is Santa Gizmo. Same mogwai body as usual, but this time the head is molded with a floppy red Santa hat … Continue reading →

Dang, it took 13 days for Daffy to go from his mogwai form to a grown-up Gremlin? He really is the most unpredictable one around, isn't he! His bright green body gets dark spots by the elbows, matching the few … Continue reading →
