Jazwares Abstrakt from Fortnite


My latest buy from the Jazwares Fortnite line is Abstrakt. He wears a sleeveless hoodie, hat, and comes with his tagging/painting epuipment and weapons. 


The first thing to note is that his arm snapped off when I was moving it at the joint. It seemed to be unusually tight, so the peg snapped right off. I was not amused but also happy it's not a pricier Figuarts or Mafex. I ended up gluing his arm back on. He can move it now, he just doesn't have the upper arm swivel ability. 





Abstrakt is equipped with the Renegade Roller harvesting tool, Tag Bag back bling, Semi-Auto Sniper Rifle, Suppressed Pistol, face mask and a yellow Balloon. He also has 3 different face plates, one with surprised expression and the other 2 looking serious. Those other two are very similar. They should've gone with maybe a smiling or angry face as the 3rd. I also noticed that the face plates are a slightly darker shade than his neck. This is most noticeable in the light.






Despite the arm snapping issue due to a tight joint, the rest of the joints are fine. He's actually quite expressive and can be put into many poses.  Even though he's wearing a thick jacket, his waist articulation is still pretty good. 





His face plates are inter-changeable with other figures in the line, so he can sport the rabbit raider suit. And since all the hands are molded the same, they can hold each other's weapons as well.





He's a good figure, despite his QC issue. You may want to apply some heat if you notice the joints are tight to avoid the issue I had. These figures are a good deal for the price they cost.

Help Me… I’m Possessed (1974) / #Missingcouple (2024)

I've watched some weird, obscure horror movies throughout my life. I can now add this lurid 1974 schlockfest to that growing list. In a castle in the desert, Dr. Arthur Blackwood runs a sanitarium filled with mentally disturbed patients (as well as staff). He claims to be working on finding a way to cure people of any violent tendencies they have, and brags about his younger sister, innocent, child-like Melanie, as evidence that his treatment works. When she was a child, their parents had to keep her locked up and chained in the basement, to control her violent fits. Now that he's cured her, Arthur has his wife Diane come to the castle to meet Melanie, so that they can be one big, happy family. Diane begins to grow suspicious that something is amiss after a Sheriff shows up investigating the murder of 2 local teens, and sets about on her own investigation, hoping to uncover the sinister secrets that she feels her husband is hiding. Help Me... I'm Possessed is an outrageous,...

RicSan Custom Toys Kyōrū Kaiju (Titanosaurus)

My latest kaiju figure purchase is the Titanosaurus made by Ricsan Custom Toys. I own and love the Varan & Gabara, so of course I had to preorder this one when it was available. He was delivered earlier this week. This kaiju hails from the last Godzilla film of the Showa era, 1975's Terror of Mechagodzilla. The Black Hole aliens are back, rebuilding their robot in another effort to take over the planet. They enlist the help of an ostracized Earth scientist named Mafune and his daughter Katsura, who are able to control an aquatic dinosaur named Titanosaurus. They plan to use both kaiju and mecha to attack Japan. Titano was a cool monster, with his tail that opened into a fish fin, and he would use it to create whirlpools in the sea, and high winds on land. I'm hoping that S.H. Monsterarts makes one for the 50th anniversary of the film, but when I saw this Ricsan Custom version, I couldn't pass it up. Titanosaurus (called the Kyōrū Kaiju), comes in a white box, with its n...

S.H. MonsterArts Anguirus 1972

One of my most anticipated figure releases of 2025 was finally delivered this last week. Godzilla's trusty sidekick, S. H. MonsterArts Anguirus (based on the 1972 suit). From the early video and photo reviews I had seen, he looked to have turned out a great figure. Now that I have him in hand, he absolutely is! This Ankylosaurus is based on the suit that was introduced in 1968's Destroy All Monsters, and made subsequent appearances in Godzilla vs. Gigan (72), Godzilla vs. Megalon (73), and Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla (74). Anguirus was the 2nd Toho monster to ever appear on screen, dueling with the big G in 1955's Godzilla Raids Again. For the later films, he became Godzilla's buddy, helping him out in his various battles. I'm a bit surprised that it took Bandai this long to release Anguirus in the MonsterArts line, as he's one of the more popular kaiju, but better late than never. He's painted in a chocolate brown, with pale yellow on his various spikes, hor...
