Doctor Doom Custom Cape

I have been looking for a nice fabric cape for my Marvel Legends Doctor Doom figure. I had gotten one off eBay a few months back, but that one, while nice, was a bit large (and was made for the older Marvel Legends Doom). This cape I got from a seller on Instagram known as dd19customs. He has a YouTube channel and is known as Daredevil19, where he reviews action figures. His girlfriend makes custom wired cloth capes for action figures and they sell them on their Instagram account. They look pretty nice so I got me a Doom one once it was available.

Once I got it in hand, I can say that it is indeed, very good. It's very nicely crafted and is just the right size for this Doom figure. The gold cuffs and chains at the front are a very nice touch, the material of the cape is good, soft but not thin, and the bendable wires inside the edges of the cape are able to hold poses well. Even though they feel thin, they are sturdy, which is impressive. I had ordered another cloth cape off eBay some months ago and that one was so damn cheap, the stitched at one end quickly came undone and the bendable wire was a very thin, cheap material that looked a bit thicker than the bendable ties on bread and plastic bags. This cape from dd19customs is wonderfully crafted and at $26 shipped, it's a damn good deal!

As you can see in the photos, it looks nice and holds poses very well, allowing you to pose Doom with his cape flowing up in the wind, down, to the side, pretty much any cape pose you can think of. If you're looking for a nice, affordable cloth cape for your Doom figure, then I highly recommend you go over to dd19customs on Instagram and purchase one. They make capes for various action figures, and they all look nice. And now that I own one, I can attest to their great quality.

These final 2 photos are him posing with Harley Quinn from Birds of Prey, a figure that I will be reviewing next.

With his wired cloth cape, Doom is now ready to be the badass he is. Sayonara!

Titanic Creations Yongary 1967

This figure was released in late December, and I got it about 2 days before the New Year, so I'm counting it as a 2025 release. It is the Titanic Creations version of the Korean kaiju Yongary, Monster From The Deep. The film was released in 1967 as a Godzilla ripoff, with several ideas copied from the Gamera series, such as his tusks, his ability to fire a stream of flames from his mouth, and even firing a laser beam from his horn, similar to the slicing one used by Gyaos. The film is pretty goofy, but Yongary, like most of those Asian monsters, was pretty cool (to me, at least), so I was psyched that someone finally made a figure of this lesser known kaiju. When Titanic Creations put it up for pre-order, they announced a series of tiers, where they would add accessories when a certain number of orders were met. Enough fans ordered him, so that Yongary ended up with a shit ton of stuff, making him absolutely worth the price. In addition to the kaiju, you get a flame breath effect, ...

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...
