Welcome to Utopia...

.. if you're into rants about toys new and oldish.

This is Collectors Haven, somewhere I've decided to start sharing my analysis on the many, many, random toy purchases of mine. Very much Japanese centric, but you never know what'll show up.

Multiverse of Meh-ness

Great Balls of Fire!

A very special article, especially for me. Scarlet Witch isn't exactly my favourite character, though to be fair if you're not Scarlett...

Walk Like A Chicken

I generally avoid Marvel Legends, and when I do get them I do so knowing they're not going to live up to standards of other figures I...

And Then There Were Three...

Happy Weekend. First one back and I've reacclimatized myself to life back home.. or more accurately, accepted the fact I'm now back to my...

Love and Blunder

The Box Office hasn't been particularly kind to superhero movies as of late, even tried and true. One example of the epic collapse is...

America's Ass, Part 2

A Hot Toys figure I never really considered getting was the 2012 Avengers Captain America from the Endgame line. It looked nicer, but I...
