“Replicas” wants to be many movies, can’t quite be any of them

As someone with a great love of Keanu Reeves, I’ll watch pretty much any movie he’s in so when Replicas came my way, I ripped the packaging off that DVD with great delight and fervor. I mean, this was Keanu Reeves in a science fiction action movie about the dangers of pushing science too far (a theme I can get behind) and, like I said before, Keanu Reeves.

Yes, you’ll love the new Maleficent Sixth Scale Figure By Hot Toys (Review)

 

My love for Angelina Jolie and Disney are both well documented and, while I wasn’t blown away by Maleficent as a films, I’m absolutely blown away by the new Maleficent Sixth Scale Figure by Hot Toys.

Sideshow Collectibles sent one over for me to review and I can tell you, without hesitation or equivocation, that I love this figure. The detail is insanely good. The face…I mean, it’s a mini Angelina (which is about as close as I’ll ever get to meeting her).

My favorite accessory has to be the green flames. In a perfect world, I’d be able to conjure flames like this. I also love the staff and the fact that you can change out an attachment on that staff and then set the crow on it.

I’m also particularly in love with her boots. If someone ever makes a pair of them in a human scale, I’d buy them up in a heartbeat.

The figure is in stock now and, if my opinion matters at all, I’m gonna tell you to do something nice for yourself and get one of your very own.

As usual, my photography skills aren’t the greatest, but I hope my enthusiasm comes through because she really is gorgeous. I’ve also included some of Sideshow’s product photos because they showcase her so well.

Check them out after the break.
