Spotted Online – Poe Ghostal’s Mars Attacks Martian Commander Review
Poe’s recent announcement that he’s closing the site down (discussed here) led me to spend a little time exploring the site, and once I ran across his review of the Mezco Mars Attacks action figure* I just knew I had to share a link to Poe’s review.
I’m a little embarrassed to admit that I do not own this action figure. You would think that between running a site about toys and the recent announcement of Mars Attacks: The Dice Game (posted here) I would already own Mezco’s Mars Attacks action figure. Well, I had better fix that really quick . . . and it’s thanks to stumbling across Poe’s review this morning that I’m even reminded of the Mezco figure.
I’m going to miss Poe’s updates to the site.

He’s really great but he is top-heavy. If you haven’t seen the funko pop! Mars attacks martian, you need to. In my opinion, he’s the best pop! figure yet. They really nailed him & he really works in that style.
@Matthew M – I’ve got both (and have reviewed both) the Pop! Vinyl Mars Attacks toy — https://www.battlegrip.com/?p=37142 — and the Blox Mars Attacks toy — https://www.battlegrip.com/?p=44883 — and must thank Topps and Funko for the toys. One of those times when contacts really came through and got me some neat stuff.
Both toys live in my office at Steve Jackson Games.
Just bummed they never released their 3.75″ line.
