GeneralsJoes kicks off Sideshow September with 12″ Crimson Guard review

Over the past couple of weeks, Mysterious Stranger has been inundating my mailbox with guest reviews for Sideshow Collectibles products, but I haven’t had a chance to get them all posted yet.  Figured now was as good a time as any to have a “Sideshow Collectibles Review Week”.

With the 12″ Crimson Guard hitting mailboxes just last week, I figured he was a good figure to start this week off with.

I cannot thank Mysterious Stranger enough for the time he’s taken with all of these images and reviews.  It’s not a quick and easy task, so thanks to him for putting all of this work in.  Be sure to stay glued to my Sideshow Collectibles review section, or hit the direct links as they come up:

Keep watching, more Sideshow Collectibles goodness to come this week!

What’s on Joe Mind Special Edition – Canadian JoeCon 2012!

SHOW NOTES

For the second year in a row, WOJM goes north to cover the Canadian Joe Con.  Join WOJM co-host Gary, Noted Author James Kavanaugh, Pluv John from JoeCustoms.com, and the voice of the CJC Ryan aka Scramble as the report directly from the floor of the 2012 Canadian JoeCon.  Ryan reviews the set with Gary and gives insider info on their creation and background.  After the review, we go forward in time as WOJM got a chance to drop a recorder in front of the Canadian JoeCon staff to get the lowdown on the 2012 event and the future of the convention.  Before wrapping up, we go back to the sales floor with our traveling co-hosts to find out what they got and any last minute shout outs before heading back home.  If you liked what you heard, we encourage you to attend next year.  We promise it won’t be a time you forget!
