I'm finally catching up on all the backlogged Imaginext figures I've had laying around forever. The only downfall to running a review blog, is that I can't rip open a toy as soon as I buy it. Waiting until I have time to photograph them in the packaging puts my patience to the test. I never would have expected to like a Scooby-Doo Imaginext line so much. Sure, the main characters look great (except for Scooby himself ironically). But the great thing is that this line has proved to be a great vehicle for all the "monsters." The removable hoods are perfect for reminiscing over those iconic "jinkies!" moments. The only sad thing is that so far this line has only shown up at Toys R Us. It hasn't been expressly declared an exclusive, but I feel that the future availability of the line is uncertain. I would love a One-Eyed Skeleton, a Phantom Racer, and a 10,000 Volt Ghost - they were always my favorites. Maybe Target, Wal-Mart or the revived Kay-Bee will pick up the line and give us a few more sets. Let's check out Velma and Daphne below!

Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here are Daphne and Velma together.
And here they are with the perennial Scooby action figures from Character Options Toys.
Cheers!
Imaginext is really coming up with some great figures. Too bad Hasbro dropped the ball with Star Wars. These little figures are cool.
ReplyDeleteI know the pain of waiting to open figures until I've taken some MOC pics!! I have about a dozen figures I've bought over the last several months waiting to be photographed & freed from their plastic prisons.
ReplyDeleteI've sorta been in lurker mode here for a while, but I still check your site every few days!
Take care,
