It’s hard to believe that it’s now been nearly 17 years since The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask was first released for the N64. While reception for the game was mixed at the time, it’s grown to be one of the most beloved games in the Zelda franchise and spawned countless fan-made masks. But in 2017, Zelda enthusiasts won’t have to have custom, unofficial copies of the titular mask on their walls anymore: First4Figures has announced an official life-size Majora’s Mask replica will go up for sale on Tuesday, January 10th 2017!

So while the new Halo Mega Construx Challenger Series is just now seeing the light of day from many chains, it’s actually been out for quite a while.

Mega Construx Halo figures and sets are now beginning to pour into more and more stores, and I spotted two such branded sets at my local Toys R Us for the first time today: the Mega Construx Halo Brute Customizer Pack and Spartan Customizer Pack!

Perhaps their answer would be Sakura, Ibuki or Juri. But there’s another candidate on the list–and she’s not even always a playable character (or a “she” at all, for that matter)! Poison is a surprise fan-favorite of many Street Fighter fans, and she’ll finally be getting her due in high-end form this winter–the Pop Culture Shock Toys Poison Mixed Media Statue has now been revealed!
