Relevance. The bane of the toy reviewer. You know when the heat of the moment is lost to the icy grip of reality, turning tomorrow's next big thing into yesterday's broken dream? When a forgotten unboxing weeps frightened and alone in the the permanent shadow of a blackened today, as ravenous onyx eyes pierce a darkness that was never given the chance to become light?
That's you trying to get a review out, that is.

Iron Factory Asura Knights (IF EX 06-10)
I received IF EX 16 Pink Assassin a few weeks ago. This set, numbered EX 06-10 and first unveiled to the public during a demonstration of rubbing two sticks together in order to create fire, was released shortly afterwards. So yeah, it's been a bit of a wait for this one to drop. In fact, the collective name this set of Legends scaled robotic warriors go by is actually Latin for 'Most Delayed 3P Product Since Igear Ratchet and Ironhide'. True story*

Wei Jiang M01 Commander (Oversized Evasion Optimus Prime) Review
Well this one came out of leftfield. A knock off - which I very rarely buy - of a Bayformer - which I'd all but given up on - that, and let's get this out of the way right now, might actually be a contender for figure of the year. But lets not get ahead of ourselves.

Mastermind Creations R-13 Spartan
'You can't beat 'Wreck 'n' Rule'. Pure poetry' - Ironfist, LSOTW
Fiercely dedicated to both cause and troops while dishing out the sass to his commanding officers, here we had a disposable but nonetheless memorable badass confined to exist solely in print. Yet Impactor's harpoon handed shadow loomed large long after he was gone.
