It's not quite Christmas yet - Hell, it's not even Halloween. But the stores are already stocking the stockings and setting up trees, and the new figures from Mcfarlane based on the original Cartoon How the Grinch Stole Christmas are now hitting retailers.
As a huge fan of the old cartoon (some of us are old enough to have seen the original airing of the show that very first time in 1966), I've really been looking forward to these. It's a bit of a mixed bag, and the Reindeer Max set is hurt by the silly action feature. But the 'You're heart is two sizes too small' set is outstanding, and fans should be very pleased.
The guest review today is from Jeff Parker and covers the new Predator from Hot Toys, based on Predator 2 this time. He loves it, although you probably won't be surprised by that. You can find all the reviews at the usual:

Next week we have a bunch of superhero reviews, along with some more Mcfarlane - til then, thanks for reading!
