Countdown to Halloween 2026 Day 30: Elvis Presley as the Wolfman Action Figure

The King of Rock and Roll howls at the full moon as the beast inside him is revealed. I asked Grok to make an action figure based on what if Elvis Presley was the Wolfman. He must have turned during a concert because he's wearing a torn jumpsuit.

Countdown to Halloween 2026 Day 29: Humphrey Bogart as the Mummy Action Figure

Grok's looking at you, kid. Add a fedora to the Mummy and you get a very unique Humphrey Bogart action figure. This should come with a scarab beetle and a Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless gun. A sarcophagus and a 1940 Buick Phaeton car are sold separately.

Countdown to Halloween 2026 Day 28: Marilyn Monroe as the Bride of Frankenstein Action Figure

I asked Grok what an action figure of Marilyn Monroe as the Bride of Frankenstein would look like. I wasn't expecting much really but she came out okay enough to show her for this week's Women Wednesday post. I wouldn't immediately recognize her as the actress. She does have the beauty mark but is a bit on the slim side. I was delighted that she was shown still in the package. I would get her just to have her along with the John Wayne as Frankenstein's Monster action figure.

Countdown to Halloween 2026 Day 27: Tiny Nightmares Series 1 Sam Mini Figure

Here's the Samhain aka Sam mini figure from the Tiny Nightmares Series 1 mystery bag. He's the murderous kid dressed as a scarecrow in the Trick 'r Treat movie. Sorry about the dark pictures but my digiital camera is acting up again.

Countdown to Halloween 2026 Day 20: Tiny Nightmares Series 1 Insert and Wrapper

I picked up four mystery bags of Tiny Nightmares at the local Dollar Tree a few weeks ago. I gave two to my sister and kept two. I won't show or tell you what figures I got yet but I will show the insert and wrapper. The mystery figures that are available are shown to be Michael Myers from Halloween II, Annabelle, Pennywise from the It movie, Regan from The Exorcist, Stripe from Gremlins, Sam from Trick 'r Treat, Chucky from Child's Play 2 and Tiffany from Bride of Chucky. Seems like the theme of Series 1 was dolls since there three of them. I'm hoping to find Tiny Nightmares Series 2 and 3 at the local Dollar Tree for next year but I'm not holding my breath.

Countdown to Halloween 2026 Day 13: Western Legends as Classic Monsters

For this week's Halloween-themed Toy Tuesday post, I asked my friend, Grok, what if Clint Eastwood was a Dracula action figure. I thought the results were pretty decent for he does look like the actor. I thought the cape over the long coat was funny.

I also asked Grok to create a John Wayne as Frankenstein's Monster action figure. I like the addition of the cowboy hat, clothing and a gun in a holster. Unfortunately, he lost a lot of Duke's facial features.

Toy Tuesday: Funko Kinder Joy Stranger Things Eleven in Hospital Gown

The local stores still have the Funko Kinder Joy Stranger Things eggs in stock. I picked up two of them a few weeks ago and got Lucas the basketball player again plus Eleven in hospital gown, which I didn't have. This series doesn't seem as popular as the Harry Potter series maybe because everybody keeps getting a Demogorgon.

Superhero Sunday: Captain Bluebird Action Figure

I consider this post a follow up to yesterday's post since it features Captain Bluebird as an action figure. I still think the jetpack is overkill, but I do like the wings (shame that Meta AI cut the tips off).

Toy Tuesday: Captain Bluebird Galactic Quest Game

I asked Grok to create a board game based on Moongem Comics. The AI came up with a science fiction board game called Captain Bluebird Galactic Quest.

The miniature figures used in the game include Captain Bluebird, Shadow Avenger and Doctor Moongem (he's a mad scientist here instead of a superhero). You can tell the differences between the figures in the two pictures (I like the ones from the first picture).

Captain Bluebird Galactic Quest is an interesting board game but not exaxtly what I was exptecting.

Monster Monday: Marhtoo the Flame Fiend Action Figure

I created Marhtoo with HeroMachine this past Saturday night for the fun of it. He was originally intended to be just a generic monster for Moongem Comics. I kind of like how he turned out with the yellow fur patches on his feet to match his yellow goatee, teeth, eyes and ram horns (yes, his skin is orange).

Marhtoo the Flame Fiend Created with HeroMachine

Meta AI turned him into Marhtoo the Flame Fiend, which gives him a demon vibe.

Meta AI also gave him a little interesting bio on the back of his card. Not only was he born in the molten core of the Ember Rift but he now guards the Power Gems in the hidden Gem Caves.

What I also find interesting is that Meta AI created other figures in this toy series including Zorra the Star Witch, Kragg Rockgoblin, Nova Ninja and Captain Quasar. Sounds like a good lineup for a gold old fashioned Saturday morning cartoon series.

Toy Tuesday: Doc Spider Action Figure

Many moons ago, I created Doc Spider for Moongem Comics. I used HeroMachine to create his basic costume. Originally, he was going to be a masked pulp vigilante like the Executioner.

With a little help from Meta AI, I created this Doc Spider action figure:

Meta AI even created the packaging for the Doc Spider action figure:

Toy Tuesday: Sunbolt Action Figure

Sunbolt was created using HeroMachine and will be an interesting addition to Moongem Comics.

I decided to turn him into an action figure by using Meta AI and here are the results:

I really like the nickname he was given. The Solar Speedster has a pretty cool ring to it.

Science Fiction Saturday: Lonja from Jakbat

Many moons ago, I created Lonja with the help of HeroMachine. I really didn't do much with her other than put her on my Moongem website. I forgot about her and never did a background story for her. The alien woman was never intended to be a character for Moongem Comics but I might have to change that.

Lonja from Jakbat Created with HeroMachine

Yesterday, I was playing around with Grok and created two action figures. The first one looks more like a figurine while the second one is a retro action figure. I like the first one better of the two.

Toy Tuesday: Dolly Parton Hot Wheels Batmobile

Hot Wheels really need to make this Dolly Parton Batmobile but with her behind the wheel and Batman sitting in the passenger seat:

Toy Tuesday: Shadow Avenger Action Figure

Many moons ago, I created Shadow Avenger for Moongem Comics. My first attempt at drawing him was done by tracing a superhero figure from a coloring book. My second attempt was created by using the original HeroMachine (see photo #1 below). I recently created an action figure of Shadow Avenger thanks to Meta AI (see photo #2). Now if I had a 3D printer to make this action figure a reality.

Toy Tuesday: Moongem Comics Drawn on Etch N Sketch

Grok Imagine did a cool job creating a Moongem Comics logo on an Etch N Sketch. I used to have the toy when I was growing up but all I could draw was squares.

Toy Tuesday: Moongem Comics Colorforms

Mr. and Mrs. Moongem are celebrating Moongem Comics 20th anniversary by giving us a look at their Colorforms prototype. The toy never went into production thanks to the Martians destroying the factory. Luckily, no lives were lost during that short-lived invasion. The Colorforms looks pretty cool, but I do wish they would have had clothes from their secret identities and maybe a Martian or two for them to fight. I'm also not sure how their capes work since you can't put them on their backs.

Toy Tuesday: Funko Kinder Joy Stranger Things Demogorgon Zipper Clip

I picked up four more of the Funko Kinder Joy Stranger Things eggs a few weeks ago. The only new one I got was this Demogorgon zipper Clip. A lot of people of calling it a paperclip because of the flexible protuding clip sticking up out of the top. It makes a very poor paper clip and I'm not sure how well it actually works on a zipper. It can stand up on it's own and is only 1 1/2" tall.

Toy Tuesday: Hot Wheels Quick Chat 2026 Black Edition

I also picked up this Hot Wheels Quick Chat 2026 Black Edition last Tuesday at the local Walmart's. This is based on the Fisher Price Chatter toy telephone with wheels from the 1960s and 1970s (I used to have one when I was a wee lad). The normal Hot Wheels version has the red telephone while this variant has a black one. This is #3 in the Mattel subset and #49 in the mainline series.
