Mighty Muggs, Transform and Roll Out!

Defying and redefining the very core values of what is appealing about robots, Optimus Prime, Megatron, Soundwave and Bumblebee are getting the chunky, chubby Mighty Muggs treatment. No, they don’t transform, and no, they’re not all sexy and [...]

Showing the cooler side of Hasbro are the new series of Star Wars Mighty Muggs. This run is having a go at the Clone Wars Animated characters. The Count Dooku and Asajj Ventress figures look awesome and Dooku even comes with electric Sith doom hand powers. Awesome. Anakin looks pretty [...]
