Top Reviews for June, 2009

I know I’m a little late, but here are the top six reviews at battlegrip.com for June of 2009.

Glyos System Gobon
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Deluxe Class Sideways
World War Robot – Desert Bramble
7-11 Transformers Cups and Toys
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Deep Desert Brawl
Transformers Universe Cyclonus

Transformers Week really drew in a crowd, but I was surprised to see how many reviews from that week made it into the top six. Especially since Robot Fever Week was the first week of June and had a lot of hits.

No theme weeks planned for July, guys. I’ve got travel later this month for work and a ton of stuff to deal with now that I’m back from vacation. But maybe there will be a G.I. Joe week in August.

I’m home!

Vacation was great. I’ll start posting regular updates again on Monday. Until Monday, though, here’s another photo I took on vacation.

Spotted Online – Glyos Buildman Review

Take a peek at this Buildman review at The Dork Dimension. I love watching as others start to get into the Glyos series; hell, I’ve only been playing with these toys about four months so I’m still new to the series.

Spotted Online – Monsterforge’s Glyos Artwork

Here’s an awesome Glyos System image from Monsterforge. There’s a reason I went to Monsterforge when I started my own . . . oh, wait. That project hasn’t been officially announced yet. Well, I guess you’ll just have to look at this cool art for now.

Spotted Online – Behind the Scenes with Sucklord

I usually embed YouTube videos here but this one is a little more “adult” than I like to run here at battlegrip.com. So instead, because I do think some of you will find this interesting, I’m linking to this video of Sucklord talking about bootlegs.

Not work safe and not for kids.

Spotted Online – Glyos System Armoblaster!

Onell Design’s upcoming vinyl toy is going to be huge! And like other Glyos System toys you’re gonna be able to snap it apart and build new things. Things like this Armoblaster that was posted at the Glyos Transmission Web Log.
