TOYS OF THE YEAR A round-up of Luis’ favorite toys of 2021 2021 was another atypical year of figure shopping. With the pandemic still raging and massive shipping delays, most of my toy purchasing happened over FaceTime or through exclusive retailers.
Lady Jaye
G.I. JOE CLASSIFIED Highly-detailed Hasbro figure that looks like it walked right out of the Real American Hero cartoon series. Great spear accessories, and an alternate head allows for possibility without a hat.
Beach Head
G.I. JOE CLASSIFIED One of the standout figures from the top toy line of 2021. The Target exclusive Beach Head was incredibly hard to find due to the pandemic and shipping delays. Once I had it in hand, it did not disappoint. An absolutely amazing figure. Great sculpt and costume details are a hallmark of this line, but the rarity of this figure made it my favorite of the year.
