Hard to believe, but Cartoon Network has been running their “Adult Swim” lineup for 10 years now. In our roundtable, we discuss the best, the worst and the just plain weirdest shows that have run during the night time hours and its evolution from a once a week special to a nightly ritual.

In addition, aDam will talk about The Secret Circle, Genius loses his mind over Guardian Heroes, and Crazy takes his Toy Soldiers to war.

While the 3DS was cleaning up at Tokyo Game Show, Sony announced that the PS Vita would be region-free — unlike its Nintendo competitor. The war is heating up! Who will win the holiday season this year? Will it be enough to turn things around for Sony? Sean and Vinnk reflect on the final two public days of Tokyo Game Show, if mobile devices and “the cloud” are really the future of the gaming industry and the current oneupsmanship between Nintendo and Sony is really all for naught.

Better late than never with this episode of KEEP PLAYING: Rewind, but totally worth it as I delve into the first part of the rich vampire-slaying history of the Belmont Clan (with a little bit of help) in my Castlevania 25th Anniversary Tribute!

Check back next week for Part 2!

It looks like one of the Transformers designers from TakaraTomy dropped a bombshell on twitter. While showing some images of the new MP10 Optimus Prime figure, Shogo Hasui also posted a picture of a rough Masterpiece Ultra Magnus. The image shown is a very rough concept of slapping armor onto the latest version of the Masterpiece Optimus Prime mold. Obviously, this is very rough, but it sure looks like it has potential.

Marvel Minimates Herlads of Galactus box set

From ArtAsylum’s blog:

A few months back, Toys “R” Us hosted a poll to choose who would be in their exclusive four-pack of Marvel Minimates spotlighting Galactus and his Heralds. And we are now pleased to reveal the lineup! Nova, Morg, Terrax and Galactus himself will be in the 4-pack, and each will be tricked out to the max. Nova will have a flaming flight base that connects to her fiery hair; Morg will have an axe and a flight base; Terrax will have his axe, a rock to ride on and a clear support stand; and Galactus will come with a teeny-tiny Silver Surfer accessory that hovers above his shoulder. Diamond Select is currently looking for a way to offer the two remaining characters, Airwalker and Firelord, in the regular Minimates line, but the Heralds of Galactus Box Set will be available at Toys “R” Us this winter! All of the Minimates in the set are 2 inches tall, and have 14 points of articulation.
