FLASHBACK: HOARD WORLD GARDEN PARTY featuring PREDATOR, ZODAC, GREEN ARROW, CAMILLA THE CHICKEN(S), JUDGE DREDD, MAX LEGGE AND MORE!




Some time ago now (October 2012, to be precise), we had some very special guest Hoard Worlders in the sunny backyard of Hoard World's previous Earth Headquarters.



MAX LEGGE & KEIRA SWAIN.

Before we knew it, a Hoard World Garden Party had begun. These impromptu events are rarely planned ahead of time, and it's even rarer for them to be captured by those soul-stealing digital camera machines, so it's quite a coup that these pics even exist! And, since Hoard World HQ relocated, we no longer have a backyard, so this may never happen again! 

Here's what went down. 86% of these photos were taken by Max Legge. 100% of these photos were taken outside.

QUICK UPDATE: GUEST SPOT AT POE GHOSTAL.COM - SPIRIT OF HORDAK REVIEW - HOARDSTAGRAM - VALE LOU SCHEIMER



It's been a pretty tumultuous time over here on Hoard World of late. The last six weeks or so have been spent attempting the biggest HQ move of your pal Hoardax's entire six millennium lifespan! Have you ever tried moving planets before? Intergalactic relocation is a real beast! I almost passed away on several occasions. I wish I was joking.

Let this be a lesson to all of you, but especially me: DON'T HOARD.

Meanwhile, I managed to pen a guest review, that was literally three of your human months in the making, over at PoeGhostal.com. It may have felt like a three month wait to Poe, but as we will endeavour to explain in a future blog entry, time works differently for Hoardax. In the time it takes most people to live their entire existences, I have only eaten a baloney sandwich, watched half an episode of Charles In Charge and had a nice lie down. More on that, another time.

If you missed this guest review, you should totally check it out.

And you can, right here at this LINK.

Whoever wins.....nobody cares.
It's just a blinking contest.
Stakes aren't very high at all.
Pretty sure the victor just gets bragging rights, a greater sense of self and $1.80.

Due to lack of a decent internet connection in the purgatory that was the last month or so, the majority of Hoard World's new content has been via The Hoardstagram. You should take a look at that as well.

You don't wanna miss out on the time my friend Batros-Batros Ghali was arrested by Eternian Palace Guards for impersonating Batman in an area where Cosplay is banned. 

This might look amusing to you, but you didn't have to bail him out at 3am on a school night.

Anyway, that's it from me, for now. I hope to return you to the regularly unscheduled Hoard World that you've come to know and love, sooner rather than never.

Hope you've all been keeping well.

YR PAL,

HOARDAX.

RIP LOU SCHEIMER 1928-2013

SPOTLIGHT ON: WOTU - WRESTLERS OF THE UNIVERSE: DEAD DIEBIA$E, MONEYBASH, MERMANIAC & THE 2-BADDERS: NUKE & CLUTCH by GOODLEG TOYS


What have we here? It looks like a Wrestlers Of The Universe Bootleg!

About 3 months ago, your old pal Hoardax initiated contact with some of his favourite Art Toy creators, Luke Toywalker, Ryan Hall and Eric Nilla. I asked them if they'd be interested in having their work "spotlighted" right here on Hoard World, and they were all nice enough to agree. They immediately sent me a bunch of info and were incredibly friendly and helpful. Brimming with earnest excitement and a sense of purpose, I took a stack of photos of their stuff and then.....ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HAPPENED!

Like, for ages.

Until right now.

I'm not going to delve any further into my time management skills (should I ever get around to posting ROUND 2 of the perennial favourite that is the ASK HOARDAX segment, the definitive origin of that particular anomaly will rear its untimely head), but I would like to express my regrets at not getting this stuff out a lot sooner.

Let's begin with part one of the trilogy: WRESTLERS OF THE UNIVERSE!

The header card for WotU is by exceptionally talented artist Ralph Niese.

EXCLUSIVE REVEAL: GENERAL SKALE & DELGON FROM THE SLIMES WAVE 2 by RAMPAGEO INDUSTRIES!

General Skale from Slimes Wave 2
If you know Hoardax, then you'll know that he likes slime. He does have a plastic slime-filled heart after all.

So, it should be no surprise to you Hoard Worlders at home, that he is incredibly proud to share with you this exclusive reveal from our good friends over at Doom Kick!

The next release in The Exciting World of Jalldoon: Slimes from Rampageo Industries is right around the corner!

This release consists of four All New SLIMES, as well as an all new full size magnet articulated figure and a few surprises!

We previously covered the first series of Rampageo Industries' Slimes right HERE.

Following Preternia.com's earlier reveals of Princess Ikari and King Valdar, HOARD WORLD is exclusively previewing the next two evil characters from this brand new wave. The fearsome General Skale and the plague-bringing Delgon (brother of wave 1's Jelgon) are ready to bring ruin to the forces of good!

Get on it.

GUEST SPOTS AT THE EPIC REVIEW: RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD'S TARMAN, MARVEL ZOMBIES' COLONEL AMERICA & ZOMBIE SUPERMAN?


Late last month, your old pal Hoardax did a series of zombie-based guest spots for The Epic Review's Resident Evil Anniversary Week. For those of you who missed the constant plugs for these over at the Hoard World Facey B, here's a blog based summary. I love clip shows.


You can read the spotlight on the 2012 Amok Time Toys release of the Tarman figure from Return of the Living Dead right here.

Please note that for the duration of these guest "reviews" I thought it was hilarious to refer to eBay as "Michael eBay." Oh what fun!


Most of us are well aware that due to a series of convenient yet unfortunate circumstances, Cap is a Man Out Of Time. But what about a Captain America review that's also been chronologically displaced?

Travel all the way back to the year 2007 AD and pretend that Diamond Select's Marvel Zombies Colonel America only just came out RIGHT HERE.



Lastly, but certainly not leastly, I took a brief look at this eBay purchased Superman Figure anomaly and incongruously likened his existence to Clive Barker's Hellraiser.


You can read all about the mysterious "Zombie Superman" right HERE.

And that's it!

Please enjoy responsibly.

yr pal,

Hoardax.
