    Review: Fortnite Victory Royale Series Potassius Peels

    Hasbro seems to not have any luck with licensed properties that are not Marvel or Star Wars. When the 1:12 scale Fortnite went from Jazwares to Hasbro, and initially the line seemed to have legs. They got out some really nice-looking figures and it seemed to be doing better than their Overwatch line from 2019. Then, they…

    Review: Fortnite Victory Royale Series Menace (Undefeated)

    Hasbro is still churning out figures in its Fortnite Victory Royale series, though they do it with little fanfare. The last time anything was announced was back in September during PulseCon, though much of the reveals were either already in stores or listed to release soon after. During the live stream, they announced another figure…

    Review: Fortnite Victory Royale Series Lexa (Mechafusion)

    Fortnite draws from many styles in its character designs. When they brought in anime characters such as Naruto and Goku the character models were cell-shaded and looked more cartoony than the regular characters. Eventually Epic created original characters in this style. I wondered how Hasbro would go about making a figure based on one of…

    Review: Fortnite Victory Royale Series Ragsy

    With many skins coming out almost weekly in the game, Fortnite occasionally takes an old skin and changes it to make a new one. These are not just colour swaps; they change up the way the character looks but leave enough of the same to be recognizable. That is what they did for the Ragsy…

    Review: Fortnite Victory Royale Series Brutus (Ghost)

    In season 2, Fortnite introduced factions. There was the Shadow faction, in which the characters wore black or darker colours than their default skin and The Ghost faction, in which they wore white or lighter colours. Hasbro has given us a new character in their Ghost outfit, Brutus. Brutus first appeared in the Fortnite game…

    Review: Fortnite Victory Royale Series Rippley

    With the Fortnite license, Hasbro has a whole range of unique-looking characters to choose from. There are plenty of human-looking characters they could pick from, which would minimize the need for new tooling for figures, but Hasbro is not afraid to delve into the bizarre. With characters like Rippley, the Victory Royale Series showcases some…

    Review: Fortnite Victory Royale Series Bushranger

    Hasbro has not shied away from some of the weirder-looking Fortnite characters to include in their Victory Royale. The second series of the line included Bushranger, a character that was voted for in a Community Choice poll. Let’s take a look at this character. Bushranger first appeared in the item shop in Chapter 2 Season…

    Review: Fortnite Victory Royale Series Meowcles (Shadow)

    As I said in my last Fortnite Victory Royale Series review, the in game skins can have cosmetic changes that are unlocked as you do certain tasks in the game. One such mechanic was the Ghost and Shadow faction skins in Chapter 2. Doing so would unlock a white/lighter colour (Ghost) or a black, darker…

    Double Review: Fortnite Victory Royale Series Chaos Agent and Chaos Double Agent

    Fortnite is known for the various “Outfits” (character skins) you can unlock/buy in the game. While there are many skins from other properties, there are plenty that is Epic’s own creation. Some of these have cosmetic changes you can unlock. Sometimes the skin will be recoloured and released as a new character. This is the…

    Review: Fortnite Victory Royale Series TNTina with Glider (plus Arcade Collection Weapons pack)

    Hasbro is putting out new Fortnite Victory Royale items at a leisurely pace, but they are coming out. So far, they are mostly avoiding figures already released by Jazwares (with the only direct copy being The Scientist) and providing things that Jazwares didn’t put out for its 1:12 line; gliders and weapons packs. While Hasbro…
