Christmas is almost here, and the G3eks team is putting together their wish list of the toy-based comic book titles that mattered to them and checking it twice. From Captain Action to Secret Wars, Micronauts to Masters of the Universe, G.I. Joe to Transformers, and lots more titles and toy lines in-between, we’re looking at the toy series that made the Nice List and those on the Naughty List. What were your favorites? Did the comic book storylines match up to your imagination? Do toys still play a role in your favorite comic book stories today? (Runtime 01:01:49)
