Proof that this so-called toy review website inserts their socio-political BS whenever possible. I don't care about someone's politics or beliefs. These people have one job - review toys and gauge if these toys are worth your money. Us normies aren't interested why we shouldn't vote for Trump nor care about some character who is "amazing" for being "diverse." As a long-time fan of that site, I say better look for other reviewers instead who aren't trying to lecture their audience.
Oafe.net, or Online Action Figure Entertainment, is a website I ran across when I was browsing for reviews pertaining to a certain toy. What a nice find!
Oafe.net is a conglomeration of reviewers who critique a wide variety of toys, which are mostly action figures. Categories of toys include Transformers, Star Wars, Marvel, NECA, McFarlene Toys, GI Joe, and much more.
The articles are observant, fun, and reflect a passion for toys. It's not a wholly professional, out-for-profit medium -- but if you want a perspective from average joes who love their toys, then these guys may be what you're looking for.
Other sections of the website include "Points of Articulation," which is like an editorial of sorts that publishes articles on a wide variety of toy related topics, whether its expressing opinions on a particular toy line or the efforts of a manufacturer. There is also a blog, forums, and link section which can lead you to toy retailer websites, manufacturer websites, and more. Finally, you have a section of the sight dedicated to customized toys, with short descriptions and photos.
Reading reviews on a toy you're looking to buy, particularly one you can't observe in person, is important before investing your money. Showroom photos are far from adequate when judging a toy. Thanks to oafe.net, you may be able to find a review on a particular toy you're interested in to stay ahead of the game and spend your wealth wisely.
I play it safe and read multiple reviews when it comes to toys, but if you want to include a particular source in your research, then oafe.net is a safe bet.
I used to read some of their unbiased toy reviews but take a look at some of their toy reviews for Admiral Holdo / Rose Tico lately, they ridicule people who didn't like TLJ or TFA movies and its boring characters, indirectly calling men as man-babies / sexists for not liking it. It's like they've became SJWs themselves without even realizing it since they believe they're the best toy reviewers on earth. Update as of 4/27/25: So I visited OAFE once again to see if they still have SJW-related posts. Lo and behold: http://www.oafe.net/articulation/2311.php So they decide to boycott Jazwares (a toy company) just because they're pro-Israel yet they still buy toys from Hasbro despite the fact that the latter treated their employees as easily-expendable people (mass lay-offs before Christmas) and promoted their thankfully short-lived "no-plastic" packaging for useless "environmental points" despite the fact that their toys are made of plastic to begin with. So the staff at OAFE. Net are not only trying to act holier-than-thou, they are hypocritical as well. Just as if they couldn't go any lower...
