News – DC Unlimited Injustice Green Lantern Figure Revealed

Another figure revealed today is the upcoming Injustice Green Lantern figure that’s going to be a part of the DC Comics Unlimited toy line from Mattel. It looks like it fits in with the other Injustice figures currently out now, but instead of being based on the regular version of Green Lantern from the game, it looks like it’s based on his “Regime” alternate costume in the game.

News – Batman Unlimited Beware the Batman Figure Revealed

An image has been circulating the web today of the upcoming Beware the Batman 6″ figure set to be released in the Batman Unlimited toy line from Mattel. It’s hyper stylized to match the show, and more or less has the same kind of articulation we’ve come to expect from DCUC figures.

News – 2013 SDCC DC Collectibles Arkham City Hugo Strange Figure Revealed

Ever since the Arkham City toy line was announced, fans have clamored for a figure of Hugo Strange. He’s the penultimate villain of the game (mostly), so I would think he deserves a figure. Well it seems DC Collectibles agrees, and they’re releasing him as a 2013 San Diego Comic-Con exclusive. This may cause some fans to groan, since it’s not always the easiest thing to get a hold of SDCC exclusives if you don’t go to the show, but I’m sure the figure will find its way to fans that want it. This is definitely better than them not releasing the figure at all, and I can understand the decision to make Hugo Strange a 2013 San Diego Comic-Con exclusive.

News – New DC Collectibles Arkham Asylum Bane Figure, Arkham Origins Figures and more Revealed!

I know it’s been a couple of days since the reveal of the upcoming DC Collectibles Batman: Arkham Origins figures, but they just revealed a brand new Arkham Asylum Bane figure to be released, so I thought I’d put everything in this one post! Yes that’s right, good news for Arkham Asylum Bane fans. Many fans have lamented that figure, because for the longest time he’s been extremely expensive on the secondary market. Heck, I even sold mine a couple of months back, just in case DC Collectibles decided to make a new one. I guess I was right! So for those who missed out on him, you get another (better) chance. Bane will be in a two-pack with Arkham Asylum Batman later this year, and will be taller, and have lots more articulation than before.

News – 2013 SDCC Exclusive MOTUC Mini He-Man & Skeletor Figures Revealed

Now this is a cool bit of news. Finishing up Mattel’s week long 2013 San Diego Comic-Con reveals, we conclude with something a lot of fans might find familiar. Mattel is releasing a 2 pack of stylized mini figures of He-Man and Skeletor, based on their designs from the iPhone game that came out last year. Fans will notice that these figures look very reminiscent of the “Mini Masters” that the Four Horsemen sculpted and had presented on display at conventions this past year. They were never something Mattel was going to for sure release, just one of those things the Four Horsemen love doing on their own to gauge interest.

If I didn’t know any better, I’d swear that the character designs for the iPhone game were purposefully modeled after those Mini Masters, so Mattel would have a viable excuse to release them. They don’t look exactly like those sculpts, but they’re close enough to make the comparison for sure.

News – Star Wars the Black Series Boba Fett 2013 SDCC Exclusive Revealed

USA Today got the exclusive for this, so thanks to them for breaking the story. We now have a fantastic look at the fully revealed 2013 San Diego Comic-Con exclusive Star Wars the Black Series Boba Fett with Han Solo in carbonite. It will be sold at the Hasbro booth at San Diego Comic Con from July 18th to 21st, and it will cost $44.99. Yeah, I know, that’s a pretty big price for a 6″ figure, even with all the accessories he comes with, and considering the retail figures will only cost about $20.

And speaking of, now is a good time to point out that Boba Fett himself is not the exclusive. Before fans get up in arms, there will be a retail version of Boba Fett released in the 6″ scale in The Black Series. The part that makes this set unique and exclusive is that picking him up at 2013 San Diego Comic-Con is the only way to get Han Solo in carbonite. I know what you’re gonna say “that still sucks!”, and I completely agree. But I’m sure he’ll be available after the show on Hasbro Toy Shop, but who knows how easy it will be to get him. Anyway, I digress.

News – The Mandarin Iron Man 3 Marvel Legends 6″ Movie Figure Revealed!

Thanks to io9 for getting this exclusive and breaking the news, but yes you read right, Hasbro is releasing a 6″ movie figure of Sir Ben Kingsley as The Mandarin from Iron Man 3! The figure is set to release this Fall, as part of the Iron Man Legends series currently put out by Hasbro. It’s the same series in the Iron Monger Build-A-Figure line, though since when this figure gets released all the pieces to build Iron Monger will have already been put out, I don’t know if he’ll come with a BAF piece or what they’re planning to do. Stay tuned here for any updates on that.

You can buy all the current Iron Man Legends figures (sans The Mandarin) at BigBadToyStore right now!
