Sideshow Collectibles has a couple of the upcoming Hot Toys figures available for pre-order – Chris Taylor, Charlie Sheen’s character in Platoon, and Bruce Lee from Enter the Dragon. I might spring for the Sideshow exclusive version of Bruce Lee, since it comes with an extra body and stand for just $20 more. It’s a DX, so with the extra body, you can have two complete figures since there’s the extra head, many sets of hands, and multiple outfits included already.

When we first saw that Hasbro would be making a Samuel L. Jackson-based Nick Fury for it’s 3.75-inch Iron Man 2 line, I wasn’t sure how it was going to make it to retail. So I was pleasantly surprised to ole Nick in an exclusive Toys R Us boxed set entitled Fury of Combat on the shelves this week.

By Ron, on August 28th, 2010 Graphitti Designs has a few of the SDCC DC Direct exclusives in stock at their original prices. So if you’ve been looking at the aftermarket, try here first. If I get really motivated, I might pick up a Batman to try to replicate the super-articulated Arkham Asylum Batman custom that Prodigy put together.
After the Con was over, we found ourselves with a very limited quantity of these cool (and desirable) figures remaining. Here’s your chance to purchase some of these figures at the original $20.00 SRP.
In order to get these into the hands of as many different people as possible, sales are limited to two (2) each of each of the remaining figures.

By Ron, on August 25th, 2010 Ebonhorn was kind enough to send me some pictures and a review of the ThreeA Toys Nom de Plume, which was an exclusive figure for people who purchased the ThreeA 2010 Membership. He’s been waiting patiently for me to publish it since before San Diego Comic-Con, and is bummed that Pabs, the slowest reviewer in the world, was able to publish pics of his Blanc de Plume before I could post this. Sorry and thanks, Ebon!
A few months ago, a picture surfaced showing off several unpainted 1/12 scale WWRp robots from ThreeA Toys. However, something else caught every one’s attention – a 1/12 scale human body. The fan base went crazy wondering what it could be. It was not long before our questions were answered – ThreeA had developed a 1/12 scale version of their 1/6 scale figure body. In keeping with tradition, the first 1/12 scale human figure would be Nom de Plume, the very figure that the ThreeA logo invokes. Three A announced that people who bought the ThreeA 2010 membership would receive Nom de Plume as an exclusive surprise. I missed out on the membership but had a chance to get him and did. The big question – does he match up with the high expectations set by the 1/6 scale figures? The quick answer – he certainly does.

By Ron, on August 24th, 2010 It’s nice to see Mattel’s event exclusive WWE figures extend beyond the basic series, as I’m really only interested in the figures with the Elite style articulation. It’s also pretty cool that Mattel can turn around a series with event-specific decos after only a few months. WrestleMania 27 took place at the start of April.

By Ron, on August 23rd, 2010 Kmart jumps on board with Mattel’s WWE Legends line with the Hall of Fame assortment, which is essentially Legends Series 1 minus the Road Warriors plus Funk and Snuka from Series 2. Of course, if the packaging is different, then you might have some mint on card collectors out looking for these guys too.
I’ve already picked up all of Series 1 with the exception of Dusty Rhodes (I was never a big fan), and Funk was a little before my time. But Snuka was always entertaining, so I’ll probably still stop by to see if I can pick one up.

By Ron, on August 21st, 2010 In case you missed them this week, VeeBee posted a series of First Looks at the Fwoosh for four of the figures from DC Universe Classics Wave 14 and the Wal-Mart exclusive Green Lantern’s Light 5-pack. I’ll post a few of the pics here, but you really should check out those First Looks. Let’s start off with the original boy who lived.
Kamandi
  
So, I am on cloud nine about FINALLY having this figure, and I know I have not been waiting as long as some who read the original issues as they were published. So, if you actually don’t like Kamandi – neener-neener! We have a Kamandi figure!!! If you don’t know about him – do some reading! And if you still aren’t convinced, you have to get him to build your Humanite.
