Things From Another World is having its Saint Patrick’s Day sale, and they’ve got 240 items up to half off in their Toy section. They’ve got stuff from Funko, NECA, Hasbro, Mattel, Diamond Select Toys, and more. I’ve got my eye on this Hanna Barbera Space Ghost – at $10.49 it’s a steal for a six-incher. I’ll need to take a closer look to see what else there is to take home. Happy shopping!

Don’t get angry: everyone can have the luck of the Irish at TFAW! Now through March 23, you’ll save 20-50% on 1,000s of graphic novels, comics, toys, statues, and more!

However, you’ll have to move fast: our inventory of these items is extremely limited. Once you find the “gold” your collection needs, you’ll need to snap it up before someone else tries their luck!

Too Early to Predict Flash TV Figure from DC Collectibles?

DC Comics has been teasing Barry Allen’s Flash costume from its upcoming WB Flash pilot, and I’ve got to believe that DC Collectibles is working on an action figure version. With the Flash spinning off from Arrow (now in its third season), would it be too much of a gamble for DCC to start work on a figure?

While it may be premature to predict success for another Flash TV show (the Jon Wesley Shipp Flash lasted just one season), a Flash action figure could find its way into DC Collectibles’ Arrow line of figures, should the series not take off on its own. Green Arrow and Deathstroke will survive their transition from comics to small screen to action figures, and I think the Flash could too. Are you guys excited for this new version of the Flash?

Hot Toys Announces Black Widow from Captain America: The Winter Soldier

That didn’t take long – right after Hot Toys teased their upcoming Winter Soldier figures, they’ve announced their Black Widow from the upcoming Cap movie. This will be the third Black Widow from Hot Toys. The first was the long-haired Black Widow from Iron Man 2. The second was a shorter-haired but still curly version from the Avengers.

I think this straight-haired version sports the best likeness for ScarJo yet – but too close to the real thing means a somewhat vacant stare. With two previous figures, Hot Toys is keeping this basic with a dual pistols, a few sets of hands, and another pair of wrist shooters – I hope this means she’ll actually use them in this movie! You can pre-order the newest Hot Toys Black Widow at Sideshow Collectibles for $189.99.
