We’ve seen the Berserker and Royce, and now here’s the Falconer. Hot Toys has heard the initial outcry from fans, and have also announced that they will include the Falconer’s falcon as an accessory.

Hot Toys Announces Royce from Predators
I first saw Royce when Hot Toys posted some pics from Tokyo Toy Fair. He comes with an impressive array of clothing and accessories, but I think the expression is a bit too Pianist and not enough Predators.
World War Robot Portable Noir de Plume on Sale 8/19
I still have a guest review of the WWRp Nom de Plume to get published (sorry Ebon!) I missed picking one up of the Noms when the 2010 3A memberships were on sale, so I will probably try to pick up at least one of the Noir de Plumes that will go on sale later today.
For the time zone challenged, 9AM on Friday in Hong Kong is 9PM EST / 6PM PST on Thursday in the United States.
WWRp Noir de Plume is going to be on sale at 20 of August, 9-00 AM Hong-Kong time only at www.bambalandstore.com , price – 40$ + 15$ for EMS shipping, so this time shipping isn’t included. You can buy maximum two and we haven’t heard yet whether combined shipping will be possible.
AFP Ask Matty Round-Up for 8/17/10
I should know this by now, but Matty can be very strict when it comes to deadlines, even when those deadlines fall on the Sunday the weekend after Comic-Con when we’re still recovering. In other words, we missed the submission deadline for questions this installment – and judging from what I’m seeing for round-up links, so did a few other folks.
Luckily, we had a round of answers from a previous installment that we missed. Unluckily, this was from the weeks leading up to San Diego Comic-Con, so there’s a bit of a time warp effect…
1) The carded pics of DC Universe Classics Wave 14 are a lot of fun – I love Ultra-Humanite’s head peeking out of Hourman’s package, and the placement of stickers that allows that. Quick question on the names you put on the packages – we know you said that the Obsidian name is held by another company now, but we’re still curious why you went with Green Lantern instead of Alan Scott? John Stewart and Katma Tui had their names on the package.
At the end of the day, DC Comics lets us know what name to use on package. Sometimes, like with Obsidian, a name may not be available for a toy (if another company owns the trademark, for example) and we will work with DC on an alternative name.
Art Asylum and Diamond Select Toys Shipping Update 8/10
Don’t be fooled by the link in Diamond’s shipping update for Star Trek TOS Series 5 – the lineup was changed to Kirk in his green dress shirt, a reissue of Scotty, and a Romulan. The DST website still shows short-sleeved McCoy, Nurse Chapel, Yeoman Rand, and Kirk – the only survivor of this particular away party. The other three are still in limbo.
And, if you missed the latest Ask DST update, Chuck reveals that the next Marvel Select figure will be Gambit.
