Marvel Universe 2010 Wave 2

Marvel Universe 2010 Wave 2 (1024x733).jpg

I’ve been a fan of the Marvel Universe line since it first debuted last year, and have been very pleased to see the line get better with each successive wave of figures.  The second wave of 2010 is no exception – I think this is the best wave to hit yet, so I was pretty psyched when our good friends at Hasbro sent over a set of figures for us to review.  Plus, our good fortune can also be your good fortune – our Free Stuff giveaway in March will include some of these figures too (read on for more info).

Hot Toys Battle Damaged Iron Man Mark III Final Product Pic

I missed this pic of the final Hot Toys Battle Damaged Iron Man Mark III a couple of weeks ago when gearing up for Toy Fair. Since I missed my shot at the original Mark III armor, this will be the Hot Toys Iron Man that goes into my collection.

I’ll try to remain strong, but as soon as Hot Toys starts making armors from Iron Man 2, I’ll probably cave. Speaking of which, they are teasing a new DX announcement coming soon on their Facebook page. I’m wondering if it’ll be an Iron Man 2 figure.

The Iron Man (Mark III) collectible figure arrives again, this time in his Battle Damaged Version!

This latest upgraded version is highly detailed and fully deployed, which would bring you with more unexpected surprise!

Take a look at the backstage first! He will be available in Toy Hunters after Chinese New Year!

Hot Toys Terminator 2 Sarah Connor New Head Sculpt Pics

I wasn’t sure with the timing of Sideshow’s release of press pics of the Hot Toys Terminator 2 Sarah Connor from and Hot Toys saying they’d be showing pics of a “newly polished” head sculpt for her whether we’d be covering the same ground again.  Well, I needn’t have thought too hard about it.  Hot Toys released three new pictures with closeups of the revamped Sarah Connor head.  Looks much better to me.

Sarah Connor is unveiled!

Amid the applause on the Saran Connor collectible after teaser announcement, she is going to be unveiled now in high anticipation!

Taking off her sunglasses, the highly detailed head sculpt is revealed. The greatest partners Yulli and JC have specially polished it so as to showcase a more real-like version to fans now! Frowned, tight-lipped, together with the expression seen from her eyes, she is in the mood to spend her life to protect her son!

What’s worth mentioning is the newly developed rubber arm which is specially sculpted with distinct lines and enhanced muscularity, reinforcing her fierceness and heroine image.

What’s more, the detailed hair sculpture with fringes and middle part of hair attached with ponytail. Two fringes are available at your choice for matching with the cap. Full military gear is also equipped with weapons and accessories.

The 1/6th scale Sarah Connor collectible figure from the Terminator 2: Judgment Day movie is available for pre-order now!
