Hot Toys Teases The Dark Knight Rises Catwoman and Quarter Scale Batman

A couple of Hot Toys quickies tonight. First up, a couple of teases from The Dark Knight Rises. I’m sure Anne Hathaway got more than a few engines revving when she hopped on the Bat Pod. As the tease was double-billed as Catwoman and Selina Kyle, I’m wondering if we won’t see more than the skin-tight cat suit for this figure – would Hot Toys go so far as to give us a French maid’s uniform?

Interesting for Hot Toys to be going into the 1/4 scale size. I’d expect this Batman to have more detail and more accessories, but am curious as to what they will do with the articulation in the larger size. We’ll stay tuned to news from Ani-Com Hong Kong this weekend, where they will be revealing both figures. Wish I could be there!

ThreeA Toys Halo Figures On Sale Next Week

I love it when I happen to stay up late and catch a new 3A Toys reveal. I was blown away by the Halo Commander Carter at San Diego Comic-Con and am psyched to see it come up for order so soon afterwards.

How long we’ll be waiting for them to ship is another matter entirely. 😉

For those of you who are used to buying McFarlane Halo figures, these might come with a little sticker shock at $200, but I think they’ll blow you away. Fully articulated, individual fingers? Fiber optic lighting? Magnetic attachment points for weapons? Awesome. I’m psyched for the 3AA exclusive figure and think that might be the version I pick up.

These should be going on sale at Bambaland Store at 6PM PST on August 31.

Hot Toys Finally Reveals The Dark Knight Rises Bane and Camo Tumbler

I’ve been waiting for Hot Toys to reveal their version of Bane, and with The Dark Knight Rises opening on July 20, they waited almost until the last moment. Judging by the coincidental reveal of the Camouflaged Tumbler, I guess Bane is going to have a Batmobile to call his own.

Don’t have your tickets yet? You can pre-order The Dark Knight Rises tickets on Fandango. I’m traveling this week, so I probably won’t get to see this until the end of the weekend. No spoilers! 😀

Hasbro revealed two more Marvel Legends figures from the first wave planned for 2013. If you are not familiar with Hit-Monkey, he was introduced by Daniel Way during his Deadpool run, and had a one-shot and 3-issue limited series around the same time a couple years back. Savage She-Hulk (the Lyra version) will be a swap-out for Red She-Hulk.

You can see the other 2013 wave 1 figures here:

Pop Culture Shock Mortal Kombat Life Size Busts – the Eyes Have It

Nothing says FLAWLESS VICTORY like a life size bust of Mortal Kombat’s Sub Zero. I can see putting this near my front door to scare the crap out of trick or treaters this Halloween. There will be three versions – a standard version with painted eyes, a limited PERS-like poseable eyes version for a 200-piece Sideshow exclusive, and Pop Culture Shock’s own 50-piece exclusive with light-up eyes.

Pop Culture Shock’s Jerry Macaluso has been sculpting some very provocative Darkstalkers and Street Fighter mixed media statues, so I can only imagine what he’ll do with a *life size* bust of Sonya Blade. GET OVER HERE!
