Masters of the Universe Classics Count Marzo Packaged Pics

There’s been a lot of discussion about Masters of the Universe Classics Count Marzo – some of the diehard fans of the Masters of the Universe 200X line have had their emotions toyed with by his hairstyle. Is his windblown hairstyle in the style that defined 200X? That doesn’t matter much to me – I just care that it looks good and it fits in with my MOTUC collection.

I’m a little surprised that with Count Marzo, we’ve gotten to the end of the regular-sized individually carded Masters of the Universe Classics figures that Mattel revealed at Toy Fair. Marzo is the Club Eternia figure this upcoming July. We’ve yet to see carded shots of the oversized figures, Tytus and Gy-Gor, but it feels like we ought to be getting a few new reveals for MOTUC soon. I wonder if we’ll have to wait for San Diego Comic-Con, though.

Marzo is ready to go!

Check it out, just got in carded samples of the Count!

DC Universe Classics Wal-Mart Wave 5 on MattyCollector.com Delayed to June

Back in March, Mattel had announced that the Wal-Mart exclusive DC Universe Classics Wave 5 would be available for sale on MattyCollector.com on the May sales date. (See the original announcement below.)

Today they announced on their Facebook page that this would now happen in June.

DCUC Fans, wanted to let you know that due to a logistics issue, the sale of Wave 5 is moving to our June 15th sale.

June 15 will be a crazy sales date, with DCUC Wave 5 added to a line-up that already has the Masters of the Universe Classics Keldor and She-Ra figures.

DCU Wave 5 Is Alive!

DCU Fans,

Back in 2008, we released Wave 5, which was an instant success and subsequently pretty hard to find. If you missed your chance, mark May 17th on your calendar, because Wave 5 is coming back!

This release is identical to the one in 2008 − same package, same decos, not a single change to the figures. Like all our boxed sets, these are individually carded figures packed into a single box. The set has the five figures you need to build a 9” Collect and Connect™ Metallo figure. Take a look inside and you’ll find these classic characters ready to rock your collection:

  • Eradicator
  • Black Lightning
  • Amazo
  • The Riddler
  • The Atom

Don’t want to miss your shot at this fan-favorite? If you’re not registered yet for emails, and I’ll send you a reminder. You can also follow me on Twitter where I post reminders.

Marvel Select Magneto Prototype Pics

Here’s a couple of protoype pics, unpainted and painted,  from the Art Asylum blog of the upcoming Marvel Select Magneto. I first saw this figure at Toy Fair – he’ll come with both interchangeable heads, with and without his helmet.

Because He’s EVIL

Really, it explains everything about this newest addition to the Marvel Select line.  Why does he look like he’s about to destroy everyone? Why is he standing over the wreckage of the X-Mansion?  Why does he have such an angry look?  Why is his back turned when clearly someone is trapped in the rubble?  The answer to all of these questions is “Because he’s EVIL”  Well, truth be told, the whole arm-of-Colossus thing on the base is because yours truly is a little whcked in the head and felt like having some sick fun with the fans (I guess this means I’ll have to do a Colossus Select figure as a future make-good, huh?).  The Master of Magnetism is sculpted by Gabriel Marquez and painted by Ed Wires.

NECA Announces Jonah Hex Props and Figures

My first exposure to comics was through my uncle’s pile of DC comics. He mostly read three titles: Justice League of America, House of Secrets, and Jonah Hex. I’m psyched to see Hex make his way to the big screen, and now I’ll have the chance to add him to my toy shelves. We have more pics of the NECA Jonah Hex figures from Toy Fair.

Welcome Jonah Hex

NECA shows off first figures and props from the new movie!

Josh Brolin is Jonah Hex, a scarred bounty hunter with a chance at freedom from the warrants out on him. All he has to do is bring down Quentin Turnbull (John Malkovich), who’s been planning to unleash hell on earth. Aided by the gun-toting prostitute Leila (Megan Fox), Jonah Hex sets out to secure his future and maybe just save all of ours in the process.

The film is out June 18, but you won’t have to wait nearly that long to get your hands on our first batch of goodies from Jonah Hex! NECA is proud to unveil an assortment of action figures and two movie props that are sure to start your summer blockbuster season off just right.

First up is the tomahawk hatchet that Jonah Hex uses in the movie. Our authentic replica is made of wood and metal, is 16″ in length and cast directly from a film-used prop. Obviously we don’t recommend throwing it or the hacking of anyone into tiny bits, but it certainly does look great on a shelf.

Next is the cane carried by Quentin Turnbull. Just like the one used on screen, our replica has an eagle head, is over three feet long and is made of wood and metal.

And last but not at all least, the action figures. Set to a 7″ scale, our first Jonah Hex assortment features Jonah Hex, Leila and Quentin Turnbull. Jonah comes with a pistol, his tomahawk, and a removable hat. Quentin features his cane, a pistol and removable hat and mask, and Leila comes with a pistol. That might seem like a lot of pistols, but hey, it’s a pistol-toting kind of movie.

Our line of Jonah Hex replicas and figures hits stores next month, but is available now for preorder and will also be featured on our Amazon storefront.
