Here’s the latest from DST on the Battlestar Galactica line. They’re right – old school does rule!
Everyone took a beating in the finale
Here’s the official look at the new Daybreak Cylon 2-pack. Both the ‘modern’ and ‘retro’ Cylons appear battle damaged. Naturally the modern Red Stripe took the worst of it. Old School Rules! (sorry, had to get that out). Anyway, look for it in comic shops and specialty stores early next year.
I’m pretty sure I’m in the minority, but my favorite Daredevil is the recent Hasbro Marvel Legends Daredevil, because of the combination of sculpt and articulation. But the Marvel Select DD has the best accessory out of all of them.

Straight from the comic book pages, Marvel Select Daredevil poses with the infamous stone cross! Don’t let this lawyer get away!

Directed by Zack Snyder, 300 was one of the best Hollywood movies which took 9 awards plus 27 nominations in 2007. Hot Toys is delighted to be authorized to develop a 1/6 collectible series for this blockbuster. Hot Toys’ collectors are expected to preview the first collectible in next Newsletter, please stay tuned and get latest news by following us on our Blog and Facebook page as usual.
Action Figure Express has two sets of X-Men Minimates on the way. Each set will feature four of the original X-Men, Cyclops, Jean Grey, Iceman, and Beast – in their X-Factor and first appearance costumes. You can pick up the fifth member, Angel, in his X-Factor costume in a Toys R Us two-pack with Warpath. I’m not sure if there’s been a first appearance Angel announced.
I guess my good news / bad news post from earlier today was really good news *and* more good news. The remaining Dark Knight figures that I thought may have stalled out are actually just being produced in higher numbers for a run that will now include Toys R Us in the spring of next year. And with the bigger production run comes a lower $15 price tag. That’s a lot more palatable.
You’ll be able to get these figures first on MattyCollector.com. I’m curious what price they’ll be when they hit TRU.
The Dark Knight Toys Coming to Toys “R” Us
The Dark Knight Movie Masters Two-Face
Hey Dark Knight Fans,
I’ve got a hot update on Movie Masters™ The Dark Knight products…
You already know that initially the plan was to offer one new figure per month at MattyCollector.com. Thanks to you, loyal Dark Knight fans, sales have been so good that we’re feeling confident enough to increase production and also bring the line to Toys “R” Us in the spring.
The good news is that you’ll be able to walk into your local Toys “R” Us and find The Dark Knight figures. The even better news? You’ll still be able to get them at MattyCollector.com and because of the increased production numbers, we’ll be reducing the price to just $15 each!
Here’s how it’ll go down: The Joker as Gotham City Thug figure started out here on MattyCollector.com, and will continue to be a MattyCollector.com exclusive as long as we’ve got stock. The remaining six figures in the line will be available here first, one each month for the new price of $15 each. Then this spring they’ll all be available at Toys “R” Us except for The Joker as Gotham City Thug. At press time, here’s how the line is slated for sale here at MattyCollector.com (subject to change, as always):
ON SALE NOW: The Joker as Gotham City Thug — a MattyCollector.com exclusive!
December 15: Survival Suit Bruce Wayne
January 15: Harvey Dent
February 15: The Joker with Missile Launcher
March 15: Scarecrow
April 15: Batman (Night Vision)
May 17: Two-Face
You know I always try to tell you like it is. While this strategy won’t work for every Mattycollector.com line, when the second-highest grossing film of all time* is behind a toy line, it gives us a unique opportunity to bump up production numbers and offer it at retail as well so even more fans can get the characters they want.
I’ll let you know as soon as we have expected on-shelf dates. We really appreciate everyone’s support for this great line!
