Mattel Reveals Prahvus for Club 200X Final Week – Will He Be Enough?

With less than a week to go, Mattycollector revealed the final figure, Prahvus – the Evil Master of Doom – for its under-subscribed and at risk Club 200X. As of the last official update, the six figure plus one exclusive accessory pack subscription was at 50% of the needed pre-orders to guarantee that all the figures would be made. (We looked at what might happen if Club 200X doesn’t hit its target in our last Soapbox Sunday.)

Prahvus joins Callix, Evil Seed, King Chooblah (the Kulatak Elder), Ceratus, and Queen Grayskull as the six figures in Club 200X. The Heads of Eternia exclusive accessory pack includes MOTU 200X heads for Grizzlor, Buzz-Off, Sy-Klone, Roboto, Snout Spout, and Clawful. The subscription period ends Monday, March 23 – if you were still on the fence, is Prahvus enough to get you to sub?

More Batman: The Animated Series, Arrow, and the Flash in DC Collectibles Solicits for October 2015

DC Collectibles’ solicits for October include figures that we saw during Toy Fair, from Batman: the Animated Series, Arrow, and The Flash.

In addition to a wave of figures for B:TAS that includes Bane and Nightwing, the line will also get its first vehicle – an in scale Batmobile (two feet long!) with working hatch, room for two 6-inch figures, and LED lights. At $99.95, it’s about double what Mattel charged for it’s 6-inch scaled Batmobile for the 1966 series – but less than half the $215 that Mattycollector wanted for the Ghostbusters Ecto-1.

So, who’s going to buy the B:TAS Batmobile (check out our video fly-by of the vehicle)? I’m on the fence.

Hot Toys Reveals Smoking Hot Avengers: Age of Ultron Black Widow

ScarJo as the Black Widow is the latest Avenger from Age of Ultron to get a Hot Toys figure. She joins the Hulkbuster Iron Man, the Hulk, the Iron Man Mark XLIII, Captain America, and Ultron Prime.

I like the costume accents and all the accessories that distinguish this Black Widow from her previous figures from Captain America: the Winter Soldier and Iron Man 2, but still think they may need to make slight tweaks to the head sculpt. Maybe it’s those eyes that look to be vaguely focused off in the distance.

Haven’t seen the pre-order page go up yet, but I’ll be checking Sideshow Collectibles. Avengers Assemble! [Update: The Marvel Black Widow Marvel Sixth Scale Figure is now available to pre-order at Sideshow.]

Hot Toys Avengers: Age of Ultron – Hulk and Hulkbuster Iron Man

One of the highlights of the Avengers: Age of Ultron trailers is seeing Hulk mix it up with Iron Man in a new set of armor – the Hulkbuster armor. So it was a real treat for me to see prototypes of both figures at the Hot Toys Secret Base – their flagship retail store in Hong Kong.

Hot Toys Avengers: Age of Ultron – Iron Man Mark XLIII, Captain America, and Ultron Prime (Including Video Fly-By)

I’ve been trying to avoid the hype for Avengers: Age of Ultron, and as a result I’ve fallen behind on the toys. With the first movie a certified blockbuster, I knew that Hot Toys would go all-in on the sequel. They did not disappoint.

Here’s for the first three figures they announced: the Iron Man Mark XLIII (diecast), Captain America, and Ultron Prime. I’ve attached the press images plus a video fly-by of the three figures.
