Hot Toys Announces Iron Man Mark 38 Igor Heavy Lifting Armor

Hot Toys Iron Man Mark 38 Igor 02

For those of you waiting for the official announcement for Igor, the heavy lifting armor from Iron Man 3, it’s here! This behemoth stands nearly 17-inches tall, but to keep the cost down (still to be revealed when pre-orders go up) Hot Toys has nixed any accessories.

I’m still trying to understand what funkiness can happen with the spine on this figure’s back. I guess it’s demonstrating the heavy lifting with those supporting blocks on its shoulderblades. I dig the armor, but I think with the size and cost, it probably isn’t going to fit in my collection.

MOTUC Despara 1 MOTUC Despara 2 MOTUC Despara 3

Masters of the Universe Classics Despara by Hunter Knight Customs – I haven’t been reading the new He-Man comic book (should I?) so I can’t speak to how this custom matches up to She-Ra’s misguided Despara character, but I find it pretty cool nonetheless – ends Oct 13, 2013 18:55:31 PDT

I’m Getting My Breaking Bad Fix from Mezco at NYCC

I know everyone and their mothers have already seen the Breaking Bad series finale, but I’m just starting it on Netflix. And I just got to the episode that features Walter White in the green lab suit. This exclusive is already pre-sold out on the Mezco site, but I’ll try to pick one up at NYCC later this week.

Mezco presents Breaking Bad Walter White Green Hazmat Suit Edition, this much anticipated figure features Walter in his green suit as seen in the episode A No Rough Stuff Type Deal.

He comes complete with a fifty-five gallon chemical drum (not shown) and a trio of lab bottles.

The whole set is discreetly packaged in a collector-friendly window box package.

This Mezco Summer Exclusive is a Limited Edition of 500 pieces.

Marvel Select The Wolverine – Write Your Own Story by ActionFiguresRule

A few weeks ago, our good friend Richard, aka ActionFiguresRule, from the MATRIX Photo Booth and AFR Studio sent me some quick pics for the Marvel Select Wolverine from Diamond Select Toys. He promised some follow-up pictures in more of a story format. And he sent them a little while back, and in all my glorious laziness I only got them posted today (sorry Richard!)

The cool thing is that he’s provided all the pictures for a great story, but left it up to you to fill in the rest. Have a great plot, or dialogue, or the whole deal? Leave it in the comments below. Have fun!
