Meow! – Sideshow Collectibles 1/6 Scale Catwoman Available to Pre-Order

I’ll admit I haven’t been paying too much attention to Sideshow Collectibles’ 1/6 scale DC figures, but now that DC Universe Classics is more or less out of circulation for the time being, their announcement of the pre-order for the Sideshow 1/6 scale Catwoman figure has piqued my interest. It’s $189, comes with a ton of accessories, including two heads – both of which have got a serious Michelle Pfeiffer vibe going on. The Sideshow exclusive version comes with a cat idol.

This could be a slippery slope. I’m not sure if Sideshow is teasing an upcoming Batman figure in their pics, or if that’s an older Bats. And the Joker is now in stock, and at the same price, I’m severely tempted.

Hot Toys Announces The Wolverine

Hot Toys The Wolverine 16

The latest Wolverine figure from Hot Toys has got the best likeness to Hugh Jackman yet. The two outfits he comes with are a little plain – “funeral” Logan is an obvious choice, given one of the key action sequences in the movie, but it just looks out of place for the character for me. The sword of Clan Yashida is a nice accessory, but I wish it had more significance in the movie.

I suppose I would like this figure more if I had enjoyed the Wolverine movie more.

Bandai Releases Details for S.H. MonsterArts Alien vs Predator Figures

SH MonsterArts Alien vs Predator 01

I saw these figures at San Diego Comic-Con, and was really impressed by the sculpt and deco on the prototypes there. The big question I had was how would these figures be articulated. It looks like these will raise the bar for action figures for these two franchises. I know the license is specific to the AVP franchise, but one can hope they’ll expand to get more.

The Alien is due in January 2014 and will stand at 6.6 inches tall. The Predator follows in February and is 7 inches tall. These figures won’t be cheap, but I think a lot of people will find them irresistible. We’ll see these figures again at New York Comic Con.

At first, 3A Toys was skipping New York Comic Con this year. Thanks to Legionnaire Dolly aka chillywilly153, the 3A Legion procured a booth at the Con. 3A then obliged by prepping an Isobelle Pascha variant as a con exclusive. I love the superhero nod – it’s got a Power Girl vibe to it, despite 3A having a Marvel license but not a DC Comics one. I’m sure this will be extremely difficult to get.
