Power-Con 2013 Pics by ActionFiguresRule

powercon2013022

Once again, I wasn’t able to go to Power-Con, which was held a couple weekends ago. Luckily for me, our buddy Richard, aka ActionFiguresRule, from the MATRIX Photo Booth and AFR Studio sent us over a hundred pics he snapped at the event.

There’s cosplay, internet and media personalities, Masters of the Universe Classics, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and the Four Horsemen properties – Gothitropolis Ravens, Power Lords, and Outer Space Men. Richard even captured portions of the Power-Con auction and cosplay contest. Fun stuff!

Four Horsemen Share Updates for Gothitropolis Ravens Add-Ons

Gothitropolis Raven - Final Wings Gothitropolis Raven - Bone Wings and Skull Gothitropolis Raven - Flamingo Gothitropolis Raven - Stand

The Four Horsemen may be busy with Power Lords and Outer Space Men exclusives, but that doesn’t mean they’ve been neglecting their Gothitropolis Ravens Kickstarter project for the Fantastic Exclusive. They recently posted a few updates with the latest on items that were still works in progress when the Kickstarter project completed its funding drive.

The wings and bone wings / skull add-ons were part of the original set of stretch goals that were present when the project launched. The Flamingo was an add-on figure that got added to the mix late in the game, after the Screaming Eagle was unlocked. And the action figure stands were put in as a $3 add-on (yes, just three dollars) close to the end of the funding.

If you’re a backer, please take note – the fulfillment surveys for the project close out this Friday.

Four Horsemen Announce New York Comic Con Exclusive Outer Space Men

Four Horsemen Beta Phase White Star Outer Space Men NYCC 2013 Exclusive

It wouldn’t be New York Comic Con without a Four Horsemen exclusive – and this time it’s a white and translucent blue deco for the Beta Phase / White Star edition of the Outer Space Men.

With sets of three figures for $35 and individual figures at $11 or $16 (depending on size), the Four Horsemen are testing the waters for lower price points. I wonder if that also means these will be made in higher quantities than the 200 sets of 8 White Star edition figures that ActionFigureXpress had available for San Diego Comic-Con this year – but they’ve said limited quantities for both the show and after, when they sell them on StoreHorsemen.

Play Imaginative Shares More Pics of the Super Alloy Iron Man 2 Hammer Drones

Play Imaginative Super Alloy Iron Man 2 Hammer Drones 1

Are you interested in 1/12 scale diecast Iron Man figures? Play Imaginative has just posted more pics of their Super Alloy Hammer Drones from Iron Man 2.

Although I haven’t seen specs yet, these should be upwards of 80% diecast with articulation up the wazoo, and be priced around $100 and change. Yeah, I know – that’s tough for army builders, but there’s always the lottery!
