Hot Toys Announces “Old Man Arnold” Terminator: Genisys T-800 Guardian

Hot Toys Terminator Genisys T-800 Guardian 01

To be fair, he did warn us that he’d be back. Ahhhnold is back in the titular role once again in Terminator: Genisys, opening today (get your Terminator Genisys tickets from Fandango.)

And Hot Toys is back too, with the “Old Man Arnold” T-800 Guardian figure. It’s a little light on accessories, featuring sunglasses, a shotgun, and a few sets of hands, but it does come with two head sculpts – one an unblemished, yet aged Ahhhnold, and the other with battle-damage that shows us that yes, this is once again a different Terminator, because the endoskeleton is showing through in different places this time around. You can pre-order the Terminator T-800 Guardian Sixth Scale Figure from Sideshow Collectibles.

You seeing the movie this weekend? Come with me if you want to live.

SDCC 2015: Mondo Sneak Peek at 1/6 Scale TMNT Leonardo and More

Posters, vinyl, and collectible figures will be available for Ant-Man, Superman, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

SDCC 2015 Mondo TMNT, Ant-Man, and Hellboy

I’ll be making my first visit to Mondo at booth #835 this year. They first caught my attention with a PVC figure of the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, but at SDCC they’ll be introducing a 1/6 scale comics-based version of the turtles, starting with Leonardo. They’ve said they’ll have all four turtles on hand.

In addition, Mondo has a bunch of other artist-driven collectibles to show off, including a statue of the first Hellboy (from the Mignola sketch from 1991), a poster for Ant-Man, and two records for those of you who still spin vinyl – from Aliens and Superman: The Animated Series.

SDCC 2015: Funko Exclusives Reveals Bonus plus Tees

SDCC 2015 Funko Exclusives Reveals Bonus plus Tees

We thought Funko might have one more reveal before the big show, and they did not disappoint. In addition to two more Funko Pop! exclusives, for Batman v Superman and Breaking Bad, they also are introducing a new line of t-shirts featuring their Pop! vinyls.

Looks like their license for t-shirts may be as broad as what their other lines cover, as the debut includes Skeletor from Masters of the Universe, Black Widow from the Avengers, the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man from Ghostbusters, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. But what, no Star Wars?

SDCC 2015: S.H. Figuarts Goku (Frieza Saga) and Sailor Moon (Imposter) Exclusives

SDCC 2015 SH Figuarts Goku (Frieza Saga) and Nise Sailor Moon exclusives

We’d previously seen the S.H. Figuarts Frieza Saga Goku exclusive featured on Facebook, but now we’ve got hi res shots of it and the Sailor Moon exclusive from Bluefin, the US distributor for Bandai’s Tamashii Nations. They included the official description for Goku, but omitted one for Sailor Moon – unfortunately I know little about the property. It’s billed as the “Imposter version” on the packaging.

If you are at the show and purchase either exclusive at the Bluefin booth at #3545, you’ll get a 1Up Mushroom from their Super Mario line as a gift while supplies last.

SDCC 2015: Beast Kingdom Star Wars Darth Vader and Magnetic Floating Iron Man Exclusives

SDCC 2015 Beast Kingdom exclusive Star Wars Darth Vader and Floating Iron Man Mark III

Beast Kingdom from Taiwan will have two super cute exclusives at San Diego Comic-Con, courtesy of Blue Fin. Darth Vader and Iron Man will be featured in their “Egg Attack” looks, which I think are thusly named for their oversized but adorable egg-shaped noggins.

Both feature LED lights, and the Iron Man has a truly remarkable magnetic floating feature that allows it to hover, spinning, over its base. Bluefin products will be located on the Main Hall in Booths #3545 and #140.
