Hot Toys Updates the Tony Stark (Armor Testing Version) Figure

Hot Toys announced the Iron Man 3 Tony Stark (now dubbed the armor testing version) back in February. I thought the head sculpt was a decent likeness but apparently there was enough feedback that Hot Toys went back to the design studio and worked it a bit more. He looks a little worried now to me – considering what’s in store from the Mandarin, I don’t blame him.

Also added, an armored gauntlet for his right arm, to match the one they were already providing for the left. I think some people were hoping for a Pepper Potts instead. 🙂 She and Maria Hill are the only major supporting characters left from the Avengers without their own Hot Toys figures. Maybe Iron Man 3 will be the ticket for a Pepper figure.

Border Patrol: Marvel Legends Shang Chi, DC Universe Classics Red Hood, and Transformers Masterpiece Ultra Magnus

Marvel Legends Shang Chi by Loosecollector – the Filipino customizing collective is back with a deceptively simple-looking custom of the Master of Kung Fu, who comes with interchangeable hands, an alternate head, and a set of nunchuks – I’m still partial to my own custom of Shang Chi, but LC’s is so smooth and clean – ends Mar 12, 2013 18:04:53 PDT

In AFP’s Border Patrol, we scour active eBay auctions for customized action figures that you won’t want to let slip by!

Marvel.com Reveals the Marvel Select Wolverine Movie Figure

Hagop and I got an early look at this Wolverine figure when we saw the upcoming Marvel Select figures at Toy Fair. Of course, photos were not allowed. Seeing this in person, my first impression was that the figure had a pretty good likeness for Hugh Jackman. This is a nice figure from Diamond Select Toys, but I think it needs more hair. (Add this to the list of odd statements I’ve had to make for the sake of my toy hobby.)

Wolverine Marvel Select Figure Premiere

Diamond Select Toys unveils the new Marvel Select Wolverine figure!

“Marvel’s The Avengers.” “X-Men Origins: Wolverine.” “The Amazing Spider-Man.” The Marvel cinematic universe is a constant source of great characters and costumes for the Marvel Select action figure line from Diamond Select Toys. This year, three films based in the Marvel Universe will make it into Select form. While all three films are highly anticipated, one has been shrouded in secrecy, leaving fans to only guess at what toys the film might bring. But now DST has unveiled their newest Select figure, for 20th Century Fox’s “The Wolverine!”

Based on the celebrated comic book arc, “The Wolverine” finds Logan, the eternal warrior and outsider, in Japan. There, samurai steel will clash with adamantium claw as Logan confronts a mysterious figure from his past in an epic battle that will leave him forever changed. This seven-inch action figure, due out this fall, depicts Wolverine in a look straight out of the film and features 16 points of articulation as well as interchangeable hands and heads, sculpted by Gentle Giant! The figure comes with a detailed display base in display-ready Select packaging, with the movie art on the shelf reference panel. Visit http://www.diamondselecttoys.com/ for more.

Pre-order from your local comic shop or your favorite online specialty toy store!
