Sideshow posted this teaser image of a Hot Toys Spider-Man 3 figure on the Sideshow Facebook page. I wonder if we’ll get the black suit included with the Spidey figure. Maybe we’ll even get the emo disco outfit. What the deuce, Sam Raimi?!

Diamond Select Toys Announces Marvel Minimates Series 38
I’ve been cherry-picking Marvel Minimates for a long time – I think they’re awesome, but it’s just another scale and figure type that I don’t have a lot of shelf space for. I’ll definitely be picking up the Iron Fist. I have the Toy Fare exclusive set with Power Man from a few years ago, and this is a great update to the modern costume.
Marvel Minimates Series 38 Revealed!
Marvel Minimates might be small, but they pack a mean punch! The #1 block figure in the world has seen an amazing 36 assortments hit retailers shelves as well as new assortments arriving in Toys-R-Us stores nationwide! Diamond Select is now pleased to reveal its unprecedented 38th series of Marvel Minimates!
This assortment focuses on Marvel’s hit series Shadowland! The first two-pack in this assortment features your “street-level” heroes Spider-Man and Iron Fist. Can they take down Daredevil and the Hand…you decide! Next up in the assortment mixes the old leader of the Hand, Elektra with the new leader Daredevil who seeks to utilize the Hand as a force for justice. The next two-pack features Hand member White Tiger and a Hand army builder! There will also be a variant Classic White Tiger that will also come with a Hand army builder so you can create your own army of ninjas to wreak havoc!
Look for this exciting new assortment in comic stores early next Spring, and keep an eye out for more fantastic new exclusives as the Marvel Minimates line continues to deliver new pint-sized heroes, villains and teams like never before!
Black Friday Action Figure Deals for the Armchair Shopper
A few years ago I got myself hyped up enough to go hit a Wal-Mart on Black Friday – and the closest one is about 40 minutes away. I didn’t have a plan or anything specific I was looking for, so it wasn’t a great use of my time. So even though I no longer venture out on these cold Black Fridays, that doesn’t stop me from looking for great toy deals online.

Happy Thanksgiving! AFP’s Thanksgiving Action Figure Picks
While the guys have many other things for which to be thankful, for our Thanksgiving post I asked them to share some thoughts on a figure or set of figures that come to mind. We’ll start with Sandman, who decided he would go big or go home.
My Thanksgiving action figure pick is the Big G himself, Hasbro’s Marvel Masterworks Galactus! Why am I thankful for getting this figure? Well, it is quite rare these days that we get a 19-inch, fully articulated, nicely sculpted, giant action figure like Galactus. Just look at the heights of the DC Universe Classics Collect and Connect figures and even Tytus of the Masters of the Universe Classics line, they don’t even come close to his height. His retail price of $50, in my opinion, is fairly reasonable. He looks great with my Marvel Legends AND he looks even better with my Marvel Universe figures! I look forward to being thankful to Hasbro for some Sentinels next year and hopefully some nice lookin’ Marvel Legends in 2012!
