DC Universe Granny Goodness and the Female Furies by FUMan Studios – Adi and Bina at FUMan have teamed up to fill a glaring hole in your DC Universe action figure New Gods collections – it’s Granny Goodness and the Female Furies – as we discussed last week, any character voiced by Ed Asner deserves its own action figure – Granny (and her Furies) are long overdue from both DC Collectibles and DC Universe Classics
Speaking of summer blockbusters, The Wolverine opens July 26. And while I can’t forgive 20th Century Fox for damaging the franchise with the X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie and killing any hope for a Ryan Reynolds Deadpool movie, I’m even more concerned about what they might do to ruin the classic Claremont / Miller comics collaboration that still holds up over 30 years later.
Putting all that aside, one thing we can all look forward to is a Wolverine action figure send-up from the MSH: What The–?! crew at Marvel. They haven’t released one yet for the upcoming movie, but this one’s an oldie but goodie from a couple years back. Enjoy!
Tanga is calling this a “Framed Superhero Movie Poster Liquidation” but that’s underselling the cool factor. They’re over half off retail price, and they are framed and ready to hang – no more push pins and ruined posters for you. With the non-glare plexiglass, these will be a respectable addition to your man-cave that even your significant other can’t complain about – not legitimately, anyways.
And best of all, the sale is agnostic to Marvel (Spider-Man, Iron Man, Avengers, Thor, Hulk, Wolverine, and the Fantastic Four) and DC (Superman, Batman, and Green Lantern) and even includes posters from classic movies like Flash Gordon.
With a custom frame built just for your new poster, ready to hang, complete any movie room, office, or bedroom with these classic and timeless posters! Using a special non glare Plexiglass, your poster will look its best from any angle even in highly lit areas!
I was kind of hoping the just-revealed new figure from Diamond Select Toys’ Iron Man 3 Marvel Select line would be some sort of Pepper Potts figure. After all, they wouldn’t have to change anything about the Mark 42 armor except to give it an alternate Gwyneth Paltrow head sculpt, right? (Sorry, spoiler!) Instead, we get a battle-damaged variant – a predictable but likely a highly-desired choice. If you had been wondering why DST made a War Machine figure when that version of the armor didn’t appear in the movie, DST Chuck revealed in the latest Ask DST that they often start work on a movie line before the movie is done. In the case of Iron Man 3, they had an early script that featured War Machine before the Iron Patriot re-deco.
The new Mark 42 and the Iron Patriot will be exclusive to Disney Stores and online outlets DisneyStore.com and MarvelStore.com next month.
