Timeless Dimension has revealed that Kotobukiya has released some photos of a new Star Wars ARTFX Darth Vader Return of the Jedi Edition PVC Pre-Painted Assembly Kit. This Darth Vader contains some unique light-up features. The life support panel on his chest, the lights on his belt and his lightsaber all featuring LED lights. But the most unique feature is the helmet. The helmet features a light-up mechanism that allows you to see Anakin Skywalker's visage inside the helmet. This is due for a September 2011 release.

Welcome to the ALL NEW Toyark.com!

Toyark.com has gone through a top to bottom redesign aimed at making the site more enjoyable and easier to use for you guys. Let's get right into what's new around here:

New Theme & Logo

We upgraded the color scheme and logo of the site. Now, you can actually see the whole thing :). We've moved away from the red and black, as that's being used in other places around the network, and thought Toyark should have a feel of it's own. Say hello to Black and Yellow (and blue and gray)!

We also have put image links on the right sidebar to the core areas of the site - Marvel, DC, MOTU, Star Wars. Links to both news and the forums. Easy to jump in from anywhere on the site now.

We have also reverted to a more traditional forum layout. Name, Avatar on the left. System links up top. Login box on top right. Just like all the other sites you are used to.

New Forum Structure

News and Rumors

We have moved to a method for news, and discussion of news, that we use on the other network sites. There is now a Toy and Action Figure News and Rumors forum. All discussion related to news that shows up on the front page will be posted there. If you guys find news around the web, related to toys, you can start a new thread in there. We will scan that forum, and front page anything you find before we do, with credit of course.

One Line Per Thread


To help consolidate the scattered discussion around the site, we took a page from the TFW2005's "Mother Toyark" forum and created a "One Line Per Thread" sub forum. For each toy line, there will be one thread. This forum will be listed alphabetically, and all new threads will be moderated by staff before appearing. Don't worry, you can still use AFGD to talk about specific things, but we wanted to give this option for the casual fan who just wants to jump in and out on a specific topic, see some cool pics, and be done.

Featured Toy Lines and Properties

We have separated out what we think are the most important areas of the site: Marvel, DC, MOTU, Star Wars, Video Games/Movies. They are now under their own heading. On top of that, we have expanded their discussion scope. Now, in each of these, you can talk about ALL aspects of those lines. There are sub forums for Toys (same as before) Movies, Comics, and a GD for each. This will allow you to talk about everything Marvel, or everything DC, all in one spot.

Sightings

Sightings have been consolidated. There is one Sightings Forum, and each state has a thread. All toy lines should have their sightings posted in the thread for your State/Area. That way you can follow what's new and where for everything without having to bounce around.

Customs and Fan Art


Now have preview thumbnails when looking at the thread list. So make sure to attach at least one image if you start new threads in there, the people you want to see your stuff like looking at pretty pictures first! :)

Lots Of Other Things

We also did a lot of other less visible, backend, and small tweaking around the site. Nothing worth spouting off about. One thing of note though - we've pruned our users. All members imported from TFW2005 back in 2008 that have not logged in have been removed. We've also removed all members who signed up themselves, but haven't logged in for over a year. So our registered members have been thoroughly chopped down. But what is left is you, the real members of TOYARK. A clean fresh start for a new fresh layout.

We welcome anyone who had an account removed, or who hasn't signed up yet, to sign up today. You guys are what makes these places on the web special. Why not use this relaunch point for The Toyark to join the action and make us one of your regular stops on the interwebz.

That's about it, feel free to hit the discuss button and let us know what you think!... [Read More]

MattyCollectors Facebook Page has been updated with the newest Masters of the Universe Classics figure. They have revealed Battleground Teela in package, as well as her bio.

"After being wounded by King Hssss' venom, the Sorceress of Grayskull knew her time was short. She quickly arranged a mission with Teela to the Elder's training citadel in the Polar Ice Cap. Here, the Sorceress revealed Teela's true heritage, that she was secretly her magically cloned daughter and destined to become the next guardian of the Castle Grayskull and its secrets! Although in a state of disbelief, Teela knew in her heart that her mother spoke the truth, and trained with the Sorceress until the venom at last overtook her. Returning to Grayskull as the new guardian, Teela uses her new magic to protect the Power of Grayskull and guard the safety of all Eternia."

Art Asylum has revealed a new Bust Bank. Their newest addition is a Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith Commander Cody Bust Bank.

"Continuing our line of Star Wars bust banks, allow me to present to you - Commander Cody. Long before he took up the habit of blasting Jedi, Commander Cody was a trusted ally of Obi-Wan Kenobi. So the question now is - do you trust him to hold your money? Of course you do, it’s an inanimate object. Really people, you have got to stop letting me influence you into thinking these things have feelings. Although, is it just me or does Cody’s visor follow you when you move? Hmm…Anyway, this piece was digitally sculpted by Oluf Hartvigson and painted by Star Wars afficiando Ed Wires. While all of my Clone variants have unique sculpts, Cody is by far the most detailed with his brand new head and shoulder pads."

Click the headline of the story to check out a few photos. Star Wars fans, are you clamoring to add this to your (sure to be dwindling) shelf space?... [Read More]

From the 1970's-1990's, Stretch Armstrong was a fairly popular toy in the boys market. The line has seen numerous revisions and changes, but the basic concept of a stretchy strongman remained throughout. Now it appears that Hasbro is readying a new line based on this once popular brand. Some new listings have popped up at the United States Patent and Trademark Office.Thanks to our good friend NIBMRatchet from TFW2005, we can now see those new trademark applications. They run from new toys, to clothing lines, luggage, beach towels, video games and more.

It's the middle of the month, and you know what time it is, MattyCollector Q&A answer time! This month we get answers about:
  • Count Marzo!
  • Voltron Classics; the huge Classic Voltron figure...a box set or no?
  • Batman Beyond and how his "return" would be handled in DCUC
and more!

1) Given that The Faceless One has to use Marzo's grasping left hand with the fingernails, is it too late in development to swap out the right hand with one from a figure which also has fingernails (e.g. He-Man), so that both hands at least match (with the "magic tight glove look" that ToyGuru mentioned)?
A) In case you missed our announcements at NYCC, C2E2 and Wonder Con, indeed this is how we are doing Faceless One.

2) Will we see the Batman Beyond figure from Wave 4 rereleased in a "best of" wave or as an "All Star" figure? Or will we see a Batman Beyond figure in the Batman Legacy line, perhaps using a thinner, more slender buck? Terry is much slimmer compared to Bruce Wayne, but the DCUC figure looked just as big as the Bruce Wayne Batman figures in the line.
A) If we rereleased Terry it would likely be without changes. If we used up resources on a new version it would take away a slot for another new figure.

3) Since you were able to make the 12" Movie Masters Superman in Christopher Reeves' likeness, are you legally able to do this in the Movie Masters 6" line?
A) No, at this time we are restricted to the 12” scale.

4) One big bad guy from the 4H's past is Killer Croc, whom they last made a figure of in the DC SuperHeroes(DCSH) line. With his appearance in the Arkham game, and the new Batman Legacy line coming later this year, is there a slot open for a new, fully articulated Killer Croc figure?
A)We would love to get to a new Croc in time, but nothing is planned right now.

5) Buying through Mattycollector.com has sometimes been a stressful experience for collectors. We heard a few details from C2E2 regarding the Voltron Classics line. One such detail is that the lions would be sold individually, exclusively through Mattycollector.com, with a possible retail release later on. To alleviate concerns of fellow collectors, have you considered offering all 5 lions in a box set? This has somewhat been a tradition for previous toy companies who held the Voltron license.
A) While they will not be offered in one box, we are looking into a subscription program to buy all of the skus much like MOTUC.

As always folks, don't forget to post your questions for the MattyCollector Q&A in our MattyCollector Questions Thread!... [Read More]
