Art Asylum is reporting that their Avengers Movie Minimates have been officially released to Toy "R" Us stores.

Only days remain until Marvel’s The Avengers hits U.S. theaters, but U.S. toy stores are already getting in some of the most fun Avengers toys we’ll see this year! The movie-themed wave of Marvel Minimates is hitting Toys “R” Us stores now, with four two-packs featuring Hulk, Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Nick Fury and Loki. Diamond Select Toys took the figures out on the streets of New York City to recreate their epic battle with Loki’s Army, and they look even more spectacular in action! The Loki’s Army Footsoldier and General and Maria Hill Minimates will be available exclusively at at comic shops later in May, so for now you’ll have to make the Avengers fight each other, but judging by the trailers (and 50 years of comic books) that is apparently fairly common.

Art Asylum has posted images and info for their Marvel Minimates Series 47: X-Men vs The Brood.

Of all the aliens that have invaded Earth in Marvel Comics over the years — the Skrulls, the Kree, the Chitauri, the Dire Wraiths — none are quite so unpleasant as the Brood. But that unpleasantness makes them the subject of some great stories, which is why the next series of Marvel Minimates features the Brood alongside their frequent foes, the Uncanny X-Men!

The 47th series of Marvel Minimates includes three all-new comic-based two-packs: Rogue with Colossus, Longshot with Dazzler, and Wolverine with a Brood, plus a rare, one-per-case variant two-pack where Wolverine has been infected by a Brood egg! A race of scavengers and parasites, the Brood implant their eggs inside a living host, and that egg transforms its host into another Brood. The X-Men were already public enemy number one to the Brood after doing battle with them in the cold reaches of space, but when a Brood ship crashed in Australia, they found themselves facing a potential infestation of Earth. And it didn’t help that the Brood can assume their host’s mutant powers — now the X-Men had to deal with mutant Brood!

Each Minimate stands 2 inches tall with 14 points of articulation and a variety of removable and interchangeable parts and accessories — Dazzler will include two separate looks, and Colossus comes with both bare and shirt-wearing chests, as well as a “fastball special” hand for holding Wolverine. The figures in this assortment will only be available in comic shops and specialty stores, so don’t miss out! Pre-order them today!

With a team of 5 angst filled teenagers piloting weapons of mobile suit destruction, there had to be said mobile suits to be the object of destruction. For Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, these came in the form of the OZ6MS Leos. Maybe you had the Mobile Suit in Action!(MSiA) from over a decade ago. Maybe you wanted a modernized Leo figure.

Tamashii comes to the rescue, as they will be releasing the Robot Damashii SIDE MS OZ6MS Leo! However, unlike the MSiA! release, you have to buy an option set to get all the parts. The Robot Damashii Leo($36.99) by itself only comes with a machine gun and interchangeable hands. Meanwhile the $24.99 option set comes with:
  • shoulder beam rifle
  • dobergun
  • bazooka
  • shield
  • two types of beam sabers
  • additional interchangeable hand part
  • movable head
Info and images come our way via the Bluefin Tamashii Nations USA Facebook page, check them out after the jump!... [Read More]

It's the start of a new month, and a new round of MattyCollector 2012 Q&A answers!

1) Mattel. It seems 3.75 lines tend to hurt your company by poor sales. From the canceling of Infinite Heroes, the clearancing of Green Lantern basic figures, and also the early price cutting of the Young Justice 4 inch line. You hired away the Four Horsemen from Mcfarlane Toys long ago to help with larger action figures. Can you do the same thing today by hiring some designers away from Hasbro's better Marvel Universe lines of great 3.75" figures?
A) An interesting thought and something to consider, although scale might appear to be a correlated factor, there are other factors with a lower p-value in this regression that ought to be considered (figured I’d get you to brush up on statistics =)

2) Is it at all likely that we'll see a New 52 Batwoman figure in the future (if not near future), or would the [unfortunately] controversial nature of her character prevent one from going into production?
A) We don't consider Batwoman to be controversial at all. She is a great figure we'd love to get to one day.

3) Black Shirt and Blue Jeans Superboy. This is the most Sought after outfit. Is anything preventing this design from being used in the 6 inch Young Justice Select Series line?
At this point, there are no plans to release him. Sorry! Additionally, we will not be continuing YJ on Matty.com in any scale (at this time). We tried a similar brand, JLU, in many form factors (singles, 3 packs, 4 packs and a 7pack of all new figures) and none sold well enough. This makes it a bit harder to continue YJ online. A toyline like YJ really takes Mom and Kid interest to keep it going. We cannot keep the line like YJ going on collector support alone. JLU proved this.

4) I hope this constitutes as a valid question, but did Matty collector scrap those 3.75" Super Deformed Masters Of The universe toys they showed off awhile back? They looked really cool.
A) Not in the least. We are still looking into these to see if there is a way to release them. No set plans right now.

5) With Ras Al Ghul appearing in the movie, is he finally coming to the Movie Masters line?
A) No plans to announce right now.... [Read More]

Known more for their Marveland DC Comics Bishoujo Statues, model kits and anime items, Kotobukiya has teamed up with Enterbay for something a little different. They have released a full gallery of their upcoming Elvis Presley '68 Comeback Special ArtFX. It is scheduled for release in June. You can pre-order it from Big Bad Toy Store Here.

A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! Kotobukiya and Enterbay have teamed up in a once in a lifetime collaboration to bring you the one and only “King of Rock and Roll” in a special ARTFX action figure: ELVIS PRESLEY® ’68 COMEBACK SPECIAL! Born in Tupelo, Mississippi in 1935, Elvis Aaron Presley would become one of the biggest musical performers of all time with more than two dozen number one singles during his lifetime and appearances on television and in films. After a brief stint in the U.S. Army and a number of years spent in Hollywood, Elvis famously returned to his roots with a TV event that became known as the ’68 Comeback Special. Dressed in black leather and playing guitar alongside his singing, the King was on the top of the world!

Based on his appearance in the 1968 Comeback Special, Elvis’ looks and clothing have been painstakingly recreated in this highly detailed action figure; his outfit is even made from real cloth for the most realistic look possible! The iconic singer comes with a full range of historically accurate accessories including microphone and stand, guitar, speaker, and a display base designed to look like part of the stage. To go along with all of the accessories and his flamboyant posing Elvis also comes with several interchangeable hands! But that’s not all. No mere statue, this King of Rock and Roll combines an incredibly lifelike sculpt, expert paint applications, and realistic clothing with over 25 points of articulation for a wide variety of display options!

Elvis Presley stands a stately 13 inches tall (1/6th scale) and comes to you from Chief Sculptor and Art Director Y.J. Park and Sculptor Scuderia. Each numbered piece in this limited release will come with a special commemorative hologram sticker, further solidifying this as a must-have for collectors of Elvis memorabilia as well as fans of state of the art 1/6th scale action figures!
Product Number: KOT10853
Shipping Weight: 2.80 pounds

Kotobukiya has released images of an upcoming Marvel Hawkeye Classic Avengers Fine Art Statue.

Created in 1964 by Stan Lee and artist Don Heck, Clint Barton was an orphan working in a carnival who learned archery to become a master marksman. After dabbling in crime he chose the path of righteousness and became a costumed superhero, working alongside the Avengers for years and gaining huge popularity among Marvel’s readers. Barton joins the original trio of Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man in his iconic original costume: Hawkeye Classic Avengers! You’ve seen the latest incarnation of Hawkeye in the Avengers film and now you can celebrate his classic look in this amazing new fine art statue.

Wearing his traditional dark blue and purple costume, Hawkeye defends the Earth from the greatest threats with a smirk on his face and the Avengers to back him up. The master archer stands on a rocky outcropping, resting his right arm on his knee as he surveys the battlefield looking for his next target. The hero’s sculpt really captures the character from the features of his classic costume to the subtle details of his pose like Barton’s thumb testing the edge of his bladed arrow and the flowing movement of his cloth-like tabard. Every element of Hawkeye’s classic costume has been recreated from the skin-tight cowl with pointed mask and “H” logo to the scale mail-like chest piece, bracelets, and retro cuffed boots. And while he holds his trusty bow and one arrow at the ready, look closely to see that the hero’s quiver is still fully stocked! As a special addition, Hawkeye’s base even includes the severed arm and head of Avenger’s foe Ultron, with an arrow sticking out of the robot’s eye for good measure.

Sculpted by Erick Sosa, Classic Avengers Hawkeye stands nearly 13 inches tall (1/6 scale). His rocky terrain base matches those on the other Classic Avengers, the previously released Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man so you can display them individually or as a team!

Available November 2012.

NECA has unveiled a second Portal 2 device that will be coming soon. The second versions is P-Body's Portal Device.

The NEW Portal Replica Is Coming

Time has flown by since we announced our partnership with Valve one year ago. With the release of the Portal device replica things have hit a boiling point – and this is just the beginning! We had high expectations for the Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device, and thanks to the support of the Portal community around the world, these expectations were greatly exceeded.

Presenting P-body’s Portal Device



With Great Demand, Comes Great Responsibility

Over the last few weeks, we have received a large influx of feedback from the community. A significant portion of this feedback were angry comments from community members who did not have an opportunity to purchase the Portal gun. Receiving angry comments from customers is a situation we do not want to be in, and take very seriously here at NECA. To address this feedback, we are producing another 5,000 units of P-body’s Portal Device, and we’ll do our best to make sure it reaches those who were not able to purchase the original replica

If you are considering spending an absurd amount of money on eBay, we ask for just a little more patience. Next week, as we have done with the Portal device replica, we will announce approved retailers who will take pre orders.

TL;DR: Details for the 1st Co-op Edition

• New Portal Device replica based on P-body’s Aperture Handheld Portal Device
• 5000 units will be made
• Lights are Orange and Red
• Replica shell features yellow racing stripes
• Sounds and trigger action will remain the same as the original Portal device
• Approved retailers will be announced next week

Domo fans, looking for some new figures? Looks like Mezco has you covered. They have sent along a press release about a series of new Domo Bobbleheads and Action Figures. Read on for more info.

Mezco' New Line Featuring Domo Bobbleheads and Action Figures Already Generating Early Buzz will Hit Retailers Later this Year

New York, NY, May10 2012 – Branded entertainment company Big Tent Entertainment and Mezco Toyz, a leader in collectable action figures, doll manufacturing and marketing, announced a licensing agreement for a new line of collectibles featuring iconic character Domo. The new Domo line, which is expected to hit stores later this year, will include bobbleheads, clip-on figures, action figures, and wind-up walking toys.

Mezco Toyz unveiled the assortment of new collectible Domo products to much fanfare at the New York International Toy Fair in February. The Domo collectibles also generated early buzz from some of the biggest pop culture websites including MTV.com and Electric Playground. The new Domo collectibles will be available at specialty stores later this year.

“The Domo fanbase is always hungry for new and exciting collectibles featuring our brown fuzzy friend,” said Rich Maryyanek, Chief Marketing Officer, Big Tent Entertainment. “This new line really captures the essence of the character and that was very evident in the looks of the faces of those at Toy Fair. We can’t wait for the public to have that same amazing reaction.”

“The unveiling of our Domo products at Toy Fair in February caused a tremendous reaction. Fans are clearly excited by what we have planned for Domo” said Mike Drake, Mezco’s Director Of Special Projects. “It is especially interesting to see how many people, even when they are unfamiliar with Domo, are drawn to the character and want to learn more. Domo just naturally makes new friends and fans wherever he goes!”

Domo’s unique look and personality as the mascot for Japanese public broadcaster NHK quickly catapulted the character into one of the Internet’s biggest sensations. As the reigning poster child for personalized, user-generated content, Domo has found a home as a pop culture icon within the online viral community with hundreds of thousands of fan-made images, websites and videos posted to websites such as YouTube, Facebook and Flickr, among others. Now more than a decade later, the lovable fuzzy brown character’s cult status continues to grow with product flying off retail shelves as well as a popular Facebook game called “Planet Domo” available at http://apps.facebook.com/planetdomo.

Art Asylum has posted new images of some upcoming Diamond Select Toys Star Wars Items. Included is an Star Wars: Clone Wars - Anakin Skywalker Bust Bank and a Death Star Bottle Opener.

Star Wars fans rejoice! It’s time for another pair of spectacular Star Wars collectibles from Diamond Select Toys! First up is a brand-new vinyl Star Wars bust bank, this time depicting the Clone Wars version of Anakin Skywalker! Measuring 8 inches tall, the bank has an amazing sculpt and features all the detailing of a high-end bust at a fraction of the price! Plus, it has a slot in the back for loose credits. And if you decide to spend those credits on a frosty beverage at your local cantina, you can use DST’s first-ever Star Wars metal bottle opener to pop the top! The Death Star bottle opener measures three inches in diameter, putting the power of applied Force in the palm of your hand. Made of solid metal, it can fit in your pocket (wear a belt), or hang on your refrigerator, thanks to a couple of super-strong magnets on the back. Pre-order both of these items at your local comic shop or your favorite online retailer and look for them in stores this fall!

Have you ever wanted to build your very own Star Wars figure? Well, at the Disney Parks, that wish is going to be coming true. Starting with the Star Wars Weekends (beginning May 18th), you'll be able to Build Your Own Droid. Read on for details:

Build Your Droid at the Droid Factory Coming to Tatooine Traders at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Ever since I was a little boy, I’ve dreamed of owning my own droid just like Luke Skywalker in Star Wars. Granted, I also wanted to learn the ways of the Force, but I think having an Astromech droid will be slightly easier with the Droid Factory experience launching during Star Wars Weekends 2012. Fans will be able to build and name their own R-series Astromech droid action figures. I spoke with product developer Cody Hampton who said this experience was in development for three years!

“We began discussing the Droid Factory in 2009,” explained Cody. “We know that personalization is an important aspect of the popular build-your-own light saber experience. We felt the same thing could be done with action figures but on a much larger scale.”

Large scale indeed – the Droid Factory has 71 different pieces to create the 3 ¾-inch figures! To get started, guests chose a dome, a body and legs offered in a variety of colors and styles (Cody said that availability of various parts and colors may change). There are optional third legs and novelty hats that can be added.

“We wanted lots of options for [the Droid Factory],” continued Cody. “There are literally thousands of combinations making each droid unique. Guests can also name their droids with sticker sheets provided at checkout.”

Three domes – R6, R8 and R9 – were created exclusively for this experience at Disney Parks. Cody also told me the multi-colored ear hats were inspired by Jedi Mickey’s Astromech droid, R2-MK. Four additional hats arrive later this summer including a Goofy hat, a pirate hat, a fedora and a Yoda cap.

Droids will be sold either in single or dual packs (the latter has a value price). They can also be used with the playsets we’ve created like the Starspeeder 1000.

Cody and fellow developer Brad Schoeneberg built Astromech droids for this article.

“My favorite droid is named R7-C4,” Cody continued. “He has an orange body like my favorite clone trooper, Commander Cody. He wears the Yoda cap as a nod to the actual hat created in the 1980s when I fell in love with Star Wars.”

Brad built R9-EIU in honor of Eastern Illinois University, where he completed his bachelor’s degree. He explained, “[The droid] would have been great to have around while I was in school.”

I can’t wait to create one for my office. Happy building!

Illustrated by prominent Japanese artist and character designer, Yasushi Torisawa, exclusive package art commemorates San Diego Comic-Con International 2012, and appropriately depicts the beloved San Diego Convention Center being attacked by Godzilla. Run to the Bluefin booth while supplies still last…and then run for your life!
