Pics of all that stuff are up at MarvelousNews.com

Personally, I got excited over the new Marvel muggs (Magneto, Iceman, Unmasked Spidey and Green Goblin), especially with the rumor that the muggs line was being killed off.

Hasbro got toy rights for Overwatch, and LEGO sets are coming.

That Tarkin makes me excited for the rumored line of New Trilogy retro figures.

Only thing that bugs me is no commando head, and it's a convention exclusive meaning if I wanna own it, 💸💸💸.

I think this is going to be similar to like, the SDCC exclusive Sith Trooper, where the packaging + extra accessories were the exclusive, but the figure itself is a preview of the standard version.

Oh hey, there's now a budget option for people who don't want to pay big bucks for the Play Arts figures



Blind box, though, right?

OMG. Playmates is re-releasing the original 6 as an "SDCC" exclusive.

I don't collect TMNT and haven't followed any of the series for years but the nostalgia factor on this is insane.

I could swear this is the 3rd or 4th time they’ve re-released at the very least, the Turtles, so you might be able to get those other re-releases cheap.

Cool box, though!

Are Mando Mondays gonna be a regular thing or just today? That was...just OK as new merch to hype up the show; I keep waiting for a Moff Gideon Black Series figure.

Every Monday through the season, apparently.

All right. I think of this every 18 months or so, and then I find it, but this time I can’t do it. I’m gonna send myself an email or something with the name this time.

There was a toy line that featured (I think) spies or something. It had a vehicle that turned from a motorcycle into a submarine. I think it did the thing where a wheel became a propeller, and the front end closed up. I am pretty sure it was yellow.

Does this ring any bells for anyone?

James Bond Jr.

The vehicle was the Subcycle.

So, with the HissTank bit, does this mean we should stop reading Toyark / TFW2005 / TokuNation, too?

Well you should still limit your exposure to TFW2005 just because holy gently caress some of those people. Get in, check news and local sightings, and gtfo.

My favorite thing I've seen today is the owner of a certain shop in Maryland bitching about BBTS getting the Power Con exclusives while stores like his are the reason MOTU has stayed alive. This is the same guy who sends hi guys out on massive hunts to grab up every single new release they can get and they routinely double the prices when they put them up for sale. Dude doesn't even order direct, his business is entirely based on lowballing on collections and scalping.

Call this an educated guess - Collectors Corner or Third Eye Comics?

That is a frankly, stunning piece. The MCU version of Mysterio is one of their best panel-to-screen conversions, and that figure really underlines it.

Justin Ishmael. Former head of Mondo, runs his own company, ISH, now.

I’d imagine these will be of great quality.

I’ve been really impressed by the Netflix version of The Sandman, and I’m wondering if there might be any action figures in the works now that it’s a massive hit. I would love to have a little Tom Sturridge Morpheus on my shelf, along with the several other Morpheus figures I’ve acquired over many years. It occurs to me that McFarlane is licensing stuff from both DC and Netflix, so that’s a natural fit, but they’re also pretty hit and miss with the likenesses of real people. If Hot Toys ever decides to do one, I might actually go for it.

I usually go for more visually interesting characters as a toy collector than “sad guy in a black robe,” but I’m a big fan of both the character and the performance there.

If nothing else, I'd imagine some third party Asian company will release a 1:6 "Nighttime Man" which looks VERY STRONGLY like Tom Sturridge.

Looks to me like it's a repaint + new head sculpt.

Went to target to scope out the new turtles and while the website said they had em they didnt have any out.

Regardless looking at them online and the other characters... there hasn't been any pictures of Cynthia Utrom or a toy for her. Are they holding back for a reveal or are we not getting a Krang from this movie? I want my utroms.

They released a bunch of character posters today. Here ya go.
