Rogue is joining the Jim Lee Cyclops and Beast in Marvel Minimates Series 4, which is shaping up to be a X-Men heavy series. I wonder who will have a variant and if there’ll be an army-builder.
Art Asylum Another Minimates Series 34 Reveal, and this one has some real Southern charm – Rogue!
No, it’s not January 1 yet, but it might be close enough for one retailer Down Under. Australian Fwoosher SWH happened across a fresh set of Mattel’s WWE Basic Series 1, just under 8 weeks before the new line is supposed to be released into retail. He’s graciously let me post his review here, and it answers a whole ton of the burning questions.
Without further ado, here’s SWH with his review of Mattel’s new Basic line for WWE!
Have you checked your local comic book stores yet for DC Universe Classics Wave 11? It seems that’s where they’re hitting first, and I’ve heard both full assortments and solid cases have arrived. Fwoosh’s DisThunder picked up a Deadman at a local shop and has put up a First Look at the new body.
Looking at Deadman, I keep thinking how simple it’d be to make a Disco Nightwing. Not that I really want one… 😀 Sinestro, on the other hand, would be a welcome redo using this body.
Well, let’s get one thing out of the way: this sure as hell ain’t Black Manta with a collar. Deadman is a completely new sculpt, from head to elf-shoe. He is much skinnier and more skeletal than I was expecting, and that’s certainly not a bad thing. I suspected at SDCC that Deadman might use a “faked” open collar; i.e. the collar and the bare chest actually being a separate piece layed over the buck body’s chest, but that is not the case. Brand’s chest is sculpted with the chest-striations and all, and the collar merely plugs into the chest to create the appropriate change in texture. Very impressive, but that does mean there’s some new parts in store for the next character to take advantage of this new “buck.”

In AFP’s Border Patrol, we scour active eBay auctions for customized action figure that you won’t want to let slip by!
Micronauts with Comics – now, as customs these are just ok, but do find the auction interesting in light of the news that Hasbro will be relaunching Micronauts in 2010 – with Hasbro holding Marvel license too, might we see some of these fan favorites at long last? – ends Nov 07, 200917:12:13 PST
