At the Mattel Mattypalooza panel at San Diego Comic-Con last Friday, Toy Guru announced (among a ton of other things) that one vehicle would be sold as part of the Masters of the Universe Classics line (not as part of the Club Eternia subscription – thanks for the correction, Matt) in the fourth quarter of 2011. The next day, we visited the Four Horsemen at their booth (shared with ActionFigureXpress) and we saw this piece – their concept for a Masters of the Universe Classics Battle Ram. Wow!

GrownNerd at the Fwoosh insisted that our coverage of San Diego Comic-Con would not be complete without an album of booth babes. Here you go, smart guy!
And don’t worry, there’s still more toy coverage that we’ll find time to post over the next few days. In the meantime, enjoy!

After Mattel’s Mattypalooza panel (video coming soon), they put out a bunch of the new figures that they revealed, including the Eternian Guard army builder 2-pack.
And somehow, Mattel and the Four Horsemen managed to make the biggest sissy in She-Ra Princess of Power one tough looking badass. Yes, I’m talking about Bow.

San Diego Comic-Con 2010 – Mattel DC Universe Panel
Mattel held its DC Universe panel at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday. We caught the presentation in its entirety.
Some highlights for me:
- Jonah Hex in DC Universe Classics wave 16! That’s the top of my list for DC, and I’m replacing Hex with Sgt. Rock for my most wanted list.
