You may experience some sticker shock with the $99 price tag on the upcoming Batman: Arkham City Clayface, but take a look at how this monster was made. DC Collectible’s Jim Fletcher and Phil Ramirez have put together a three-part video series of how Clayface was sculpted.
The deluxe Clayface will hit shelves in July this year. Continue reading “Watch From Clay to Clayface – DC Collectibles Sculpting Time-Lapse Videos”
If you are suffering from withdrawal from Mattel’s DC Universe Classics after Club Infinite Earths died an ugly death last year, rest assured that DC Collectibles is continuing to make collector-oriented, comics-based action figures, as well as figures supporting the popular DC video games. On the comics front, Red Hood and the Outlaws get a series of figures. I’m not reading the book, so I have no idea whether this version of Jason Todd will delight the fans that were disappointed by Mattel’s costume choice for him. But I do know that Roy wearing a baseball cap looks dumb.
Clayface is the latest deluxe figure from Batman: Arkham City. He’s huge and, at $99.95, has the price tag to match. And there’s more, including more Injustice and some Earth 2 heroines.

Can you believe Entertainment Earth is *still* running daily deals for the holidays? They started this so long ago that I must have refreshed that page at least a hundred times. Today’s deal is for the DC Collectibles Super Heroes vs. Super Villains 7-pack. At $70 (that’s 30% off the regular price) it’s the best deal you’ll get on figures that are now normally priced at $20 and up. That is, if you don’t already have a bunch of them, or do just want some shiny repaints.
You need just $5 more to trigger the free shipping for $75 deal, which, admittedly, is tougher than it seems. I found a chuckle-inducing G.I. Joe Retaliation Snake Eyes Ninjac-Cucks Nunchucks for $12.99. Or you could go for a slightly more practical LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Flashlight for $9.99. Happy shopping!
Before we got tied up with CustomCon 36, DC Collectibles wrapped up another Spoiler Alert game. They revealed the New 52 Hawkgirl. Some folks had it guessed from the first image (a portion of her wings) but I had no idea – not reading the New 52 Earth 2 didn’t help.
The grumpy old man in me wants to know why they had to mess with her color scheme – I know New 52 is, well, new, but I’d like more nods to the history, and the brown, red, green, and yellow always worked for the Thanagarians. Hawkgirl’s still a Thanagarian, right?
