Hasbro Marvel Mighty Muggs! They’re cute, beautifully detailed with sharp paint apps and remind me of SouthPark for some reason. I haven’t been sucked into rabid MU MM collecting, but I picked up my first at SDCC in 2008 – the Mark III from the first Iron Man movie (more on that in a bit). So, I had to get one of the SDCC 2010 Mark VI figures from the sequel. (My wife loves it when I say I *have* to get something.) I figure they’ll make great bookends for my Iron Man TPBs.

The new G.I. Joe: Pursuit of Cobra figures have been popping up at retail and I thought I’d share some quick pics of Beachhead and the Alley Viper! I haven’t bought any Joes in a long time, but the nice sculpts and wealth of accessories made me give in!

Here’s my top three “Best in Show” at SDCC this year!
3) Green Lantern Classics
I had not bought monthly comic books in a long time, but the Blackest Night storyline got me coming back every month when the series was still going on. Green Lantern has been on a roll lately, and with the movie coming out next year, it’s high time that Mattel finally gives this corner of the DC Universe it’s due. Seriously, the Green Lantern Corps alone could fill up a couple of waves, now that we have a rainbow spectrum of corps, there are lots more characters to choose from!
We got to see a double knee-jointed Kyle Rayner, Arkillo, Low(one of my favorite sculpts!), Maash, and Manhunters at the Con and boy do they look great. I can’t wait until they get to Atrocitus, Saint Walker and Arisia! Also this line is just full of potential army builders. You can expect collectors to pick up multiple Manhunters, and customizers to pick up multiple base bodies to create their own corps members. It’ll be an exciting time for Green Lantern toy fans next year! And woohoo for that preview Ch’p pic!

I wasnt expecting much surprise from Marvel this year but the Sentinel in the new scale size really grabbed me. This is the giant Sentinel I have wanted since I was 11, watching the X-Men cartoon on Saturday morning. And with the new cartoon-style Cyclops coming out, they will make an awesome display.
