I saw Thor yesterday (one of the benefits of traveling overseas) and luckily, the Marvel Select Thor is hitting comic book stores tomorrow. Jane Foster in her Asgardian garb will have a connecting base, and while I’m happy she’ll finally have an action figure, I think Loki would have been just as good, or even a better choice. He really steals the show this time around.
Marvel Select Thor: The Dark World 7-inch Action Figure (diorama piece combines with Jane Foster’s) by Diamond Select Toys
A few weeks ago, our good friend Richard, aka ActionFiguresRule, from the MATRIX Photo Booth and AFR Studio sent me some quick pics for the Marvel Select Wolverine from Diamond Select Toys. He promised some follow-up pictures in more of a story format. And he sent them a little while back, and in all my glorious laziness I only got them posted today (sorry Richard!)
The cool thing is that he’s provided all the pictures for a great story, but left it up to you to fill in the rest. Have a great plot, or dialogue, or the whole deal? Leave it in the comments below. Have fun!

We’re a little over a month away from Thor: the Dark World, and if you’re jonesing for toys, then Diamond Select Toys has got you covered – they’ve got Thor Minimates and Marvel Select figures on the way.
Minimates allows them to go pretty wide – not just the main guys in Thor, Malekith, and Loki, but they’ve got a Dark Elf army builder, Eric Selvig, and and Darcy Lewis represented. Kat Dennings fans rejoice! I’m surprised at Darcy but no Jane Foster – I’m guessing she’ll show up at big box retail, as this series is headed to comic book and specialty retailers.
Jane will definitely make an appearance with Thor in the Marvel Select line. The figures will be sold separately but will each have bases that connect to form a diorama for the figures. Are we supposed to call that BAD (build-a-diorama)?
It’s got to be such a fun job, getting to take pictures of Marvel Select figures on the streets of (I presume) New York City. DST posted new shots of the exclusive battle-damaged Mark 42 Iron Man and the Iron Patriot on the Art Asylum blog. These two are on sale at the MarvelStore.com and DisneyStore.com. Go get them!
Our pal at Marvel, Jesse Falcon, shared the good news that Marvel Super Heroes: What The–?! has a new home page at Marvel.com. With Marvel’s website, it’s been easy to miss when each new episode of MSHWT was posted. Now there’s one spot to find them all.
Can you believe there’s been over 40 episodes made in the past four years?
