Marvel Select Storm, Jane Foster, and Lizard on Sale Today Only at Entertainment Earth

Three Marvel Select figures from Diamond Select Toys are on sale for today only. Storm is in her classic, first appearance costume – well, her first appearance after she appeared sans costume showering the farmlands of her home village, where she was considered a goddess. Jane Foster is from Thor: The Dark World and is one half of a matched pair with Thor. Their bases combine to form a larger diorama. And Lizard is from his modern comic appearances.

Prices on Marvel Select have been creeping up (just like with all figures). These are on sale for 35% off, for today only. Happy shopping!

Hot Toys Teases All Five Guardians of the Galaxy

As if I wasn’t hyped enough for the Guardians of the Galaxy movie, opening August 1, Hot Toys has to stoke the fires by teasing not one, but all five of the rag-tag team. Last time they did this it was for the Hot Toys Avengers line-up – but that already had three bankable franchises behind it. Hot Toys must think Guardians is a pretty sure thing. Awesome!

Marvel Studios’ upcoming summer blockbuster, Guardians of the Galaxy, will expand the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos! The space adventure film will follow Starlord Peter Quill and a team of disparate misfits—Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon, Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer to save the galaxy!

Hot Toys The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Electro 01

I have not seen The Amazing Spider-Man 2 yet, but have seen some of the previews and have the 6-inch figure from the Hasbro Spider-Man Legends line. The design is a big departure from the big-screen-unfriendly green and yellow costume from the comics, but is a bit too reminiscent of Mr. Freeze from the horrible Joel Schumacher Batman & Robin to give me good feelings about the movie. For those of you who’ve seen it – how was it?

Still, the figure looks to be incredibly rendered by Hot Toys, and with the addition of LED lights in what looks like both the head and hands, this should be a visually engaging figure for the shelves of Amazing Spidey 2 fans. I’m not sold yet (and probably won’t be unless the movie blows me away), but if you are, you can pre-order him when he shows up at Sideshow Toys. Last I checked, he’s not yet there.
