DC Universe Classics Cosmic Odyssey John Stewart by RoboKillah

DC Universe Classics Custom John Stewart with DCD Guy Gardner, DCD Kilowog, and Hal Jordan

Those of you who have known me for a while know that I am a big Cosmic Odyssey fan. And while many people think that DC Universe Classics is a toy line paying homage to Super Powers, my fandom has helped me realize the incontrovertible truth that DCUC is actually a toy line for Cosmic Odyssey*.

However, long before DCUC Wave 11 was announced, my collection was sorely missing two characters – the Green Lantern John Stewart and the Martian Manhunter J’onn J’onnz. When RoboKillah from the Fwoosh made his custom John Stewart, I knew that I would need to enlist him to create one for me in the costume John wore in Cosmic Odyssey. It wasn’t easy, but me sending him fodder unsolicited combined with my incessant whining resulted in this fine custom.

Huge Mattel WWE Update: Series 1 Press Pics and Series 2 Sneak Peek

It’s been a long dry spell since Mattel surprised the wrestling collecting community in February, when it announced it would be taking over the WWE license from long-time holder JAKKS Pacific. There was hardly a trickle of news until they teased us last month with a press release and a couple of pictures.

Now, with January 1 right around the corner, Mattel has opened the floodgates. These pics were released through their new Facebook page for Mattel / WWE. Didn’t know they had a Facebook page? It was news to me too.

DC Universe Classics Color of Fear Two-Pack Romat-Ru and Karu-Sil

DC Universe Classics Color of Fear - Karu-Sil and Romat-Ru

The DC Universe Classics Color of Fear set is the penultimate (nice word, right?) 2-pack to be offered on MattyCollector.com. The previous 2-packs, Space Heroes and Battle for Earth 3 didn’t quite meet Mattel’s expectations (they are still available as of this writing) so after this set and next month’s Animal Instincts 2-pack, there’s nothing planned for the forseeable future.

The good news is that this has been the fastest-selling 2-pack thus far. If this and Animal Instincts do well, we might see more down the line.
