Mattel Batman Classic TV Series Figures Available to Pre-Order on Amazon.com

The whole assortment of DC Universe Batman Classic TV Series figures are now available for pre-order on Amazon.com. I grew up loving the show, catching it on re-runs almost every day. I’ll admit, when I first heard about the toys, I wasn’t feeling too enthused. After years of collecting muscle-bound action figures, something about getting a not-that-cut Batman wasn’t gelling. But the Rogues Gallery for the show was outstanding, and while the Riddler and Penguin on their own didn’t get me over my hesitancy, the latter reveals of the Joker and Catwoman have gotten me close.

At the current Amazon prices ($15.99 for singles and $29.99 for the 2-pack) these are probably as cheap as you’ll see them – and as Prime products direct from Amazon, you’ll get free 2-day shipping if you are a Prime subscriber or get free regular shipping if you’re not but spend over $25. Amazon has a release date for all figures on August 1. No sign yet of the 1/12 scale Batmobile, but keep your eyes open.

Mattel covers all the burning questions you might have about two of its exclusives for San Diego Comic-Con this year – the Masters of the Universe Classics Comet Brothers, featuring Rokkon and Stonedar, and the DC Universe Classics New 52 Shazam, aka Captain Marvel.

Toy Guru also hits on some that you might not want to know the answers, such as: how do Rokkon and Stonedar poop when in rock form? Answer: convenient butt flap. And: is Captain Marvel’s hood really that big? Answer: yes, but thankfully it’s removable.

Mattel Announces San Diego Comic-Con Exclusive Masters of the Universe Classics Mini He-Man & Skeletor Figures

For their final SDCC exclusive reveal of the week, Mattel unveiled a possible line extension for its Masters of the Universe Classics line – Mini Masters! We had seen stylized mini-MOTU figures previously at San Diego, with the cryptic messaging that they were trying to find a home for this new cute but deadly format. Mattel has found them a tie-in with the popular He-Man: The Most Powerful Game in the Universe download for your iPhone and iPad. (Android users take heart – He-Man is still making his way to Android devices.)

For now, we’ve got He-Man and Skeletor as exclusives – but if they’re popular, maybe we’ll be seeing more next year on MattyCollector.com. Best thing is that these new figures are in scale with the upcoming Masters of the Universe Classics Castle Grayskull. I kid! I KID!

Mattel also announced they’d be bringing the last of the remaining Back to the Future Hover Boards to the show.

Masters of the Universe® Classics Mini He-Man® & Skeletor® Figures

Great things come in small packages! At long last, the fan demanded mini versions of He-Man® and Skeletor®… in a foldout mini Castle Grayskull® diorama package! Each figure has six points of articulation at the arms, legs, waist and neck, and comes with snap-on accessories such as a power sword, shield and havoc staff. He-Man® features a shield with traditional j-hook, allowing it to be held out in front instead of clipped onto his arm!

This product will be available for pre-order at MattyCollector.com on June 4, 2013, to be picked up at San Diego Comic-Con (details to come). It will also be available for purchase at the show, then at MattyCollector.com on August 5, 2013.
