After Mattel’s Mattypalooza panel (video coming soon), they put out a bunch of the new figures that they revealed, including the Eternian Guard army builder 2-pack.

And somehow, Mattel and the Four Horsemen managed to make the biggest sissy in She-Ra Princess of Power one tough looking badass. Yes, I’m talking about Bow. If they can do that with him, then I’d bet they can turn any of those girl dolls into figures I will be happy to add to my ever-expanding MOTUC collection.

San Diego Comic-Con 2010 – Mattel DC Universe Panel

Mattel held its DC Universe panel at San Diego Comic-Con on Friday. We caught the presentation in its entirety.

Some highlights for me:

  • Jonah Hex in DC Universe Classics wave 16! That’s the top of my list for DC, and I’m replacing Hex with Sgt. Rock for my most wanted list.
  • Corrected Sinestro in his classic blue costume – the 5-pack Sinestro head on Hal Jordan body isn’t doing it for me, so I’ll be psyched if they fix this by putting Sinestro on a more suitable body.
  • Ch’p (or is it the other little furry Lantern?) – hey, could this pave the way for a Dex-Starr, the Rage Kitty?

San Diego Comic-Con 2010 – Hasbro Marvel Panel – Iron Man Legends and Marvel Legends Reveals

During their Marvel panel at San Diego Comic-Con today, Hasbro announced that in 2011 we would see an Iron Man Legends 6-inch line with broad distribution. This would lead in to 2012, with a relaunch of Marvel Legends in the 6-inch scale.

Long-time Marvel Legends fans will remember Crimson Dynamo and Titanium Man – they were first announced at Toy Fair in 2009 and then were removed from their display booth before the opening of San Diego Comic-Con last year. We’ve seen test shots that were sold on eBay since then, but this is the first time we’ve seen Hasbro make a definitive statement that these will hit shelves – well, at least since the first time at Toy Fair.

San Diego Comic-Con 2010 – Mattel DC and Mattypalooza Panels – Ch’p and Weapons Rack Teasers

I had hoped to have video of Mattel’s DC Universe and Mattypalooza panels yesterday, but between my slow laptop and the even slower hotel network, they weren’t done uploading by this morning. In the meantime, here’s the teaser images of the Green Lantern Classics Ch’p and the Masters of the Universe Classics Weapons Rack from the end of each panel presentation.

We’re slowly uploading our video from the Mattel DC Universe panel from earlier today – the hotel wireless network is “the little engine that can’t” right now. While you’re waiting on that, here’s pictures from the new DC figures put out today – we have DC Universe Classics wave 16, Green Lantern Classics, the Legion of Super Heroes (at least what has been sculpted thus far), and a new figure in the All-Star repaint category for Toys R Us.
