Just a quick post before I head back to the show. For DC Universe Classics, Mattel did have wave 19 on display, as well as the complete Legion of Super-Heroes set on hand, but are holding back some more for after their panel on Friday afternoon. I didn’t get to spend a lot of time in their booth, but will be back there over the course of the show.

I passed by the IDW booth to see if Ashley and ThreeA were selling anything and I was surprised to see these 6-inch Star Wars figures in-package. According to Ashley these figures are sample test prototypes to show to Takara. Ashley was kind enough to open the Stormtrooper to show us how articulated the figure is.
I sure hope one day these figures get made, ThreeA and Star Wars would be a great match indeed! Again, to be clear though, ThreeA is not making or selling these figures – they are just for show for Takara.

I know I’ve been posting a lot of Hasbro items tonight. I know Sandman has some Voltron goodness in the works and more, but before I head to bed, here’s the first look at the upcoming vehicle for Masters of the Universe Classics – the Windraider.
This thing is massive, comes with a great stand, and is priced to move at $40. I am pretty sure I see the Four Horsemen’s stamp on this – the Battle Ram the Four Horsemen brought to San Diego Comic-Con last year must have done the trick. The Windraider is scheduled to be available on Matty’s October sale date.
Hasbro is going to continue to have 6-inch figures for their Marvel brands, and as we suspected, some of them will be retailer exclusives for the current Marvel movies, much like Walmart and Kmart had exclusive 6-inchers for the Iron Man movies.
