SDCC 2014: Icon Heroes Announces Princess of Power Letter Opener and Star Trek Book Ends

Icon Heroes has sent us info on two exclusives for SDCC 2014. It’s too bad Masters of the Universe Classics doesn’t have a 12-inch female figure, as the previous Icon Heroes Swords of Power letter openers work great with Tytus and Megator.

Hello we are pleased to announce 2 exciting exclusives for San Diego Comic Con, both to be sold at the Action Figure Xpress booth #3345!

First we have the She-Ra Filmation Sword of Protection Letter Opener.  Wield the power of a princess in your hands with the Masters of the Universe™ She-Ra™ Power Sword™ Letter Opener by Icon Heroes. Complete with gem, this sword of protection approximately measures 7”H x 1.4”W x .3”D and weighs 3 oz. Made of sturdy zinc alloy metal, this Masters of the Universe™ She-Ra™ Power Sword™ Letter Opener is a great addition for any She-Ra® fan. Fully compatible with the He-Man™ and other Masters of the Universe™ line of Power Sword™ letter openers. The massive bone base measures approximately 16.5″L x 13.5″W x 4.4″H.  $20.00 and limited to just 1,000 pieces worldwide.  Attendees may preorder and pick up at the show at http://www.shopafx.com/7-93573-70075-9-pup.html.

Last is the Star Trek The Original Series Yellow Logo Bookends Set.  Secure your favorite books or DVDs on your journey into space: the final frontier with these stylish Star Trek Logo Bookends by Icon Heroes. Together the two ends measure approximately 6.5” H x 7.25” W x 4” D and weigh approximately 6 pounds. Made of sturdy poly stone, each piece is meticulously hand painted. Easily recognizable, these Logo Bookends are sure to be a great addition to any Star Trek collection.  $80.00 and limited to just 150 sets worldwide.  Attendees may preorder and pick up at the show at http://www.shopafx.com/7-93573-70081-0-pup.html.

SDCC 2014: Diamond Select Toys Announces Days of Future Past Marvel Minimates Exclusives and More

Banking on the success of Fox’s X-Men: Days of Future Past hit movie, Diamond Select Toys have announced a comics-based Marvel Minimates boxed set for San Diego Comic-Con, featuring Wolverine, Kitty Pryde, Mystique and a Sentinel. Great choices to tie in to the movie, but I don’t recall Mystique featuring prominently at all in the comic event – but then again she wasn’t being played by J-Law back then and like Wolverine, my memories can’t be trusted. DST is also making an accompanying comic book cover recreating Uncanny X-Men #141, available separately, featuring the Marvel Minimates in place of the comic book characters.

There usually are more Marvel Minimates exclusives during SDCC, and perhaps there are still more to come through DST’s distribution partners. DST also announced a Walking Dead Minimates set, a Sin City Marv exclusive figure, and more from Star Trek, Star Wars, Godzilla, and Jay and Silent Bob.  Just over a month to go. Are you getting excited yet for SDCC?
