World War Robot Portable Noir de Plume on Sale 8/19

I still have a guest review of the WWRp Nom de Plume to get published (sorry Ebon!) I missed picking one up of the Noms when the 2010 3A memberships were on sale, so I will probably try to pick up at least one of the Noir de Plumes that will go on sale later today.

For the time zone challenged, 9AM on Friday in Hong Kong is 9PM EST / 6PM PST on Thursday in the United States.

WWRp Noir de Plume is going to be on sale at 20 of August, 9-00 AM Hong-Kong time only at www.bambalandstore.com , price – 40$ + 15$ for EMS shipping, so this time shipping isn’t included. You can buy maximum two and we haven’t heard yet whether combined shipping will be possible.

San Diego Comic-Con 2010 Mezco Exclusive DC Universe Batman and Joker Mez-Itz 2-Pack

Sector1014 returns with a guest review of the SDCC 2010 Mez-Itz 2-Pack featuring Batman and the Joker. Previously, he highlighted the Funko Force 2 DC Universe vinyl figures, which we had missed at the show completely. And a while back, he wrote a great primer on the off-the-wall pick of Kamandi from DC Universe Classics wave 14. What do you think, should we ask him to be a regular here already?

Mezco Mez-Itz Batman Joker SDCC 2010

Ron has been following all the news about Mezco’s new DC line here on AFP since it was announced, and SDCC 2010 brought us our first batch of figs and a look at where the line is going. First out of the gate for the DC 6″ Mez-Itz is the con/web exclusive Batman/Joker two-pack. Both are in classic comic book designs, with Batman displayed in his blue/grey-with-yellow-oval-logo version, and the Joker wearing his trenchcoat (with hat, not pictured above).

San Diego Comic-Con 2010 – DC Universe – Funko Force 2

Sector1014 reports in with some coverage from San Diego Comic-Con with some urban vinyl DC figures from Funko that we missed completely. Also, be sure to check out his primer on Kamandi: The Learn-to-Love-Him Article (I did, and you can too). DC Universe Classics wave 14 should be out soon.

SDCC DC Funko Force 2

One of the best things about going to Comic-Con is finding cool things you’ve never seen before. On Thursday morning I made my way through Funko’s booth and found a new line of DC Universe figures that was a pleasant surprise. According to the guys at the booth, they’re part of a brand new DC Universe line in a new format for Funko called Funko Force 2.0. There were four con exclusives to kick start the DC line (a glow-in-the-dark Green Lantern, two versions of Batman, and a Batgirl–it’s just the paint decos that are exclusive to SDCC, as each of these characters will have regular versions):

San Diego Comic-Con 2010 – Mezco DC Universe Mez-Itz

Mezco was one of my most anticipated stops I had to make on Preview Night at San Diego Comic-Con, primarily for their new line-up of DC Universe Mez-Itz. I’m guessing that a lot of AFP readers aren’t into urban vinyl figures, but I challenge you to look upon these works and rejoice!

While these will see broad release through Diamond and specialty stores, they’ll likely not hit mass market retailers like Toys R Us – because Mattel has such a lock on DC as the master license holder, Mezco had to carve out a very specific niche to be able to produce these.

I’m glad they did. As I’ve said many times, these are compatible with Hasbro’s Mighty Muggs, but the ball-jointed head takes them a step further in the poses and resulting character these emanate. And the designs are a home run – I must have that Sinestro, now!
