2 on Mezco's One:12 Batman: Sovereign Knight Onyx Edition is amazingWhen I first became aware of Mezco, I wasn't that impressed. For one thing, I wasn't all that interested in collecting figures (of any kind). But beyond that, I suppose I just lumped Mezco's popular One:12 line in with the wide range of brands offering 6-inch figures with interchangeable parts. But boy, was I wrong.…
DC’s cast of colorful characters are nothing if not malleable. Years of creative Elseworlds stories, Batman Ninja, Gotham City Garage, Bombshells—I could go on, but you get the picture. So while I couldn’t help but laugh when I first saw Funko’s Primal Age line of ancient, warrior-clan DC action figures, I wasn’t really surprised. After…
Funko’s Pop! vinyl collectibles are a worldwide phenomenon, and even if you have no interest in comic books or other nerdery, you’ve likely seen them around and recognize their distinctive styles—even if you don’t know what they’re called. But Pop!s aren’t all Funko does, and they’ve seen great success with the Dorbz, Pint-Sized Hero, and…
Soap Studio took to Facebook this week to show off some more of its upcoming 1/12 scale Two-Face figure from The Dark Knight. Announced over a year ago, Soap Studio seems to finally be moving ahead on its promised Dark Knight line. Also shown previously, but still not released, have been Bane, Bruce Wayne, Batman, and…
Everyone is getting into a party mood for Batman's birthday, and that includes LEGO! Six new Batman LEGO sets have been announced celebrating the Caped Crusader, his vehicles, and his enemies. The sets come out at various points throughout the rest of the year and at various price points. Even if you're just a minifigures…
If you've ever been to any flavor of Comic Con, then you know that there are a few universal truths. For example, one cannot throw a disparaging glare without hitting a Harley Quinn. One also cannot throw a Harley Quinn without hitting some manner of vinyl collectible. Funko's Pop! line is clearly the favorite in…
Hiya Toys is back with another batch of its Injustice 2 figures. Injustice 2 certainly has given us some interesting designs, and now Hiya Toys is showing us the painted versions of its next four figures. All figures are 3.75-inches tall and have suggested retail prices of $19.99. Red Hood Available on Entertainment Earth Red…
Jada Toys has been producing lots of DC-related merch for years, from their awesome Batmobiles, to their Nanofigs, to the stylized Metals line. Cool stuff. I've never gotten my hands on any of it until now (with the exception of some very lately-acquired BvS Metals), though. After connecting with Jada at Toy Fair, I heard…
One of our favorite things to do at Toy Fair is to just wander the aisles and see what treasure we may find. This year with an eye out for the Bat symbol, it turns out you find it everywhere. We skipped one or two items we saw, but when you find a booth that…
One thing that sometimes happens at Toy Fair is you know you aren't getting the full picture. In the case of LEGO and Batman this year, that certainly seemed to be the case. The two lone sets on display were 76116 "Batsub and the Underwater Crash" and 76117 "Batman Mech vs Poison Ivy Mech." Both…
Toy Fair is a great place to see the biggest brands in the Batman game showcasing new products, but it also presents a fantastic opportunity to discover new players in the market. YuMe has been producing licensed merchandise for Warner Brothers properties for some time now, but later this year, they will be releasing some…
Entertainment Earth has had its all-wood toy line, Pin Mates, for some time now. While it has done a simple vehicle here or there, and has even done a Batmobile in a very simplified form, the company showed off something else entirely at Toy Fair this year. Releasing later this year will be a version…
DC Comics’ partnership with Walmart stores has seen some great content released in a relatively short period of time. For around the cost of a normal comic, their 100 Page Giants give a brand new story from some of the industry’s hottest talent, plus several more “back issues” worth of related material. Not a bad…
There's so much to see at ToyFair that it's tough to see it all in four days. But if the bright primary colors of our favorite DC heroes hit our eye, we have to stop and take a look. That led us to Enesco's booth, where the Justice League and some of its greatest villains…
Mattel is winding down its DC operations as Spin Master and McFarlane prepare to take over in 2020, but that doesn't mean nothing is happening. With one year left to go for figures - outside of DC Superhero Girls - Mattel is going to treat us to final figures. From Multiverse to Shazam, there were…
If we're seeing any trend at Toy Fair 2019 in regards to Batman, it's a lot of acknowledgment for the 1966 TV incarnation of Batman. From the Batmobile to Batman himself, it seems as though it's everywhere we go on the show floor. Mezco had a good mixture of 66 Batman, 89 Batman, and some…
Toy Fair is way bigger than comic book characters, but the footprint for comic-based toys—and in particular toys and collectibles based on Batman and the wider DC Universe—is huge. And one of the biggest toes in that footprint is Diamond Select Toys. Their lines of DC Gallery PVC statues, resin busts, and Vinimates are already…
Toy Fair 2019 is well under way, and while DC let the cat out of the bag on most of their new stuff yesterday, it was still great seeing it all up close and personal in real space. You can get the details on the new products at the link above, but if you want…
With Toy Fair just hours away from kicking off, DC Collectibles has shared some information about two new product lines it will be introducing. Revealed exclusively via The Hollywood Reporter, the two new lines are completely new areas for the company. First up is DC ¡Lucha Explosiva!. This new line will see your favorite DC…
Shazam! may not have a second trailer, but the next DC film has merchandise. Shazam! action figures have been spotted in the wild. Twitter user @sklyerc33 found Shazam and Doctor Sivana from the DC Multiverse line at a local Walmart. Mattel has done an excellent job with these figures. Shazam and Doctor Sivana actually look like…
