Hot Toys will release 3 Iron-man figures. At about $175 a piece, it would be hard for me to get all three. Now, if I was to get only one, which one should I get? They all look great, and pretty much identical to the film. These figs are 12″ tall, so they are pretty big. Robert Downey’s headsculpt is also included, and he looks pretty realistic.

My first choice is this guy, the ghetto version of Iron-man. I like the bulky look.

My second choice is this one. The metallic, unpainted version. Aka Mark II

This is my final choice …

So there it was, my Batman: Gotham Knight Blu-ray, alone on a small street in Orange County.  I stopped my car to go pick it up.  Pieces were everywhere.  I went straight for the disc to see if it was still intact.  By the luck of the gods, Batman came out in one piece.  But…the same can’t be said about the cover.  Jump for the full details and pics of the surviving pieces.…

Ok, wow, is all I gotta say. After a very disappointing Season 2, the third season premiere is putting Heroes back on track.

Heroes is such a phenomenon that they had a one hour third season premiere special before the actual episode started.  It was like a red carpet extravaganza involving the cast, fans from all over the world, contest winners, behind the scenes footage and sneak peeks.  It was enjoyable to see the cast hanging out with each other as friends compared to seeing them rip each other’s heads off in Heroes.  All the cast members hosting were good except …

Top 10 Superhero Films

1.  Batman Begins (the definitive Batman origin film with Christian Bale as the best ever Bruce Wayne/Batman, the film also has strong support all around, especially from Michael Caine, Gary Oldman and Cillian Murphy, who plays the creepy Dr. Jonathan Crane/Scarecrow)

2.  The Dark Knight (In many ways this is a better film than Begins and I considered making it number 1 on my list, it has a brilliant ensemble cast, better action scenes, a sleeker story, and career best performances from Heath Ledger and Aaron Eckhart…..for the moment though I still prefer Batman Begins because of …

Written by the legendary Alan Moore and drawn cleanly by Brian Bolland, Killing Joke shows us the relationship between Batman and Joker. The book is amazing because of Moore’s storytelling. It gives the reader’s an insight to Joker’s mentality without really giving away his origins. …

Alright folks!  We’re back with the great customizer and co-founder of hockeycustoms.com, Chris.  In last week’s interview, Chris shared his love for action figures.  He also discussed what got him into customized figures.  This week, we discuss his first custom Mighty Muggs, Flash!

NS: What made you decide to customize a Mighty Muggs figure?
C: I don’t really know. I had a couple of hockey customs on the go for a couple of different customers and then my PC crashed, so i was without all my graphics and order lists for about 3 weeks. I was starting to get a …

This past weekend The Dark Knight has passed the $500 million mark domestically.  A good reason to celebrate for comic book fans. 

Anyway, NerdSociety.com caught up with the Dark Knight himself to ask him about what he’s been up to since The Dark Knight came out and how he feels about Harvey, Rachel, and Bill Clinton.  Also, Batman gives advice the nerds out there about sex and the gap.…

Smallville is one of my favorite series on the air.  It’s just about to start its 8th (and most likely, final) season on Thursday, September 18th on The CW Network.  I wanted to take the time to do a top ten list.  These are my ten favorite episodes of the series in order, and as a longtime fan, it wasn’t easy.

Top 10:

1. Run- Clark meets a young version of The Flash in this flashy and fast-paced episode written by Jeph Loeb.  Smallville at its most fun.

2. Red- Clark is exposed to red kryptonite and it changes his personality …

Hasbro’s Mighty Muggs’ were inspired by urban vinyl figures that are wildly popular in Hong Kong and Japan. The vinyl figures are usually very limited and prices can go up as much as $500. Since the prices for these figures are a bit high, it caters to adults. The style is what makes them so interesting: the cute cuddly characters with baggy pants and hip hop poses.…
