Hot Toys is branching off its movie line and starting to make more video game figures.  Hot Toys is a high end collectable company focusing on 12 inch figures.  The weapons and accessories are well sculpted and the figures are considered to be the best in the industry.  They retail from $150 – $200.  Some of the figures like the Original Batman Begins Costume go for as high as $600. 

Their next video game line will be from Hideo Kojima’s Metal Gear Solid (MGS).  The franchise has a huge following so grab these figures when it’ll be ready for pre-order.  I’m …

Hot Toys has just released a pic of Bruce Lee’s headsculpt on their FB page.

The likeness isn’t 100% spot on but I like how they captured his cocky smile.  I’m sure this is still  work in progress and the final version will be more awesome!  Hot Toys is getting crazy buying up as many licenses as possible including Sucker Punch, Captain America and Metal Gear Solid.…

The 2009 G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra movie figures set a new standard in the line with great detail, a load of accessories and excellent packaging.
Continuing this is the new line from Hasbro for The Pursuit of Cobra.

The Pursuit of Cobra line gives more of a realistic feel to the classic characters with the inclusion of new Joes and Cobras. The line appears more than realistic though, for the first time Cobra Command seems to outweigh the Joes. The “army” appears to be far stronger than being just a bunch of nameless, faceless scrubs for the Joes to …

In 1985 a favorite stinky figure was released for Masters of the Universe. Stinkor whose plastic was molded with patchouli oil stunk up homes all over the world.

Created by recoloring Mer-Man, Stinkor was given the paint scheme of black with white stripes giving him the appearance of a skunk. Recolored armor from Mechaneck gave Stinkor a cool breathing apparatus so he didn’t stink himself out.

Having one of the coolest and very memorable weapons, Stinkor came with a bright blue shield which was a repaint of the battle worn piece that came with the Castle Grayskull weapons rack.

This find …

In the early 90’s the character Bane came out of nowhere and in a few comic stories he freed all of the villains from Arkham, plotted the destruction of Batman and then finished the job by breaking Bruce Wayne’s back.

Many action figures have been made depicting this brute but none as animated as this Justice League Unlimited model.
Sculpted after his appearance in the 4th season of Batman: The Animated Series, Bane is buff, detailed and armed with his VENOM injector. Sporting clenched teeth, his mask and even a spiked collar, Bane looks as though he can take on any …

Here’s a Black Ops Lego video from Keshen8.  

I love the violence!  It’s cartoony but really well made.  The knife throws also looked great.…

From Mattycollector.com and the DC Universe is Temple Fugate, also known as The Clock King.

Molded in the style of the cartoon: Justice League Unlimited, Clock King is pretty standard with his brown suit and tie. His glasses do not sport the hands of a clock, he does not have his hat and no clock-hand walking cane either.

As standard as the Clock King is, he is pretty cool to have for a collection. Due to the sculpt matching the figures from Batman: The Animated series, he fits in well.

The packaging for the Clock King is very basic on the …

This time they outdone themselves!

Battle Cat from the Masters of the Universe Classic’s collection is an amazing version of the character!

Sculpted to resemble the 80’s figure which was a static, hollow shell of He-Man’s fighting green tiger.

Battle Cat comes complete with head armor and saddle. The original look is there, however, the modern touches make this the definitive version of Cringer’s alter ego.

The detail is awesome–from the carving and molding of fur, to the paint scheme of green with yellow stripes. The eyes and mouth are detailed also. The new improvements are simply the articulation. Battle Cat …
