Action Figures and Toys

Looking for a new Darth Vader helmet? We won’t ask why, don’t worry. But we will tell you that there’s a pretty awesome one coming up pretty soon from Hasbro. It’s a part of the Black Series, and might be the most detailed, wearable Vader helm ever.

Spider-Man joins Mezco’s One:12 Collective series with a figure that’s every bit what you’d expect. A heaping helping of great accessories is highlighted by an awesome sculpt and terrific costuming.

Diamond Select Toys has a pair of new Marvel Select figures ready to go for this week’s Infinity War release. Spider-Man and the film’s big-bad himself, Thanos are heading to retail this weekend.

The malevolent New God Darkseid is coming to the One:12 Collective, but you knew that. What you probably didn’t know is that the DC Comics villain will be the first entry in Mezco’s line that’ll have a polystone composition.

Is Toys R Us staying open in the great white north? It’s a possibility as news broke this week that a huge purchase offer has rolled in from a Canadian company.

Mezco continues to post One:12 Collective figures this year. This time with yet another great-looking Marvel offering. A comics-based Blade is ready for pre-order right now.

It’s as very special Friday the 13th, because Jason is coming home. The One:12 Collective version of the famed movie series’ main monster is available to pre-order from Mezco Toyz.

Toy-maker Jakks Pacific is about to launch their Mega Man action figure lineup, and it all starts with the Blue Bomber himself. Mega Man is up for pre-order right now at Entertainment Earth.

Pacific Rim Uprising hits theaters this month, but that’s far from all you’ll be seeing from the property. Diamond Select has a monster amount of figures and more set to hit shelves. And the action figure onslaught is going to last all year.

We’ll have to put this one in the “weird but true” file. Retailer Entertainment Earth is actually taking pre-orders for a vintage Star Wars figure. It’s Jabba’s little pet/pal Salacious Crumb. Yes, that’s a little odd, but it’s plenty cool too.

Playmobil expands their Ghostbusters figure/set line with an animated The Real Ghostbusters wave. Each figure comes with a vehicle, a ghost, and heaping helping of nostalgia.

Steady yourself, that Janosz Poha figure you’ve always wanted is finally -at long last- available. So are GBII Egon and Winston, and all of the above come with parts to build the firehouse’s facade.

A five pack of Ghostbusting goodness? The One:12 Collective’s latest is a five pack, including all four ‘Busters and Slimer. And yes, it’s finally available for pre-order.
