Elite Macho Man Slim Jim SDCC 021

OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAHHHHHHH – SNAP INTO IT!

Need a little excitement? Well snap into a Slim Jim styled Macho Man WWE Elite figure!  San Diego Comic Con is right around the corner and one of Mattel’s exclusives this year is the peak of what a con exclusive should be – awesome figure, mass appeal theme, retro vibes.  The Macho Man is back with an outfit matching his look from the 80s Slim Jim commercials complete with an  animal print faux leather jacket (with tassels), matching cowboy hat, super rad sunglasses and not one but TWO epic Slim Jim accessories that he can hold.  This is all wrapped around a solid WWE Elite mold for the figure complete with TrueFX digital paint on the head.  To cap off the awesomeness, his packaging is a replica of the Slim Jim box you’d see sitting on a counter at 7-11 making it easy to grab your tasty meat snack.

Bottom line, this one was perfectly executed and I’m super happy they did it.  Even if you aren’t into wrestling figs regularly as a collector this one is worthy for anyone’s shelves.  Mattel sent through a copy early for us to check out, read on to check out over 55 HD images of Macho Man beating down his enemies with Meat Snacks!

For those who can’t attend SDCC – He’s available to purchase at Entertainment Earth starting today! He’ll ship after the show sometime in August.  You can order yours here.

The 1/7 scale statue will stand just over 9″ tall. Karin is set for release in November. The price will be priced about $89.99. You can see the new photos after the jump.

Karin dons the BISHOUJO statue line with her “ojousama” (snobbish rich girl) presence, depicted in her signature haughtily laughing pose!

This figure perfectly depicts Karin’s notable characteristics from the detail in the curls of her always-perfect hair, to the sophistication and confidence in her stance and pose that can be seen all the way down to her fingertips. Karin is sculpted to showcase her muscular yet soft physique which depict her high combat abilities, while also staying true to her unique personality and physical attributes.

You can almost see her “Kanzuki-ryuu martial arts” fighting style that she had performed on her opponents prior to her ensuing laughter.

Line her up next to STREET FIGHTER BISHOUJO Sakura -ROUND 2- that will be released in December, 2019 to display both of the rivals!

NECA Poster Godzilla 019

The iconic creature known as Godzilla originally debuted in Japan in 1954 as Gojira. The film featured groundbreaking visual effects, a haunting score, and a timely story of nature punishing man for experimenting with nuclear weaponry. The film was brought to North America in 1956 and renamed Godzilla: King of the Monsters. The film was re-edited, with a number of scenes and plot points removed. Filmmakers inserted actor Raymond Burr into the film as American journalist Steve Martin, who functioned as the lead of the Americanized version of the movie. A striking poster was released to advertise the film, and it has become one of the most recognizable pieces of art for the U.S. release of the film.

When NECA struck a deal deal directly with TOHO, it gave them a bit more freedom in what they could produce. One of the first items that NECA showcased under the new license was a Godzilla inspired by the original 1956 theatrical poster for the film. Today we have a first look at the new Godzilla 1956 Movie Poster Version! Our friends at NECA have sent over the figure, and we have a full photo gallery and review. Check them out after the jump.
