Hey, remember that Dragon Ball World Tour Exclusive SSGSS Vegito from a couple years ago?  It even had a SDCC specific packaging variant?  And it used the old Vegito body with new colors?  Well, forget that one because now it’s coming in a full retail release using the newer body articulation styles, new head(s) and at least one new accessory.  Tamashii Nations have teased him out on Instagram with the promise of more at NYTF this weekend (tomorrow).

“DC COLLECTIBLES ENTERS THE NEW DECADE BY RETURNING TO THE NAME ON WHICH IT WAS FOUNDED, DC DIRECT”

Looks like DC Collectibles are returning to their roots with a name change back to their founding name, DC Direct.

DC Collectibles, known for its iconic lines of collectibles, statues and action figures, directly from the source, is returning to the name on which it was founded, DC Direct. The move to rename reaffirms DC Direct’s commitment to source DC material and validates the authenticity of being truly “from the source”.

AEW NYTF Ex Jumbo Card Front

Jazwares and All Elite Wrestling have revealed a new line of wrestling action figures.  Lead by Chis Jericho, the new league features a mix of new and old talent and is currently airing on TNT in the USA.  Now they are getting figures to match with the Unrivaled line.  They look to be 6 inch scale and have a full range of articulation, plus 3d scan face tech.  There is also a ring scheduled for later in the year.  These guys seem to fit in with Mattel WWE figures as of now, though until side by sides pop up we can’t 100% tell.  Read on to check out the first pics and the official press release!

Jurassic Park Amber Owen Blue 39

Mattel is kicking off collector level Jurassic Park/World at the 6 inch scale with the Amber Collection. They teased them starting at SDCC 2019, and are now trickling out to retailers. Ian Malcolm is in the wild, and now Owen Grady and Velociraptor Blue are hitting. Blue is in scale with Owen as well, making it a great pair for display. Both feature a full run of articulation worthy of modern collector lines. Plastic is hearty and holds up to constant movements, hand switching and posing. Paint on Blue is fantastic, nice and matte, clean application. Owen’s paint is solid but nothing fancy. He’s using digital printing on the face – it’s an average execution, not as sharp as original prototypes.  The star here in the end is Blue – it’s a great articulated Dino at the 1/12 scale. Paired with the others in non specific paint, it could make a great pack display.

We’ve run both Owen and Blue through a set of standard and fancy shots after the break courtesy of Entertainment Earth, read on to check them out!

Both are in stock at Entertainment Earth, hit them up to grab your copies!

Mythic Legions Wasteland Figures

Time for another round of random Mythic Legions galleries! Today we are taking a look at several from the recent Wasteland wave, Purrrplor, Kronnaw and Cassia plus one from further back – Cowarross. All except Cassia are homage figures referencing characters from Masters of the Universe – a line that The Four Horsemen have been working on for years for Mattel and Super 7. Purrplor takes Panthor, Cowarross takes Battle Cat and turns them into humanoid cats Thundercats style. Kronnaw is a Trap Jaw homage using a warrior body with a skull head, in classic Trap Jaw colors.

Cassia is just a female warrior from the Mythic Legions lore that I wanted to build out small ranks of cool figures here. She comes with a fur cape that is boss and pairs well with Templar or other warriors from the line.

I’ve been grabbing random pieces from each new wave, ignoring actual backstory just to have a cool set of 1/12 scale figures repping on the shelves. The MOTU homages are what caught my eye initially but the line up has grown here without getting crazy. It’s a fun run every couple months without the need for OCD level completionist goals. For me anyway. :)

Check out our set for these four after the break! You can grab some of the next wave of figures now via pre-order over on Store-Horsemen.com.
