NATHAN DRAKE Arrives!

June 30, 2012

Uncharted fans can finally own a high-quality, extremely awesome Play Arts rendering of protagonist NATHAN DRAKE. Part of the Kai series, the figure boasts amazing articulation, additional hands and three weapons: the Dragon Sniper, an AK-47 and a pistol. Be forewarned, though: you can only carry two at a time.


KILLER CROC – ARKHAM CITY

June 29, 2012

Though he only made a cameo appearance in ARKHAM CITY, the encounter with Killer Croc in the underbelly of ARKHAM ASYLUM was one of the most nerve-wracking battles in the past few years of video games.

Killer Croc stands about 8 inches tall and features some absolutely incredible detail, from the yellow of his vicious fangs to the speckles of dirt on his asylum-issued uniform. It’s a great addition to any Bat-fan’s collection and a true testament to the quality of DC Direct’s offerings.


Half-Life 2 : GORDON FREEMAN

June 27, 2012

The heroic, bespectacled lead from Half-Life 2 is at last given his action figure dues. Feast your eyes:

The Gordon Freeman action figure from NECA stands about 7 inches tall and comes with some awesome accessories sure to please fans. He boasts 2 sets of interchangeable hands, a crowbar, a bugbomb, and a gravity gun– along with a headcrab. Add that to the amazing detail and you’ve got something pretty special.


Daryn Cooke’s BATMAN BLACK AND WHITE

June 26, 2012

Darwyn Cooke’s most recent foray into comic writing and illustration has been in MINUTEMEN and SILK SPECTRE as part of the controversial Before Watchmen series from DC Comics. This upcoming Batman statue, however, promises to be much less divisive– it’s just plain old awesome.

The black and white statue stands about 7 inches tall and is sure to be one of the most coveted versions in the whole line, with Cooke being one of the best and most popular artists out there. Order now and it ships out in July! Just in time for SDCC…


THOR – PREMIUM FORMAT FIGURE

June 23, 2012

This THOR figure is an incredible work from the folks at Sideshow Collectibles. Standing a whopping 24” tall and designed at the 1:4 scale, Chris Hemsworth’s turn as the God of Thunder is done great justice by one of the best collectibles companies out there. Holding Mjolnir aloft, he cuts an impressive figure on your bookshelf. Plus, he comes with a switch-out head for those who want the pomp and circumstance of the winged helmet versus those seeking a more casual look.


The Amazing Spider-Man Figures

June 22, 2012

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN figures are on their way! Pre-Order now and June will bring the first wave of extremely awesome 3.75 inch figures. Check them out:

Mega-Cannon Spider-Man, Symbiote Strike Spider-Man, Capture Trap Spider-Man, Hydro Attack Spider-Man, Grappling Hook Spider-Man, Symbiote Snap Venom, Glider Attack Green Goblin and Power Arms Dr. Octopus make up the first series of figures and grossly overstate the movie we’re all anticipating this summer– I don’t know how many times Spider-Man will use a mega cannon, but I have the feeling it will be less than once. Still, the figures are pretty rad and you can grab ‘em individually or as a complete set.

The Dark Knight Rises – ALFRED

June 19, 2012

Michael Caine fans, we know you’re out there, and you can now begin rejoicing. In anticipation of The Dark Knight Rises, we’ve got an awesome Movie Masters figure of Batman’s loyal butler, ALFRED. And it’s about time, too. Alfred is arguably one of the most recogniseable, enduring characters in the DC universe and the number of times he’s been commemorated in figure form is far too low.

Plus, who doesn’t just love Michael Caine?
