I never got that Mongul single release, and I've been wanting a regeneration suit Superman for a while, so I'm gonna try to get this. I do like this head sculpt, but I am curious about how the head from the overly huge Superman that came with Krypto will look -

Im pretty much done with the line.. just holding out for a single release plasticman, b&r bane (both rumored) and a proper super powers hawkman. Definitely feels like theyre phoning it in even more than usual with the clock running out. I thought for sure last czarnian lobo was going to at least have a retooled version of the spiky haired head from the spacehog set with a new lip biting face (replicating the iconic bisley #1 cover). Instead of a straight repaint with a knife and a terribly underscaled space dolphin. -
Nathan Fillion officially announced at Awesome Con in Washington, D.C. that an animated adaptation of the acclaimed sci-fi franchise Firefly is in advanced development. Fillion shared the news in a panel discussion event/live recording of his “Once We Were Spacemen” podcast. Co-stars Alan Tudyk, Gina Torres, Adam Baldwin, Jewel Staite, Morena Baccarin, Sean Maher, and Summer Glau are all onboard to voice their original roles as well. It is unknown if the character Shepherd Derrial Book, played by the late Ron Glass, will return in any capacity. The animated reboot is being produced under Fillion’s Collision33 production banner, in collaboration with 20th Television Animation, which retains the franchise rights. Marc Guggenheim (DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Arrow) and Tara Butters (Agent Carter, Dollhouse), a married writing-producing team who met through Firefly, are attached as showrunners. A completed script is in place, and the project will be animated by the Oscar and Emmy-winning studio ShadowMachine. Although Joss Whedon, creator of the original series, is not directly involved in the animated project, Fillion confirmed he has received Whedon’s “blessing”. The completed package is expected to be presented to potential buyers in the near future. This announcement follows a week-long social media campaign hinting at forthcoming news. Originally created by Whedon and produced by 20th Century Fox Television, Firefly aired for one season before gaining lasting cult status via DVD sales, comics, and the theatrical release Serenity. The original series followed an outlaw crew aboard the transport ship Serenity, navigating the outskirts of society in the year 2517. The upcoming animated series is set within the timeline bridging the original television series and the film, aiming to expand the established universe while maintaining continuity with existing lore. Here is star Nathan Fillion confirming the good news on Instagram:

There are still some intriguing McFarlane figures coming, despite the Batman-heavy focus of the last wave. There's Classic Poison Ivy, 80s Wonder Woman, and a variety of Supergirl figures that might beat WoT (the movie versions probably won't because of his tendency to make movie figure heads too small). There are some avenues, though, where I'm basically done with McFarlane. If Ivy has green skin for example or the Supergirl figures remain inferior to the B- World of Tomorrow version. I can't imagine he debuts that much stuff at SDCC given he can't keep selling them after December 31. -
To me, they look like tangible, prototypes shot in a studio double lit (not a fan of that lighting lol). You could even see scuff marks on mer-man. Yeah, Teela's face is a little rough (lighting isnt helping either) but, for the most part these are awesome. Imo i think masterverse struggles with both heroic male and female headsculpts......basically anything that isn't a creature but, then again....what about NE Evil-Lyn lol?

Lol i never thought of dhunter as funny, as in trying to be funny, but he does say some things that gets me to laugh. He's probably the top guy for dc multiverse reviews on youtube. Shout out to asoka the geek, brad the dc universe geek & 5poa too. -

There’s a ton more DC figures coming besides these. I want to see the classic Ivy and wonder if B&R Ivy #2 is just a reissue or one of her multiple alternates costumes. I want that Returns Catwoman #2 with battle damaged head. I want to see Nicholson’s 2nd head and I want to know what his Platinum is going to be. I already preordered both months ago from overseas, but no additional images were available. Yep, dHunter is funny as hell sometimes. He’s the only other person Im aware of that also is a completist on the line, although I dont think he has the sdcc Beast Boy figs, so maybe Im the only one that has it all. I know there are others. There’s another Beast Boy coming so Im curious if theyre throw collectors a bone and reissuing at least the regular edition. Theyre both $500-800 on the secondary and there are only 2,000 total. -

He's definitely one of a kind! One of my go to guys as well when a review is needed. Dude is hilarious and honest...great combo for reviews. 5poa and toy shiz are also few of my favorites. Happy collecting everyone! -

Lost Doctor Who Episodes Airing in April
BB_Shockwave replied to ShawnDK's topic in Entertainment News
Wow, awesome news! I need to continue the old series. Kinda got annoyed that so many episodes are missing and only available as audio. -
With all the recent talk of Mattel cutting off the TMNT license, I really, really, reaaallllly hope Mondo is the exception! I am encouraged by the fact that they are the only other company I've seen Mattel allow to make any MOTU figures (that aren't building block or POP!-like) so perhaps that good will carries over to the TMNT brand? I have to have all four turtles, Splinter, Shredder, Bebop, Rocksteady, Krang, April and at least two foot soldiers!

Huge news! Every time another episode is found it feels like an archeological event. -

dhunter is my favorite DC figure reviewer. I don't know if he knows how naturally funny he is! All those comparisons he does and the sheer volume and dedication he has is truly unique! Whenever I need to know how a McFarlane figure measures up, I always go to him. -
According to the BBC, two episodes from The Daleks’ Master Plan, a 12-part series from the First Doctor’s era, have been found in a collector’s stash of vintage films. During the early days of Doctor Who the BBC did not do the best job of archiving the series. So there are episodes from the First and Second Doctor era that are mostly lost to time. Now, thanks to this discovery, the first and third installment of The Daleks’ Master Plan, “The Nightmare Begins” and “Devil’s Planet” will be restored by the BBC and brought to iPlayer in April for UK fans to enjoy. North Americans will have to wait for them to land on Britbox (or use VPN access).

Agree with you 100%. The one person I know of who is a completist is "dhunter reviews" on youtube. He buys two of every Batman related Mcfarlane figure. He's shown his collection before but it must be enormous by now. Happy collecting everyone!! -

It’s a shame they used Chris Reeve’s body for Brandon Routh’s Superman—it’s especially noticeable around the neck—but it’d still be nice to get one. Black Canary turned out really well; her jacket would be perfect for Superboy. I really like that Cowboy (Vigilante) too—I already have the first Lobo, but I might get this one too if the price is right. As for Supergirl... well, I don’t know, she’s actually pretty good, but I prefer the red skirt; maybe there’ll be a version like that someday (Platinum, Gold, or something similar). And finally, the black-suited Superman, with exactly the flaws I expected from McFarlane. But seriously, why couldn’t they have used Icon’s legs? There are no boot tops or a belt on them, and then he’d look just like he does in the comics (I’ll note that Eradicator should have been made that way, too, with this body). Why is even this simple thing beyond Todd’s capabilities? It’s annoying, especially since these are made for adult collectors—they should know that even the smallest details matter to them. Robin is fine too; I hope he gets some accessories as well. I don’t know Bronze Tiger that well, but I like this one; Gangbuster looks like his eyes and mouth were drawn with a pencil. So, we’re looking forward to the next installment. -

Okay that's cool, I mean I'd like to get it, but I always with anything decent from Todd, know it won't be easy, so I just give up. Yeah it's pretty lackluster and terrible TBH.
