This has been announced for April 9th, lol which honestly I can't believe they picked the same day Hasbro is doing their Fan Fest event, but there you go.

Profits are up, and MARS CEO Destro has a whole new look! As owner of his own weapons manufacturing company, Destro is one of COBRA's key members, and likes to look the part. His latest purchase is this sweet new ensemble for important business meetings and wild nights on the town! With leopard-print trim, this new look is exclusive to this Showcase-edition Gallery Diorama of Destro firing his wrist missiles and running through the sewers after a deal gone wrong. This sculpture stands approximately 10 inches tall, is made of high-quality PVC and features detailed sculpting and paint applications. It comes packaged in a full color window box. Limited to 3,000 pieces! You can pre-order this now at our sponsor BigBadToyStore.com for $49.99.

Tomorrow Diamond Select Toys will stream at 12 pm EST their 2021 Toy Fair Showcase where they will be showing off upcoming products.

I wonder why they are doing their event on the same day as the Hasbro Pulse fan fest? Well looks like it'll be a busy day tomorrow as I'm excited about what new Marvel Select figures will be announced, hopefully a Red Hulk is coming!!

Diamond Select Toys today during their Toy Fair virtual event showed off a new Retro Tron 3-pack featuring Tron, Flynn and Sark. These are made to look like the classic Tron figures from released in the 80's with the translucent plastic. This will be offered as a SDCC exclusive. This set of 7" figures which will have special packaging will cost $80.

Not much to be excited about here. The LOTR ones look decent but I'll have to see final products before I decide to buy into them.  Those Karate Kids figure look off. I hope the Titanium Man was suffering from bad posing, it looked better in the promo shots.

Diamond Select are not exactly know for keeping their figures in scale with each other. 

I'm a lot more disappointed in the articulation. Granted, the fight scenes in Cobra Kai aren't exactly on a Jet Li/Jackie Chan level, but DST has to do better than this.

And yes, I get these are probably hastily thrown together proof of concept samples, and may or may not reflect the final figure articulation.

We first told you about this set last month, but now Diamond Select Toys has released official images and details for their upcoming Retro Tron 7" Select boxset.

Visit the far-flung future of 1982! As we approach 40 years of Tron, Diamond Select Toys is looking back to the original Tron toy releases for this new exclusive box set! These three 7-inch figures - Tron, Sark and Flynn - are cast in translucent material to replicate their 1982 action figures, with black-light-reactive printed details. Each comes packaged on a retro-styled blister card, and all three come packaged in a full-color window box. Designed by Yuri Tming, sculpted by Gentle Giant Studios! Limited to 3000 pieces! You can pre-order this set now from our sponsor BigBadToyStore.com.

Strike Fast! Strike Hard! No Mercy! Fans of the Netflix series Cobra Kai can enter their favorite dojo with this debut box set of Cobra Kai action figures! The front of the box shows Johnny Lawrence and John Kreese in the Cobra Kai dojo, but open it up farther and see Daniel LaRusso in the Miyagi-Do Karate dojo! Each 7-inch action figure comes with interchangeable hands and display stands, and the box comes packaged in a protective sleeve. Figures sculpted by Chris Dahlberg and Rocco Tartamella. Package design by Jack Tsai! Limited to 4000 Pieces! You can pre-order these from our sponsor BigBadToyStore.com.
