Toy News Roundup: ‘Predator’, ‘DC Comics’, And Mattel Begs For MORE!

Another week has gone by, so you know what that means… it’s time for another edition of the Toy News Roundup! Here we round-up all of the most important toy news of the week from our site, and also link you to any toy news that we didn’t cover. Let’s get ready to … RUMBLE!!!

PLAY ARTS KAI
There was lots of Play Arts Kai news this week. We got official images for the DC Comics Variant Batman Color Variant, and the Arkham City Joker and 70’s skin Batman. Pre-Orders are open now for all of these figures.

 

NEW DC COLLECTIBLES SOLICITS
DC Collectibles released their “November 2013” Solicits for products that are due to be released in December and February. Included in these solicits are many of the products that we saw at SDCC 2013, as well as right before SDCC in their press release.

P.S. There’s a spoiler in there. 😉

HOT TOYS HULK ACCESSORIES
Early reviews have been suggesting that the Hot Toys 1/6th scale Hulk figure is lacking accessories (he just comes with 1 pair of extra hands), so a new Chinese company has released a super awesome accessory pack. It’s called the SMASH KIT!

THERMAL VISION DUTCH … AND PREDATORS SERIES 11
We saw them at SDCC 2013, now NECA has released all the juicy details for Predators Series 11. They are going to be coming out this November and it looks like all of the figures are pretty epic with Thermal Dutch, Armor Combat Lost Predator, and Wasp Predator.

SPEAKING OF PREDATORS
Hot Toys and Bloggers are finally ready to present us with some AMAZING photos of the Scar Predator 2.0 1/6th scale figure. This figure is scheduled to be released from Sideshow Collectibles this month.

GREMLINS STRIKE BACK
NECA’s Gremlin Mogwais series 4 figures were shown off at SDCC 2013, but now we can finally take a look at some official images of these cute, cuddly, little guys. Look for them to hit stores this November.

A BADASS NINJA ASSASSIN
Last week in the Toy News Roundup we saw a preview of Sideshow Collectibles’ upcoming Storm Shadow 1/6th scale figure. Well the good news is this guy is ready for pre-orders. Judging by the popularity, he’s not going to be lasting long…

 

 

THE WALKING DEAD TV SERIES 5
McFarlane Toys had a pretty rocky start with their The Walking Dead TV Series figures, but they are back for more with Series 5, and they actually don’t look half bad.

 

MATTEL BEGS FOR SUBSCRIBERS
Mattel has started to reveal some of the most wanted accessories and figures from fans over the years. They have un-cancelled the Damian Wayne Robin to save DCU and they revealed the Power Sword for MOTUC. In the end all the subs are doomed.

 

STAR WARS BLACK SERIES REVIEWS
We have reviewed all of the long anticipated Star Wars Black Series figure this week. They all received pretty good reviews. Check them out here.
