TRANSFORMERS SDCC 2014 EXCLUSIVE

Threezero has finally announced the pre-order for their Atlas Titan figure based on the hit Titanfall game. He’s expensive, coming in at $430USD, but he’s also priced similar to other large figures that have been released by other companies. He’s epic, and if you loved the game, you are going to die for this figure.

BANDAI JAPAN ANNOUNCES STAR WARS LICENSE
One of the biggest surprises for me this week was that Bandai Japan announced the Star Wars license. This allows them to make various action figures, statues, and other collectibles. Their first offerings were on display at the Tokyo Toy Show this past weekend.

STAR WARS BLACK SERIES WAVE 5 AND DELUXE FIGURES PRE-ORDER
Have you started to collect the 6-inch Star Wars Black Series figures and now you’re a little disappointed that you can’t find any good characters in the store?

Apart from that excitement, Hasbro has also put up the standard case of wave 5 figures up for pre-order, along with their first wave of deluxe figures!

STAR WARS HOT WHEELS

EVER AFTER HIGH SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON 2014 EXCLUSIVE
Ever After High made its debut last year and since then it has taken off and become extremely popular. Don’t ask how popular, because I don’t play with girl dolls. BUT, it’s definitely popular enough to warrant a SDCC 2014 exclusive Ever After High Cerise Wolf doll.

CANTINA SHOWDOWN DELUXE STAR WARS BLACK SERIES FIGURE SET
If you collect the Star Wars Black Series figure and buy your toys at retail, you may have noticed Han Solo and Greedo shelf warming just about every store.
