GOOD MORNING PURSUERS OF PLASTIC!! Let’s take a look at what was announced in the collectibles world this week! 

Now that the world is done (for now) masturbating over the latest Stormtrooper reveal we can talk a little more about it. The Sith Trooper was a surprise announcement the other day and it shows us that we shouldn’t write everything off as fake when we see it. This new trooper has a great design and I am eagerly awaiting to see what their role will be in the new Star Wars film, The Rise of Skywalker. The only collectible you need to see when it comes to this guy is the Hot Toys AND maybe the Bandai Figuarts when it’s revealed. For now I will have to fight the urge not to pre-order this when it drops.

 

After the successful Batman/TMNT team-up movie there was not way we weren’t getting some great figures based on it. DC Collectibles has revealed five new two-packs featuring the borther’s four, the Bat Family and a villains’ one that I’m pretty sure I will snag day one. These will run you about fifty bucks a piece and will come out starting this Fall.

 

Are you surprised? Probably not. Get your hands on the new Funko POP! Mad Men series coming soon. So get your chain-smoking, womanizing ass on over to our affiliate site Entertainment Earth and pre-order them today!

Time travel to the 1960s with your favorite Mad Men characters including Pop! Don Draper, Pop! Peggy Olson, Pop! Betty Draper, Pop! Roger Sterling and Pop! Joan Holloway.

Did you think that LEGO would miss any opportunity to capitalize when it came to Stranger Things? NOPE! You want a Barb minifigure? You better pray to your gods that you can get your collective hands on this SDCC exclusive figure before it hits EBAY!

 

For SDCC, Super 7 is making some great exclusives. Including the ReAction TMNT set and the Metropolis Maria (Star Wars tribute) figure. I love both of these and wish that I still collected this series, but I don’t and won’t have to deal with the disappointment of never owning them. If you are at the big show head on over to the Super 7 booth and check them out!

 

Happy Hunting!
