I’m not one to buy expensive collector toys, but it’s a habit I wouldn’t mind starting with Hot Toys’ upcoming 1989 Batman figures. The detail is amazing, and of course the figures come with an insane collection of extra heads, hands, weapons, and accessories. These figures run about $250 a pop, and you can preorder Batman and The Joker at Sideshow Collectibles.

I don’t know who decides what characters need to get turned into expensive collectibles over at Sideshow, but whoever thought of Captain Hook from Disney’s Peter Pan deserves a cookie. This ‘premium format figure’ features real cloth and the freaking crocodile and is probably way out of my price range, but damn. I want this guy.
He comes out soon, so make sure to pre-order yours at Sideshow Collectibles because they sell out of everything quickly.
In anticipation of the Horrible Night Out at the IMAX in Indianapolis tonight, I broke out my Tron Mickey Mouse vinyl figure from Sideshow Collectibles and snapped some photos. I have mixed feelings about vinyl collectibles. If they were cheaper I’d probably own a lot more, and in the case of Tron Mickey Mouse, I wish he lit up. Sideshow sent this to me a while back and I wanted to hold off until Tron Legacy was out to publish anything.
There’s not much to review with vinyl figures, so I’ll let the photos speak for themselves.
Sidenote: It’s a testament to Tron Guy’s viral popularity that when I look at this it makes me think of Tron Guy Mickey Mouse more than Tron Mickey Mouse.
Sideshow Collectibles just sent out their latest newsletter, and this time they gave us a glimpse at the Leonardo Comiquette that will be available for pre-order soon. It looks amazing as always, but part of me just wants them to start a line of retro-TMNT figures and statues based on the 80s show, but you probably already knew that.
Starting tomorrow, Sideshow Collectibles is making their second TMNT Comiquette available for preorder, and it’s eveybody’s favorite grouch, Raphael. These tend to go quickly, so if you want one you should probably preorder as soon as possible.
