It's time once again to thumb through the toy section of this month's Previews, and see what goodies we can uncover.<\/p>\n
Dark Horse has a listing on page 49 for their Hellboy Animated Kate Corrigan Mini-bust<\/b>. Kate is the most overlooked member of the team, so it's nice that she's finally getting some love.<\/p>\n
On page 124, you'll find the Superman vs Doomsday Collector Set<\/b>, which features the previously released DCD figures with the Death of Superman<\/i> trade paperback. Though there are better figures available, this is still a better buy than page 125's crummy Superman vs Doomsday animated figures<\/b>. At least they're in 4\" scale.<\/p>\n
Page 127 shows off Batman & Son Series 1<\/b>. The Joker looks nice enough, but the rest just fails to capture the imagination. Hey, just like Grant Morrison's run on the book!<\/p>\n
Have you missed out on the big popular characters from Alex Ross' newest toy line? Then get the Justice<\/i> box set<\/b> on page 129.<\/p>\n
World of Warcraft<\/b>! Everybody loves it! DC is selling its toys on on page 130 and 131!<\/p>\n
Seriously, Afro Samurai<\/b> needed toys already? If you absolutely must have a Samuel L. Jackson-voiced cartoon character, you can find them on pages 132 and 133.<\/p>\n
Finally, the most overlooked branch of the US military - the Coast Guard - gets some love from McFarlane's Military Series 5<\/b>. You can find these guys on pages 166 and 167.<\/p>\n
Can you believe they're up to MLB Series 18<\/b> already? That number seems high. Unless page 170 is lying to us.<\/p>\n
The figure we told you about first is listed on page 189 - DST's Zombie Spider-Man<\/b>.<\/p>\n
There are a ton of Spider-Man Minimates<\/b> on page 193: two series of movie two-packs, and a five-piece box set. If you want Hydro-Man, the box is the only place to get him.<\/p>\n
Anime fans might like the Bleach two-pack<\/b> on page 431.<\/p>\n
Further down the same page, Futurama Series 1<\/b> is listed. Fry is old, but Zoidberg is new, and they both come with a piece of the series BAF, the Robot Devil. BUY!<\/p>\n
There are some new Pokemon<\/b> toys listed on page 433, but they STILL haven't made either of the two characters yo really wants. Pity him and his cartoon nerdery.<\/p>\n
Mezco throws another stange product into the market on page 434: Underdog<\/b>. Speed of lightning, roar of thunder, all that. Weird.<\/p>\n
Superhero Squad Fantastic Four<\/b> is available on page 436, finally revealing the long-promised Sue Storm figure.<\/p>\n
Holy crap, there's an AC\/DC two-pack<\/b>? Shouldn't this be bigger news? As in \"ever mentioned before now?\"<\/p>\n
Grr! Still on page 436, SOTA has finally solicited their Darkstalkers<\/b> figures. Why \"grr?\" Because it's Dimitri and Lord Raptor, leaving us still Felicia-less. How about John Talbain? Or the mummy thing?<\/p>\n
NECA's two God of War<\/b> figures are on page 438, along with a new Iron Maiden: Phantom of the Opera<\/b> figure and 12\"ers of Lara Croft<\/b> and Leonidas<\/b>.<\/p>\n
There are new Buffy figures on page 442: a Previews-exclusive Kendra<\/b> and this series actual offerings, Kennedy and Willow<\/b>. You remember Kennedy? Yeah, no one else does either. The figure's crappy likeness doesn't help.<\/p>\n
NECA continues on page 444, with the new Cult Classics Hannibal Lecter<\/b> and Harry Potter<\/b> figures - the latter available in both 7\" and 3\u00bd\" versions.<\/p>\n
On page 446, you can pick up Pee-Wee's Playhouse<\/b> figures if you have brain damage or something. Brain damage picked up in a boxing ring, like the figures in Rocky Series 5<\/b>. How can Jakks solicit 5 when they couldn't even get series 3 into the States?<\/p>\n
Does anyone like those 8\" Mego-style dolls? DST seems to think so, if their Star Trek<\/i> Kirk & Klingon<\/b> set on page 446 is any indication.<\/p>\n
Now that Art Asylum is making 2\" Star Trek Minimates<\/b> (page 448), it shouldn't be long before they reuse Spock's hair piece to make Namor.<\/p>\n
The new Star Wars Galactic Heroes<\/b> on page 450 have a lot of nice offerings. Leia in her bounty hunter disguise, a crimson guard... woo!<\/p>\n
