NECA Assassin's Creed Brotherhood Ezio Onyx Figure

Originally posted by Joe Moore @ Toyark.com under Video Game Toy News.

NECA has posted a new photo and some info for their upcoming Assassin's Creed Brotherhood Ezio Onyx Figure.

He’s a natural born killer

Not that Ezio Auditore — the main character in Ubisoft‘s mega-franchise, Assassin’s Creed — was lacking for “sneaky,” but we thought it only fair to capture him at his most stealth yet. From Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood comes this all-new Ezio 7″ action figure in his Onyx Costume!

Released near the end of 2010 to massive acclaim from critics and gamers alike, Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood is the second installment in the huge and winding trilogy (it’s the third game overall in the series; pretty complicated) of Ezio Auditore. It’s a story of death, time, desire, power and, well, even more death, but it’s made for one of the most enjoyable gameplay experiences ever, already influencing countless other games, and NECA is thrilled to be able to bring you this figure that around the office we’ve given the codename “Ezio Onyx.”

It’s a fair enough description of what the figure is — Ezio in his Onyx Costume — but that’s hardly even the beginning of the story when it comes to Ezio Onyx. Standing nearly 7″ tall, he has over 30 points of articulation, from his neck down to the folds in his feet. Not only that, but Ezio comes with a crossbow and has three sets of interchangeable hands, in case one pair get tired holding that crossbow, he’s got backups at the ready!

It slices! It dices!

Coolest of all, just like his Ivory-Costumed counterpart, Ezio Onyx has retractable blades on each of his arms that reenact his trademark stealth attacks! What could possibly go better with a stealth-mode Onyx Costume Ezio action figure than retractable blades? The short answer is nothing. The long answer? Nothing twice.

NECA’s Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood Onyx Costume Ezio figure hits shelves mid-June — though I hear if you check out NECA’s Amazon store, there are some available now. Keep it tuned to your favorite action figure wholesaler for updates on Assassin’s Creed and all your favorites games, movies and more!

In-Package Photos Of Expendables Minimates

Art Asylum has posted some new in-package photos of their upcoming Expendables Minimates.

By now, everyone has hopefully seen the new trailer for The Expendables 2. Even if you’re not a fan of the first one, the trailer is a blow-by blow tribute to the greatest action movies ever made and stars most of America’s greatest action heroes of the past 40 years. (Ladies, did we mention it’s also got that hunk from The Hunger Games?) Well, before you go watch the trailer again, check out the packaging for the first two sets of Expendables Minimates! This summer will bring two four-packs of 2-inch minifigures, one exclusively at comic shops and specialty stores, the other exclusively at Toys “R” Us. Specialty will get Lee Christmas, Hale Caesar, Mr. Church and Tool, while TRU will get Barney Ross, Trent Mauser, James Munroe and Paine. Don’t see your favorite Expendables team member? Well, there will be two more sets coming out this fall with the rest of the team, plus a few of the movie’s new villains! We’ll reveal those soon, but look for the first two sets in early June!

Star Wars fans will finally have their chance to purchase a one of a kind collectible during Star Wars Weekends this year at Disney's Hollywood Studios, their own personalized 8-inch figurine of themselves frozen in carbonite!

Using 3D facial scanning technology, the face of the person is used in place of Han Solo's to create a custom carbonite slab much like what was featured in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. The D-Tech Me Carbon Freeze Me Experience will run from May 18th 2012 through June 16th 2012 during Star Wars Weekends, and is located next to The American Idol Experience at Disney's Hollywood Studios.

Reservations ARE required for this, and may be made by contacting 407-939-8324. The first figure will cost $99.95 plus taxes and shipping ($74.95 for each additional figure) and those who participate will receive a special light-up wristband to further commemorate the experience. They have quoted a 4 week turnaround for people to actually receive their figure.... [Read More]

MTV Geek has gotten an exclusive first look at a new Marvel Select Figure. The new reveal gives us our first look at Marvel Select Rhino.

The Hulk. The Thing. The Abomination. The Juggernaut. Diamond Select Toys' oversized Marvel Select action figures have been dazzling collectors for years, and now they're ready to do it again... with the Rhino! Designed and sculpted by Gentle Giant, the leather-skinned Spider-Man foe stands over 8 inches tall with 16 points of articulation, and is ready to tear through your Marvel Select collection like tissue paper. If you don't feel like having him stomp Spider-Man on your shelf, he will come ready to display in the now-famous Select collector packaging. Pre-order him today at your local comic shop or your favorite online toy store, and look for him to hit stores in early 2013!

MattyCollector 2012 Q&A Answers May 15

Originally posted by Shin Densetsu @ Toyark.com under Toyark Spotlight.

Welcome Toyark members! Today we have a new round of answers for the MattyCollector 2012 Q&A. Check them out below:

1) With the cancellation and restructuring of DCU Allstars, what will become of the two-packs, such as Sinestro Corps Hal Jordan vs Blue Lantern Kyle Rayner? Have they also been cancelled, or are they still being released as planned?
A)There are no current plans for the 2-packs, but we will always continue to explore ways of producing the most compelling collector offerings. Thank you.

2) This question was posted by a member who encountered difficulty in ordering from MattyCollector.com: When is MattyCollector going to get a WORKING website and customer service team?? In January, I noticed that my credit cards were expiring soon so I changed them to an updated one over the phone and told them that I needed these attached to my subscriptions. I ALSO did this online via their website as per their instructions over the phone. It was verified that this was done. Fast forward to today. I get an e-mail from Matty that my Club Lion Force figure didn't ship because my card was declined because they used my OLD credit card. Furious, I called Matty and they tell me that it was "fixed" but it will be delayed by two days when their "automated" system tries again.
A) We are constantly upgrading our website to improve the buying and shipping experience. A new US based CS group is now in place and a subscription page to manage your account should be launching before SDCC (we hope! Still de-bugging it). Nothing is more important.

3) With the canceling of Young Justice 4" figures, is it the end of your efforts, in the 1:18 scale? Or can we expect a different body / articulation / approach in future DC figures thereof that scale? Next year witnesses both the new Man of Steel film AND Superman's 75th anniversary. Its TWICE the media buzz / opportunity to take advantage of a new line of possibly better 1:18 scale figures...
A) Our efforts are never-ending, and we will continue to explore various form factors and scales. We are not making any announcements about 2013 Superman product at this time. Thank you.

4) With Brock Lesnar now back in the WWE, has work started on a WWE Elite figure of him?
A) Well in this case we’ll make an exception: YES! It is turning out awesome.

5) The 2002 version of Teela was a fan favorite character from the cartoon. Since the 2002 style for head sculpts won't be used, is it possible to get a MOTUC figure of Teela, based on the 2002 costume but with a head sculpt using the current style that the 4H uses?
A) It is always "possible" but their really aren't that many differences and when you "Classic-size" the 2002 outfit it is really close to what we have now.... [Read More]
