- McFarlane DC Multiverse Gold Label Platinum Edition Chase of The Spectre, Crisis on Infinite Earths
McFarlane have confirmed a Platinum Edition Chase release of The Spectre from the DC Multiverse line and based on the Crisis on Infinite Earths storyline. The figure is a repaint of the general release with a darker grey suit with Green Lantern symbol. It still features the build-a-figure part for The Monitor. The Platinum Edition should be randomly packed into the cases of the standard release, but McFarlane are also giving US collectors a chance to be drawn to win one through the 'Run Fair' program. Jim Corrigan is The Spectre, the mystical embodiment of divine wrath. Torn between his desire for revenge and his destined role as an instrument of justice, Corrigan fights both the evils of the world and his own base human impulses. The only being on Earth capable of holding his own against the Anti-Monitor, The Spectre buys Earth's other heroes precious time to execute their ultimate plan to save creation.

- McFarlane Warhammer 40k Iron Warrior Chaos Marine, Ymgarl Genestealer, and Blood Angels Reiver Sergeant
The next three releases in McFarlane's Warhammer 40k series were revealed last month at the Warhammer Relics Festival. The figures have now gone up for pre-order at Target in the US for a May 2024 release. The Iron Warriors Chaos Marine is specifically labelled as a Gold Label Exclusive and includes Bolt Pistol, Combat Knife, Power Mace, and Boltgun. The Blood Angel Reiver Sergeant comes with a Bolt Pistol, Grapnel Launcher, Bolt Carbine, and Combat Knife. We also have a Ymagarl variant of the Genestrealer, a figure that has been released as an Artists Proof - but now comes fully painted. The Genestealer features alternative hands/claws for the upper arms. The Reiver Sergeant and Genestealer are not labeled as a Gold Label and that likely means it is a general release with a 'first to market' arrangement with Target. Regardless of Exclusivity status in the US, these figures should hit the UK and other territories as general releases to McFarlane stockists via the Regional Importer. Originally the IVth Space Marine Legion, the Iron Warriors fell to the Ruinous Powers during the Horus Heresy ten millennia ago. Fighting an endless war against the Imperium, they are renowned and feared as specialists in attrition and siege warfare. They advance like a grinding war machine, metal and munitions marching forward beneath the icon of the iron skull, one that strikes fear into the most stalwart defenders.

- S.H. Figuarts Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars, The Phantom Menace
This reveal slipped a bit under the radar earlier this week as it was previewed on April Fool's Day leading many to believe it was a prank. However, we think this is a proper preview of a new S.H. Figuarts Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars The Phantom Menace. The figure has surfaced previously at a 2018 Tamashii Event. Now some 6-years later, it seems we are getting closer to Jar Jar's release. The figure is apparently due to open for pre-order on the 26th of April. To manage our storage costs, news article images are archived after 12-months.

- McFarlane DC Collector Edition Releases of Starfire, Captain Boomerang, and The Penguin
Three of the new McFarlane DC Collector Series figures previewed at WonderCon 2024 have now opened for pre-orders ahead of a June 2024 release. The trio features Starfire, Captain Boomerang, and a Classic Penguin. Starfire is based on her appearance during DC Rebirth and features two energy effects and a flight stand. Captain Boomerang from The Flash includes three sets of hands and a pair of boomerang accessories. Captain Boomerang also features a removable soft goods scarf and coat. And finally, The Penguin from the classic DC Comics will come with alternative hands and his umbrella. Each of these Collector Edition releases also comes with a collector art card and with its own display stand. Each figure also has a Platinum Edition Chase version with a different decor. These are going to be randomly packed into the main cases. Platinum Chase Edition An alien princess in exile, Koriand’r of Tamaran escaped a lifetime of brutality as a slave and lab rat for the Citadel and the Psions. Years after manifesting incredible energy powers, she led a revolt and escaped to Earth. An engine of righteous fury, she fights to ensure no other beings have to endure the pain and indignity that ruined her life. Platinum Chase Edition George “Digger” Harkness is a mercenary and killer with an aptitude for boomerangs and other projectiles. Antagonistic and often annoying to those around him, he has fought The Flash and, since his incarceration, has become a member of Task Force X, aka the Suicide Squad. Platinum Chase Edition They say you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but they also say evil is as evil does. A master manipulator, the Penguin is usually surrounded by violent henchmen who do his bidding without question. But when it comes down to a face-to-face, expect him to unleash a deadly barrage from a variety of umbrella weapons and other ingenious devices—often taking the form of fowl. And when all else fails, the Penguin will fight as dirty as they come, hand to hand combat doesn’t ruffle his feathers at all.
