  • Review: Star Wars Black Series Sabine Wren, Ahsoka, Galaxy Collection Wave 13

    “She's Mandalorian. You knew what you were getting into.” Sabine first appeared in the Star Wars Black Series in 2016, a release based on her appearance in Star Wars: Rebels. This figure would get a photo-real update in 2020 with a re-release under the Galaxy Collection banner. In 2023 Sabine’s live-action debut in the Ahsoka series has brought us a new Black Series Sabine figure replicating this older New Republic-Era Sabine Wren. Sabine was part of Wave 13 of the Galaxy Collection, released in the Autumn of 2023 and dedicated in its entirety to the Ahsoka series. The wave received a disjointed UK release in particular with Ahsoka herself held back from any UK distribution and stocks of Sabine and Ezra were in high demand, while Morgan Elsbeth and her HK droid didn’t quite sell so well. The wave arrived in the revived window box format and using a new turquoise blue hued colour scheme aligned with the Ahsoka source material. Sabine is number 03 in the Ahsoka Galaxy Collection with her side art connecting to Ezra and Morgan Elsbeth. Sabine is a brand new figure and the look is based on her Mandalorian armour as opposed to the more casual New Republic flight jacket she wore in the earlier scenes. Like other Mandalorian figures, the construction of the figure starts with an undersuit - in a deep brown base colour - and the armour is overlaid on the top. As we expect from an artist like Sabine the armour is coloured in vibrant purple, red and orange with various stripes and patterns and a differing look on each armoured segment. The two pauldrons each have a decal applied with the Rebellion symbol on the right, and a Purrgil symbol on the left - accurate to the show and a nod to Ezra and the quest to find him. The head sculpt is a wonderful likeness to Natasha Liu Bordizzo and one of the best the Black Series has offered to date particularly as the waxy gloss look has been dialled back so the features of the face are more visible. The hair has a purple hue and is an individual piece connected to the head which makes the hairline crisp and natural without any over or under-painting issues. Sabine comes with a removable helmet that initially looks and feels too big, but when compared with the live-action prop is pretty much spot-on in its proportions. Like the armour this is painted with various colours including some deep red framing around the visor and a pair of twin white lines off over the head. The visor retains the Nite Owl shaping and is painted in gloss black. A range finder is fitted to one side of the helmet and this articulates to come down over the visor. The helmet is a looser fit to others we have seen, but not so loose as to wobble around too much - this level of fit will also protect the paint apps to the head. Accessories include a pair of Mandalorian Westar Blasters, each painted slightly differently. One blaster has a silver body and blue trim, while the other has a deep yellow. Both then feature painted gloss black grips. The blasters can be holstered in the included belt piece and will also fit in either hand, with Sabine given dual trigger-fingered hands. She also features her/Ezra’s lightsaber which comes with a predominantly black hilt with silver detailing and a translucent green blade. The saber hilt has a loop at one end that connects to a hook on Sabine’s belt for securing that away when not in use. The blade swaps in and out easily and the saber can be held in either hand - or both thanks to the articulation. This articulation comes in at 17 points in total with the thigh swivels removed and the knee granted an additional swivel motion to compensate. The loss of the joint isn't something you miss, and it does help the overall look of the figure and alleviates some of the older issues where upper and lower thigh could be two different finishes. The legs and arms have a full range of motion with the shoulders featuring a butterfly joint under the chest armour as well as a feature where the shoulder pauldrons withdraw under the same chest armour to allow the arms to raise upward. The neck features two joints, extending movement while removing another unsightly joint. Sabine is probably the best of the Ahsoka Wave 1 figures and has few faults other than her apparent availability issues. The look of the figure is exceptional and a good match to what we see onscreen. There are sufficient accessories, all of which interact well with the figure, and articulation to suit wielding any of them in a variety of poses. A highly recommended figure and one that will certainly be a focal point of your New Republic Era collection.

Now, Spawn stands on the side of humanity. Protecting the mortal realm against the threats from Heaven and Hell. The Hellspawn series featured a dark and twisted take on the Spawn mythos. Spawn was less of a man and more of a creature or a force of nature that swept everyone around him up in his wake. With vivid and moody visuals from artist Ashley Wood, Hellspawn sets the stage for the nightmare world in which only Spawn could exist. Al Simmons is a man cursed. After being betrayed by his Government and left for dead, he returns to Earth as a Hellspawn. But even with access to hellish powers beyond belief, Al can still rely on his training as a soldier and the weapons and tactics that have saved his life dozens of times.

  • McFarlane DC Multiverse Platinum Edition Chase Variants of Dark Knight Trilogy Batman and Catwoman

    A pair of McFarlane DC Multiverse Platinum Edition Chase figures from the Dark Knight Trilogy have been listed on Big Bad Toy Store at a premium price. The first of these is a masked version of the Hong Kong Skydive Batman, the other is a single release of Catwoman. It has been eight years since Batman™ vanished into the night, turning, in that instant, from hero to fugitive. Assuming the blame for the death of D.A. Harvey Dent, the Dark Knight™ sacrificed everything for what he and Commissioner Gordon™ both hoped was the greater good. For a time the lie worked, as criminal activity in Gotham City™ was crushed under the weight of the anti-crime Dent Act. But everything will change with the arrival of a cunning cat burglar with a mysterious agenda. Far more dangerous, however, is the emergence of Bane™, a masked terrorist whose ruthless plans for Gotham drive Bruce out of his self-imposed exile. But even if he dons the cape and cowl again, Batman may be no match for Bane. With the help of Lieutenant Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman sets out to destroy organized crime in Gotham City for good. The triumvirate proves to be effective, but they soon find themselves prey to a rising criminal mastermind known as the Joker, who thrusts Gotham City into anarchy and forces the Dark Knight ever closer to crossing the fine line between hero and vigilante.

  • McFarlane DC Direct 'Digital' releases of Green Lantern, Batman and Aquaman

    The first McFarlane Digitial releases were previewed back in the Summer of 2023 at SDCC. The premise is that these will be physical 7-inch figures but will come with a McFarlane Toys digital collectible. The line has now been confirmed as being released under the DC Direct banner with figures of Green Lantern, Batman, and Aquaman kicking off the series. Each figure will come with a digital code to redeem online for a McFarlane collectible on their digital platform. And if you buy all three figures you will also get access to a digital 'build-a-figure' of Mongul. Batman is taken from the DC: Rebirth series and has two head options, alternative hands, and a batarang with grappling gun. Aquaman is based on his classic look and also features two heads and alternative hands. Aquaman also comes with his Trident and a figure of Qwsp. The Hal Jordan Green Lantern is taken from the Silver Age comics and features alternative hands, lantern, and powered effects. All three figures also feature a circular display stand with the McFarlane Digital logo. The new DC Direct Digital figures will be released in late April 2024. Keep track of the McFarlane releases at our McFarlane Collectors Database A playboy billionaire by day, Bruce Wayne’s double life affords him the comfort of a life without financial worry, a loyal butler-turned-guardian and the perfect base of operations in the ancient network of caves beneath his family’s sprawling estate. By night, however, he sheds all pretense, dons his iconic scalloped cape and pointed cowl and takes to the shadowy streets, skies and rooftops of Gotham City. A founding member of the Justice League of America, Aquaman has fought alongside Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman and held his own against the biggest threats the universe has ever seen. Despite being misunderstood by many as someone who merely “talks to fish,” Aquaman’s super-strength and fighting prowess alone make him a force to be reckoned with. His telepathic abilities make him one of the most powerful minds on the planet. If one chooses to underestimate the sea king, they do so at their own peril. Hal Jordan is arguably the greatest Green Lantern. Valiant, honest, and able to conquer great fear, he battled threats alien and terrestrial, implementing unyielding willpower through a ring able to create constructs of anything he could imagine. Part of an intergalactic police force, he patrolled space sector 2814, tasked with protecting all life. Yet he found it increasingly difficult to blindly follow the directives of his Oan masters—the Guardians of the Universe. While colleagues ignored their own misgivings, Hal spoke out, even as his triumphant exploits won him a reputation as the foremost Green Lantern in history.
