  • Star Wars 'Bring Home the Bounty' reveal of Vintage Collection Boba Fett on Morak

    This week's Star Wars 'Bring Home the Bounty' Bonus Bounty has come early as Hasbro and StarWars.com have announced this new Vintage Collection Boba Fett figure. This is Fett as we see him on Morak during Season 2 of The Mandalorian. He features his blaster, rifle, jetpack, and removable helmet.

  • Playmates Star Trek Universe figures and ships revealed

    As promised last week, Playmates have unveiled their new Star Trek line as the franchise returns to Playmates after a number of years away. The article on StarTrek.com confirms the new 2022 Star Trek figures will return to the 5-inch (1/14) scale and will be taken from across the Star Trek Universe. This choice of sizing allows the new figures to fit in with the older Playmates Trek releases. And while the figures are getting updated deco, and articulation, they do carry a similar aesthetic as the older figures. The entire Star Trek Universe is open to Playmates and among the first figures are three movie figures from The Wrath of Khan: Captain Kirk, Spock, and Khan. The Next Generation releases will include the trio of Captain Picard, Commander Riker, and Commander Data. Each of the TNG figures will feature the Season 3 Starfleet Uniforms. The figure line is rounded out with Star Trek Discovery figures of Saru and Michael Burnham. The Discovery pair will be in the original Discovery Starfleet Uniforms of the first couple of Seasons - with Saaru in the gold command uniform, and Burnham with the blue-trimmed science officer. The figures will be packed in either retro-styled blister cards, or newer Star Trek Universe cards - depending on the character and property. Other items announced for the line include an 18-inch Star Trek Enterprise with lights & sounds and a Star Trek Original Series Phaser, also featuring lights and sunders. The first batch of Playmates Star Trek Universe figures and items are scheduled for a July 2022 release with more to follow in early 2023. Red Alert! Playmates Toys has returned with an all-new Star Trek Universe collection. The first figures and toys will be available to fans this summer in a collection of retro figures from the most popular Star Trek television shows and films, as well as the latest hit series on Paramount+. The five-inch, 1:14 scale figures will feature the extraordinary attention to detail Playmates is known for, each with 14 points of articulation and packaged in either 1990s nostalgic packaging or newly designed Star Trek Universe blister cards, depending on the character. The first wave in the Star Trek Universe collection will be available online in July 2022 and in stores this fall. Additional figures and accessories scheduled for release in early 2023 will be announced later this year.

  • McFarlane DC Multiverse Crime Syndicate Starro Build-a-Figure wave kicks off with Superman of Earth-

    As we saw last year for the Batman Beyond Wave, McFarlane have teamed up with Target for a staggered wave of DC Multiverse figures - with one released every couple of months, each containing a build-a-figure part. The Crime Syndicate wave kicks off with the release of Superman of Earth-3, otherwise known as Ultraman. He comes packed with a baby Starro who is made of a softer PVC allowing him to be attached to most DC Multiverse figures at the chest. The other figures in the Crime Syndicate Wave are not yet revealed, but we can look forward to a build-a-figure of adult Starro at the end of the wave. Starro will be constructed with bendable wire armature in the arms. Superman of Earth-3 is listed as 'coming soon' at Target and we would then assume the subsequent figures will follow every couple of months. If the wave follows suit with the previous Target staggered wave then collectors outside the US should be able to buy the full-wave at the end of the Target run. Variations of the figures may also be released in other waves, and we may even get a Starro variant Megafig on its own? "Earth-3 is a world where power and brute force outmatch the justice and compassion seen in many other Earths across the DC Multiverse. Ultraman of Earth-3, born Kal-Il on the planet Krypton, shares many similarities with Earth-0’s Superman. He’s also the Last Son of Krypton and was sent in an escape pod to Earth where he grew up in Smallville with his adoptive parents Jonathan and Martha Kent. But the similarities end there. Using their son for their own gain, the Kents then manipulated Kal-Il and didn’t allow him to leave the farm, until one day when he finally discovered the truth of who he is and where he came from. He then broke free and left Smallville for good. Years later, he's now taken the name Ultraman and rules over Metropolis, dominating the sprawling city as a tyrant.

Check out our direct news feed for more action figure news, reviews, and store reports About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
