Super7 have announced three new action figures in their ReAction line of retro 3.75 inch figures from the Aliens franchise. "They're coming out of the walls!" Super7 is terrified to debut the first releases in the new Aliens 3.75-inch ReAction Figures line! Unleashing next week are the Alien Warriors awaiting Ripley and the Marines on Acheron (LV-426). The figures are brand new sculpts based on the Alien Warriors from everyone's favorite 2nd Alien movie. Terrifying! Going up for pre-order on the 15th January 2020 are three Alien Xenomorph figures from Aliens (1986). Each Alien is coloured differently based on the suits used in the movie. We have Midnight Black, Dusk Brown and Nightfall Blue. Each figure will be posed differently. DEEP NERD CUT: The coloring of these Alien Warrior ReAction Figures were inspired by the original Alien Warrior costumes used in the filming of Aliens. There were 9 different colored suits used in the movie and these represent 3 of them (Midnight Black, Dusk Brown, and Nightfall Blue) and each figure has a different terrifying pose. The next part of the announcement is arguably more exciting, as Super7 have human characters planned into action figure form later in 2020. While the style may be different, these would be the same scale as the Lanyard Alien Toys coming to Walmart (US) and Smyths (UK) soon. This line also includes an Alien Queen, APC and Powerlifter. Also, YES, ReAction Figures of human characters from Aliens will be dropping later this year... but for now the Xenomorphs await and will be here NEXT WEDNESDAY (1/15/) in the Super7 webstore. action figure, news, toys, reviews, action, figure, blog, checklist, collectors, Super7, Reaction, ReAction, Aliens, Alien, Xenomorph, Queen

NECA have released boxed images of the next four releases in their 7-inch scale Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movie line. Following on from the four turtles, we now get versions of Splinter and Shredder. There are also two Foot Soldiers - one with bladed weapons, the other with blunt weapons. These releases are due to hit stores in February 2020. They are exclusive to Gamestop in the US, but elsewhere they should be available through specialist stores. "The GameStop Exclusive Splinter, Shredder, and Foot Clan 7" Scale Action figures from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1990 Movie are going to be popping up in-stores next month!"

On Twitter, Randy Falk (NECA) has revealed the lineup of the 3rd Series of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Cartoon 2-Packs. The third series will feature Casey Jones vs a Slashed Foot Soldier, April O'Neil vs a Bashed Foot Soldier and the Leatherhead and Slash figures we've been seeing in the last couple of convention booths. The figure contents are not fully complete with NECA still to reveal the full accessory contents for each set. The figures remain exclusive to Target in the US, but should have availability outside the US via specialist stores. "The official line up for the Target exclusive TMNT Series 3 Cartoon 2 Packs.

As we reported last week, the four new 7 inch scale 1990 movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle figures from SDCC 2019 are coming to general release. NECA confirmed the news via their social media channels and shared promotional images of the four figures. The SDCC 2019 pack is broken down into four single releases of Shredder, Splinter and two versions of the Foot Soldier. One Foot Soldier comes with blunt weapons - nunchucks, night-stick and a staff. The other has bladed weapons of katana's and sai's. Splinter has a pair of nunchucks, pizza slice and Ooze cylinder. He also has a soft goods outfit. The chain and manacles are not included. Shredder has a knife and spear and alternative hands including wrist blades. The crate and weapon rack are also not included in any of the sets. The packs will be exclusive to Gamestop in the US with pre-orders opening soon. We would expect, although it is not officially confirmed, that these will be available worldwide to NECA stockists as are the original four turtles - arriving in late 2019. We also know that a 9th figure will join the line, with NECA confirming that the Raphael in trench coat disguise will get the 7 inch treatment in 2020.

The new Spin Master DC product are starting to land at retail, including this Batcycle Set which is in stock at The Entertainer. The new Spin Master licence is a more kid friendly line and focuses on pocket-money pricing and play features - while the new McFarlane 7-inch line will service collectors. To that end I am handing over this review to my 10-year old son who purchased the Batcycle set and asked to review it fully. He has done the photo's and the wording, I just helped him put the images into order. Enjoy... hello and may I welcome you to my review so let's get started..... Batman Batman details The Batman figure that comes in this set is pretty cool. With his main colour being dark fern green. His secondary color being black on his arms, legs, belt and faceplate. His eyes are white much like the comics. The details on the armor are nothing short of spectacular, to the armor plating or the bolts in the metal. The final detail is the symbol associated with Batman. The bat symbol is white and really stands out in the dark fern green torso. Batman articulation The figures articulation is pretty neat. With 11 points of articulation. The points are the shoulders, head, arms, thighs and knees. In the long run he is very poseable . Batman also comes with a pair of clawed hand accessories. These are quite big and slot into Batman's hands. Batman flaws There is only one flaw with this figure the figures cape is a bit loose on the connection point but other than that this figure is an excellent addition to the set. Clayface Clayface details The Clayface (to me) is the star of the pack with it been pretty darn awesome. The figures main colour is muddy brown but the torso is a bit lighter, a more of a dog's dropping colour. The ripples on the figure are pretty good detailing making it look like runny brown clay. Other details are the spikey ball hand. Although the hand with the spikey ball could have been swappable, it is a bonus detail. The eyes are amber yellow and his teeth are white with a yellow tinge. The spikes on the left forearm are a good detail too. Clayface articulation The articulation on Clayface is a bit disappointing with only 4 points of articulation but he is decently poseable. The points of articulation are the head, arms and hips. Clayface flaws The only flaws are the torso colour change and the lack of articulation. Other than that the figure is amazing. The bike The bike details The details on the bike are amazing, just like the batman figure. Also like the batman figure the colours are dark fern green and black. Unlike Batman there is no white, instead the colour relacing white is metallic grey. There are so many beautiful details on the bike so here are a few: The bolts on the wheel guard, the piping and the springs that look like the suspension. Even more details include the Bat symbols, the Bat face on the front. Bike flaws There are very little flaws on the bike like the rest of the set. The major flaw is bat face on the front looks like catwoman's bike from the comics. The other flaw is that Batman extremely hard to pose on the bike and so doesn't look when he is going. Summary: I would recommend this set to any Batman fan, kids or collectors. I would rate this set 4 stars. You can buy the set now at The Entertainer for £18 (paid link) Thanks for reading, goodbye!
