NECA have released the full details for their 7 inch scale Ultimate Sam figure from Trick 'r Treat (2007). Sam comes with four head options as well as two pumpkins, one of which lights up. He also has a couple of hand options, lollipop, candy bar knife and his hessian sack. He is due for a September 2019 release. "Trick 'r Treat – 7” Scale Action Figure – Ultimate Sam "From the delightfully deranged 2007 cult classic film Trick R Treat, Sam joins NECA’s Ultimate line! The mysterious trick-or-treater gets a deluxe release with all-new, highly articulated body and accessories galore, including 4 interchangeable heads, 2 Jack O Lanterns (one lights up!), interchangeable hand, severed hand, trick or treat sack, lollipop, and candy bar knife. Sam stands approximately 5” tall. Blazing Jack O Lantern uses button cell batteries, included. Display-friendly window box packaging with opening flap."

Jazwares have expanded their 6 inch Legendary line of Fortnite figures from the basic figures to a new concept called Max Level. These larger packs include a base figure and clip on armour and parts to build the full figure or a combination of parts depending on the look you want. It is both a great play feature, but also adds a small level of display customisation for collectors - especially when we consider the armour is listed as interchangeable - so like the face plates on the single figures we expect this armour to be swap-able between future Max Level figures. At present the only Max Level figure is Omega, who comes in both a standard version and a purple version. Each version is essentially the same other than the colouring trim. There are 24 pieces of armour for Omega and he also comes with an Assault Rifle, and harvesting tool. Both versions of Omega are starting to show up in the US, and the figure is listed on Amazon US for the equivalent of £25.52 - but with all the other charges it will stack up to over £38 delivered. Level up with the Fortnite Legendary Series Max Level Figure Pack! These new 6-inch articulated action figures have incredible details, feature interchangeable armor pieces, and premium loadouts. The 6-inch scale is perfect for Fortnite in real life, fitted with a harvesting tool and weapon. More outfits are dropping soon. Collect them all! Includes: 6-inch Articulated Orange/Purple Variant Omega Figure, 24 Pieces of Interchangeable Armor, 1 Harvesting Tool, and 1 Weapon. For Ages 8+. The Omega (Purple Variant) 6-inch Max Level action figure features 24 armor pieces, 33 points of articulation and highly detailed decoration inspired by one of the most popular outfits from Epic Games' Fortnite. Omega (Purple Variant) is equipped with the Onslaught harvesting tool and a Legendary Assault Rifle weapon. Omega (Purple Variant) is equipped with the Onslaught harvesting tool and a Legendary Assault Rifle weapon. Official Licensed Product. More outfits are dropping soon.

NECA have shared the final packaging designs for their Trick R Treat Sam Ultimate figure. Sam won't quite make it out in time for Halloween, and is expected to start shipping in November 2019.

Following their New York Comic Con Star Wars Panel, Hasbro has released the full details of their reveals into the public domain. In the following post we will break down each item and where UK customers can expect to find it. All of these have been added to our Black Series 2019 landing page. It is worth also noting that during the panel the Hasbro team talked about global availability and the issues outside of US. To help this and create wider stocks future product will be using globalised packaging - with multi languages to be compliant worldwide, and the EU required white info sheet included - even within the US market stocks. The First Order Jet Trooper will be part of wave 23 alongside other announced figures like Cara Dune and Jannah. He is number 99 in the line and will arrive in December 2019. Availability should be fine for the UK and via any store that stocks Black Series. STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH FIRST ORDER JET TROOPER Figure (HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019) Fans and collectors can imagine scenes from the STAR WARS Galaxy with this premium STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH FIRST ORDER JET TROOPER figure, inspired by STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER. This figure, which features premium deco and 4 fully articulated limbs, comes with a FIRST ORDER JET TROOPER-inspired accessory, making it a great addition to any Star Wars collection. Includes figure and accessory. Available at most major retailers. Also part of wave 23 is Wedge Antilles. He uses some parts from the previous Luke X-Wing figure, but includes a new helmet decor and a Denis Lawson photo real head sculpt. Again availability will be widespread for Wedge. We assume Wedge will be number 102. STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH WEDGE ANTILLES Figure (HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019) Fans and collectors can imagine scenes from the STAR WARS Galaxy with this premium STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH WEDGE ANTILLES figure, inspired by STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE. This figure, which features premium deco and 4 fully articulated limbs, comes with 2 WEDGE ANTILLES-inspired accessories, making it a great addition to any Star Wars collection. Includes figure and 2 accessories. Available at most major retailers Yavin Ceremony Luke is the same base figure as the Skywalker Strikes European Convention Exclusive. The accessories are however stripped back, and this figure is the one with the Yavin Ceremony medal. He too will be part of wave 23 and arrive in December. He will take the honour of being number 100 in the phase 3 packaging. STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH LUKE SKYWALKER (YAVIN CEREMONY) Figure (HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019) Fans and collectors can imagine scenes from the STAR WARS Galaxy with this premium STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH LUKE SKYWALKER (YAVIN CEREMONY) figure, inspired by STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE. This figure, which features premium deco and 4 fully articulated limbs, comes with a LUKE SKYWALKER (YAVIN CEREMONY)-inspired accessory, making it a great addition to any Star Wars collection. Includes figure and accessory. Available at most major retailers. We shared the Chewie and C-3PO Empire Strikes Back pack a week or so ago when it was shared by Amazon Germany. This is now confirmed as an Amazon exclusive, and is likely to be listed on the various Amazon global sites (as per the leak in Germany) in the same way they dealt with the recent Palpatine & Throne and the current Carbonized Sith Trooper. It should arrive later in Autumn. Amazon US listing is already live, we await it going up on the UK site. STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH CHEWBACCA & C3PO 2-PACK (HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $39.99/Available: Fall 2019) Available exclusively at Amazon. Clone Commander Fox has shown up at Gamestop in the US, but Hasbro have confirmed this is a shared exclusive. It will be available via most of the UK specialist stores at some point between now and December 2019. STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH CLONE COMMANDER FOX Figure (HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019) Fans and collectors can imagine scenes from the STAR WARS Galaxy with this premium STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH CLONE COMMANDER FOX figure, inspired by the STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS animated series. This figure, which features premium deco and 4 fully articulated limbs, comes with 3 CLONE COMMANDER FOX-inspired accessories, making it a great addition to any Star Wars collection. Includes figure and 3 accessories. Available as a Fan Channel exclusive. The Force Spirit Yoda figure uses the existing Yoda sculpt, but now presented in a Force Spirit decor. This meant Hasbro have added some more inner robes to achieve that effect. The figure is exclusive to Walmart - but is unlikely to see a UK translation into Walmart owned Asda stores. We would think (hope) this will be made available via the Fan Channel and Hasbro UK to the independent stockists - we will have to watch this one, previous Walmart exclusives in both Star Wars and Marvel Legends line have been very limited. I would jump on this one as it goes up if you want a Yoda Force Ghost in your collection. STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH YODA (FORCE SPIRIT) Figure (HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019) Imagine galactic adventures with this collectible STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH YODA (FORCE SPIRIT) figure, featuring the legendary Jedi Master as a Force Spirit, inspired by STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI. This figure features realistic STAR WARS-inspired detail and high poseability, making it a great gift for STAR WARS fans and collectors. Includes figure, accessory, and base. Available exclusively at Walmart. And another Walmart Exclusive is the Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker. This figure is already up for pre-order with several independent UK stores - and as I said above, I'd go with this now rather than later based on previous experiences with Walmart Exclusive availability in the UK. Luke does have a spelling error on the box, this is being corrected but some may hit retailers - a future "chase" variant for collectors? STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH LUKE SKYWALKER (JEDI KNIGHT) Figure (HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019) Available exclusively at Walmart. And the final one is IG-11. This is from The Mandalorian and will be an exclusive to Bestbuy in the US. It uses the IG-88 sculpt, but with new bandoleer. Bestbuy have not really had an exclusive before so I am not sure how this one will behave. I suggest it will be readily available via the Fan Channel / Hasbro UK. It is too big a character to make limited. STAR WARS: THE BLACK SERIES 6-INCH IG-11 Figure (HASBRO/Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2019) Available exclusively at Best Buy.

Mezco have released the full details and gallery images of their One:12 Collective Gambit figure. Gambit will come with the usual sculpted body and tailored clothing along with an armoured vest and his trademark overcoat. The figure will have two head and is armed with his bo staff. Also included are a variety of hands and throwing cards and a throwing card FX piece. Gambit pre-order is now open and the figure is scheduled for a June - August release in 2020. The One:12 Collective Gambit is outfitted in a black mission suit with an X-Men issued armored vest and removable leather-look overcoat. Complete with 2 head portraits, the master of kinetic energy comes complete with a bo staff and a variety of throwing cards and throwing card FX. Remy LeBeau, the master thief better known as Gambit, possesses the mutant ability to charge inanimate objects with kinetic energy he can create and control. An agile and intelligent member of the X-Men, Gambit is also a master at card throwing, hand-to-hand combat, and the use of a bo staff.

A new set of promotional images have been circulated (via Amazon Germany) for a Hasbro Star Wars Black Series 2-pack of Chewbacca and C-3PO from The Empire Strikes Back. Chewie has a new head sculpt on the original body. While C-3PO - in a throwback to the original Kenner toy - can be disassembled and slung on Chewie's back in the supplied netting. The disassemble option is not just a pop off the arms and legs, but includes what seem to be plug in parts to show the exposed and torn wiring between the limbs. The figure is also weathered and dirty after his trip through the bowels of Cloud City. The Amazon Germany listing is still up at the time of posting, but images have been taken down. The figure pack was officially confirmed at the Hasbro Star Wars NYCC panel and is confirmed as arriving in late 2019 and it will be an Amazon Exclusive.

We saw the new Episode 9 C-3PO figure revealed in the Global Product Launch stream and we now have a set of promo images for the figure. C-3PO comes with the new character Babu Frik. Frik is a droid programmer of sorts and despite his size looks to have articulation including a flip down mask. C-3PO includes an exposed rear head section where Frik is obviously doing his work. Our favourite protocol droid also comes with Chewie's bandoleer and bowcaster - which is obviously a plot point from Episode 7. The figure will also feature a temperature change paint in the eyes, so they turn red at a certain temperature. This is the same type of paint technology used on the recent Dryden Vos figure. C-3PO and Babu Frik will be an exclusive release and will be exclusive to Target in the US. It should be a shared fan channel exclusive elsewhere in the world.

At a Mattel Jurassic World presentation at NYCC 2019 this screen shot was teased for a future Autumn 2020 release in the 6 inch scale Amber Collection. The silhouette appear to show a Dilophosaurus along with Denis Nedry - most likely in his yellow rain coat as he tries to escape the original Jurassic Park with the stolen embryos. This is as much as we know so far. The Jurassic World Amber Collection from Mattel is a US Gamestop exclusive line and as yet it is unclear what UK or Worldwide availability will look like.

February 2020 will see the release of the movie Bloodshot starring Vin Diesel. The movie is a superhero movie based on the character from Valiant comics. It is being made by Sony and the hope is to launch a Marvel-esque universe for Valiant comics including future team up movies. McFarlane have obtained the licence to release figures from the 2020 Bloodshot movie, and revealed their first at NYCC 2019. Following the Vin Diesel Bloodshot figure going on display in their booth, McFarlane have also released a number of promotional images. The figure also went live on Amazon US for pre-order with a release date of the 31st of January 2020. Bloodshot will come with two pistols that slot into working holsters on his belt. He was also displayed at NYCC with an assault rifle and a knife which should also be included. He will be released in early 2020 around the same time as the movie. "Ray garrison, aka bloodshot is an unstoppable assassin brought back from the Dead and rebuilt by nanotechnology. Near immortal, with regenerative powers and superhuman strength fighting to regain his memory and to avenge his wife. Incredibly detailed 7-inch scale figure of vin Diesel's bloodshot Features bloodshot based in his outfit from the bloodshot movie Figure includes base, machine gun, Knight and two hand guns Figure features ultra articulation with 22 Moving parts Showcased in bloodshot themed window box packaging"

Hasbro held a Star Wars panel on the final day of New York Comic Con 2019 taking fans through a number of new reveals - or rather confirming figures that had leaked already, which is a shame. You can watch the full panel here, streamed by Star Wars Action News The majority of the Black Series element for the panel took us through all the Black Series figures for Triple Force Friday as already summarised here. It confirmed a later wave including Cara Dune, Jannah, Jet Trooper and Wedge. They showed us Commander Fox, who is a shared exclusive and not just for Gamestop. It confirmed the Jedi Knight Luke as a Walmart Exclusive, and officially confirmed that the Force Spirit Yoda was also a Walmart Exclusive and would arrive by the end of 2019. The C-3PO and Chewbacca 2-pack is an Amazon Exclusive. They talked about the new C-3PO from Rise of Skywalker and the figure is meant to have some red eyes when exposed to a certain temperature - like the paint they used on Dryden Vos. This figure will not be a main wave release, and yet another C-3PO goes to Exclusive status, this one with Target in the US. The big reveal was an IG-11 figure from The Mandalorian. This uses the IG-88 sculpt with new parts and tooling. He will be a Bestbuy exclusive. All products shown will be up for pre-order at your retailer of choice by Monday 7th October 2019.

The pre-order page has gone live via Games Workshop for the Bandai Primaris Intercessor Space Marine Action Figure. As expected for such a premium piece, the price has come out at £75 with some text quoting "This product is made to order and will be dispatched within 270 days". Only 9000 units will be available to pre-order Worldwide and the pre-order closes at 6pm on the 2nd November 2019. Bandai will then only produce the amount ordered. Items will be dispatched at some point between April and June 2020. Please Note: Here at Games-Workshop.com, we'll be taking orders for up to 9,000 of these action figures, and we expect them to go quickly. Once the order period ends in November 2019, Bandai will then begin production, and we'll start fulfilling orders in the second quarter of 2020! If you are ordering other items and would like them sooner, please order them separately to avoid any delay. The Adeptus Astartes, commonly known as Space Marines, are incredibly powerful transhuman soldiers armed with potent weapons of war and power armour that allow them to go toe-to-toe with the unspeakable horrors of the 41st Millennium. They’re organised into over a thousand Chapters, each with their own heraldry, history and methods of warfare. The myths and legends of one such Chapter, the Ultramarines, reaches back over ten thousand years. Their unblemished record marks them out as shining examples of everything that makes the Adeptus Astartes Humanity's greatest defence in a galaxy consumed by total war. The distinctive armour and weaponry of the Space Marines have been explored in the form of miniatures for longer than Warhammer 40,000 has existed but never at this scale – until now. Our partners at Bandai have captured an unprecedented level of detail, yet deftly honoured every aspect of the iconic design that makes the Adeptus Astartes instantly recognisable. This incredible figure will be the pride your collection, displayed prominently on your shelf to amaze and inspire you for years to come. Of course, nobody could blame you for spending hours putting him into dynamic power poses and making pew-pew noises for his bolter – the figure is so well articulated that you can even pose him running or kneeling! All told, there are over 50 points of articulation – you’ll find 11 in the head and waist, 8 in each arm, and 12 in each leg. This first of its kind action figure depicts an Ultramarines Primaris Intercessor – a brother of the 2nd Company, assigned to the 3rd Battleline Squad. This 8” figure is cast and assembled with the exceptional quality you've come to expect from Bandai, and painted to a very high standard with accurate markings and heraldry. He’s armed with a holy bolt rifle and vicious combat blade, including swappable, alternate open hands. This figure also comes complete with a display box that’s impressive in its own right, if you prefer to show it off with the seal intact.
