Harley Quinn has changed both her look and general outlook in the current DC Comics' Universe as a member of the Suicide Squad, and the Joker's ex-girlfriend. Speaking of the Joker, the Clown Prince of Crime put Harley through some rather disturbing paces during the "Death of the Family" storyline that will haunt the character for some time; however, in a look to happier (and crazier) times, Sideshow Toys is releasing a classic version of Miss Quinzel, sporting the original costume fans first fell in love with on "Batman: The Animated Series", as part of their DC Comics Premium Format Figure line!

Exclusive: The First Official Look at Sideshow Collectibles' Major Bludd From Their 1/6th Scale G.I. Joe Line

Posted 10/16/12 3:40 pm EST by in First Look, News, Sideshow Collectibles, Toys


Cut-throat mercenaries are a dime a dozen. However, cut-throat mercenaries named Sebastian are fewer and far between. That's why it's such a huge deal that Sideshow Collectibles is bring Major Bludd into their 1/6th scale line of G.I. Joe figures! Okay, so maybe his first name has nothing to do with his significance to the franchise-- but I always liked it! The 1/6th figure line normally utilizes a lot of the same body since the cloth goods and gear normally cover them and help bring out the individual character; however, Major Bludd looks to feature a ton of newly sculpted parts, including new arms that are detailed to show off his armored look. Between all of his incredible gear, and that he sports a wicked eye-patch, Major Bludd is quickly climbing my "Must Have Toys" list. Read on for an exclusive image of Major Bludd from the fine folks at Sideshow Collectibles!

Sideshow Collectibles Takes Obi-Wan to Tatooine With Their Latest Star Wars: Mythos Statue

Posted 8/8/12 12:30 pm EST by in News, Sideshow Collectibles, Star Wars, Toys


The Expanded Universe has long been a point of contention between its validity to the Star Wars canon. From Boba Fett's survival in the Sarlaac Pit to one of Han and Leia's twins becoming drunk with power, the extra content found in the myriad of Star Wars novels, comics and videogames is undeniably popular. Now, Sideshow Collectibles has gotten into the game with their new Mythos line of high-end statues based on conceptual ideas that fit "between the scenes" of everyone's favorite Wookie-filled movie franchise: Star Wars! With their announcement of the Ben Kenobi Star Wars: Mythos statue, not only are they bringing "Old Ben" to fans as he makes his way across the deserts of Tatooine on his way to hermit-hood, but he even has interchangeable heads with the look of Sir Alec Guiness AND Ewan McGregor!

Read on for more photos, info on the statue, plus insight from the artists involved about their inspiration for the look of Obi-Wan!

Posted 7/23/12 10:48 am EST by in News, Sideshow Collectibles, Toys


Hot Toys has been making freakishly-realistic versions of Bruce Wayne's alter-ego for a few years now. In all that time we've seen multiple versions of the Dark Knight and the Joker, but with the release of "The Dark Knight Rises" it seems they've opened the floodgates for Bat-based 1/6th scale collectibles. Their latest teaser is for the upcoming Catwoman/ Selina Kyle figure, based on Anne Hathaway's look in the film, and while it only really reveals her spiked heels, we're sure we won't be disappointed when the entire toy is finally revealed. In honor of this sneak peek-- and since the post would be so short otherwise, we've also compiled some of Hot Toys other TDKR offerings.

At the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con International, we saw an incredible amount of cool toys.

Now that we're back from the madness of SDCC, it's time to plow into Falcon's review!

Sideshow Collectibles Announces a 1:1 Scale Iron Man Mark VII Bust

Posted 6/28/12 11:00 am EST by in Geek Gifts, News, Sideshow Collectibles, Toys


You know, your living room could really use something to tie the whole room together. Something tasteful, yet eye-catching. We recommend the 1:1 scale Iron Man Mark VII Life Size Bust, from this summer's The Avengers flick,that was just announced from Sideshow Collectibles! Sure it clocks in at around eight-hundred bucks, but the eyes and arc reactor light up so in theory you could just use Tony's bust to read by at night-- thus saving electricity, and totally deferring the cost of this collectible! Okay, maybe that's a little unreasonable on our part, but just look at how cool this thing is. It's up for pre-order now, so you've got until March of 2013 to figure out how to justify the purchase.

Read on for all the tidbits from Sideshow Collectibles, along with a photo gallery.
