DC Direct's Batman: Black and White Statue for Batman: Arkham Asylum

Fans of the Batman: Arkham Asylum video game have been clamoring for action figures, and DC Direct is stepping up to the plate. According to Previews, Toyfare #156, on newsstands on June 9, will reveal DC Direct’s upcoming line of Arkham Asylum toys.

Check out some new images of the War Machine figure from the Iron Man 2 Movie Series line. All of these images show the figure out of box in numerous poses, with some closeup shots focusing on the detail of the figure. Arguably the most highly anticipated figure from the 6″ movie series, this figure is exclusive to Walmart and should be available in North America soon.

Devastator Vs. Shipwreck

Toy Fair ’09 has confirmed  two things, Transformers the movie is going to be totally awesome, and the G.I. Joe movie is going to tank! It looks like Devastator and Shipwreck will both be making appearances in summer blockbusters. When I was a kid, all I wanted was Devastator, the idea of taking toys and building one giant super toy, that blew my mind. So after months of pining away for that florescent Green and Purple giant, especially seeing my friends and neighbors playing with there own Devastators, jealousy begins to set in. Finally, my birthday arrives, what do I get? Muthafuckin Shipwreck!

"Rzarecta, Raaah, Like a Bat in the Night about to take Flight!"

With NYCC just around the corner, Skyfarm Studios is releasing a series of action figures based on everyone’s favourite wu-tanger, The RZA. Which is great, I finally have something to put next to my GFK Doll. Maybe I can even re-enact some of there greatest battles.

I’ve always been a big Wu fan, not so much a fan of Wu tie-ins. I would invest in Wu-Financial though… diversify your bonds!

About the RZA action figure:

• Stylized RZA likeness
• Seven points of articulation including multiple ball joints
• Two katana blades
• 6.75″

About the BOBBY DIGITAL action figure:

• RZA likeness with mask
• Seven points of articulation including multiple ball joints
• “Digital” robot arm
• “Flying Guillotine” weapon with chain
• 6.75″
• Both figures masterfully crafted by Paul Harding

About the Attack of the Brooklyn Super Ninjas comic:
Join RZA as he battles the fiercest gangs on a quest to retrieve his mentor’s mystically powered Fatal Flying Guillotine.  His journey leads him through the darkest alleys and deepest shadows of New York City.  Action only Mark & Mike Davis – aka Madtwiinz – can deliver!  Issue #1 will be packed with the action figures!

Common's action figure from the "Terminator Salvation" line

It actually looks more like Black Thought if you ask me.
