Wow. Well, when Hasbro commits themselves to milking a license of every repaint possible, they don’t half ass it! As if the four different Iron Man variants (and two different Iron Mongers) we got in the first series weren’t enough, Hasbro has now released images of three more color schemes of the Mark III armor that will be hitting store shelves this summer. I can’t say I’m too excited about any of these. Captain America Iron Man paint job? Did we really need that? MarvelousNews has the pics.

This pretty cool. I don’t how many of you guys customize (or are even into custom figures), but for those of you who are, AFI is putting on a DCUC-specific custom con of sorts. I think this is a neat idea. For years, Marvel Legends have been the go to base for 6″ superarticulated customs, but now that DCUC is coming on strong I’m seeing more customizers start tinkering about with the 4H’s figures. The deadline for entry to AFI’s showcase is June 16th, and the unveiling of all the ubersexy DC customs will come on the 28th of June. So, if you’re interested, time to bust out the paint and apoxy and get at it! I haven’t been customizing much lately myself, but I might just have to dig into the fodder bin and see if I can’t scrape something up for this one. Get all the details here.

So, now that we’re in the era of making every action figure as poseable as possible, we’re seeing a lot of interesting properties pop up with superarticulated figures - like the recent TMNT and BSG and Ninja Gaiden figs and what-not. And now NECA has busted out with a super-poseable Alien figure that stands 9″ tall and boasts 20 points of articulation! I’m pretty darn impressed with this thing. NECA is fast becoming one of my new favorite toy companies! See more pics at NECA’s site.

Just because this a toy site doesn’t mean we can’t still talk about other things from time and time and Iron Man the movie is something I can imagine us having quite a bit to say about. It officially opens today, and with this film’s cast and it’s uber-awesome director, I can’t see it being anything short of spectacular. So, let the discussion begin!

MarvelousNews has posted high-res pics of all the figures from the upcoming Hulk Legends waves (both 1 and 2). I have to admit, while Foom is pretty solid looking as the BAF, these all seem, well, kinda crappy to me. Maybe it’s just that my Marvel Legends enthusiasm has soured and the price tag on these ($15 msrp) has really turned me off to them. Shrug. What do you guys think?
