Just a heads-up that the 2015 Hallmark Ornaments go on sale tomorrow...

Hm. Iron Man looks like he's slipping on ice, and Batman looks like he's tripping over something. Is this a theme?!?

I like the '70 Cougar and '78 T/A (although I'd rather see a '78 Z28, 'cause I own one).
That Iron Man pose looks like a scene from the movie.

It might, if they had not added that little reflection under his heel (which I realize is not part of the sculpt, but has an odd effect on the picture).

The > button doesn't work on your screen?

Whoops, didn't see that there were more pages up top.
The Spider-Man looks pretty cool.
It does look like Batman is about to take a header.

JB and Everybuddy,

I think you are a big fan of the classic Infantino-designed Batgirl costume (black instead of grey bodysuit, red purse, etc.).  Back in the 1970's Mego made a Batgirl figure but the bodysuit ended up grey and the utility purse yellow.  Recently a company has been doing reproductions of the classic Mego figures and in addition to the grey outfit Batgirl they recently announced the release of a black bodysuit one!!  The only drawback is the utility purse is not red, but surely some craft paint could take care of that.  Anyways, here is a pic in case you or anyone else is interested.  I am in love with it:

SDCC- a look at the in-progress group of Batman statues:



As for Hot Toys and Batman '66... NOTHIN'. There was a photo of a variant Adam West/Batman 12" figure with comic book blue coloring. No Batmobile or Batgirl at SDCC.

Dave,

Are you referring only to 12" figures, because there was a Batman TV show Batgirl figure sold as an SDCC exclusive this year.

Just wanted to alert folks that if anyone had been waiting for the Eaglemoss Starship collection to finally reach the original tv Enterprise from the classic show, then it has now finally done so with it's 50th issue.

I took a quick pic with my absolutely outdated camera phone, so apologies for the quality, but this at least will give you a quick size comparison compared to the Motion Picture Enterprise they did in the second issue. (I'm sure if you do a quick google search you'll get a lot more images with better detail/clarity.)
