DC Collectibles 6" Batman The Animated Series Man-Bat Figure
MAFEX Heath Ledger The Dark Knight Joker Figure
Why so serious, Medicom? Your MAFEX Joker doesn't put a smile on my face
Toyark reports that Medicom Toys has released a first look at its upcoming MAFEX The Dark Knight Joker (Heath Ledger). According to Toyark, the figure is slated for a February release and will retail for ¥4,500.
To sum up my feelings in one sound: "Meh". The MAFEX Joker looks alright, but not substantially better than either the the Play Arts Kai (shading notwithstanding?) or even the Movie Masters version. Plus I've heard the occasional horror story of MAFEX figures having abnormally loose joints or falling apart which is enough to convince me this is something of a no-go. Granted, I might have found it more tempting at a lower price point.
Medicom's MAFEX Joker will join Nolan-verse Batman and Catwoman (who was apparently shown at Toy Fair).

PIXAR PRESENTS: PORTAL: A SCIENTIFIC JOURNEY
Awesome Pixar-esque renderings of Chell from Portal by Alex Zemke. I’m not even sure if the human species could handle such a thing if it were real. Surely the hearts and minds of fans everywhere would explode in unison, mine included.
Alex has been working on this fanmade short film deal and hyping it up since 2012. Dude might need to start a Kickstarter for this or something.

S.H. Figuarts Kikaider gets a photo gallery
A photo gallery has appeared for Bandai's upcoming S.H. Figuarts Kikaider, based on the character's appearance in a rebooted film.
I was more than a little excited when I first heard news of a S.H. Figuarts Kikaider. I really enjoyed the Android Kikaider anime and, up until seeing the photos, wasn't aware that another series existed although I'm not entirely surprised that it was preceded by a tokusatsu because the anime certainly had a sentai vibe. Even if it's not quite the version I want, the figure looks pretty cool and I'm tempted to check out that movie as well.

About That "Mr 71 + Eddy" from 3A Toys
A companion piece to the (recently Sold Out) WO7174 - MS74 is the 1/6 scale Mr 71 + Eddy, which essentially is a Ashley Wood in his casual wear, and his cat! (Born in 1971, most like, too ;p).
FYI: MS74 is a 1/6 version of his wife T.P Louise, and this two pieces no doubt celebrates their 10th Anniversary together!
Price is US$140 for a September ship out, randomly dropped at Bambalandstore.com, with this being a "surprise drop" begun today. Neither a dirty soldier or a clone or robot from 3A, folks!
