I’ve got the whip AND the Idol. Ha!
Yes, here is the long-awaited Ultimate Quarter Scale Raiders of the Lost Ark “Classic” Indiana Jones figure. We received our first package samples and just had to tear one open and play with it. I hope you all will enjoy it as much as we did. Although truth be told, I won’t be playing with mine much, it just looks too cool standing there as a display piece. In fact, I’m starting to regret tearing open the box - it would have been great to display next to my unopened Darth Maul.

…and your toy collection. Here is the approved paint for the movie Wolverine and his backalley dumpster base. Are you still puzzled by the base? OK, look at it this way - What type of business has a dumpster like that? Perhaps…a restaurant? Maybe, say… a Cajun restaurant? OK, any more of a hint than that and I’m getting fired, so this post ends here.

Yup, here it is, the final approved head for the Anakin Skywalker UQS figure. I still think this is one of the best outfits we’ve done in the line, so I can’t wait to get a chance to show you this head on the approved outfit (but you’ll just have to wait for it - haha).

I give to you - the approved UQS head sculpt for Episode 3’s Anakin Skywalker. Not much to say beyond that. Stay tuned for paint.

Our upcoming Battlestar Galactica and Stargate SG-1 action figure two-packs are nearing release and we’ve got the latest packaging pictures to prove it!

Just in case you thought you would never see these in stores, feast your eyes

I am sure as many of you know from reading posts of past and seeing ads in previews the UQS Kirk is almost here! We have just finished up the packaging line for the UQS Star Trek Series, you probably got a look at Spock too in the gallery. We are following the new look for the Star Trek style guide and giving you a super sized window to view the super sized Kirk. At a whopping 19 inches this Kirk will tower over your regular figures like a giant, buff and awesome Shattner with a shrink ray. I picture him stomping amongst your regular figures laughing a deep guttural laugh and firing his shrink ray aimlessly, torn shirt optional of course. Okay, back to reality! He’s going to have sound so you will be able to try him threw the window, just in try me mode though so you have to buy him to get all the phrases (just a switch on his back). Pre-orders for this guy are a must because I think once he hits it’s going to be hard to find him, so you know what to do!

I think I’ve earned my pay for the week,
