With the Thor movie coming out and the X-men reboot in production, we thought it would be a great time for those that missed the first run production!

In stores: Marvel Select Thor and Marvel Select Wolverine!

Just like the mad old Victor himself, I’m going to have to do some limb reattachment surgery to make myself an Ultimate Quarter Scale Frankenstein’s Monster figure.  But, since all of the pieces have been completed and approved, I thought I would let everyone see the components. 

Everyone loves Deadpool these days (except me, but what do I know).  It’s obvious from all of his appearances in virtually every mainstream Marvel comic that is being published.  That means everyone wants to have their very own Deadpool figure, right?  And what could possibly be better than a Deadpool action figure?  A really BIG Deadpool action figure.  Welcome to the world of Ultimate Quarter Scale Marvel.  Yes, the 19″ scale we used for Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Star Trek, and Terminator 2 is now being applied to Marvel Comics.  Kicking off the new branch is the Merc with a Mouth, Wade Wilson.  I included a little pre-prototype collage for you but the eye-catcher is the fully-assembled prototype.  And, for those of you who want more, you’ll just have to wait and see additional details later (like the painted unmasked head and the weapons).  Now, giving credit where it is due, let me thank the team that made this possible - Bill Mancuso (heads), Kathy Grilli (outfit), Rudy Garcia (hands, boots, belt), Gentle Giant (weapons), Adam Smith and Irish Joe (castings), and Eddie Wires (paint).

Just when you thought we didn’t have any more Original Series figures up our sleeves! (more…)

What has the world come to when it’s Cylon vs. Cylon?
Oh, that’s right, the END OF THE BSG WORLD AS WE KNOW IT!!!

Will your Battle-Damaged Red Stripe Cylon win?
Or will the Battle-Damaged Razor Cylon Warrior win?
Fight out your own battles with these two Daybreak Cylons!

Young Obi-Wan Kenobi can now join the ranks of Luke Skywalker and Darth Maul Ultimate Quarter Scales!

Not only does he include a blue light-saber (a-duh), but he includes interchangeable hands and  sounds from “Revenge of the Sith!”

Hold on.  Why do they always say that about the Juggernaut?  I mean, am I wrong or do they not find a way to stop him EVERY TIME?  Seems to me he gets stopped on a regular basis.  Oh well, who cares as long as he romps and stomps right up until the stoppage?  Whether he’s on the side of evil or good, everyone loves to see Cain Marko destroy anything in his path.  Our good friends at Gentle Giant have been itching to see Juggy added to the Marvel Select line, especially if they got to do the sculpting, so here you go.  Colors are brought to you by Eddie Wires…

“New Retro”?  Did I really just say that?  Yes I did.  You’ve been seeing a lot in the news lately about the fantastic things that EMCE Toys is doing with the Mego-style figures.  This has prompted people to wonder if perhaps there was some kind of parting of the ways between DST and EMCE since there haven’t been any new announcements from our camp.  Well, fear not gentle reader, DST and EMCE are just as close as ever and we’ve got exciting things coming up for you.  These images are VERY rough, so no comments and no reposting, but I wanted you to see what we’re up to.  In development we have 4 Trek (Captain Pike, Vina, Nurse Chapel, and the M-113 Salt Vampire) as well as 4 Universal Monsters (Dracula, Wolfman, Frankenstein, and Mummy).  More details will be revealed as they are available (and I can already tell you that at least one of these is getting a complete overhaul and another has a variant in the works).  Enjoy the super early look at the future…

And this dude is HEAVY![]
