HOT TOYS, SIDESHOW, AND UNRULY INDUSTRIES REVEAL NEW STAR WARS COLLECTIBLES

Happy May the 4th! Check out the new Star Wars reveals from Sideshow, Hot Toys & Unruly Industries! 

HOT TOYS

In Attack of the Clones™, the protocol droid C-3PO™ left for Geonosis™ with Anakin Skywalker™ and R2-D2™, where he had a bit of a misadventure ... accidentally swapping heads with a battle droid! C-3PO found he was “quite beside himself,” literally on the wrong side of the first battle of the Clone Wars™.


The all-new 1/6 scale C-3PO collectible figure is skillfully crafted in diecast material and features LED light-up eyes, a blaster, an interchangeable battle droid head, and more!

The C-3PO 1/6 Scale Figure is available to pre-order now, via Sideshow.
 
 

R2-D2 is a loyal and dependable astromech droid who has bravely served both Padmé Amidala™ and Anakin Skywalker. A skilled starship mechanic and fighter pilot's assistant, he has an unlikely but enduring friendship with the fussy protocol droid C-3PO.

Hot Toys has unveiled a highly detailed R2-D2 collectible figure, featuring a diecast metal dome and a movie-accurate body as well as several articulated panels and a retractable robotic leg. Accessories include R2's rocket thrusters, a tether cable, and a wide selection of attachable mechanical arms and tools.

The R2-D2 1/6 Scale Figure is available to pre-order now, via Sideshow.

Hot Toys Electro

Hot Toys has unveiled a new addition to their much loved Marvel 1/6 scale figure lineup: an all-new Electro, drawing inspiration from Spider-Man: No Way Home!

No Way Home sees our friendly neighborhood hero's identity revealed to the public by Mysterio. Peter Parker's life is thrown into turmoil, and his responsibilities as Spider-Man begin to put the people he cares about most at risk.   

Seeking help from Doctor Strange, Peter unwittingly unleashes a multiverse of adversaries — and finds help from some unexpected allies. 

This stunning new Electro 1/6 Scale Figure is inspired by Max Dillon's appearance in the blockbuster movie. The figure features a newly developed hand-painted head sculpt, an ultra-detailed movie accurate recreation of his outfit, and a wealth of accessories including lightning effects and his star-shaped mask.

Find out more about the new Electro 1/6 Scale Figure, via Sideshow.com. Pre-order Electro HERE.

Sideshow's Batman & Catwoman Diorama

Sideshow's latest addition to its line of deluxe DC collectibles is a stunning diorama celebrating one of the most iconic couples in comics history. 
 
The Batman and Catwoman Diorama is an intricately detailed, fully sculpted polystone statue depicting a Gotham City rooftop rendezvous between the Bat and the Cat. Their body language sizzles with all the sensuality and playfulness that surrounds the relationship of the Dark Knight and his enigmatic companion.

Standing an impressive 20” tall and 9.25” wide, the Batman and Catwoman Diorama is a must have for DC comics fans, and a fine addition to any collection.

The Batman and Catwoman Diorama is available for pre-order now, via Sideshow HERE.

The box design is always on point and matches well with all the other Peanuts Supersize vinyl figures that have been released so far. Add Charlie Brown to your collection today HERE for $295.

Super7 released Disney's Pinocchio Supersize Vinyl Figure. 16" tall and comes in a huge box. The packaging design matches the other 2 previous released supersize vinyl figures. Take home this "real boy" today HERE for $295.
 

Robo Force 7.5" Action Figures

Nacelle Company has revived Robo Force with a 7.5" Action Figure line. 

Robo Force’s Maxx Steele and Wrecker return as part of Nacelle’s Very Important Toy Line of 7.5-inch scale figures. These deluxe, fully articulated, 7.5” figures feature beautiful package art, alongside its own collector-friendly window box. 

Maxx Steele was destined to be the latest and greatest in law enforcement (he was literally built to do it), but on the day before his first patrol, the UTOPIA101 line was revealed to the world. Maxx Steele was quietly reassigned to the traffic beat. Despite his best efforts to conform, Maxx Steele's passion for crime fighting, along with a growing distrust of the UTOPIA line, leads Maxx down a path into other, unauthorized, lines of police work. This will create problems. A LOT of problems. 

Wrecker was built to be the jack-of-all-trades for the ROBO FORCE line; he has a tool for every occasion. Sadly, due to the rise of the UTOPIA101 line, those occasions never occurred. Reassigned to use his staggering strength and empathy codex to do the most mundane jobs in the basement of Police Rhombus HQ, Wrecker eventually teams up with Maxx Steele to help protect the innocent, and keep an eye on the increasingly erratic UTOPIA Force (as well as Hun-Dred and his evil minions).

You can pre-order Maxx Steele and Wrecker for $49.99 each or you can get them in a bundle with a t-shirt for $115 at The Nacelle Company store HERE.

Super7's Disney's Fantasia Ben Ali Gator Supersize Figure

Super7 recently released Disney Fantasia's Ben Ali Gator Supersize Vinyl Figure. Figure stands 16" tall and comes in a huge box. The outer box packaging matches the previously released Brave Little Tailor Mickey Figure and just released Pinocchio. These retail for $295. You can order yours HERE.

HOT TOYS TRANSPORT TROOPER

Just ahead of the figure's worldwide release, Sideshow's newest FIRST LOOK VIDEO gives fans an up-close look at the new Transport Trooper by Hot Toys.

The Transport Trooper was seen in season 2 of the hit Disney Plus series, The Mandalorian™.
