Tyson B. Writes about toys and action figures for www.comicsheatingup.net as well as his own site www.toyboxone.com
This comes directly from Tyson’s site ToyBoxOne.
We saw the potential Lego set that was leaked last week. Well today I was doing a typical “force awakens toys” google search and look what popped up. It appears to be prototypes for potential additions to 6-inch Black Series. We already know that an EPVII Stormtrooper is coming to the Black Series and people are willing to pay for it. If we do some “carbon dating” on this picture we can see its been up and around since late last year so its nothing new.

Looking at the photo we could potentially get Kylo Ren, Finn (John Boyega), Rey (Daisy Ridley), BB-8, and Chewbacca. Chewy has me thinking Black Series as that prototype looks exactly like the current Black Series Chewbacca.

Some side notes, BB-8 doesn’t look as small as imagined in the trailer. Also looks like they are going to have their hands full with Kylo Ren as he is quite larger than anyone else. Plus, minus Chewy, thats a whole wave right there. I guess we will have to wait until midnight “Force Friday” Sept 4th to find out.

A conversation with Kevin Eastman

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the comic book, came out when I was 10. The cartoon came out when I was 13. I saw the first two movies in the theater.
Fast forward 30 years, I am the father of two young boys. My oldest son loves the Turtles. They have been around me for the better part of my life.

Overheard at Awesomecon! The end of most IDW GI Joe series

image
One of the nice things about walking around a con is people talk to you and let on things that aren’t announced yet. If they say “do not print this” then you have to go with it, but if they do not, then it is free reign. Take for example, GI Joe 214 being a silent issue. I have an early copy in hand that was given to me. Even without words, it is still an awesome book.
Another bit of GI Joe news is IDW is ending most of the Joe related comics. Most. Continue reading “Overheard at Awesomecon! The end of most IDW GI Joe series”
