EW.com has the first images of the Watchmen action figures based on the upcoming Zack Snyder movie from Warner Bros.
The figures look spectacular, I just hope they are truly action figures instead of nicely molded pieces of plastic that end up as inexpensive maquettes for those who can’t afford the real deal.
If you happen to be in New York and are attending the New York Comic Con, DC Direct will unveil the first four prototypes on Friday, April 18.
BTW: Both figures will arrive in stores in January 2009 with a price tag of $14.99.

If you are one of the lucky few to be in New York next week, don’t forget the annual Toy Fair will be going on from February 17 to the 20th. I really wish I could go because I’m very excited about seeing the next way of the DC Universe Classics figures, including the giant build a figure Grundy.
One of the surprising figure sets that continue to be released is the JLU figures from a television series that has been off the air for a couple of years. I always make a beeline to the toy aisle of the local Target every chance I get to see if the latest figures are on the shelf. Unfortunately, the local Target is an hour and a half away as my little town only has a Wal-Mart, which does not carry any DC action figures (THOSE BASTARDS!).
While we probably won’t be seeing figures based on those above, the custom figures created by Jason Brashear do make me wish Mattel would continue to keep the series going until every single DCU character is released.

DC Comics has announced the World of Warcraft: Series 2 action figures and the Uni-Formz: Batman (modern) figure have been canceled and will be resolicited.
The Warcraft items will be resolicited in the November Previews and will arrive in stores in June 2008, while the Uni-Formz: Batman has no resolicitation date. This kind of sucks because I was really looking forward to the Batman figure.

As much as I disliked Grant Morrison’s initial run on Batman One Year Later, I love the art done by Adam Kubert. DC Direct is adapting his stylings to a new action figure line inspired by Adam’s recent work on Batman and Superman. In the first series, Batman, Joker, Robin, Damian and Ninja Man-bats are the order of the day, while the Superman series gets Superman, General Zod, Bizzaro and more. Take the jump for the loverly images.

DC has unveiled a new series of figures based on several DC Superheroines, all done in Anime style. First up will be Supergirl, Powergirl, Batgirl, and Catwoman. A shot taken at the booth indicates future figures will include Hawkgirl, Wonder Woman, Poison Ivy, and evil Supergirl. Not sure I like the rendition of the figures, but you can bet fanboys will snatch these figures up to display on their shelves.
Manga and Anime are becoming a big deal in the United States, so why not cash in on the trend? Take the jump for the full color images.
