Kotobukiya will be releasing a series of cute 5 cm high (1.97 inches) Indiana Jones “one coin figures”. The set will include eight different figures, two of which are “secret characters: Indiana Jones, Indiana Jones in a mine cart, Henry Jones Sr., Marion Ravenwood, and Mola Ram. If I had to guess, I would say [...]

Last month I showed you Hasbro’s Star Wars Mighty Muggs. LucasFilm is back, this time with the greatest adventurer of all time. Cue the John Williams Indiana Jones Raiders March Score…
“Made From 100% Recycled Awesome”, these very affordable vinyl figures (the Star Wars versions run from $10-$15) will probably hit stores in Summer 2008. The [...]

Is this another scoop, and possibly large spoiler, for The Dark Knight originating from New York’s Toy Fair? It’s hard to say. A figurine for Deathstroke, a villainous mercenary, member of the Teen Titans (alongside Batgirl) and fan favorite, was recently spotted in a Mattel toy showcase for the Batman Begins sequel. Deathstroke’s figure wasn’t [...]

Nightmare Before Christmas use to be one of my favorite films. Tim Burton’s designs would make such great toys, but all the releases from the Nightmare series have disappointed me to the point of no purchase. I did buy up all of the small figures from Burton’s short story book The Melancholy Death of Oyster [...]

A ton of cool movie-related action figures were revealed at the 2008 Toy Fair in New York City this weekend. Check out some photos of the cooler toys after the jump thanks to Figures.com, ActionFigureInsider, and BloodyDisgusting.

Found on Flickr, this life size Indiana Jones LEGO statue is on display at Toy Fair 08, which is happening right now in New York City. We’ve found a few more photos of the creation over at Gizmodo, check them out after the jump.

Ever since I saw the first teaser trailer for the new Pixar film, I’ve been anxiously awaiting the day when Disney releases a WALL-E that can run around my apartment and scare my cat. Last week we showed you the first released photos of WALL-E action figures from the UK ToyFair. The action figures shown [...]

We’ve written about the Back to the Future and Silence of the Lambs minimates in past Cool Stuff columns. Diamond Select is working to transform other classic movies to little lego figure sized form. Up next is the classic spaghetti western A Fistful of Dollars.
Anyone that knows me, knows I’m not a fan of westerns. [...]

Even since I first saw the very first teaser trailer for Pixar’s WALL-E, I’ve been looking forward to getting a mini version of the little robot for my desk.  Spotted at the UK ToyFair is the first WALL-E action figure.
I’m not a huge fan of the toy company Pixar uses to produce their figures. They [...]

Artist David Flores hails from Southern California and you may have spotted a recent collaboration he did with The Simpsons Movie and retro-skateboard staple Vans a while back. He recently created this vinyl collectible of Disney’s Mickey Mouse for the Japanese toy company Medicom, which is just one work he’s done of the character. [...]

Diamond Select Toys has announced plans to release a series of Minimates (you know, those little LEGO looking figures) for the 1991 Academy Award-winning Best Picture The Silence of the Lambs. The minimate box set features Clarice Starling, Dr Lecter, Buffalo Bill and Hannibal the Cannibal. All four Minimates feature all-new Art Asylum sculpts and [...]

Hasbro has opened up pre-sale orders online for a 14″ Cloverfield monster figure that includes two interchangeable heads (calm and agitated), 10 parasites, one Statue of Liberty head and hours upon hours of fighting off dust-mites. Obviously, an extremely jelz Godzilla is subbing in above because no images have been released by the company, [...]

While on Holiday vacation back home in Boston I discovered this cool new line of Star Wars Urban vinyl collectible figures called Mighty Muggs. Usually the word vinyl means a toy is no longer a toy, and instead functions as art. This somehow raises the price value of a figure from the expect $10 or [...]

We’ve written about the Back to the Future minimates in the past. Minimates are little LEGO like figures produced by Diamond Select Toys. BTTF.com, the website for all things Back to the Future, has an exclusive “Enchantment Under the Sea Dance” two-pack featuring a rocking Marty McFly and Lorraine, both in prom attire. Available now [...]
