IRON MAN lands in Penang !

The much awaited release of the IRON MAN 2 movie tie in figures finally hit our shores in Penang !!

From the classic armor from the comic series to the ultra cool Crimson Dynamo figure, I just got really carried away.

Especially the Crimson Dynamo figure which is by far the best sculpt I have seen yet.

Both are very solid looking and have more bulk then the Marvel Universe versions. A definite improvement and the addition of the repulsor blasts and power take off base for Iron Man is ultra cool. Shame he did not make it into the second movie (or did he...?) The armor cards and base also make for a cool Hall of Armor display.

CLASH OF THE TITANS - revamped for 2010

The classic movie Clash of the Titans with Ray Harryhausen's brilliant stop motion work is one of my favorite movies. It remains to be seen if the new CGI and 3D version can amaze as much as the original although having Sam Worthington as Perseus sure is an improvement on Harry Hamlin in terms of looking more the warrior.
Hope that Pegasus, Medusa and all the favorites can a good revamp with the new technology.


 KFC has captured the new movie in great 3D like image in 3 tumblers which look awesome to collect !

Iron Man - Hall of Armor

Finally I got around to sorting out my Iron Man collection and set up the Hall of Armor. Still needs some background but almost all the armor variants are up in their respective places. Still short of the golden first armor.

Oscars are out and grit wins over dollars !

Now that this years Oscars are over and human budget  "The Hurt Locker" triumphed over CGI multi million "Avatar", my believe in the Oscars is restored.




If you have not checked it out yet, a definitely must see movie, not just for the awesome gritty action but for the unique view which is seldomed portrayed in the movies. Is sensitive yet realistic without super heroics or the usual happy endings. Safe to say it gives a view of the types of dangers some of the bomb disposal people have to face on a daily basis without glorifying it. Sometimes it is not how much $$$ you pour into the movie but how much heart you put into it.


BTW this rivalry has another unique spin to it since Kathryn Bigelow is James Cameroon's ex-wife...hmmm Battle of the Roses ?

DC Infinite Heroes Firestorm

What a surprise to find a DC Inifinite Heroes FIRESTORM figure.  As a minor figure in the DC Universe, his figures has been hard to find so when I spotted this, is was a real find. A Justice League ( JLU ) display is definitely not complete without him.

Definitely on the look out for his two releases in the DC Universe Classic series.
