The Avengers Toy Line Sneak Peak

By
Zak over at onepercase brings us news on the upcoming toy line for The Avengers.


Universe, Legends, Earth's Tiniest Heroes, and a Hong Kong Mall, oh my! It's been a busy week for new toy reveals. See what will be draining your wallets in the coming months after the jump!

Don't forget to vote for SandwichJohnFilms on the KCRA A List-


First up, news from Hong Kong, where a mall known as "The One" has an Avengers exhibition currently going on. Courtesy of Marvel HK Toys on Facebook, we have photos of the upcoming Walmart-exclusive (in the U.S.) 6-inch "The Avengers" Marvel Legends action figures. Included in this set are awesome new sculpts of Captain America, Hawkeye, Loki and Hulk, a repainted Iron Man Mark VI (battle damaged), and a repainted Thor (from the Thor movie) with a new head.


Check out the connecting stands. And man does that new Hulk kick all kinds of ass. It's everything the 3.75" figure should've been and more.


Speculation on various forums is that this may be just the first of two possible waves, since a different Thor figure shown at last year's New York Comic Con is absent, as well as the inevitable Iron Man Mark VII and a Black Widow that every fan boy is hoping for. Do you really think Hasbro would skip the chance to release another Iron Man? Come on. More pics of these figures can be found at Marvel HK Toys' Facebook page.


Speaking of Hasbro releasing lots of Iron Men...



Courtesy of MarvelousNews forum member Dragon Kings, we have a first reveal of two upcoming box sets. Falling under The Avengers Comic Series banner, these two sets include repacks/repaints of existing Marvel Universe figures, but of note, the Hulk included is the new sculpt coming up in Wave 18, the next wave of comic packs, AND repainted as Red Hulk in a future team pack (that coincidentally went up for pre-order at BBTS yesterday). Hasbro is definitely getting their money's worth out of that new mold.

Also noteworthy in these sets are repacks of previously difficult to find Loki, Hawkeye, and (less difficult) Black Widow. Unfortunately, we'll have to deal with yet more Thor and Iron Man. No official word yet on when or where these sets will hit, but they are believed to be exclusive to Walmart.

And finally, not entirely toy related, but still dang cool, check out this new commercial from Target. It's like Super Hero Squad, only in real life.

Enter For A Chance To Win Pass To See MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS In Austin

By
Enter For A Chance To Win Pass To See MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS on December 5th at 7:30 PM in Austin. MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS explores the turbulent life of Mary Stuart ( Saoirse Ronan ). Queen of France at 16 and widowed at 18, Mary defies pressure to remarry. Instead, she returns to her native Scotland to reclaim her rightful throne alongside her cousin Elizabeth I ( Margot Robbie ), who rules as England’s Queen. Rivals in power and in love, and female monarchs in a masculine world, the two must decide how to play the game of marriage versus independence. Determined to rule as much more than a figurehead, Mary asserts her claim to the English throne, threatening Elizabeth’s sovereignty. Betrayal, rebellion, and conspiracies within each court imperil both thrones – and change the course of history.

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert?

By
Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert? We're halfway checked out for the holiday weekend, so let's end with bit of comedy. A litigious videogame player is calling Winona Ryder to testify as an expert in "alienation." Erik Estavillo has filed a $1 million lawsuit in California Superior Court against Activision Blizzard, publisher of "World of Warcraft," saying it "maintain(s) a harmful virtual environment to many of its customers by forcing them to follow the game's sneaky and deceitful practices." The plaintiff says he suffers from several mental health problems brought on by WoW's "alienating" features, such as forcing beginners to walk or run to get from one point to another instead of speedier options available to those who master the game or buy an expansion pack. Estavillo says that the slow pace is "deceitful" because more time = more subscription revenue for Activision. Here's where Winona Ryder comes...

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

By Matt Cummings
The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
