Blammoids! Series 4 Mini PVC Figures by DC Direct

Earlier this week, DC Direct finally announced the release of its fourth (and probably last) wave of Blammoids! mini figures. Blammoids! Series 4 includes The Flash, Hawkman, the Martian Manhunter, Brainiac, Zoom and Etrigan the Demon.


While The Blot had high hopes for this line of cute designer vinyl figures, from everything I’ve read it doesn’t appear that the Blammoids! toy line is selling all that well. For some reason, I think collectors have spurned the idea of these abstract chunky 3 inch figures of their favorite super heroes and villains. I got to see Series 1 a few weeks ago at my local comic book shop, and they honestly did look better in person. But with that being said, I still didn’t buy any.



Each Blammoids! Series 4 PVC mini figure features three points of articulation and comes packaged on a blister card. Blammoids! Series 4 is scheduled to go on sale on December 1, 2010.

And really, what signifies summer time more than cupcakes and baseball!?!
