Brightest Day Action Figures Series 1

DC Comics' biggest event continues as Brightest Day burns away the Blackest Night! In this best-selling follow-up, the white light has resurrected twelve heroes and villains. Though the exact reasons for their rebirths remain a mystery, each is destined to play an intricate role in the future of the DC Universe. DC Direct’s Brightest Day Series 1 features three recently resurrected heroes, Aquaman, Hawkgirl and Deadman, and one previously resurrected hero, Green Arrow.

It looks like all four of the action figures in Brightest Day Series 1 include highly detailed accessories, but The Blot’s favorite by far is Deadman, who comes with a White Lantern power battery, an exchangeable unmasked head and an extra Deadman mask.

Each Brightest Day action figure stands at 6.5-6.75" tall, features multiple points of articulation, includes a display base and comes packaged in a 4-color clamshell blister card. These resurrected heroes are scheduled to go on sale March 2nd, 2011.

Disney x Medicom TRON Legacy Clu Kubrick & Be@rbrick Set

Medicom will be releasing two TRON Legacy Kubrick & Be@rbrick 2-packs to commemorate Disney’s release of the film on December 17th. The second Disney x Medicom TRON Legacy Kubrick and Be@rbrick 2-pack features a Clu Kubrick and a Clu’s Lightcycle Be@rbrick.

According to the film’s trailer, Clu looks identical to Kevin Flynn, the star of the original 1982 film, and rightfully so, as both characters are portrayed by Jeff Bridges. I assume Clu is the primary villain of TRON Legacy, and if so, this means the bad guys will now be wearing yellow instead of orange (as it was in the first TRON film).

The TRON Legacy 2-pack will go on sale sometime in October 2010 and will retail for around $30.

From the previews I’ve seen, it looks like Sam is the star of TRON Legacy and will be following in his father’s footsteps wearing a translucent blue uniform similar (just like dear old dad). The TRON Legacy 2-pack will go on sale sometime in October 2010 and will retail for around $30.
