SDCC 12 Exclusive Marvel Universe The Avengers Helicarrier by Hasbro

Hasbro is releasing a super-sized Helicarrier at San Diego Comic-Con this summer as a tie-in to hit film The Avengers! Made for Hasbro’s popular line of 3.75” Marvel Universe action figures, this SDCC exclusive will measure over 4 feet long (basically the size of an ironing board) and will feature brand new Joe Quesada artwork on its packaging. This super-sized Helicarrier will also include two special edition Marvel Universe action figures: a brand new version of Captain America and a SHIELD Agent Maria Hill! While The Blot can do without a 4’ vehicle, I wouldn’t mind getting my hands on a Cobie Smulders action figure.

For those of you not attending San Diego Comic-Con this year, don’t worry. Hasbro will be releasing a standard edition version of the SHIELD Helicarrier in stores soon! But, if really want this over foot longer version, then head over to Hasbro’s SDCC booth #3329 where you can pick one up for $129.99.

SDCC 12 Exclusive Bloody Hooded Michonne The Walking Dead Variant Action Figure

If you haven’t been able to tell so far, San Diego Comic-Con 2012 is going to be all about The Walking Dead. The Blot counts at least five Walking Dead SDCC exclusives announced so far! One of those is this comic book edition Bloody Hooded Michonne variant action figure by McFarlane Toys. Standing 6 inches tall, to me this is the definitive Michonne action figure. It even comes in a cool full color blister card featuring artwork by The Walking Dead artist Charlie Adlard.

The San Diego Comic-Con 2012 Exclusive Bloody Hooded Michonne The Walking Dead variant action figure recreates the character’s look from her first appearance in The Walking Dead comic book series (issue #19 for those of you keeping track). This figure comes with a number of accessories, including her trademark katana sword and various other weapons, and features 22 points of articulation.

Fans can purchase this exclusive figure at the Skybound SDCC booth #2921 for $25 each.

First Look: Tube Monster Vinyl Figure by VISEone

VISEone is about to launch an all new toy line based on his popular dripping tube customs. Since VISEone started with his tube custom concept, he was hoping to be able to release his own character dripping out of a tube one day. Thankfully for VISEone’s fans, that day is finally here! The German artist is teaming up with Flying LuLu to produce the 8” Tube Monster prototypes you see above.

There are still some corrections that need to be made before it's ready for the wax model, but it looks like things are full steam ahead! The first Tube Monster colorway is the Zombie Juice Edition, which will tentatively be released at New York Comic-Con 2012. After that, who knows what awesome colorways might be in the works! Until we can see the final product, check out the 3D model and preliminary sculpts above, as well as the figure’s official packaging artwork.
