We’re the one weekly column right here on ScienceFiction.com where we seek out all of the awesome news you need to know about any announcements and cool happenings in the toy industry and put them all in one easy to find place for you! We are just a few weeks away from San Diego Comic Con and the exclusive collectibles doesn’t seem to be showing any signs of slowing down!

Hasbro Brings Forth The ‘Star Wars: Black Series’ Convention Exclusives

Kicking things off for the week, Hasbro has announced their plans for two all new ‘Star Wars: Black Series’ 6″ convention exclusive figures! Fans can expect to find an all new exclusive 6″ Kylo Ren figure at Star Wars Celebration 2016, and the first ever 6″ scale classic ‘A New Hope’ Obi-Wan Kenobi figure at San Diego Comic Con 2016 this summer! Each of these figures includes several special accessories packed in with them, so it’s being speculated that these will likely see a wide retail release without these accessories at a later date (much like the previous SDCC Boba Fett and Jabba The Hutt figures from this line).

“Tonight I Dine On Turtle Soup!”

Last week the team at Dream EX revealed plans for a phenomenal looking 1:6th scale Casey Jones figure from a classic styled ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ line of 1:6th scale figures, and this week they’re delving even further into the ‘TMNT’ character bank to bring us arguably their greatest villain, The Shredder! That’s right, Dream EX has announced their plans for an all new 1:6th scale Shredder figure. This Shredder figure will include a removable helmet (that also features a removable faceplate), several sets of alternative hands, a sword (with sheath), throwing stars, a canister of mutagen ooze, and even a communicator so he can speak to Krang all the way over in Dimension-X!

Shredder_07__scaled_600

There is currently no release date for this figure at this time, but it is expected to be hitting the market before the year is out. With Shredder and Casey coming our way so soon, we can only hope it’s a matter of time before we get information on the Turtles themselves…

Walmart Rolls ‘Squad’ Deep With New Exclusives

While a lot of people weren’t really feeling ‘Batman v Superman’ earlier this year, most seem to be excitedly looking forward to DC’s other live action comic book adaptation, ‘Suicide Squad’, which comes out a little later this summer. Now Walmart is getting in on the excitement with two new exclusive figures from the film that you won’t be able to find anywhere else! The team at Mattel looks to be doing a fantastic job bringing this film’s toyline to life as a part of their 6″ scale ‘DC Multiverse’ line, and this summer you’ll only be able to find their Rick Flagg and El Diablo 6″ DC Multiverse figures at Walmart! Unlike most figures in this line, these aren’t expected to come packed with any ‘Collect-And-Connect’ pieces (the regular line comes with pieces to build Killer Croc, and most exclusive figures include pieces for a Killer Croc Jacketed variant), but Rick Flagg is rumored to come packed with a massive load of weapons, while El Diablo includes an alternative set of hands (so he can be flamed on or off). These Walmart Exclusive ‘Suicide Squad’ DC Multiverse figures from Mattel are expected to hit stores sometime in the next month or two, so keep your eyes peeled or risk missing out!

Dreams Come True Thanks To Quantum Mechanix

If there’s one thing that the collectibles world is seriously lacking, it’s mashups of superheroes and H.P. Lovecraft. In a triumphant first (how did it take us this long to get here?), the team at Quantum Mechanix are bringing collectors a truly unique piece as this years San Diego Comic Con exclusive Q-Fig Max figure of Aquaman with Cthulu! This is the first ever large scale Q-Fig Max, and wow is it an exciting introduction to the line! The Q-Fig Max line will bring all of the fun of Q-Fig’s to a larger scale with a larger display base that is literally double the standard size of most Q-Fig bases. The convention exclusive Aquaman with Cthulu is up for pre-order soon from QMX and will retail for around $49.99. Check out the full release below:

QMX-Aquaman-and-Cthulho-Q-Fig-001

On a good day, Cthulhu, the fictional cosmic entity created by writer H.P. Lovecraft, has seemingly limitless contempt for humanity. But Aquaman has changed all that.

Using his telepathic ability to communicate with aquatic life, the King of the Seven Seas is partnering with this octopus-human-dragon hybrid. Sure, Cthulhu still looks a little cranky, but he and the ruler of Atlantis are now BFFs. In fact, they’re so close that the lobster on our hero’s shoulder is looking pretty steamed.

QMX-Aquaman-and-Cthulho-Q-Fig-002

To all of Aquaman’s detractors, the duo says this: “Talking to fish is not a lame superpower?”

Aquaman & Cthulhu is the first in our line of Q-Fig Max Figures, which feature extra-large dioramas that make these figures about twice the size of standard Q-Fig when viewed in their entirety.
