HOT TOYS DX 12 DARK KNIGHT RISES BATMAN






I started my Hot Toys collection with DX01 - Heath Ledger Joker and was very impressed with the figure and the accessories despite it's kinda high price. Now the value of this figure is almost doubled the price I paid for. However I missed the DX02 Batman because it didn't come with an extra Christian Bale head. So I  guessed that Hot Toys will come up with another version of Batman with the third Batman movie and I waited. Sure enough, Hot Toys came up with one - DX12, and this set comes with Christian Bale head! This figure have some mix reviews over the forum, but to me still looks awesome!

7-Eleven is offering Coca-Cola bears at $4.99 per piece when you buy any two Cokes. Three designs altogether..and I just got the Shell Lego cars display, very nice. 

SOUL OF CHOGOKIN MAZINGER DX







This is one BIG & HEAVY Chogokin Toy! This figure is to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Mazinger Animation and I am absolutely impress with it! This is a must have, if you are a Chogokin or Mazinger collector! There are plenty of reviews of this figure on the net, so I'll just go through quickly the play value:
It comes with lighted Hangar to display Mazinger, 2 working cranes and the hangar sides can store the extra parts. You can display Mazinger in 3 versions - the full mechanical ver, The half mechanics/half covered ver and the full covered ver. It comes with a remote control - the figure plays songs and sounds and have lights effects It also comes with a Mazinger comic, a booklet on the history of Mazinger toys and the Instruction booklet. Mazinger have superb articulation, but please note there are some complaints on the arms and pieces falling off easily. But if you are just displaying this big guy, then this wouldn't be an issue. To me it's kinda worth it and I think the price will go up in the near future....Bandai may re-issue this..who knows..
