News: ReAction Alien playset an exclusive

I am sure the whole neighborhood heard me scream!

So Super 7 have been teasing us with some ReAction exclusives. I have held of reporting on it because there really wasn't any information.

So here it is, looks awesome right? Well yes it does but it is a SDCC exclusive limited to only 250 and for $100. So i am never going to get it, the hope is it will be released as a non numbered, non limited, non exclusive at some point, perhaps in a different coloured box?

Also this:

A limited exclusive (i think) blind box egg with a limited exclusive Alien character inside, that also acts as a stand. It my understanding that these will have new sculpts, colours and characters inside. I try not to do blind boxes anymore and am disappointed in this being a thing. Well i can see this alienating the completest and frustrating Alien fans no end.

Opinions: 

Boo...Hissssssss!

Super 7 have come out and said that all the ReAction sculpts will be available eventually, so that's something.
Also sadly they said it was basically impossible to make a production model of the play set. 

ReAction Preview: Horror series

Horror Series

Funko and Super 7 are releasing a Horror series for the ReAction line. The ReAction line creates 3 ¾” figures in a retro "Kenner" 5POA style.

 The crow figure looks cool, i only barely remember this i am afraid.

 Freddy looks nightmarish and therefore cool.

Now you can see who would win between Jason and Freddy.

 Michael Myers looks very cool as well.

 

I only vaguely remember these movies, as disturbing.

 This movie is cool fun and Sam is cute.

Opinion:

I like this line and think they are awesome. I have no real criticisms at all.

ReAction news; The Rocketeer SDCC exclusive

The Rocketeer:

Funko just announced a SDCC exclusive Figure for the 2014 SDCC (San Diego comic convention). 

 Its the Rocketeer in black and white. That is rather cool, though the movie was in colour. 
He would fit in with the Bif Bang Pow Twilight Zone figures.

 Here he is with the Ghostbusters exclusives for 2014 SDCC.

News: SDCC 2014 exclusive Ghostbusters!

Ghostbusters:

Funko just released pictures of its Pop SDCC 2014 exclusives!

Here they are:

 

The glow in the dark Slimer looks incredible ethereal.

 

This version of the Stay Puft Marshmallow man also glows in the dark with supernatural power.

 All the Ghostbuster together and they just got splattered with Stay Puft Marshmallow Man goo!

A metallic Slimer and a slimed Dr. Venkman look incredible.

 

 Something else:

Also as a bit of a bonus, though it has noting to do with SDCC, there is (was) a Hot Topic exclusive Toasted Marshmallow Man.

ReAction News: The Terminator

The Terminator

Funko and Super 7 are releasing figures for the ReAction line based on the movie franchise The Terminator.
The ReAction line creates 3 ¾” figures in a retro "Kenner" 5POA style.

 The Terminator movie was released in 1984 is a science fiction action movie.

 Is that supposed to be Arnold Schwarzenegger? It looks good enough i suppose.

 
 Looks cool has two guns.

The endoskeleton looks very cool it reminds me of my old Star Wars Kenner 8D8 figure.

A metalic chrome version of the endoskeleton looks cool, i wish they were named differently for ease of buying online.

 Look at that hair! Awesome. Though she needs an accessory.

Cloth coat looks pretty. Facial sculpt doesn't look too bad as well.

Opinions:

This line looks very nice, i may have an issue getting these unnamed variants though.

Preview: Disney Frozen Figures

Frozen:

Funko are releasing a line of there vinyl Pop figures based on the Frozen movie.

Not having seen the movie, i will keep the commentary to a minimum.

...

 I like the ice crystal or snow flake thing in her hand.

He reminds me of Hickup from how to train your dragon.

 Creepy exuberant snowman, a Yule decoration anyone would love.

Now this figure is cool, i want one just to display as a representation of Cernunnos. He would also look cool beside Rudolf as a Yule decoration.

Opinion:

I am sure fans of the movie will love them all. for others some could make excellent Yule decorations, it just a pitty they were not released to coincide with Yule in Australia (20th-23rd June). Well they can be displayed next year.

Kratos
God of War

 God of War is a Ps3 game, or series of games that are loosely based on Greek religion and mythology.
Kratos is number 25 in the Funko vinyl Pop Games line.

Kratos looks adorable in Pop form. Now this makes me want the other representations of the Olympian Gods from the games.

ReAction News: Firefly

Firefly

Funko and Super 7 are releasing figures for the ReAction line based on the hit series Firefly.
The ReAction line creates 3 ¾” figures in a retro "Kenner" 5POA style.

Firefly is a space opra adventure series released in 2002 where the crew of the Serenity struggle to survive in the future of 2517.

 Pilot of the Serenity, Hoban has a "Hawaiian shirt" so why couldn't (The Goonies) Chunk? He also has the most amazing accessory of any action figure ever, toy dinosaurs!

Jayne is a hired gun and he comes with two of them! 

 Ships mechanic and kind of a techno mystic savant, she looks pretty cool and i adore the accessory.

 Owner of the Serenity, he has a golden gun.

Second in command of the serenity and wife of Hoban, she is not a person with whom to mess.

Opinion:

Firefly is a much loved franchise and i am sure these will do very well. With a few characters missing, and a Reaver or two, i am sure there will be a wave two.

Release:

August 2014
