Super Hero Squad Repulsor Racer Picture
As promised earlier, here’s a scan of the new Super Hero Squad vehicle, Repulsor Racer, showing a blue version of the Astonishing X-Men Cyclops, as well as his apparent partner this time out: Iron Man. Go on over and discuss on the board.
Super Hero Squad Repulsor Racer and Hero Helicopter
Repulsor Racer is the Fourth SHS Vehicle
Super Hero Squad Wave 14 is shipping with new posters and while we haven’t had a chance to see all of them, we did get to see the Ultron/Kang/Doctor Doom versus the Avengers poster with an updated checklist on the back featuring: The Repulsor Racer vehicle! An apparent repaint of the Arachno-racer, it features a blue-costumed Astonishing X-Men Cyclops and an Iron Man figure. We hope to get pictures up, and a full look at whatever other posters there may be, this evening. In the meantime, go discuss over on the board
More Super Hero Squad Video Game Video
THQ’s site now has an interview from E3 posted which features some additional footage of the upcoming Super Hero Squad video game, including Ms. Marvel in action, the Abomination getting a beat down, and even the Thing! So head on over to the THQ site for more information or to view the footage.
Marvel Universe News
First off, Cool Toy Review’s posting a series of teaser squares from images in an upcoming interview with Hasbro’s Marvel Universe team and they’re inviting readers to guess who it is before the identity is revealed. All we can tell so far is that it’s someone red.
In other Marvel Universe news, users of the Fwoosh’s forums say that this month’s Toyfare magazine have full pictures of Wave 5′s Electro (also seen in the pre-order listings), and news of a black dragon Iron Fist, white costume Thing and Wave 5′s Spider-Man coming in two variants: dark blue and red, and black and red. So go on and discuss over on the Marvel Universe section of the board.
Secret Wars Super Hero Squad featuring the Wrecker
Clanure pointed out this eBay auction for a Super Hero Squad Secret Wars 4-pack featuring none other than the mighty Wrecker! Bane of Thor, perennial Master of Evil, leader of the Wrecking Crew, crowbar wielding madman that has taken on Spider-Man, Omega Flight, the Runaways, the Avengers and just about every other hero you can name! Also included are Hawkeye, Captain America and a Spider-Man. Share the excitement over on the board.
Mezco’s Hellboy Products
First off, the Super Hero Squad-like BPRD Buddies are in stock and shipping from various online retailers, and they’ve gotten at least one good review over on the board. Fans of the 3.75 inch line can see pictures of the upcoming SDCC exclusive Hellboy II The Golden Army Soldier 2-pack over at Action Figure Pictures, while elsewhere on AFP, they have pictures of the Mez-Itz Hellboy figure, which is sort of like a Mighty Mugg (or any of the other similar vinyl toys) for Mezco.
