Threezero Game of Thrones Tyrion Lannister Sixth-Scale Figure
Proving that Hot Toys is n’t the only toymaker that can make disturbingly lifelike miniature replicas of famous character , Threezero ’s new 8.8 - inch Tyrion Lannister figurefeatures a nigh - perfect sculpt of Peter Dinklage , capturing both the sadness and determination in the fiber ’s eye . The $ 200 articulated figure comes with multiple swappable hands , including a pair specifically designed to hold goblets and jug . It wo n’t be available until April of 2019 at the earliest , but that will likely still be well before the terminal season of Game of Thrones air .
Mezco Toys One:12 Collective Cyclops
A peradventure ( ? ) controversial opinion : nineties Cyclops was the best Cyclops aim . The open top mask is a vast improvement on Scott ’s original look , the add strap break up the dingy undersuit , and the classic visor is still far superior to thedumb X - facehe had until he died . So it ’s good to see that Mondo ’s line of splendid 1:12 action figures apes the ‘ 90s design , albeit with a fiddling extra lining on the suit for sometime times ’ sake . Cyclops come with a Christ Within up visor ( because of course ! ) and alternate head masks showing him shout out as he releases an optic blast , or electroneutral , complete with a very cool “ sizzle ” outcome to show he ’s just fired a shot off .
Hollywood Collectibles Group Ghostbusters Ghost Trap Prop Replica
Ghostbusters was not only a really fun film , it also had some of the coolheaded moving-picture show property ever created , like theiconic Ecto-1and the classifiable proton mob worn by Ray , Egon , Winston , and Peter . Also , who could forget the specter traps — which Hollywood Collectibles Group has now painstakingly recreated as these lifetime - size replicas ? Limited to just 500 piece , HCG ’s trace trap are hand - painted with meticulous weathering , and sport circumscribed functionality . They do n’t actually trap malevolent spirits , though , which makes the $ 500 Leontyne Price tatter a bit of a elusive birth control pill to swallow for anyone but die - laborious Ghostbusters aggregator .

To this day we ca n’t walk into a storage with a miniature section and not glance over the racks of hanging Hot Wheels cars . We ’re not really see for anything in particular these days , but with 10 million flyspeck dice - cast automobile still rolling off the assemblage line every week , pull together the replica buzz off in your blood and stay there .
