As part 1 of our Mattel reveals, we have Mirror Master from Mattel’s DC Signature Collection/Club Infinite Earths subscription line. Right about now you are saying, “but we’ve already SEEN Mirror Master.” Yes. That’s true. We saw him at Toy Fair.
What we haven’t seen is the package with the bio… AND the fact that the figure now has two open hands that can hold both his guns. He’s holding both of them in the package. At Toy Fair the figure was shown with one open hand and one fist. Since his reveal fans have been asking for a change tot the figure to two open hands so that he could use both weapons. Mattel heard our pleas, looked into it and were able to change it in time, so that is the version we are getting. The fans asked, Mattel listened, we all win! BUT THAT’S NOT ALL! The other new piece of information for this figure is that it also comes with interchangeable mirror gun barrels! You can swap out and build the open and closed versions of his mirror guns with the two that are already attached and the two that come in the package. A very cool feature for this Flash rogue.
Thanks to Mattel for letting us break this news.
We’ve got one other Mattel reveal and 2 Mattel interviews still to get to in the next few days so keep your eyes right here!

One of the casualties of DC Entertainment “reshuffle” of the DC Direct staff and brand resulted in several key players loosing their jobs, some people that remained left the company instead of relocating to their new Burbank mothership .. um… offices. Also DC Direct seemed to have abandoned their DC Unlimted brand that handled licensed properties, consisting primarily of video game licenses.
DC Unlimited had the license for BioWares Mass Effect 2 game. They planed, showed and announced 2 waves of figures. Wave 1 made it to market, there were rumors of BioWare not being happy working with DC. The second wave remained in limbo.
Now rising from the ashes of DC Direct/DC Unlimited comes new comer toy company Big Fish Toys. Not a lot in known about Big Fish yet. As you can see there’s not much to go on from their website. I know that there are some former DC Direct staff that helped found Big Fish which is how they were able to secure figures that were developed by another company. They have issued a brief statement to those sites that have reached out to them:
Though it was only formed in early 2011, Big Fish Toys, Inc. is comprised of an A-list of action figure and toy industry veterans, each with 20 years’ experience at several leading companies on the most popular kid-directed and collector-appeal brands.
Over the past year Big Fish has operated primarily ‘behind the scenes’ –as a business-to-business vendor serving the 3D product development and manufacturing needs for video game publishers and other intellectual property holders. The SONY release of inFAMOUS 2 contained an ultra-detailed action figure statue of Cole that was produced by Big Fish. (Extremely rare ‘Red’ and ‘Blue’ variants were also produced at the request of the game developer Sucker Punch Productions.)
When Bioware and Electronic Arts sought to bring previously-developed, yet unreleased Mass Effect action figures to market, Big Fish Toys was able to incorporate the team’s goals and craft a business agreement that allowed the project to move forward. Big Fish will handle sourcing in Asia and wholesale sales worldwide through its established manufacturing and distribution partners.
This spring’s Mass Effect action figures will mark Big Fish Toy’s first release for retail sale under its own label. The fully-articulated figures, ranging between 6 3/8” and 7 ¼”, will be intricately sculpted with collector-level paint decoration. They will be securely packaged in a clam-shell blister card. The figures will be manufactured at a vendor who has produced some of the top collector action figure lines of the last couple decades, and in fact produced the Cole piece for Big Fish. Figures should be available for sale by April 2012. As a bonus, each of the 8 figures will include a downloadable content pack for the Mass Effect 3 multi-player mode (on PC and XBox) that could include powerful new weapons and new characters. The pack could also include character boosters, weapon modifications, and weapon upgrades to make your multi-player squad stronger.
SERIES 1 – Available April 2012
   
SERIES 2 – Available May 2012
   
Timed to coincide with the release of Mass Effect 3 Series 2 action figures (and the Mass Effect 3 video game), Big Fish Toys is making the first series of figures available once again. Now you can complete your team, just like Commander Shepard does in the game, gathering allies and companions in his quest to protect the galaxy from the onrushing threat of robotic conquest. Choose from: Tali (6.65″), Thane (6.75″), Grunt (6.8″), or Commander Shepard (6.75″). Each figure features multiple points of articulation and game-accurate accessories/weapons.
This product contains a code that can be redeemed for bonus content for Mass Effect 3 multi-player that could include powerful weapons to take on the Reapers. The pack could also include character boosters, weapon modifications, and weapon upgrades to make your multi-player squad stronger. (Content applies to multi-player mode on PC and XBox only.)
Mass Effect 3 Series 1 figures were previously released by DC Direct as Mass Effect Series 1 and this is the same figure being re-run as a Diamond Previews Exclusive.
We will keep you posted on all the upcoming Big Fish and Mass Effect news and releases.

WONDER WOMAN #600 STATUE
 BASED ON THE ART OF DON KRAMER
SCULPTED BY JACK MATHEWS
Paradise lost …
Concrete jungle found.
The gods of Olympus abandoned the Amazons, leaving Paradise Island to its destruction. As Amazons were slaughtered, Queen Hippolyta ordered her daughter smuggled away, as retreating warriors were scattered to the four corners of the Earth.
And now …
In a bolt of lightning and a rumble of thunder, Wonder Woman is back in black … and red, and blue. Diana rules over the rock ‘n’ rubble, ready to roll and take on those who still seek to destroy the refugee Amazons.
In biker boots and bracelets, the Amazon Princess screams dark and dangerous. Sleek and streamlined, Diana’s new costume oozes badittude and ready-for-fighting functionality. Inner-city smart and street-fighter savvy, this urban Amazon is heavy on metal and tough in leather.
With a new costume designed by Jim Lee, this statue is inspired by the variant cover of WONDER WOMAN #600. The statue is hand-painted, cold-cast in porcelain, measures approximately 9.75” high x 4.75” wide x 3.75” deep, and is packaged in a 4-color box.
