DC Direct First Appearance Series 4 - It’s been awhile since we have received a new line of DC First Appearance figures but the wait was worth it. Their are some really nice figures in this line including First Appearance Warlord, First Appearance Blue Beetle, First Appearance Stealth Mode Blue Beetl, First Appearance Aquaman, First Appearance Atom and First Appearance Martian Manhunter.

Medi Com Toy’s Real Action Heroes line of figures are not for the faint of heart. The detail, likeness and the added accessories are fantastic but they are pricey. The new Real Action Hero Jack Baur 24 Action figure retails for $200 and we are offering it on YouBuyNow.com for $190.00. If you are a 24 fan and you can afford the price tag, it’s well worth it. These are only available in very limited quantities so if you are interested, check it out at http://www.youbuynow.com/item/Jack_bauer_action_figure

Over the years, one of the biggest complaints we heard from people was that we were not making enough of the items we were going to carry, available for pre-order.  Unfortunately, we didn’t have the resources a year ago to do anything about it.  Now that we are growing and have brought on more people, we can and will be more efficient when it comes to making sure you can reserve your figure before we even receive it.  Over the last two months, we have made a ton of new items and action figure lines available for pre-order, check out the HUGE page at http://www.youbuynow.com/preorder.php but don’t panic if it takes a long time to load, it’s a gigantic page.

One of our regular readers just emailed me this link.  Some of these are old and I have seen them online before but many were new to me.  Very Funny stuff, check it out at:  http://www.yesbutnobutyes.com/archives/2007/03/top_15_unintent.html

As reported by ICv2, a specialty market news source, their is some question as to whether their will be a Spider-Man 4. One would think that the best performing Marvel Comics movie franchise of all time could and should support more than 3 movies, their are plenty of fantastic stories to tell. But do the people involved in the Spidey films feel the same way?
