February 28, 2005 - (Sponsor Announcement) - Corner Store Comics has several new items of interest to collectors:

WE'RE BACK FROM TOY FAIR WITH TONS OF NEW LISTINGS!
It was another fantastic year at Toy Fair in New York! We stopped in to see the ware of some of the greatest action figure companies in the world, including SOTA, Neca, Mezco, DST, Toynami, Bleeding Edge, Joyride, DC Direct, Dark Horse, Palisades, and more. We saw so much new product for 2005 that we're sure that we'll be busy adding new figures for a long time coming. We're going to start this week with a focus on SOTA, adding more Street Fighter, Darkstalkers, Lovecraft, Micronauts, and more!

STREET FIGHTER KEEPS ON COMING! DARKSTALKERS TOO!
Our Street Fighter Series 2 starts rolling in this week, and Series 3 now has some preliminary pics. Now you can pre-order the recently announced Series 4 figures, as well as Darkstalkers Series 1, which includes Morrigan, Demitri, Lord Raptor, and Anakaris. You heard right folks... All four figures will be included in Series 1! There are no pics just yet, but if the quality and craftmanship remains steady, we're in for more great figures by the end of the year.

CHARMED SERIES 2: VAHALLEY OF THE DOLLS!
We saw the 2-ups of the new Charmed figures, and we definitely think they're even better than the first series. All three girls come dressed in arena garb from the Vahalley episode, and feature increased articulation and improved actor likenesses (not that the first series linkenesses were bad.) Joining the ladies is Leo, also in arena garb, looking very much like Russell Crowe. Any Gladiator fans out there looking for a figure?

THE RETURN OF THE MICRONAUTS! CHECK OUT THE PICS!
Many of SOTA's acquisitions are a labor of love for Jerry and the gang, and the Micronauts property is no exception. Entitled Micronauts: Evolution, this line will be the ultimate in what Micronauts fans knew this line of figures could be. With great articulation, interchangeable parts, and lots of accessories, this is definitely not your old 4" micronauts line! The samples on display were absolutely amazing!

NIGHTMARES OF LOVECRAFT IS NOW LIVE!
Also on display in SOTA's showroom was the line that we were teased about in San Diego last summer. Joining Cthulu in Series 1 of this deluxe line is Dagon (with articulated tentacles) and the Ghoul from Pickman's Model. The detail and workmanship are 100% SOTA, making this line a must-have for the fans of the lore of Lovecraft.

NEW HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES FIGURES ARRIVING NOW!
Sorry, folks... It can't be only SOTA this week. Neca has done some more of their typically great magic on the original Rob Zombie film, featuring Otis, Captain Spaulding, and Dr. Satan himself! You can also pre-order Series 2, which will feature characters from the upcoming sequel, The Devil's Rejects!
