Big Bad Toy Store

December 1, 2007 - (Sponsor Announcement) - Online retailer BigBadToyStore.com has several new items of interest to collectors:

--------------
NEW PREORDERS:
--------------

INDIANA JONES - HASBRO 2008: Hasbro just sent over information about its first wave of Indy figures slated to release in early May. So far they have sent over info about the 3.75" figures and their Adventure Heroes figures (which are similar to the Galactic Heroes & Superhero Squad). The first case of 3.75" figures contains 8 different characters, we have preorders listed for both the set and full cases. We have a few images from Comic-Con - this is going to be an awesome line

TRANSFORMERS REVOLTECH - STARSCREAM & RODIMUS: News of these figures just came in and preorders have been listed at $24.99 each. We don't have any good images yet, but expect these to be similar to the Prime and Megatron already released - ultra poseability and nice detail

ALIEN VS PREDATOR REQUIEM - MOVIE MASTERPIECE: Hot Toys continues their awesome selection of 1/6 Scale movie figures with three new entries. These are all coming from a domestic distributor, so the prices are quite fair. The Alien Warrior is $124.99, Predator is $139.99, and PredAlien is $169.99 - all look very cool

TRANSFORMERS E-HOBBY BLACK IRONHIDE EXCLUSIVE: E-Hobby returns with more low-run repaint exclusives. The E-hobby releases always seem to be hard to find after the initial supply runs out, so be sure to secure yours now at $69.99

TRANSFORMERS - AUTOBOT MATRIX STATUE: We've found a supply of both the original Matrix statue at $159.99, and also a new repainted version limited to only 300 pieces for $174.99. These have been highly popular so don't miss out on them again.

MARVEL EXCLUSIVE - PREMIERE COLLECTION STORM STATUE: This item is available only to retailers who have attended Diamond's Retailer Summit - limited to only 600 pieces, its a great new version of Storm that is sure to please

TRANSFORMER MOVIE DELUXE - OVERCAST & JUNGLE CRUSHER: Two new repaints for the 2008 line of TF Movie items. They are short-packed in the case of course, so pricing is $15.99 and $17.99 respectively, or grab an entire case of 8 for $89.99 - the case contains a nice selection of currently unreleased items as well as these brand new figures
