Introduction to AIC 120 News
00:00:05
Speaker
AICNN, where toy news matters. And now AIC120.
00:00:17
Speaker
Welcome to the AIC 120. Give us two minutes and we'll give you the news.
Virtual San Diego Comic-Con & Mattel Announcements
00:00:22
Speaker
It's Virtual San Diego Comic-Con Week. I'm the con-exclusive you'll struggle to get. Dave and Eric are out. Fall in, maggots! As part of their week-long set of reveals leading up to Comic-Con, Mattel Creations showed off their new WWE Ultimate Sergeant Slaughter.
00:00:39
Speaker
Modeled after the LJN Superstars line, the figure will come on a highly detailed card back with randomly inserted black variants. Mattel also announced as part of this week-long slew of announcements, a Masters of the Universe revelation scare glow, Kevin from Pixar's Up, and much, much more. They will all be available on MattelCreations.com starting at 12 PM Eastern on July 22nd.
Marvel Legends & Hasbro's Galactus Project
00:01:06
Speaker
Who puts the gliding gladiator? Marvel's Hercules has arrived to the Hasbro Marvel Legends line on a vintage card back and is available for pre-order now at many retailers. Oh, and by the way, speaking of Hasbro, the Galactus Haslab project is live.
00:01:21
Speaker
For $400, you can bring home the devourer of worlds provided 14,000 other buyers want to as well. At 32 inches tall, he is the largest Marvel Legends figure to date, and with well over 7,000 backers as of this recording, it is likely only a matter of days until it is fully funded. The project runs until August 30th.
Upcoming Star Trek Figures by Playmates
00:01:41
Speaker
Beam us up, Varner Studios. Playmates announced that they are once again set to boldly go with the Star Trek brand in 2022. With scopes provided by Varner Studios like the original line in the 90s, this line has the potential to recapture the magic of that original wave of figures.
FunkCon Announcements & AIC 120 Conclusion
00:02:00
Speaker
Lastly, Funko wrapped up their week-long onslaught of reveals during FunkCon, announcing pops and sodas ranging from Disney, Marvel, The Office, DC Comics, obscure serial brands, Mubi, My Hero Academia, Pokemon, and of course much, much more. The full list and exclusivity grid can be found on our Instagram. On behalf of the Adventures in Collecting crew, this has been your AIC 120.
