Action Figure Express has an exclusive version of the Masters of the Universe Sorceress mini-statue coming up from the Four Horsemen. The colors of the regular statue reflect those shown in the animated series from 2004. The exclusive statue uses the color scheme the Four Horsemen originally proposed to Mattel for the show. The colors are very similar to the original scheme from the character in the 80’s version of the animated series.

You can order this statue here. I have a feeling I’ll be ordering one.

TFormers.com has posted a gallery of images depicting the now infamous BW Neo Unicron mold that took the fandom by storm, but never surfaced for more than a blurry image from a test shot.

Looking at this gallery now, I would have to say I’m glad this mold was shelved and we got what became Armada Unicron.

TFormers.com has posted an clearer image of the teaser insert that came the THS-02 Convoy depicting design sketches for a Masterpiece Starscream figure.

The voice of Fry from Futurama, Billy West, has made a post to his message board making a brief disclaimer to a new poster and then continuing on to say that he is in negotiations to do 26 new episodes of Futurama that will most likely air on television before a dvd release.

From the post:

I’m thisclose to selling my show–”Billy Bastard–Amateur Human Being,”
And the other good news is that they’re doing 26 new episodes of
”Futurama” for TV and we’re hammering out the deal now.The original
plan was to have the DVD’s first but that’s no longer the case.I’m totaly
jammed dude.

Greetings from the year 3000! It still sucks!

Billy

TFW2005.com has posted a gallery of what could possibly be the prototype of Astrotrain from the upcoming Neo G1 line that Hasbro has been teasing us with since Botcon. Little is known about the line other than it will contain updated versions of classic characters from Generation 1, the original series that kicked off the franchise so many have followed for a long time. Click below to see some of the images. To see the full gallery go here.

Greg Weisman, the co-creator of the Gargoyles has given an interview to comicbookresources.com. In it he describes his work on the upcoming Gargoyles comic book. The book will be in canon with the animated series and take place after the end of Season 2. After Season 2, Weisman had left the series for various reasons and Disney decided to continue without him on what is popularly known as the worst season of Gargolyes, The Goliath Chronicles. Just reading the interview, it is very clear that Weisman has a direction with this book and plenty of material. The book is slated for a possible June release, so keep an eye out. I know I will be.
