Marvel.com has revealed the first movie poster for the forthcoming Iron Man 3 film. Its pretty generic and could honestly be the movie poster for any Iron Man movie. There doesn’t seem to be anything plot specific about this. This is more of a way to begin the hype train that Marvel has been so good at fostering with their world-building movies.

Iron Man 3 will hit theaters May 3, 2013.
Thor: The Dark World is due November 8, 2013.
Captain America: Winter Soldier is coming April 4, 2014.
Guardians of the Galaxy hits August 1, 2014.
The Avengers sequel is slated for May 1, 2015.
Ant-Man is coming our way on November 6, 2015.

Marvel has clearly been busy making things for us to buy in mass quantities.

According to an announcement from Marvel Studios, Ant-Man will be coming to theaters on November 6, 2015. The movie will be directed by Edgar Wright.

Ant-Man is a Marvel Comics hero that can shrink down to the size of ants and communicate with the insects via a special helmet. There have been a few characters that have worn the mantle of Ant-Man and I have not heard much about the script or plot for this movie so its not clear which iteration of the hero will take center stage.

He-Man turns 30 years old this year. To celebrate, MattyCollector is having a one-day sale today, October 12, 2012. For US$30 you can pick up the He-Man & BattleCat Party Pak. That is both figures for just 30 dollars. Keep in mind that BattleCat alone sells for $33 by himself. This great deal is definitely the time to pick these two figures up either for yourself or to stow away as a gift for the holidays.

As a side note, this is pretty telling that Mattel went back into production for both He-Man and BattleCat with a significant production run to be willing to sell them for this low of a price.
