This December will see the first release of any Mighty Meeples product with Mighty Meeples: DC Comics Series 1. The figures in the series will be sold in blind bag assortments that each contain three figures for a suggested retail price of $2.99. Also in December, the Mighty Meeples: DC Comics Justice League Collection Tin will be available for $14.99. The 30 distinctive figures in Series 1 offer a large variety for collectors to show off and gamers to play with in their favorite board games.

Next year, Cryptozoic will release more from its Mighty Meeples line, including figures for other DC Comics characters and the Ghostbusters-themed Mighty Meeples Ecto-1 Tin, which will arrive in stores in early 2017. GTS Distribution and Diamond Comic Distributors will be the exclusive distributors of these items—as well as any other future Mighty Meeples releases—for gaming and comic book hobby stores, respectively.

SDCC 2016: DC Comics Bombshells 7” Collectibles Pre-Release

Cryptozoic Entertainment and DC Entertainment are proud to announce the pre-release of Series 1 of the DC Comics Bombshells Vinyl Figures at San Diego Comic-Con. The 7” figures will be available at Cryptozoic’s booth (#115) before receiving a full nationwide release later this summer.

The statues were followed in 2015 by the DC Bombshells comic book series, which reimagines DC’s history by placing its heroines and notorious villainesses at the center of World War II, in the process drawing attention to the changing roles of women in that era. Now, DC Bombshells star in this exciting new line of vinyl figures from Cryptozoic Entertainment.

Series 1 of Cryptozoic’s DC Comics Bombshells includes several fan favorites: the mighty Amazonian princess Wonder Woman, the cute and crazy Harley Quinn, and the ever cunning and crafty Catwoman. Inspired by Ant Lucia’s illustrations and the DC Bombshells comics, these stylized figurines are approximately 7” tall and were designed by Pedro Astudillo and sculpted by Anders Ehrenborg.

Fans looking to collect all three of these DC Comics Bombshells Vinyl Figures—Wonder Woman, Harley Quinn and Catwoman—can purchase them at Cryptozoic’s booth (#115) at San Diego Comic-Con and, starting later this summer, at comic book stores, bookstores, and board game and specialty retailers, with a suggested retail price of $29.99.
