Hero Collector blasts Into retail with the announcement of NEW Marvel Heavyweights Wave 2 figurines

Posted on by Leave a comment

After a successful reveal at New York Toy Fair earlier this year, Hero Collector – designers, manufacturers, and publishers of high-quality collectibles from across the worlds of pop culture – is proud to announce Wave 2 of their Heavyweights collection featuring the world-famous Super Heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), captured in full cast metal!

These hand-painted figurines will be the second wave of the Hero Collector Heavyweights range, and faithfully reproduce the likenesses of the MCU’s most beloved costumed characters at 1:18 scale (approximately 4-5 inches tall) atop a metal base. Each figurine comes in a stylish collector’s tin, emblazoned with the character’s logo and movie of origin.

With the first wave scheduled to hit retail in September, this second wave will follow in Q1 2021, and feature characters including:

  • Ant Man, the smallest hero around! Scott Lang, ex-con and single father, was hand-picked by genius scientist Hank Pym to keep his awesome technology out of HYDRA’s clutches. The figurine is clad in his iconic shrinking suit from Ant Man, complete with his insect-like helmet.
  • Captain Marvel, the mightiest Avenger of all! Gifted with incredible cosmic powers by alien technology, Carol Danvers spent years as an amnesiac Kree warrior – only to reclaim her past on Earth. The figurine is cracking her knuckles after the battles she faced in Captain Marvel.
  • Star-Lord, the leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy! Abducted from Earth as a child, Peter Quill has roamed the galaxy ever since as a legendary outlaw… at least, that’s what he says. The figurine poses with the guns he used to fight Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War.
  • War Machine, the armor-plated patriot! Frustrated by Tony’s irresponsible antics in Iron Man 2, Colonel James Rhodes stole and modified an Iron Man suit to become an armored Avenger in his own right. The figurine is wading into battle with all guns blazing – and that’s a lot of guns…

This is all part of Hero Collector’s concerted push into retail with new products, new packaging, and new concepts, designed to reach a larger mainstream audience. The Hero Collector Heavyweights will be available from September 2020 at Hot Topic, comic shops, and specialty retail, and direct from the Eaglemoss shop online.

Posted on by

After an almost sold-out performance in 2018, Eaglemoss Hero Collector, designers, manufacturers and publishers of high-quality collectibles from across the world of pop culture, are back at New York Comic Con and bigger than ever!

Fans will be able to start or add to their collections – as well as purchase outstanding gifts for the fans in their lives – with special prices throughout the convention at Booth #737, beginning Thursday, October 3 through Sunday, October 6 at the Jacob K. Javits Center. They’ll also be among the first to learn about and get a look at some of the company’s most spectacular new releases.

Thirty-five years after saving the world from Gozer the Gozerian and an oversized Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, the original team of Ghostbusters and their celebrated Ectomobile are back in the city where it all began. Parked at Booth #737 throughout NYCC, the world famous ECTO-1 will invite fans to be among the first to sign up for Hero Collector’s Build the Ghostbusters ECTO-1 subscription program, which launches late 2019 in the UK and early 2020 in the US.

Once assembled, this iconic die-cast vehicle replica measures 31 inches long and 10 inches wide, and comes complete with working headlights, sirens, steering wheels, doors and a display case. The first 250 US sign-ups at the booth will receive the first kit and magazine in this build-up series at a special price, as well as a commemorative ECTO-1 pin.

Hero Collector’s set of officially authorized Ghostbusters Figurines will also be on display and available for purchase. Featuring film accurate recreations of Ray, Peter, Egon and Winston as they appear in the 1984 Ivan Reitman movie, the set will be offered for half price to any fan signing up on site for the ECTO-1 Build-Up.

Fans and collectors of all things Star Trek™ will want to make Booth #737 their own personal starbase as a host of officially authorized Star Trek™ exclusives will be on display, including never-before-seen starships and awesome show specials from across the many Star Trek collections for which Hero Collector enjoys worldwide renown under the license of CBS Consumer Products.

Making its debut at NYCC will be the incredible cloaked variant edition of the U.S.S. Defiant NCC-74205. A convention exclusive, this transparent variant is strictly limited and NYCC is the first opportunity for fans to add it to their collections.

Hero Collector will also debut their first-ever variant comic cover in conjunction with IDW Publishing. Available exclusively at Booth #737, the limited edition variant of IDW’s Star Trek: Year Five #6 comic book features a brand-new photo cover depicting the iconic XL Edition model of the fabled U.S.S.

Other new additions to the oversized XL Editions will also be on display and for sale, including the U.S.S. Excelsior NCC-2000 – not to mention the fan-favorite Star Trek: Discovery: The Official Starships Collection and the U.S.S. Discovery NCC-1031 herself.

Outside of the convention, Hero Collector’s Ben Robinson will appear at Barnes & Noble Union Square alongside Star Trek designer Todd Cherniawsky for a special Q&A discussion, followed by a signing. This is a ticketed event, and each attendee will receive a special goodie bag courtesy of Eaglemoss Hero Collector. Tickets are now available via Eventbrite here, and fans are encouraged to book early.

Having teamed with the WWE® to create the WWE Championship Collection, Hero Collector will showcase both current WWE Superstars and past Legends at Booth #737.

Later that same day, from 6:30pm – 7:30pm in Room #1C03, members of the Hero Collector team will reveal new additions to the collection as part of the not-to-be-missed “New Toys, Action Figures and More” panel hosted by Entertainment Earth’s Adam Pawlus.

In addition, fans can also subscribe to any collection to enjoy exclusive offers, free gifts and first dibs on specials.

Eaglemoss Hero Collector Invites Fans to Build the Original Ghostbusters Ecto-1

Posted on by

Eaglemoss Hero Collector gets all spooky in June when it introduces the Build the Ghostbusters Ecto-1 subscription program at the first-ever Ghostbusters Fan Fest at the Sony Pictures Studio Lot in Culver City, California.

Collectors, die-cast enthusiasts, hobbyists and generations of Ghostbusters fans will soon be able to build their very own ECTO-1 in the comfort of their own home or firehouse. This unique subscription program regularly delivers plans, parts and behind-the-scenes insights with which to easily assemble a perfect 1:8-scale die-cast replica of one of the most instantly recognizable vehicles in motion picture history – the ECTO-1 as featured in the original Ghostbusters movie, now celebrating its 35th anniversary.

Based on a careful study of the actual 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor ambulance used in the 1984 supernatural comedy, every possible detail of the ECTO-1 has been carefully reproduced in 1:8 scale. The doors, hood and windows all open, the headlights, tail lights, brake lights, and emergency lights all work, the siren sounds, and the steering wheel turns the front wheels.  The completed model is over 31-inches long, close to 10-inches wide and showcases the custom modifications made by Dr. Ray Stantz himself, including:

  • Ghostbusting Roof Rack with intricately reproduced and poseable P.K.E.-detection tools
  • Rotating Lights that illuminate and spin in tandem with the emergency siren
  • Opening Hood that reveals the highly detailed replica Cadillac V8 engine
  • Working Headlights and Tail Lights operated from the dashboard
  • Tires and Hubcaps with screen accurate Cadillac and Remington branding
  • 5 Opening Doors that allow access to the authentically detailed interior

Subscriptions are slated to begin in the fall, though the model and the car on which it’s based will be showcased at the first-ever Ghostbusters Fan Fest to be held June 7-8, 2019 on the world-famous Sony Pictures Studio Lot in Culver City, California. Attendees who sign up to the online newsletter and/or have their pictures taken with the model and post on social media will receive exclusive gifts at the event.

All fans are encouraged to register their interest and be eligible for the risk-free introductory offer.

Batmobile Cutaways: The Movie Vehicles 1989-2012

Ever since his modern cinematic debut in 1989’s Batman, the Caped Crusader’s one constant companion has been – no, not Robin the Boy Wonder – his iconic Batmobile! Part assault vehicle, part pursuit and rescue transport, part mobile crime lab and part the screen’s coolest  looking car, the Batmobile has always been the most technologically advanced crime-fighting asset in Batman’s arsenal.

Like the Dark Knight himself, everybody has a favorite Batmobile and now all of the cars, from Tim Burton’s 1989 classic to the conclusion of Christopher Nolan’s trilogy in 2012, have been brought together in one comprehensive, fully illustrated, 72-page volume from Eaglemoss Hero Collector, designers, manufacturers and publishers of high-quality collectibles from across the many worlds of pop culture.

Written by Alan Cowsill, James Hill, and Richard Jackson – with original illustrations contributed by Ed Giddings and Mojo – Batmobile Cutaways: The Movie Vehicles 1989-2012 is a one-of-a-kind visual reference guide featuring original cutaway artwork approved by Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment, as well as lavish illustrations and photos highlighting every vehicle from Batman (1989), Batman Returns (1992), Batman Forever (1995), Batman & Robin (1997), Batman Begins (2005), The Dark Knight (2008) and The Dark Knight Rises (2012).

What’s more, the book comes packaged with a 1/43 scale die-cast metal replica of the iconic Anton Furst designed Batmobile featured in 1989’s Batman. Now you can discover what lies inside this and many other machines with extraordinary cutaway art. Take a deep look under the hoods and behind the controls as weapons systems and construction secrets are revealed.

Like all Eaglemoss Hero Collector books, Batmobile Cutaways: The Movie Vehicles 1989-2012 (ISBN: 978-1-85875-542-7) may be purchased from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, Indigo, independent booksellers, and select specialty stores including comic shops and gaming stores.
