A notorious Zaunite criminal, the anarchic Jinx brings trouble wherever she goes! Based on her appearance in season 2 of Riot Games’ Emmy-winning animated series Arcane, the Jinx 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure by Hot Toys captures this chaotic character’s signature look in exquisite detail. The hand-painted headsculpt comes with two interchangeable face sculpts and utilizes Hot Toys’ innovative rolling eyeball system, allowing for a range of nuanced expressions.

This dynamic figure is highly poseable with over 28 points of articulation and silicone-coated arms for a seamless look. Her distinctive blue hair is sculpted in two braids with embedded wire for additional posing options. 

Jinx sports her iconic cloud pattern tattoo and wears an outfit that includes a halter top, an arm wrap, a pair of wrist sleeves, a pair of purple striped pants, a belt with magnetic pistol holster, and a pair of boots with magenta laces.

Ready for action, Jinx comes equipped with an array of weapons including her Pow Pow minigun, Fishbones rocket launcher, Chomper grenade, and zap pistols. The specially designed graffiti-style figure stand creates a vibrant display. 

The Jinx 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure is available to pre-order now.

League of Legends: Lux Arrives in Print this November!

Posted on by

This November, read the entire epic of Luxanna “Lux” Crownguard, the noble born mage who has been casting her spell on readers in her digital-first comic series! Soon, and for the first time in print, you can read her comic adaptation in full based on lore from Riot Games’ League of Legends!

John O’Bryan, who has written for a number of animated TV shows including “Avatar: The Last Airbender,” is joined by the artists of Tan Studios, with penciling by Billy Tan, inks by Haining, and colors by Gadson. In Lux’s shining city of Demacia, order reigns. The realm is safe, and the people are happy…unless you’re a mage. In a place where ‘Mageseekers’ outlaw magic, Lux must hide who she truly is when she begins to exhibit light powers. But when she seeks out an imprisoned mage to learn to control her magic, will she protect herself…or doom Demacia?

In addition to delving into Demacia’s rich history, this adventure also features champions Garen and Sylas, and explores their relationships with Lux. Will Lux choose to stand with her brother Garen and the ruling class…or will she choose her place amongst the downtrodden Mages at the fringes of society? In the ultimate journey of self-discovery, Lux must straddle the line between her privileged birthright and her burgeoning abilities.

Whether you’re a fan of the game, or new to comics, this exceptional origin story is a great place to dive in.
