Super7 Spectacular Stay-At-Home-IC-Con Special Releases
With San Diego Comic Con cancelled this year, plenty of brands and vendors has since gone online with their own virtual events, and one of the more recognisable toy-brands (to this blog) is SUPER7, and they have had daily reveals via their socials (Instagram / Twitter), and here is a selection of some of them, with most of them still available online here for your purchasing pleasures... unless they are SOLD OUT, of course!
Japanese Vinyl released and since all listed as SOLD OUT include the following pieces/editions (each with no specific "quantity" revealed):
- Clear Pink Caveman Dinosaur (US$35)
- Clear Orange Pie Guy (US$25)
- Clear Orange Milton (US$25)
- Clear Orange Foster (US$25)
- Jade Edition Pocket Mummy Boy (US$10)
- Jade Edition Mummy Boy (US$65)
My immediate memories of Super7 were their "Japanese Vinyls", with my own personal purchase that one time in 2011 (Thank You, "Black Friday"), which unfortunately has since given way to regular licensed product releases, while said vinyls are regulated to event-exclusive releases, which I can imagine being snapped up by folks who can actually comfortably catch-up and complete collections without the (possible) stress of having to keep up with constant edition releases, maybe?
Although having the ability to release licensed action figures in their ReAction line, they are able to collaborate with indie (predominantly resin) creators in the scene, with a second release from KILLER BOOTLEGS and a debut from HEALEYMADE!
Two blister-cared ReAction figures from indie creators Killer Bootlegs and Healeymade made their debuts.
"Draco Knuckleduster" from Killer Bootlegs is released alongside a reissue of 2013's "Phantom Starkiller", each priced at US$18.00, and both listed as Sold Out (at time of this post).
"Hell-Bent" from Healeymade is a mysterious assassin from the shadows, on a mission of unknown origin! Priced t US$18 and currently still available (at time of this post).
LICENSED RELEASES this year features a sweet spread of pop culture, including the classic "Nightmare Before Christmas", "Back To The Future", "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and "PEANUTS".
Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas ReAction Figures sees Jack Skellington and Sally in NEON and Glow-In-The-Dark (SDCC 2020 Edition), with each priced at US$20 per. Given the opportunity, I would snag EVERYTHING "Nightmare B4 Xmas" tho...! Alas...
"Turn out the lights to see Jack and Zero glow! This limited edition 3.75” ReAction figure comes packaged on a die-cut tombstone cardback. Sally comes complete with her picnic basket, packaged on a die-cut tombstone cardback, and is sure to brighten up any room with or without the lights on!"
With their PEANUTS-license, Super7 offers up two products, including the 12" tall SNOOPY SOFT EARS (remember THIS BEAST FROM SDCC-2019?) priced at US$195 ... and SPIKE CACTUS CARD (US$20).
Peanuts Big Vinyl: "If you grew up on Peanuts, here is the puppy you’ve always dreamed of! This 12” tall, vinyl Snoopy features soft felted ears and a real collar with metal tag, and comes to you with an authentic adoption certificate in a pet carrier, straight from the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm!"
Peanuts ReAction Figure: "Say hello to everyone’s second favorite beagle, Spike! It’s Snoopy’s laid back desert dwelling brother (and pen-pal) from Needles, California, brought to life on a custom die cut cactus shaped card back."
"“Hey McFly, you bojo! Those boards don't work on water!” Direct from Back To The Future II is the Super7 exclusive 3.75" Marty McFly ReAction from “the future” of 2015! Future Marty comes with a hoverboard accessory on an oversize hoverboard card back!" (Buy here for US$20)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Ultimates! sees two product releases, including Glow-in-the-Dark "Baxter Stockman (US$45 - since sold out) ... and featured below is the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ReAction Figures – Ooze Canister" - priced at US$75.00.
