Flashpoint, Malware And Doctor Who Toys And Statues…

What with the DC blog being considered a malware site right now, here's a perfectly safe way to see the San Diego Comic Con Flashpoint Zoom exclusive figure from Graphitti at Booth #2315.

And while we're talking about dolls, Big Chief Studios, the guys behind the Golden Compass and Harry Potter 3+3/4" figures have a new licence for Doctor Who for 1:6 scale figures and 1:4 scale mixed media statues.

The agreement includes rights for both the current series starring Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor and the classic series', from the very first Doctor William Hartnell, through to David Tennant.

Initial product offerings will include highly detailed 1:6 scale versions of the Doctor (Matt Smith) and his companion Amy Pond (Karen Gillan). Both figures will be fully articulated for maximum poseability and will feature authentic hand-painted character portraits, finely tailored costuming, signature accessories and themed display bases. To complete the first wave, other popular characters including Rory Williams and River Song will be released.

Key monsters and aliens from the hit TV series will also be released. Additionally themed 1:6 scale dioramas depicting the sets from the show will be introduced for collectors to create displays for their figures.

The Definitive Edition 1:4 scale mixed media statues utilize a blend of non-articulated, pre-posed figurines with authentic character portraits, fabric costuming and themed display bases. Select statues will also include light-up display features. These museum grade pieces will be the ultimate collectable for fans of the Time Lord.

BIG Chief will begin offering the first two character releases in Q4 2011, both direct to consumer via their dedicated website and through select hobby and specialist retailers.
