A Guide To Every Sixth Scale Wolverine Figure Ever Made

Despite all of their popularity, the X-Men have often struggled to spin-off their characters into solo success. That is, with the exception of one lone amnesiac loose cannon and his six adamantium claws. Everyone loves Wolverine, whether it be in the comics, on the movie screen, or in cartoons. Such perennial popularity has inspired plenty of collectibles based on the character, including those of the Sixth Scale variety. We're going to take a look at every 1/6 scale Wolverine figure ever made (at least that we know of) in order to see which of the Wolverines you absolutely must own....

A Guide to Every Hot Toys Star Wars Stormtrooper Sixth Scale Figure, Part I

Star Wars is one of those pop culture staples that everyone is familiar with, whether or not they are fans of it. It has given us so many visual cues that are instantly associated with the franchise, be it lightsabers or Darth Vader or the Millennium Falcon. One of those instantly recognizable pieces of Star Wars has been and continues to be the Stormtrooper. Even people that hate science fiction, in general, can recognize a Stormtrooper with their iconic beady-eyed helmet and stark white-and-black armor. As a result, there have been a rather large amount of variations of the Stormtrooper in...

Hot Toys announces New “Stealth Suit” Spider-Man: Far From Home Figure

Is a Spider-Man action figure still a Spider-Man action figure if it doesn’t look anything like, well, Spider-Man? Hot Toys thinks so! They’ve just announced their 1/6 scale “Stealth Suit” Spider-Man, based on Spidey’s sleek new look in the forthcoming Spider-Man: Far from Home film releasing on July 2nd. Admittedly, the all-black number is a tad underwhelming in the Spider-branding department. I wish some element besides the eyes or web-shooting hands said, “Spider-Man,” but I suppose that would defeat the purpose of the “stealth” factor. Peter can always double as a tactical goon for your Captain America to fight, or...

Hot Toys Figures We Need To See Made

Hot Toys releases a lot of 1:6 scale figures in a given year from a number of different movies and sometimes even a television show or two. We have even seen some figures launch from their Videogame Masterpiece line of figures but very few to date. Despite the onslaught of new releases if you’re anything like me then you’ve probably said to yourself, “Gee, I wish Hot Toys would make a figure of this character” or “Darn, it sure would be great if Hot Toys would finish this team off.” After all, Hot Toys is somewhat notorious for not completing...

The Steel 2.0 (Colossus) by Toys Era Pre-Order Coming Soon!

The Steel 2.0 (Colossus) Premium Edition Toys Era PE002 - Pre-Order is NOW LIVE! Following the massive success of Deadpool 2, with an average score on RottenTomatoes of 82%, it's truly shocking that one sixth scale manufacturer Hot Toys has only explored producing Deadpool himself in 1:6 scale as apart of their Movie Masterpiece Series. With no pre-order announcement or reveal of Cable, Colossus, or Domino it's nice to see another 1:6 scale manufacturer stepping up to the plate and tackling these other characters so fans can complete their display. Toys Era back in 2017 shipped a figure they dubbed, 'The Steel' which was our big...

The Poison (1:6 scale figure) by Bullethead is now up for Pre-Order!

The Poison 1:6 scale figure by Bullethead, a Chinese one sixth scale manufacturer, is now available for Pre-Order here @ ToyOrigin.com! While we have seen very little from this one 1:6 scale figure manufacturer in the past, the prototype photos of this figure are lookin' mighty good! The figure appears to be using a custom 1:6 scale body that is not commonly used that measures in at 37cm tall and looks beefy and muscular, very true to the original comic book character this collectible is based off. The movie launches this Fall (2018) and fans everywhere are on the edge...
