The Hot Toys Lone Ranger 1/6th scale Tonto Figure

Welp...the movie didn't do so hot...and Mr. Depp didn't exactly ingratiate himself with the public by blaming movie critics for the film's flop...but this is America, where we love jerks no matter what they do...AND BUY ACTION FIGURES OF THEM! Yay. Hot Toys adds to your legion of high end, eerily life-like 12 inch action figures with the white faced, crow headed, insane American Indian you want to snuggle up with and go "shhh..shhh...just make another pirates movie...shhhh".

Toy Fair 2013 : Lone Ranger Action Figures

Our friend Rick E @blanka1212 on Twitter asked us if we knew anyone besides LEGO who might be making Lone Ranger toys. We gather he's wanting some legit action figures. Our latest look around the world of plastics revealed a familiar friend that just announced some new licenses..and now.. one more...mayyybe.

Disney in 2013

This time of year you'll see list after list of the things folks loved and hated...cheered for and wanted to set themselves on fire in protest towards. It's all very dramatic and I know for a fact a good half of the sites would rather not write them at all...but the hungry animal called society demands their lists. Today, I come not to feed the beast but to look forward (as we have been with our Toy Fair build up beginning 2 months early) as we glance into Disney's movie slate for 2013!! (providing we survive tomorrow's world ending kerfuffle, of course.)

Oz The Great and Powerful: Disney’s fantastical adventure “Oz The Great and Powerful,” directed by Sam Raimi, imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum’s beloved wizard character. When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he’s hit the jackpot—fame and fortune are his for the taking—that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity—and even a bit of wizardry—Oscar transforms himself not only into the great wizard but into a better man as well. When small-time magician Oscar Diggs (James Franco) pulls one flimflam too many, he finds himself hurled into the fantastical Land of Oz where he must somehow transform himself into the great wizard—and just maybe into a better man as well.

LEGO in 2013: Legion of Mini Super Heroes

Toy Fair 2012 is over 2 months away, but if San Diego Comic Con can start their pre-show prep, so can we! We've been laying out Hasbro's action figure and construction kit plans for next year. Now we'll take a look at what LEGO has planned for their DC Comics and Marvel Comics universes.

For those looking forward to a new year when LEGO might explore the full breathe of the Marvel and DC comics worlds, we have good news and bad news. The good news is that the Marvel sets will include some new characters. The bad news is most of those new characters are either movie related or have an animated angle. In that same respect, in their DC lineups, you'll get new characters, but a great deal of them are re-released or movie related. Let's lay things out.

NOTE: Titles for sets may not be final or exact translations. Our info comes from all over the planet! Also note these may not be FULL lineups.
