With SDCC less than a month away, Munky King keeps bringing on more updates on their new original figure with Doktor A. Last mentioned HERE and HERE, we are speculating the SDCC Exclusive of the Mr. Pumfrey figure to be the MK Black and Gold. Above is a bit more of a clear shot of what the body will look like. Could there be even more to this amazing figure? Only time will tell!

They will go on sale HERE on June 24th PDT.

It’s exclusive season once again. DKE has started to announce it’s SDCC goodies. First up is the Mys’tea’riuous Lunartik Special Brew by Matt Jones. This special edition Lunartik tea seems to re-envision the character as a masked superhero (or villain?) – perfect for Comic-Con. The black, yellow + gray color scheme pops nicely on this one. Limited to 200 numbered pieces (100 of which will be at SDCC), Mys’tea’rious will be available for $22 at the DKE booth (#5045). If you won’t be attending SDCC, you can reserve one now from Lunartik.com.
As you may know, Super7 has been working for the past year or so on their Alien ReAction 3.75” action figures which are based on prototypes and designs for a line which was aborted in 1979 and never produced, until now. For SDCC, Super7 is offering several Alien ReAction exclusives.
While the full line of five painted figures, The Alien (‘Big Chap’) complete with extendable jaws, removable dome, and GID head, Ripley, Ash, Dallas and Kane in Nostromo Spacesuit, is not yet ready, Super7 is offering a special ‘Discovered Sales Samples’ 2-pack ($40) featuring light blue editions of the Alien (Big Chap) and Kane complete with mock Toyfair 1979 ‘cancelled’ promo sample boxes complete with faux letter to the sales staff. This proto style set cleverly re-imagines the original fate of the once-cancelled Alien figures in a much more dramatic and fun light.
They will also be offering a pre-order for the full set of five figures complete with a free Early Bird Package which includes an Alien figures display stage, Space Club membership card, Alien photos and a sheet of Alien stickers. The Early Bird pre-order is $100 for people in the continental United States and $125 for all other collectors. The pricing includes shipping which is expected to happen in the fall quarter (10.1 – 12.31). The early bird package (minus the figures) will be available for pickup at the show.
Finally, Super7 will be giving away free SDCC exclusive Alien ReAction 3.75 figure bases and free Alien ReAction Figure catalogs while they last. All of this Alien ReAction fun will be available @ the Super7 booth (#5245). For more photos of everything Alien ReAction including the pegs and the catalog check out S7’s Flickr.
