Today, Bottleneck Gallery is releasing a brand new print commemorating everybody’s favorite cute-alien-befriends-Earth-kids movie, Mac and Me, from artist Casey Booth!

A heartwarming story about a wildly designed alien who has to reunite with his family, and the human friends that help him along the way. Casey’s alternative movie poster captures the heart of the film while also harkening back to classic sci-fi movie posters, and we’re so here for the nostalgia!”

Toy Review - X-Men: The Animated Series Jubilee 1/6 Scale Figure by Mondo x Marvel

Toy Review - X-Men: The Animated Series Jubilee 1/6 Scale Figure by Mondo x Marvel

When my friends at Entertainment Earth reached out about collaborating on a toy review, The Blot knew exactly which figure I wanted to get my hands on.  I’d known for a long time Entertainment Earth carried Mondo’s popular line of 1/6 collectible figures for licenses such as Masters of the Universe, X-Men: The Animated Series, and Batman: The Animated Series, and there was one figure I’d always wanted to see up close– Marvel Comics’ Jubilee! A big thank you to the Entertainment Earth crew for this awesome opportunity.

Toy Review - X-Men: The Animated Series Jubilee 1/6 Scale Figure by Mondo x Marvel

Growing up in the ‘90s, I was a huge fan of the X-Men comic books, and my favorite character was the spunky mallrat mutant, Jubilee. Then she became a focal point of the classic X-Men: The Animated Series television show, which really cemented my fandom. When Mondo announced the X-Men: The Animated Series Jubilee 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure I was blown away. I loved how Mondo was able to transform Jubilee’s pyrotechnic energy powers into 3D special effects. But the promo pictures Mondo released don’t do this figure justice!

Toy Review - X-Men: The Animated Series Jubilee 1/6 Scale Figure by Mondo x Marvel

While I’ve been lucky enough to see a number of Mondo’s 1/6 Scale Collectible Figures in person at MondoCon, I’ve never actually held one in my hands… until now! Jubilee stands 9.25” tall and features a ton of articulation for all kinds of screen accurate posing. Jubilation Lee comes wearing her signature yellow trench coat and pink armor, and features a paint application that makes it look like the figure just stepped out of an episode of the show.  All of the figure’s black shading really does a great job recreating the iconic look from the television cartoon.

Toy Review - X-Men: The Animated Series Jubilee 1/6 Scale Figure by Mondo x Marvel

But what’s really amazing is how Mondo recreated Jubilee’s plasma powers. She includes two fireworks blasts hands, two “The Works” fireworks hands, and even a spark finger.  I love all the different combinations you can come up with.  Throw in the alternative bubblegum portrait head and now you’ve got the greatest Jubilee figure ever made.  This is seriously a must get figure for any ’92 X-Men fan.

Toy Review - X-Men: The Animated Series Jubilee 1/6 Scale Figure by Mondo x Marvel

The X-Men: The Animated Series Jubilee 1/6 Scale Figure includes four alternative heads (Neutral Portrait, Smiling Portrait, Bubblegum Portrait, and Sunglasses Portrait), three pairs of hands (2 fists, 2 dazzler hands, 2 grabbing hands, and 1 spark finger), two Fireworks Blast hands, 2 “The Works” Fireworks hands, Chili Fries accessory, a Slur-P Soda Cup accessory, and a figure stand for all your figure photography needs.

Marvel Comics “The Infinity War” Screen Print by Jim Starlin x Bottleneck Gallery

Today, Bottleneck Gallery is revisiting the biggest Marvel Comics event of 1992 - which also inspired one of the biggest movies of all time - The Infinity War! As BNG explained, “Based on the Infinity Gauntlet and Thanos’ quest to wield it, Jim Starlin’s cosmic event shook up the status quo at Marvel over two decades ago. As with any comics event, sensational promo art was created to help draw in more readers, and Jim Starlin’s promo art has stuck with us since childhood. Jim’s art, originally taken from a painting, features several levels of Marvel characters, from cosmic entities down to our favorite street-level capes, all against an epic space scene. We worked hard to recreate Jim’s original art as a screen print, and the results are out of this world!”

The Infinity War by Jim Starlin is an 18”x36” hand numbered screen print. It is limited to 200 pieces and will retail for $60.  BNG is also releasing an Acrylic Panel Print of the same image, which features digital printing on a 4mm thick acrylic panel.

Pinocchio & Disney’s Robin Hood Prints by Mark Chilcott x Bottleneck Gallery

AEW Wrestling Ring Minimates Playset with Excalibur by Diamond Select Toys

AEW Wrestling Ring Minimates Playset with Excalibur by Diamond Select Toys

Diamond Select Toys continues its new line of All Elite Wrestling Minimates with a Wrestling Ring Minimates Playset, which includes a Minimates figure of broadcaster Excalibur. Now all your AEW Minimates have a place to wrestle! This is a wild release for a few reasons.  Lately, wrestling rings are not given wide releases anymore, so for a ring to be released this early in the toy line is great news.  It’s also crazy that Excalibur has gotten a Minimates figure before so many other AEW wrestlers.  But I do like the masked commentator’s inclusion with the ring over a referee.  It makes this a really unique playset.

This 6” x 6” wrestling ring playset includes chairs, bats, ladders and more, as well as an exclusive 2” Minimate of masked announcer Excalibur, featuring 14 points of articulation and fully interchangeable parts. It comes packaged in a full-color window box. Fans can pre-order the AEW Wrestling Ring Minimates Playset with Excalibur by Diamond Select Toys now at Entertainment Earth for $22.99 here.
