Iron Man : Mark 1 Helmet
Prop Replica


Manufactured by: Museum Replicas
Price: US $374.99
Est. Ship Date: 3rd Qtr 2008
Limited Edition: 500

Tony Stark, the billionaire industrialist and genius inventor has been kidnapped. His captors have one demand - to build a copy of his most deadly missile weapon, capable of unparalleled devastation. Instead, using his intelligence and ingenuity, Tony builds a high-tech suit of armor and escapes. When he uncovers a nefarious plot with global implications using technology he originally invented and manfuctured, he dons his powerful armor and vows to protect the world as Iron Man. This replica perfectly captures the amazing original helmet that Tony built in captivity! Code-named Mark 01, every piece is expertly hand forged in steel. The helmet is constructed with a hinge at the top for ease of dressing and removal, complete with lining made of cut-up suede "work gloves" and fastened at the sides just like the prop used on set. Includes display base and hand numbered certificate of authenticity. Stark Industries will only allow 500 to be made, so don't miss your chance to capture the Mk1 Helmet Prop Replica!

Rogue
Comiquette


Polystone Statue
Manufactured by: Sideshow Collectibles
Price: US $149.99
Est. Ship Date: 4th Qtr 2008
Limited Edition: TBD

Sideshow Collectibles proudly presents Rogue, the latest addition to our Marvel Collectibles line. The Rogue Comiquette is cast in high quality polystone, direct from concepts and designs by superstar comic book artist Adam Hughes whose critically acclaimed illustration meets pin-up style has made him one of the industry's most sought-after artists and a perennial fan favorite. Hand painted and hand finished to exacting standards, the X-Men's southern belle is ready for the gloves to come off. But beware, for even the slightest touch from her bare skin will render you unconscious and powerless. Whether from her powerhouse punch or her delicate kiss, there is no doubt about it... Rogue is a real knockout.

Rogue's mutant abilities are both fantastic and tragic. Able to temporarily absorb the memories and powers of others, she is one of the most powerful mutants of all. Due to the nature of her power, however, she is unable to allow her skin to make casual contact with anyone else, as she learned during her very first kiss. A young runaway from Mississippi, Rogue was taken in by Mystique and Destiny who raised her to be a part of their criminal exploits and a member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. On her first mission, Rogue used her mutant ability on the heroine Ms. Marvel, but unable to fully control her powers, Rogue absorbed Ms. Marvel's memories and powers permanently. Although she gained super-strength, near invulnerability and flight from the encounter, she also became distraught over her lack of control. Rogue quickly realized she was a danger to others and sought the help of the X-Men who took her in and made her a member of their team.
