Each has big armor, an awesome removable helmet, and butt-kickingness to spare. (Seriously, they'll kick your other figures' butts.) Pre-order yours today! |

Plastic Man Packaging Shapes Up to Be Super Special
     
From Matty Collector: One of the SDCC figures we know you’re stoked to see is the one and only malleable immortal, Plastic Man. Being that he’s a super hero and all, we felt his packaging should be equally impressive and here’s your first look! This special packaging has been shaped to look like Plastic Man himself and it comes in a full-color shipper box for safe keeping. But the coolest thing of all? A pair of Plastic Man glasses are included that can be removed from the package and worn by you! The figure itself has interchangeable standard arms, stretchy arms, giant form hands (a fly swatter and a bouncy ball with racket), and interchangeable stretchy neck and leg springs. If you do purchase Plastic Man at SDCC, he’ll also come with a special suitcase available only at the show (packed in a separate poly bag). Not just any suitcase, of course… his arms, head and neck can be attached to the suitcase to make him appear disguised as luggage. Inside the suitcase is a chip-art comic book cover from the 75 years of DC Comics. Can’t make it to SDCC? Don’t worry; Plastic Man (sans suitcase) will be available here on MattyCollector.com after the show, so keep your eye on this spot for more details! (Due to local regulations, Plastic Man won't be available for purchase in Australia/New Zealand. Sorry, Fans Down Under. We're bummed, too.) |
