Blog@ contributor Julius Marx reminded me via his Action Figure Insider site, so I’ll remind you. The DC Universe Classics exclusive boxed-set of Adam Strange (modern) and Starfire is on sale now. First shown last summer, this is the first exclusive DCUC two-pack to be sold at Mattel’s collector-centric site, MattyCollector.com. The next set will be a Pre-Crisis Earth-3 Ultraman and Earth-3 Lex Luthor, and should be available in a few months.

Wait… so these aren’t the Toys R Us exclusives? I would have sworn I’ve seen them there recently.

Troy, was it you who used to do an toy/action figure/doll column for Newsarama? If so are you still doing it? I don’t pay much attention to the site nowadays.

Hey Harvey, I did indeed have a crew that wrote Super-Articulate. We gave it a bit of a rest after the convention season last fall, and we now have Julius and his AFI people doing regular news here on Blog@. Corey Henson and I (and others) through in our part when appropriate. Like today!
If you haven’t been reading regularly, I’m glad you’re here! Blog@ usually runs figure news a few times a week now.
