In this episode of Action Figure NEWS, I’m running through a bunch of the latest third-party and KO updates that collectors actually care about—stuff like Mess Toys putting out a painted Venom, plus a handful of other releases and pre-orders that have been popping up. This is the kind of news video where I’m not just reading a list; I’m looking at what’s shown, thinking about how it’ll display, and whether it’s likely to be worth your money once it hits. I also point you toward the listings I’m watching right now, including AC Factory pre-orders like Thor, the white/black Ryu Hayabusa options, and some other links people keep asking me for (Bebop/Rocksteady, Deathstroke, the Fury Toys lions, Spartan, and a couple of anime-style options like Revoltech Eren). If you’re trying to decide what to pre-order, what to wait on, or what to skip until we see final QC, this one is basically a quick collector-to-collector roundup of what’s new and where to find it.
