I have the original version of this statue (see him on our flickr), which features the blue/grey suit and it is by far my favorite Batman statue! I was very excited to see that they were releasing it with a black suit, can’t wait to add it to my collection!

The statue is manufactured by Kotobukiya and is scheduled to be released on 8/30/12. It is currently available for pre-order at the ComiGirl Online Shop!

Espionage has never been this fun!

Coinciding with the celebration of Mad Magazine’s 60th Anniversary comes the legendary deadly duo, Spy vs Spy! The monochromatic mayhem these two terrifically sculpted 9″ figures will cause is augmented by the deadly array of weapons included. It’s like the Cold War never ended.

Spy Vs Spy Vinyl Figure 2-Pack is scheduled to be released on 5/23/12. It is currently available for pre-order on the ComiGirl Online Shop!

From ‘Astro Fighter Sunred’ comes a set of figures of the cute little animals that are a part of the evil organization Florsheim’s Kawasaki Branch – The Animal Soldiers. They are made to be the perfect size to display with the upcoming figmas from the same series.

Each of them is posable all over, and Usacots, Devil Cat and P-chan Custom all come with optional parts to pose them in battle scenes. Hell Wolf also comes with a reversible speech bubble – the one side says ‘Chuki’ and the other ‘Korochu’.

The Animal Soldier Figures are scheduled to be released on 7/30/12 and are currently available for pre-order from the ComiGirl Online Shop!

Every year we have new viral videos that crop up and the ‘Why I Hate’ viral videos are kicking things off in 2012.

Why I Hate Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, But Love George Lucas || Spoken Word is one our favorites here at ComiGirl. You got to check it out, especially if you are tired of listening to ‘grown ups’ complain about The Phantom Menace.

The video is based on the ‘Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus || Spoken Word’ viral video.

Unicorn Poop

I found this amazingly creative recipe from kristylynn84 at Indestructibles for Unicorn Poop and I could not wait to try the recipe out for myself. Follow the link for the recipe and enjoy the photos from my first batch of Unicorn Poop.

I have to warn you that some of the ingredients for the recipe are not readily available. I could not get my hands on Rainbow Dragees so I went without, I substituted Star Sprinkles with Heart and Daisy sprinkles.
