Women Wednesday: Pirate Catwoman

Here is Shane McDermott's Pirate Catwoman taken from Superhero Cocoa: Catwomen (you can view various costumes for her at the site):

Green Hornet Invades Superhero City

The Green Hornet DVD is being released today and Superhero City at Facebook has been doing a tie-in for the past week. The special mission is the Green Hornet Sting, which allows you to watch a movie trailer.

You can send The Daily Green Hornet Cover story as a free gift:

Sidekick Swoop is the free limited edition ability featuring Kato (I would love to have the actual trading card):

Dr Pepper Thor Bottle

I bought a Dr Pepper bottle with Thor on it last Friday at an out of town convenience store while on a road trip. It pretty much looks like the Dr Pepper Thor can but without the text. I am not keeping the bottle due to storage reasons but I did manage to get the label off without too much damage.

Diet Dr Pepper Sif Can

I bought a case of Diet Dr Pepper yesterday at the local Super Wally-World and it was filled with Sif cans. The blurb reads "Sif, one of the fiercest fighters in all of Asgard! Her proficiency with a sword is unmatched." I like the Sif can much better than the Thor can since she really pops out of the white background.

Thrift Store Find: Spider-Man Shooter T-Shirt

I found a blue XL Spider-Man t-shirt at a local thrift store this morning for three dollars. I call it "shooter" since he is about to shoot his web. The label has Delta Pro Weight and assembled in El Salvador.

Firestorm, Solomon Grundy And Two-Face

Batman: The Brave And The Bold toys are back inside McDonald's Happy Meals but with a difference. Each of the package contains three toys. I managed to get my grubby hands on #2 that contained Firestorm, Solomon Grundy and Two-Face figurines. Grundy is the tallest of trio at 2 1/2" from foot to tip of left hand while the other two are 2 1/4" tall.

I like Firestorm the best because of his red legs, hair and nuclear blast is red plastic that sort of glows when held up to the light.

Solomon Grundy would make a great bodyguard:

Two-Face looks ready to flip his coin:

My camera did not capture the one side of the Happy Meal box that was devoted to Batman: The Brave And The Bold very well. Batman and Plastic Man are featured with the following text: "Follow this action-packed story! 1. On a dark, rainy night in Gotham City... 2. Bam!! There is a sudden, loud noise from The Joker's warehouse... 3. Batman & Friends rush to save the day! Finally, it was the moment of truth... Your turn! Use your Happy Meal toys and your imagination to finish this amazing adventure!"

The test in the bat-circle reads as follows: "Punch out this and use your Happy Meal box as your toys' hideout!"

Two sides of the Happy Meal box is devoted to the Zoobles while one side has a smile. The toys also come with an insert that identifies the figurines plus a mCode to help Batman solve the McWorld mystery.

Women Wednesday: Chocolate Batgirl, Wonder And Xena

Batgirl, Wonder Woman and Xena were just a few of the superheroes that had their costumes made out of chocolate at last year's 11th New York Chocolate Show:

Superman Introduces Easter Bunny

Superman introduces the Easter Bunny to a group of young children that has no clue what the holiday is really about.

Major Chip Hazard 1998

Burger King put out action figures based on the movie, Small Soldiers from DreamWorks in 1998. The only one I have is Major Chip Hazard, which I must have picked up at a local thrift store years ago because there is no local BK.

His vest moves up so he can expose the microchip in his chest.

Back To The Future Time Machine

I found a Back To The Future Time Machine from Hot Wheels along with the Arkham Asylum Batmobile on Tuesday. This too is also part of 2011 vehicles.

The back has the following text:
Born: 1985
Birthplace: Hill Valley, USA
Designer: Dr. Emmett "Doc" Brown
Specialty: Powered by plutonium or a bolt of lighting* and crafted from the DeLorean DMC-12, the stainless-steel body helps allow the flux capacitor to generate the 1.21 gigawatts of electricity required for smooth passage through the space-time continuum.

* Yeah, they misspelled lightning.

I grabbd a better picture of the Back To The Future Time Machine below to show the detail:

Women Wednesday: Elisabeth Sladen

Sarah Jane Smith will always be THE Doctor Who companion for she was my first. Elisabeth Sladen passed away on April 19, 2011 at the age of sixty-three from cancer.

Arkham Asylum Batmobile

I found an Arkham Asylum Batmobile from Hot Wheels at the local grocery store earlier. This is based on the one found in the video game and is part of the 2011 vehicles.

The back of the package has the following text:
Born: 2009
Birthplace: Gotham City, USa
Designer: Bruce Wayne
Specialty: Dark and stealthy with a bubble canopy and long fins, this amazing vehicle is ready to help Batman defeat The Joker and regain control of Gotham City.

Here is a stock photo that I grabbed elsewhere to show what the Arkham Asylum Batmobile looks like out of the package:
