At time it ’s difficult to distinguish Hot Toys ’ sixth - exfoliation , 12 - column inch figures from the real character reference they ’re based on . The toymaker employs some of the most talented Sculptor in the business , which is incredibly ostensible in the means they ’ve cope to perfectly capture Han Solo / Harrison Ford ’s smirk .

Play Arts Kai Magneto
One of the biggest complaints we ’ve had about the Marvel caper Arts Kai serial is that Square - Enix ’s designersnever really push each character interpretationas wildly as they did for some of their DC Comics toy . While its latest effort still does n’t top something likeBahamut - Batman , Square - Enix ’s fresh 10 - in Magneto figure feature one of the coolest ideas we ’ve ever seen for a Magneto character design : his cloak is made out of metallic shard , contorted and command by the master copy of magnetism ’s mutant ability ( deplorably the mantle itself does n’t come out to be poseable ) . The rest of the figure is clean standard , but the ness is a really cool choice . Magento and his myriad accessory will set you back about $ 145 when he discharge in Japan in August . [ Toyark ]

These bright - color in charge plate block , featuring six tiny magnets within , can be assemble into custom 3D pixel art creations that do n’t involve gum or heating to remain together . They ’re also harder for trivial tiddler to immerse ( you ’ll still require to keep them out of grasp ) but are currently only available through a Kickstarter campaign . A donation of $ 19 gets you 50 tiny cubes to originate with , but as with any crowdfunded product , it ’s emptor beware . [ Kickstarter – Pixio ]
Nintendo Game Boy Notebook
This is n’t the first notebook project to front like the original Nintendo Game Boy , nor will it credibly be the last . But the reason you ’ll require to jot down notes and cheat codes in this six - in tall $ 8 notebook is because itssimulated screen apply an reanimate hologramthat hearten a layer from Super Mario Land . It ’s a mere second of legal action , but it ’s more than enough to get our quotation calling card at the ready . [ ThinkGeek ]

In addition to a fuel cell that keeps them powered for tenner , apparently terminator still need a footling pick - me - up in the good morning before hunting down and pass over out human race . But before this Terminator could finish its coffee bean , it was destroyed , probably by one of John Connor ’s greyback , leaving only its endoskeleton hand wrap aroundthis $ 23 ceramic mug .
