The predator has never looked so fearsome as it does in this Predator Jungle Hunter Maquette by Sideshow Collectibles. Arnold was right, he is one ugly mother. This is an amazing portrayal of this iconic character, that stands an imposing 27.5” and he is wearing his traditional armor which is a combination of polyresin and fabric elements. He comes with an alternate left hand which holds a skull and spinal cord trophy.Nice!
Sideshow Collectibles has outdone themselves with this impressive Han Solo in Carbonite Life-Size Figure. It stands seven-and-a-half feet tall and captures every detail of the frozen smuggler. So it is perfect for any crime lord’s palace wall. It features film-accurate light effects in the base, side panels, and rear power canisters for added authenticity. Jabba’s most sought-after trophy can now be yours.

If you are a fan of the DC Collectibles Gotham City Garage line by artist Dustin Nguyen, you are going to love Tonner’s Gotham City Garage Catwoman and Harley Quinn dolls. They look pretty amazing and stand 16-inches tall. Check out all of those cool details. I think these might be cooler than the Gotham Garage statues.
You can pre-order them right now and they will ship in July.

At last you can own your very own monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. And you don’t even need astronauts to dig it up on the moon. It is the perfect nerd desk toy. Especially if you happen to have a few small monkeys to place in front of it. It’s pretty expensive at $700. but hey, it’s not everyday that humanity discovers one of these.
Holograms are the preferred method of communication in the Star Wars universe. At least as far as Sith are concerned. However, here on Earth, we are still blown away by such technology. Especially when the hologram is part of an awesome collectible. Walt Disney Records will be releasing a new hologram vinyl version of the soundtrack for Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
This two LP set features liner notes by J.J. Abrams and a 16-page booklet on 180 gram vinyl. This best part is that it offers a 3D hologram featuring the Millennium Falcon on Disc 1/Side B and a TIE Fighter on Disc 2/Side B.

The coolest is probably the Starfleet-delta shaped coin with the face value of $200, but since it is minted in solid gold, it will cost you a lot more. You can check out our friends over at The Trek Collective for more info on all of these.
