LEGO Action Comics #1 Superman Set
SDCC has a ton of exclusives this year and the latest one from LEGO has been revealed. This one is a unique collectible that collectors will go crazy for. The LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Action Comics #1 Superman set, which recreates the Superman issue that started it all.
It will retail for $39.99(USD). Just so you know, you have to win a drawing in order to purchase LEGO’s SDCC sets this year. I guess the idea is that it is more difficult for people to buy up sets to sell them on eBay.
Like the cover it depicts, this one is a first. It will look great with your other nerd toys. Hopefully, LEGO will make more sets based on comic covers down the road.

Batfleck’s Cape and Cowl Shown at Comic-Con
A while back we got our first look at Batman’s costume in a set photo, but now we are getting a closer look at Ben Affleck’s cape and cowl from the upcoming Superman vs. Batman: Dawn of Justice movie.
This is the cape and cowl that Ben Affleck will be wearing in the new movie. If you are going to San Diego this week you can see it for yourself, since it is on display at Comic-Con. I have to say, it looks really damn good. These particular ears, along with those lines above the eyes, give the cowl a very menacing look.
If you are at SDCC make sure you check it out.

LEGO SDCC Exclusive Batman Classic TV Series Batmobile
Holy SDCC exclusive Batman! Is there any better way to celebrate 75 years of Batman, than with this LEGO Super Heroes: DC Comics San Diego Comic-Con Exclusive Batman Classic TV Series Batmobile? I don’t think so.
Behold the awesomeness. If you are attending Comic-Con, you can buy it this week for $39.99(USD). We don’t know if the set will be available outside of the con yet, but we hope so. It looks pretty amazing.
75 years of Batman has led to this… And like a million other cool toys, but I would settle for just having this one on display in my office. It is pretty adorable.

TMNT Pizza Thrower Truck Made Real: Launches Pizzas 30 Feet
Unless you have been hiding in the sewer, having an endless pizza party, you know that a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie is coming out on August 8th. To celebrate, Pizza Hut has commissioned a project that will debut at Comic-Con this week - one that combines your love of Turtles and pizza. A truck-sized version of the Pizza Thrower.
This pizza shooter can shoot pies up to 30 feet away. If you are attending San Diego Comic-Con this week, you can see it up close and personal. It was made by Synn Labs. Aside from shooting pizzas every which way, the vehicle can reach speeds up to 75MPH and weighs two tons.
A pneumatic ram propels the pizza using compressed air. I don’t care how far it shoots a pizza really, just as long as I can catch it.
Keep tabs on the Pizza Shooter by following hashtag #PizzaHutTMNT. Action figures sold separately!
The Dark Knight UCS Tumbler LEGO Kit Debuts at Comic-Con
I have seen all the Batman movies that have hit theaters over the years. Most of them were cheesy, but Christian Bale and Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight series was fantastic. Batman had the coolest Batmobile ever with the Tumbler.
If you are a fan of the Tumbler, check out this official Ultimate Collector Series LEGO version that has been unveiled at San Diego Comic-Con. The massive kit (76023) will build a very detailed replica of the Tumbler, measuring in at 15-inches long and 9-inches wide, with a whopping 1869 pieces.
The LEGO Tumbler kit will cost a cool $199(USD) when it hits stores in September. The kit will come with a spec nameplate and Batman and Joker minifigs. This will be the first time Heath Ledger’s darker Joker has been made into an official LEGO minifig.

Harley Quinn Wallet: Joker, Will You Hold My Purse?
As beautiful as this Harley Quinn wallet is, I don’t think I would ever trust her with my sensitive info. I mean, if you store your credit cards in this thing, she’s gonna be buying “Mister J” all kinds of stuff on Amazon on your dime. You just can’t trust Dr. Harleen Frances Quinzel, M.D.
This wallet from Graphitti Designs perfectly captures the attitude and style of Harley Quinn. It measures 6” x 4” x .5” with a 46” strap. If you want one, it will only be available via sale at SDCC.
All of you Jokers who need a gift for your special lady better get one while you can.
