These items have all been listed on the new DC Direct Menu - which has a fairly comprehensive selection of recent DC releases.

A few new Xevoz have arrived including the 2-Pack of Moon Stalker & Hemo Goblin. Two new basic figures include Dune Stinger and Shock Berserker.

BLUE BOX: The very detailed and accessory rich George W. Bush Aviator figure has arrived. Priced at $36.99 this figure captures his likeness very well and comes in a nice display box with removeable plastic tray - Blue Box told us not to anticipate long term stock on this item so we bought a lot of them and do not expect them to last long.
