FINE MOLDS MILLENIUM FALCON MODEL KIT: This amazing kit has just arrived from Japan and is in stock for $224.99. The kit features unmatched details based directly on movie props and schematics. This kit contains over 900 pieces and is around 12 inches across and its is sure to keep you busy for many, many hours.

TRANSFORMERS ALTERNATORS: The long awaited new wave of Alternators has just arrived. The new 'fishbowl' packaging held up well during shipping so our entire shipment is in great shape and the three sided window really displays the vehicle mode nicely. In stock now for $24.99 are the Scion bB Skids, Viper Coupe Sunstreaker, and Police Acura Prowl. The blue Tracks Corvette is in stock for $19.99 - this was a tough figure to find previously so $19.99 is a great price. We also offer a case price of $90.99 for one of each of all 4 figures - this way you can continue your collection with one each of the freshly packaged items.

WETA NARNIA & KONG STATUES & BUSTS: The first wave of new Narnia statues have just arrived and they turned out great! In stock now are the White Witch Statue, Oreius Statue, and the Lion and Witch Bookends Set. These are all priced below the MSRP and they are all limited to 3000 to 3500 pieces. As more Narnia movies come out in the future these will likely be hard to find and go up in value, so should be decent investment pieces!

The Kong Skull has also just arrived and we have a variety of other Weta Kong Statues and Busts in stock here.

TRANSFORMERS CYBERTRON: The latest waves of Scout and Deluxe class figures have just arrived. New Deluxe figures are priced nicely at $11.99 and include: Brimstone the Pterodactyl, Crosswise - who looks quite similar to the $1.25M Bugatti Supercar, and Thunderblast, a female decepticon originally released as Chromia in the Galaxy Force line. New scout figures include Swerve and Swindle - a pair of new repaints, and also Armorhide, Backstop, Wreckloose, Brushguard, and the Street Speed Mini-con team.
