Steamy new Batgirl joins Ame-Comi line

DC Collectibles has unveiled a new Ame-Comi Steampunk Batgirl. This radically different design features mask-shaped goggles, some very cool gauntlets, and... batwings. I applaud DCC for its creativity here, as the design cert...

SDCC 2012: DC Collectibles - Assorted DC statues

DC Collectibles had a wide array of statues at their booth that consisted mostly of items coming out later this year. While much of the selection looks like previously revealed items (with many already up for pre-order), I ca...

C2E2 2012: DC Collectibles Ame-Comi

Wait, don't click your back button! I know, it's DC's much-maligned Ame-Comi line but these are better than you'd expect. These designs are out there but somewhat truer to the characters than Ame-Comi figures of old. The buil...

Ame-Comi's Wonder Woman as Star Sapphire is ... well ... very pink and yellow

So, we don't really care for Ame-Comi that much. There have been a few winners in the line, but overall we have felt as if there were more misses than wins. There's already been a figure of Star Sapphire, and it was ugly. Now...

New Cheetah, Zatanna Ame-Comi colorways on the way

If you saw our ToyFair DC booth coverage, then you might have seen these two hiding in the gallery. But here's a bit more info on the Stealth Cheetan and Halloween Zatana: both are 9" tall, will cost US$60 and are coming out ...

DC Direct's Ame-Comi, now available to wear

Last time we took a look at DC Direct's Ame-Comi line, it stirred-up quite the little debate. Throughout the line's history, the comments have ranged from interesting concept to a poor excuse for a slutty Halloween costume. S...

DC Direct unveils its Ame-Comi Heroine Mini Series 3 lineup

DC Direct have revealed the line-up for the upcoming Ame-Comi Heroine Mini Series 3, and while the characters might be iconic, the figures themselves are ... forgettable. It's Hawkgirl, Power Girl and Supergirl with Streaky p...

DC Direct's Ame-Comi line not quite dead, releasing two new figures

DC Direct's Ame-Comi line has been rather quiet ever since Kotobukiya launched their DC Bishoujo line. But as it turns out, it's not dead or reduced to just new colorways. There are two new figures coming out: a third Wonder ...

DC Direct's AmeComi line continues to remind me of 'How to Draw Anime' books

After seeing the latest offerings from DC Direct's AmeComi line, I'm completely baffled as to why this line still even exists. Featuring Batgirl and Catwoman (if you could even call them that) they moreso look like a girl wit...

Ame-Comi line adds Mera and Raven figures

It's no secret that some of the Tomopop staff are no big fans of the Ame-Comi line. I likely would not buy the figures anyway since they don't really fall into my line of interests, but I have to admit these last tw...
