Equipment: Captain Action at the 2013 Toy Fair

Captain Action is not just a man of many talents he is a man of maIMG_4324ny identities. When he was released in the late 1960’s he could be anyone from Aquaman to Flash Gordon and that is what made him so great. Well, Captain Action has made a return and he is cooler than ever!

 
This week at Toy Fair we had a chance to see just what is in store for Captain Action in 2013 and it is very safe to say that there are good things coming your way, some very good things. Following on the heels of popular Captain America and Spider-man costumes there are two new hero costumes coming, Iron Man and Wolverine. Iron Man will come with plastic armor pieces for the chest area, lower arms and boots that will enhance the cloth part of the costume. There are 3 helmet looks for Iron Man as well. You will be able to have the full helmet look, a variant face plate and a helmet with an exposed Tony Stark face.

 
Captain Action’s Wolverine costume is the iconic yellow and blue from the comics. Wolverine also comes with 2 different masks, the first on is the full face mask and the other is Logan’s face .The sculpt on Logan’s face is amazing; it looks like he jumped straight out of the comics! This Wolverine costume marks the first time that Captain Action has a disguise as one of the X-Men.

 
Another uniform that is coming out this year is a classic Batman costume! Batman is the first of the DC heroes to be produced for Action Man since the 1960’s. The costume is the classic 1970’s Batman and it is a must for fans of all ages. Included in with the costume comes the first two pieces for another member of the Justice League, Aquaman.

 
We also learned something very exciting while at Toy Fair. If you haven’t picked up your very own Captain Action here is your chance to get a special deal from Toys R Us. Starting February 10 (last Sunday) and running for about 2 weeks all the Captain Action figures are half price. This is a perfect opportunity to build your army. You will need more than 1 Captain Action to build your Avenger’s team. This unadvertised sale is not going to last forever so get out pick up either a basic Captain Action or Dr. Evil toy.IMG_4316 IMG_4319
