For many poor souls, Wednesday is the worst day of the week — right in the middle of a dreary five days of work. If only they were comic book fans — then Wednesdays would be the\"\"<\/a> high point of the week! After all, it’s the day comic book junkies can hit up their local comic shop and be guaranteed a ton of new comics and toys! Speaking of toys, Diamond Select Toys has two new products shipping to comic shop and specialty stores this week, and they’re both pretty awesome.<\/p>\n

First up is DST’s first four-pack of Minimates based on the action-movie extravaganzaThe Expendables! With tiny, two-inch versions of Lee Christmas, Hale Caesar, Mr. Church and Tool, this set is your first step towards building the Expendables team!<\/p>\n

The other product is the latest massive, movie-based Marvel Select figure from DST! There’s a whole month to go until the release of The Amazing Spider-Man<\/em>, but you can get your hands on the villainous Lizard, scaly alter ego of Dr. Curt Connors, right now! Standing nearly 9 inches tall, Lizard will tower over your Amazing Spider-Man figure — which should hit stores in a few short weeks!<\/p>\n
