The AFR News Desk Keeping You in the Loop Seven New 52 Super Heroes vs. Super Villains for Less Than$100! This super value pack comes from DC Comics and features a mix of Super-Heroes and Villains ready to do battle! Standing 7-inches-tall and based on DC’s New 52 styles, each character is paired with their arch-nemeis, so Batman can go head-to-head with the Joker, the Flash can run circles around Captain Cold, and Aquaman creates waves with Black Manta. Catwoman is also part of the mix because sometimes she fights the good guys and sometimes she fights the bad guys.

On a Disney site?), we’ve gotten our first look at some of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens action figures kids, and no doubt many adults, will be clamoring for at Christmas next year. We’ve already had a look at a few of the main characters, thanks to the teaser trailer, including Finn (John Boyega), Kylo Ren (???), Rey (Daisy Ridley), and the popular ball droid BB-8. In this leak, we get to see all those, plus one other character we know is making a reappearance, our favorite Wookie, Chewbacca. I’m guessing that the figure on the left is Kylo Ren (the one with the red light-saber in the trailer). It could be the character played by Gwendoline Christie (Game of Thrones). It’s also nice to see that Finn won’t be stuck in that Stormtrooper outfit for the whole film. Source: http://thedisneyblog.com
