I really, really like that Wonder Woman, a really beautiful sculpt. Only fairly minor quibbles -- I don't care for the WW belt, and I've never been keen on WW brandishing a sword or shield but it's increasingly unavoidable. I gave up wishing she would be back in heels!

Liking the Wonder Woman Statue ALOT!(Too bad it's so freaking small. Would love to have a full size version of this one.)

Yellowjacket looks great! I'll have to wait and see about the Human Torch also. I like the Iron Man sculpt, but as others have said, I'd like a more dynamic pose.
That Wonder Woman is one of the best I've seen of her. IMHO.

Hobbylink Japan is having a 50% off inventory clearance sale of its Aoshima die-cast vehicles, including the Zero-X from the first Thunderbirds movie (and the Captain Scarlet version as well): http://www.hlj.com/product/AOS09086 Damn. Got no more room for it on my shelves, nor my closet, and already got things in the pre-order pipeline from them.

Another item offered by HLJ during their inventory clearance sale is Aoshima's Limited Edition die-cast Kaitei Gunkan or Atragon submarine from the Toho movie of the same name (weathered paint job version): http://www.hlj.com/product/AOS09158 I've got this one a year ago and the hull is die-cast, making it a very solid and heavy display piece. Very much worth the price HLJ is currently selling it at (Auto-EMS shipping will be a bit pricey due to the weight, but at least we're talking 4-5 days delivery as opposed to 20+ with SAL).

CNN takes a look at a SDCC exclusives collector: http://www.cnn.com/2010/LIVING/07/20/comiccon.collectible.ir pt/index.html?hpt=C2 I still remember my first encounter with exclusive hunters at SDCC 2003, when I expressed disbelief at the people lining up for a silver-painted Boba Fett action figure...

Joker continues his transformation into the movie version. sigh
*****
Fortunately, that statue is based on Lee Bermejo's art from a stand-alone Joker GN, not the appearance of the "real" Joker in the DCU.

These things are like crack cocaine to me! (at least I think so, never having tried crack cocaine).
