Countdown to Justice League: 9 Collectibles to Look Out For
NINE days to go before Justice League hits the big screen! And its hard to repress yourself from buying the Justice League action figures/collectibles from different toy lines. There are many figures/collectibles to choose from but here are the top 9 figures/collectibles we thing will make your collection a sight to behold.
9. Justice League Funko Pops
Yup, that's right! You cant have a collectibles top list without Funko Pops. Funko has revolutionized toy collecting ever since they've entered into the market. Their trademark chibi-fied characters have made collecting irresistible even to non-collectors. Through the years, Funko has expanded to themed-box. And luckily, this November, Legion of Collectors is releasing a Justice League themed fan box. If you want to know the contents of the box, here's a link to the preview of the items included. You can locally order this Justice League themed-box from Kiko Toys in Green Hills Shoppesville Plus. If that themed box is too much, you can also get the regular Justice League Funko Pops which are equally as cute as the Funkos included in the Jusitice League Legion of Collectors box. Prices may vary but you can get your Funko Pops from Big Boys Toy Store, Kramer Toy Warden, Hobbiestock, and Bully Boy.
8. DC Comics drones from Propel Ph
Propel Ph is a new company in the local market. They provide mini-drones and DC Comics themed drones. Recently, they've launched their Batman Batwing drone. Moreover, a Batman and a Superman helicopter/drone is also available for public purchase. Propel Ph will be attending the COMICS CLUB PHILIPPINES JUSTICE LEAGUE MIDNIGHT SCREENING on November 16 (midnight) and at THE REIGN OF SUPERMEN JUSTICE LEAGUE FAN SCREENING EVENT on November 18. You can catch them there to know more about the company and their passion to take DC fans to newer heights.
7. Mafex Justice League
When it comes to action figures, Mafex has one of the best articulated action figures in the market. Details are also great that it resembles the real thing. The only downside with these figures is that the earliest we can get them is early January 2018. Although, Mafex will make the wait worthwhile with its interchangeable expression accessory. The Flash comes with an alternative head without his mask, which is pretty cool. Batman and Superman costs $62 while Flash is a little bit more expensive in the amount of $71.
6. Figuarts Justice League
A better alternative to Mafex is Figuarts Justice League action figures. These 6-inch figures are highly articulated and comes with tons of accessories. Batman's cape comes with wires enabling you to pose it in any way you want to. Figuarts retails at $59.
5. Kotobukiya ArtFX+ Justice League
Kotobukiya ArtFX+ has one of the best detailed and most affordable statues available in the market. You can pre-order their Justice League line for $79.99 each and will become available come December 2017. Each statue stands at 1/10 scale with magnetized based for increased stability. Kotobukiya is known for their craftsmanship, hence, despite its size, each statue is sculpted with precise details. These statues are better displayed #UNITED.
4. Justice League Lego line
Lego has been dubbed as the best investment for value, beating gold and stock market shares. While we're not expecting the Justice League line to appreciate in value, these Lego sets are great collection piece. Building these Lego sets will make you feel like a kid again, temporarily making you forget about your adult responsibilities and obligations. Well, after working so hard, you deserve that break. So what are you waiting for, get your Justice League Lego sets! We're recommending the Flying Fox set and the Nightcrawler set. These sets come with cool and unique minigures that collectors might want to buy from you.
3. DC Collectibles Justice League 1/6 scale statues
If Kotobukiya is not your thing, DC Collectibles 1/6 scale statues might interest you. These statues are sculpted with the finest artists in the world. Not only are they bigger, but they provide a more dynamic pose compared to their Kotobukiya counterparts. These statues are already available in your favorite Local Comicbook Stores such as Comic Odyssey, DK Collectibles, Filbar's, and Planet X. While there are some sellers/kiosks that offer these statues for a lower price, we suggest you get them from comicbook stores. DC Collectibles are not known for their packaging, some statues may break during transit/shipment. The only advantage of ordering from LCS (diamond accredited stores) is, in case of breakage due to shipment, Diamond will provide a replacement without any need of additional payment.
2. RC Batmobile by Mattel
Experience a true-to-movie battle action with the Ultimate Justice League Batmobile. The RC comes with a built-in camera for POV experience with your smartphone. It comes with a 6-inch Batman action figure. It is the ultimate interactive toy to look out for for this year. With a whopping price of $249.99, you get a batmobile with a roaring enging and it releases smoke in the talepipe.
1. Justice League Hot Toys
Hot Toys are still at the top of the "toy" chain. Their great attention to details is superb as their toys look exactly like the actors/actresses that played their roles. The articulation on these toys are top notched. Collectors have been anticipating this line ever since it was announced earlier this year. The details on the characters' suits is nothing less than spectacular. You really get your money's worth with Hot Toys. The Batman Tactical Suit and Cyborg will be a sure hit. Aquaman and The Flash also looks great.

1. Superman black suit from Mattel (series 2)
So it seems like we're getting a black suit Superman. Hopefully we get another series from Mattel where Green Lantern is included.
Justice League comes to theaters on November 16, 2017. Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman's selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes-Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash-it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
Paolo Ollero, 28, working law student, a comicbook enthusiast and a Batman historian, is one of the co-founder of The Dark Knight Philippines -- the premier Batman group in the country. He also contributes reviews and write-ups in Geekend Gladiator and Flipgeeks.
