I suppose if Minimate Alfred is too busy mending Batman’s wounds, and needs to whip up a specialty cake for the Dark Knight’s birthday he could get Ace of Cakes founder Chef Duff Goldman to help out…if only there were a Minimate for that… Exclusively available through Charm City Cakes, this limited Minimate includes a wide array of cake-making accessories including two of the shop’s signature cakes, a drill-powered mixer, a chainsaw, wooden spoon, spatula, guitar and flame-thrower! Also included is an alternate baseball cap to recreate another Duff Goldman look! Bwa? Okay… via Diamond Select Toys

Diamond Select Toys has unveild a new line of quarter scale figures at this year’s San Diego Comic Con. The figures will hit store shelves at the end of the year, with Darth Maul being the first figure. All figures are fully articulated, include a sound chip, and will sell for $80. Take the jump for some sweet images.
One of the best things about going to San Diego Comic-Con is the opportunity to get your hands on the exclusive toys and action figures, and even get them signed by creators, artists, or actors. Diamond Select Toys (booth #2607) has passed along its list of events and exlusives going on at the show. Sigh… I guess I’m going to have to spend some time on eBay in the weeks following the convention.

Diamond Select Toys has announced the online retailer Big Bad Toy Store will be the exclusive distributor of the Marvel Select Red Hulk. While the sculpt is similar to the green golliath, the head change and paint job set this figure off from the rest. Fresh from his debut in Hulk #1, this mysterious mayhem-making menace has just begun his assault on the Gamma-powered individuals of the Marvel Universe and he’s shown no signs of slowing! As with the upcoming Marvel Select Hulk figure, the Red Hulk stands approximately ten inches tall and features multiple points of articulation as well…
Now here is a San Diego Comic Con figure exclusive I’m actually excited about. With all the hoopla surrounding the return of the Skrulls – or rather the revealing of the Skrulls that have been around for a long time – Diamond Select Toys has unveiled the Elektra Skrull action figure. In addition to getting Matt Murdock’s girlfriend all glammed up in green paint and funky chin (sorry no Jennifer Garner likeness), the seven-inch figure will also include a variety of martial arts weapons, and interchangeable arms and legs. Best of all the figure is packed with her very own…
The Invaders are set to make an appearance at the San Diego Comic Con in a big way. Or rather, a small way, in the form of an exclusive set of Minimates. Featuring the four most famous members of the all-star Invaders team, this set includes Steve Rogers as Captain America, James Buchanan Barnes as Bucky, Prince Namor as the Sub-Mariner and Jim Hammond as the original Human Torch! These legendary heroes were instrumental in the defeat of the Axis powers in WWII and will appear throughout 2008 in the aptly-titled Avengers/Invaders limited series. I like that there are multiple…

I’m growing more and more restless as we crawl ever closer to the weekend and the New York Comic Con. I’m also growing more and more jealous of those who are going to the New York Comic Con. One of the things I like most about these shows is getting to see the prototypes and exclusive toys coming from the various manufacturers. Diamond Select Toys has sent Major Spoilers the rundown for the panels the company will appear on, as well as some of the exclusives at the show.
