It’s that time again… The bearded bloke in red is about to pop down our chimneys with his Christmas cheer. What have you asked for this year? I have yet to put my order in, which is probably a good thing, since I’ve just clapped eyes on a whole lotta lovely things that I can’t wait to tell you about…

Let’s start with statuettes, shall we?

Got a Trekkie in your life? Hollywood Collectibles have issued a ltd edit. (600) series of painted polystone Kirks:

Ahead! Warp Factor 1!

You can pre-order Thor & Loki action figures from The Big Bad Toy Store now (US$18.99 each)…well in advance of the release of next year’s hotly anticipated blockbuster.

Size Matters

Got a spare US$175 lying around and want something truly striking on your shelf? Check the incredible Punisher Classic statue by Bowen Designs. Scheduled for February shipment, this digitally-sculpted beauty stands over 12 inches and would look *very* nice on my your desk, don’tcha think?

Who doesn’t want this ceramic Darth Vader cookie jar? WHO???

Take a cookie@ your peril. He's handy with a sabre...

Fellow Jack of Fables fans will be sad to hear that the final instalment of the series (issue #50) is available in February.

Don't sit in the corner.... Pre-order NOW!

Amanda Palmer (Dresden Dolls/Evelyn Evelyn vocalist and Neil Gaiman’s main squeeze) has a lavish new book set for your reading pleasure. Intro’d by Neil G, these 2 hardbound volumes are said to be the ‘wholly true and accurate account of the tragic events surrounding the extraordinary lives of Evelyn Evelyn, a darling but unfortunate pair of conjoined twins’. See what you think.

Prepare to slay some jello shots

“Jennifer Blood is a suburban wife and mom by day, and a ruthless vigilante by night! Every day she makes breakfast, takes the kids to school, cleans the house, naps for an hour or two, makes dinner, puts the kids to bed, and kisses her husband goodnight”. For serious. With an intro like that, who can resist checking out the new series from Garth Ennis, the writer of The Boys, Punisher, and Preacher? Jennifer Blood #1 launches in Feb, through Dynamite Entertainment:

In other news, Marvel’s brilliant new ‘Point One’ project kicks off in February ’11. Great news for comic noobs, this series offers a budget entry point for getting up to speed on the sagas of such Marvel faves as Spider-Man, Iron Man, and Wolverine. Each issue will feature unique numbering and give readers a self-contained story from Marvel’s top creators that will intro the characters and their lives. The Point One books are then followed by a regular issue of that month’s series, continuing with the stories and characters intro’d in the Point One special. The project commences in Feb with this trilogy: Amazing Spider-Man #654.1, Invincible Iron Man #500.1, and Wolverine #5.1. Point One continues in March with Captain America #615.1, Deadpool #32.1, Hulk #30.1, Thor #620.1, and Uncanny X-Force #5.1. April presents readers with Avengers #12.1, Secret Avengers #11.1, and Uncanny X-Men #534.1.
