  Here are some new pictures of the new Shadowhawk and Scud figures being produced by Shocker Toys for their Indie Spotlight line- coming right after the Toy Fair this year! Each figure in the line sports 20+ articulation, and new unpainted proto shots will be revealed in the weeks leading to the Toy Fair in February. The Indie Spotlight line will be the newest addition to Shocker's wide variety of toys, such as Shockinis, Metalocalypse, and the upcoming Gwar action figures. Indie Spotlight Wave 1 features 6" figures of Scud, Shadowhawk, Katchoo, Kabuki, all retailing for an estimated $13.95, and an 8" The Maxx, which is a build-a-figure that is sold separately for a mere $1 or $2 more than retail. For more information on Shocker Toys, as well as pictures of the Indie Spotlight line as they continue to be revealed, please visit www.shockertoys.com for ordering information, as well as general questions. Also, add them on myspace at www.myspace.com/shockertoys for more updates and information! -John, Shocker Toys Update:1/28/08-THE MAXX  The Maxx's feet will be larger, this is only a prototype image. He will also come with a soft PVC headdress, as well as a few iszs!

Holy crap, the Maxx looks great! I really hope these actually see the light of day. They were supposed to be out in 2006!

This has been dissected at length on other forums, but the Maxx really only bares a passing resemblance to the character. Whoever sculpted him apparently did so from memory and had bad memory.

Maxx is good, but not great... Kabuki is really awesome...
In a world without LCBH... I hope these do well.

I didn't notice this last time... But there's a Dicky Tracy mini!
If they make full size figures from that book... I'm on it.

Dick Tracy is in series 2, along with Zombie King (Deadworld), Jack the lantern, Ignacia (Wildguard) and The Tick BAF (same as The Maxx, will be sold as a single 8" buildable figure). |

Update-2/26/08:
These will be on sale in June/July 08. Currently we are speaking with Diamond distributors (which basically equals all comic shops) and Toys R Us as being the suppliers of the line.
These figures will be available on the official shocker site, the afforementioned stores once things are finalized, as well as at the San Diego Comic Con (along with an exclusive that is still undisclosed at the moment).

Nice figures. I hope these will fill the void left by the untimely demise of Legendary Heroes.
