Those masters of mass-produced metal toys are at it again. I guess Corgi’s line of Batman vehicles performed to their satisfaction, because they’ve announced a new line of super-hero related metal toys. This time the license is with Marvel, and the product will be metal figurines, about 6 inches tall. I’m not normally impressed with metal figures, because the paint jobs tend to look a bit sloppy to my eyes. I do love a company that talks trash in their press releases, though, so I’m kinda hoping they pull it off.

Unlike the resin-only figures of these characters currently on the market, Corgi’s 1/12th scale (approx. 6 in.) metal figures will be designed to stand the test of time. Produced in very limited quantities, these highly detailed metal miniatures will encourage consumers to collect the complete line.
