Two-Face Revealed?

Is this what Two-Face will look like in Nolan's Batman Begins sequel?

Pictures of Aaron Eckhart as Two-Face in The Dark Knight have surfaced on the net. Whether or not the photos are real is up for debate but they look fairly authentic. The character looks deformed yet menacing but also quite different than he does in the comics. Nolan and his team have definitely created a more realistic Two-Face if these two pics are indeed real.



The Dark Knight releases worldwide on July 18th. Check back to MediaZEALOT for updates on the film leading up until its release.



UPDATE: These are confirmed Photoshop fakes. Although, to tell the truth, I'm a fan of how the character looks in these pics. Exaggerate the deformation a little bit more and it'd be perfect. However, Two-Face in the film could look completely different as these are just fan mock-ups. Sorry for the the misinformation guys.

UPDATE 2: Pictures of the Mattel Two-Face toy from The Dark Knight have appeared online. The toy was shown during a restricted press event at Toy Fair over the weekend. Photos of the figure were prohibited and as a result the pictures are extremely blurry as they had to be taken without detection. The toy should be a good indication of what Two-Face will look like in the film. Scroll down for the sharpest (while still super blurry) picture of the toy.



The toy looks great and hopefully Two-Face looks just as good in the film. The left side of his face looks great and very rough. I'm also glad they used purple instead of a more subtle colour for the disfigurement. What do you guys think of the toy and the character's look?

Cheers.

Toy Fair 2008 Marvel Mighty Muggs Pics

Pictures of Hasbro's Marvel Legends Mighty Muggs Wave 2 vinyl figures have hit the net.

As many know, the American International Toy Fair is being held this weekend in New York. The convention showcases new toys and related products and is often where new figures, statues, and designs are unveiled. This year looks like it'll be no exception as I've stumbled across some pics of Hasbro's second wave of Marvel Legends Mighty Muggs.

MediaZEALOT ran an article on the Muggs a few days back (read it HERE) but I was unsure of which figures would be part of the second wave of Marvel figures. I had seen a picture of a The Thing Mighty Mugg and suspected it would inclued in the wave but had no idea who would fill in the other three spots. The pictures, released earlier today, show that Captain America, Dr. Doom, and Hulk will make up the rest of the list.



I think that The Thing figure is the best looking in this wave. Cap may have his shield, Doom his cape, and Hulk may just be a total bad-ass but none of the three hold a candle to Mr. Grimm. To tell the truth I'm a bit disappointed with the second wave. It's not that they aren't great figures, they are, it's just that the bar was set so high with the first wave. Regardless, they are still pretty neat.

I am unsure when the second wave of Marvel Legends Mighty Muggs hit shelves. If the release habits of the Star Wars Muggs are any indication the second wave will come out in April, a month after the first.

What do you guys think of these Muggs? Post a comment and share your opinion.

Cheers.
