Unless you've been living under a rock that gets terrible wireless reception, you know that the New York Comic Con took place last weekend. While comic books, films and TV shows might have dominated the news reports, there were also a number of toy, statue and other collectible-related news from companies like Mattel, Hasbro, DC Collectibles, Mezco and more. With this TOYING AROUND column in mind, CBR News took to the convention floor and snapped as many photos as we could. Of course, there was also a lot of other news being released thanks to solicits and the usual web reveals.

For a full report on everything DC Collectibles showed off at their panel on Friday, keep your eyes on CBR for the full report!

BATMAN | One figure that DC Collectibles only teased during their NYCC panel finally saw its debut on their Facebook page a few days later. All we knew was that the figure was part of the Greg Capullo Batman line, it had a purple and green color scheme and wasn't the Joker. So who else could it be but the master of mysteries, The Riddler?!

MATTEL DC NYCC | As the major DC Comics license holder when it comes to toys, Mattel had a small universe of toys to show off at this year's biggest east coast con.
