Toy Fair ’10: It’s a ‘Bioshock 2’ Bonanza!
Having just completed “Bioshock 2” I seriously cannot wait to get my hands on all of this! For those of you who missed out on getting Big Daddy Bouncer, he will be making a return to retail later in March, reports Figures.com. Following the release of Wave 1 (Subject Delta, Big Sister and Little Sister), as well as their EVE Hypo replica (holy crap do I want that now!) and Big Daddy Plush, NECA will release in April a second action figure wave which will consist of the following….
* Deluxe Big Daddy Bouncer Rosie
* Splicer
* Little Sister 2-pack (To include Eleanor Lamb and the Little Sister from Wave 1).
* Big Daddy Elite (Pictured above. This will be a retailer exclusive, retailer to be announced).
NECA is looking into the possibility of producing an ADAM Syringe and a Subject Delta Plush. There will also be BioShock San Diego Comic-Con exclusive, though it was not revealed at Toy Fair.

Brendan Fraser is back for the upcoming fourth installment in The Mummy franchise from directors Radio Silence, and Michael Johnston (Obsession) is now in talks to join him.
The Hollywood Reporter lets us know tonight that Michael Johnston is in “early talks” to join The Mummy 4, which will release in theaters on October 15, 2027 via Universal.
Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, and John Hannah will reprise their iconic roles as Rick O’Connell, Evelyn O’Connell, and Jonathan Carnahan in the upcoming movie.
Radio Silence duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin & Tyler Gillett (Ready or Not, Scream 5-6) are directing from a script by David Coggeshall (Orphan: First Kill).
Plot details are being kept under wraps at this time, but the brand new sequel is expected to disregard the events of the third movie, in which Rachel Weisz did not appear.
“It’s just really beautiful and scary and sweeping, and it’s awesome,” Gillet teases. Bettinelli-Olpin adds that the film “has all of the heart and the character that you could hope for.”
A remake of the classic Universal monster movie that took an action-adventure approach, The Mummy was released in 1999 and grossed $417 million worldwide. It was followed by The Mummy Returns in 2001 and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor in 2008.
