More robots of Real Steel revealed in toy line

real steelIn Real Steel, Hugh Jackman plays a boxer who missed his chance at the title when robots replaced humans in the ring. Instead of wasting away his talents as a promoter, he decides to team up with his son to train a robot they pulled out of the junk heap into a boxing champion.

We got our first look at some of the aforementioned robot fighters in the two trailers that dropped, and then Comic-Con attendees got up-close and personal with the brawler ‘bots last month in San Diego. Now we have yet another look at the robots of Real Steel, courtesy of imagery from the upcoming toy line.

Posted at Entertainment Earth, the images from the Real Steel toy line feature seven of the film’s robot boxers in varying forms, including several versions of the robot Jackman’s character and his son (played by Dakota Goyo) train in the film, Atom.

Also included in the line is the blue “Noisey Boy” robot seen in the trailer, as well as the two-headed “Twin Cities” robot, the massive “Zeus,” and toys for the gold-plated “Midas” and the Stetson-wearing “Six-Shooter,” among other ‘bots.

The toy line will be released in waves, with the first set available this month and subsequent sets released throughout the rest of August and into September. Along with the basic line of figures, there will a Deluxe set and various boxing-ring style playsets.

Real Steel hits theaters October 7. You can check out the two sets of basic figures below, and head over to Entertainment Earth for more images.

3 underrated (HBO) Max movies you should watch this weekend (June 28-30)
A girl looks at a boy in House at the End of the Street.

June is surprisingly over, and with it, a great month for movies comes to a satisfactory close. You've probably watched Inside Out 2 or Bad Boys: Ride or Die or maybe even The Bikeriders. From blockbusters to indie fare, the theatrical movie business has been robust and healthy.

The same goes for streaming. Netflix had a big hit with Richard Linklater's Hit Man, while Amazon Prime Video recently premiered the latest bonkers season of The Boys. HBO and Max have been quieter, but their robust library speaks volumes to the streamer's high quality. The following three films are older, but are just as worth your time as new hits like House of the Dragon season 2.
The Skin I Live In (2011)

As we head toward the end of June, it's worth reflecting on how we want to spend the rest of summer. For some, that's going to mean enjoying nice weather or getting some time in at the beach. For others, it might mean escaping from the heat, at least for a while, to check out a great movie.

Prime Video is home to some of the best movies available online, but it can be hard to find the ones you want. These three will at least give you a great place to start.

The best Netflix original series right now
Eric and Benedict Cumberbatch in Eric.

The era of Peak TV was also Peak Netflix, because the streamer seemingly had an endless supply of new original series. So far in 2024, that hasn't been the case. Whether we'll ever get the same level of content again seems unlikely for now. But even in a reduced capacity, Netflix still has a few new additions to its lineup of originals.

For the month of June, we're adding the '80s-set thriller, Eric, which stars Benedict Cumbebatch. Our other pick for the month is Supacell, which is Netflix's new British series that remixes some old superhero archetypes. That's not a very big selection for fans who always want something new, but this roundup of the best Netflix original series really does have all of the top options in one place for you. All you have to do is scroll down and make time to binge watch some shows.
