The Umbrella Academy Book and Figure Set

4″ tall figure in 2-sided window box with 152-page hardcover book $24.99

For the Book and Figure Set, we have chosen Vanya, AKA The White Violin. She’s a standout character in the series, defying her family and showing a vindictive, violent streak.

A 5″ x 7.5″ hardcover of the trade paperback has been created for this set, featuring original Gabriel Ba cover art.

This action figure and book set is absolutely beautiful. There is nothing else to say. Really? Well, if you want to say something. Please leave a comment below or click here to order.

The Umbrella Academy Toys

Available on April 15, 2009

Packaging

This set of six Umbrella Academy figures evokes the characters exactly as they appear in the comic. The likeness is uncanny, with bold shadowing and strange angles, right down to the fur on Space Boy’s oversized arms. We think you will be charmed by this set and love not only the figures, but the unique packaging they are placed in: An umbrella-topped dome looms over the siblings, in all their monochromatic glory.

Wow! This is so awesome. We have been waiting a long time for these! Well now after many rumors and many teasers, we have real images of what these great Umbrella Academy toys will look like. Also, I think that the package is very creative. I don’t really think it was necessary at all to package these great toys in this umbrella-dome but its different.

This 6-figure set wont be available for another five months but this gives us time to save up for it. The action figures are from 2″ to 5″ inches (pretty small). It looks like the price will be something like $39.99. Which means that if you about 26 cents a day, you’ll be able to own one of these great toy sets. Be sure to check back soon for pre-ordering information click here order. You’ll want to order this toy set, it will probably sell out fast!

An exciting and teasing flash animation of the first few pages of The Umbrella Academy, Series Two, Dallas #1. With fun orchestra music, perhaps by the evil evil EVIL The Conductor of The Orchestra Verdammten, it really brings the comic to life. We’re all very excited for 11.26.2008..
