See that green skinned alien beauty to the left? Well that is the deadly assassin Gamorra from Guardians of the Galaxy. Gamora is played by Zoe Saldana who has a history of playing strong women in science fiction movies. She was Uhura in the new Star Trek movies and Neytiri in Avatar. Her background in dance also helps with all her physical and graceful moves int eh fight scenes.
Next Saturday I will get to meet and interview Zoe Saldana. I am very excited to see Guardians of the Galaxy and see more of Zoe in action. The short clip I saw this past Monday only gave a small taste of the incredible action that is coming. You can see more of Zoe as Gamora in this video below.
At San Diego Comic-Con this year, Hasbro has two crazy-incredible Transformers sets that will be SDCC Exclusives. There will be a Dinobots set using the molds from the current movie but the colors from the G1 characters. There will also be one of the most unique and interesting sets ever called the Knights of Unicron that depicts Optimus Prime as the lead singer of an 80’s hair band that also includes Megatron, Soundwave and Jazz. The band is on the “Till All Are One” Tour. There is even a tour booklet and a the set comes in a Roadie case with stickers and tour posters. Below I have photos of all the toys in both vehicle/dinosaur mode and robot mode plus a couple extra goodies.
