James Cameron's AVATAR takes us to a spectacular new world beyond our imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption, discovery and unexpected love, as he leads a heroic battle to save a civilization. The film was first conceived by Cameron 14 years ago, when the means to realize his vision did not yet exist. Now, after four years of actual production work, AVATAR delivers a fully immersive cinematic experience of a new kind, where the revolutionary technology invented to make the film, disappears into the emotion of the characters and the sweep of the story.
In the land of Pandora, everything organic glows in the dark including the wild and fierce Na'vi creatures.
Mattel will be releasing a line of 4.25" figures that include the Na'vi creatures from James Cameron's Avatar accented with glow-in-the-dark luminescence. There will also be figures based on the human characters including J
ake Sully, Col. Quaritch and
Dr. Grace Augustine played by actress
Sigourney Weaver. These figures will be in 3.75" scale. Each figure comes with a unique weapon or accessory and exclusive character specific i-Tag to bring the figures to 3-D life.
Mattel will also be releasing a highly articulated, with impressive detail and poseability creature assortment, this set of Na'vi creatures is sure to be a collector's favorite. Each is designed to carry any basic Avatar figure and accented with glow-in-the-dark luminescence. Comes with multiple "authentic" accessories and a unique creature specific i-Tag to take you deeper into the mysterious world of Pandora.
For the humans there will be vehicles such as the S
corpion Gunship, AMP Suit and
