Today, Sideshow Collectibles released teaser images of products that will be available to pre-order on September 10th. A few of these are speaking directly to the geek in me (which, let's face it, comprises nearly 87% of my total body weight).

For starters, my curiosity is peaked with the Luke Vs. Rancor polystone diorama. We're being teased with just a close-up of the Rancor's head. I can't wait to see the entire scene. Watching that battle from Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi when I was 5 years-old was one of the defining moments of cinematic history for me. A giant, blood-thirsty beast against our hero, who was armed only with the Force. How could a man possibly defeat such a beast that had only seconds ago wolfed down a brutish Gammorean guard, while barely making an effort to chew? (Seriously, kids. Remember to chew each bite 20 times before swallowing for proper digestion.) I am beyond excited for this one.

Two more geek-intensive movie items await you after the jump. Get to clicking to see previews of Wolverine's jacket and Iron Man's Arc Reactor from Museum Replica Limited.

[UPDATE: Pricing, and new details on Wolverine's jacket and the arc reactor after the jump, and new pics in the gallery.]

Wolverine's coat and dog tags are also worth geeking out over. Though it's being marketed as from the Wolverine solo flick, it's the same jacket that Hugh Jackman wore through the first two (i.e. good) X-films. So, no worries about it interfering with your cool cred. I'd really love to see how this looks in person, but from a photographic standpoint it's an impressive item. I love how the leather is worn out in places. This thing looks old and used. Very authentic. The coat and tags will run $350, and are available in sizes M through XXL. 

I absolutely adored the Iron Man movie. To me it was one of the greatest film experiences I've had in ages. With that in mind, I must say that this just blows my mind. The detail in Tony Stark's arc reactor is unbelievable. Just look at the solder-points on the leads and how the screw-head is worn and well on it's way to being stripped. This is actually the version from the movie that Pepper had mounted and and encased for Tony. Around the reactor is written "Proof that Tony Stark has a heart". It measures 4 1/2" high and comes within a plexiglass case. High intensity LEDs light up the unit to give it a super impressive feel. The cost on this is a very reasonable $150. I am going to try and talk myself out of picking one up, but I'm thinking that I'm going to ultimately give in.

My only question is: Why couldn't they have had this out last year before Halloween? Instead, I had to spend every last second of free time for two weeks making my own.
