Things are starting to heat up in the world of San Diego Comic-Con news. Earlier this morning, we had the honor of unveiling an exclusive NECA Terminator 2 figure, and now, in Under the Tents, we might have word on another NECA exclusive that’s coming further down the line. We’ve also got word on exclusives from CHEW, Captain Action, Mezco Toys, and more – as well as how our Australian readers can score badges.

Here’s a look at the news you might have missed:

• The Twitter account for the upcoming documentary Life After Flash tweeted that Sam J. Jones will be at SDCC signing Entertainment Earth Exclusive’s Flash Gordon action figures. These don’t look like Comic-Con exclusives, as they release in June, but as more information becomes available, we’ll keep you updated.

• Mezco Toyz responded on Twitter to an inquiry that exclusives will be revealed soon and chances of Mortal Kombat X 6″ exclusives at SDCC are pretty good.
