No More Heroes ... At Least Until Fall
Hayden Panettiere let it leak that Heroes won't be back for the rest of the season, even though the strike is coming to an end. Maybe this will allow the writers to focus on Season Three (Season 2.0 Redux?) and come out of the gate with a bang instead of a whimper. After all, we know they've filmed part of Volume Three: Villains and that it's all about the bad guys, so how can they screw that up? Plus Zachary Quinto will be done with Spock duty, so they can cram more Sylar in there for extra brain-munching action. [Ain't It Cool News]

Fugly-Twin Powers, Activate!
We told you yesterday about the upcoming line of Heroes figures, and now we've tracked down more images of the first wave of toys based on the hit NBC show. These are apparently all prototype figures — the real ones will be out later this year. Based on what we've seen, maybe that means there's still a chance to go back and fix things like making Claire actually look like her character, and having Sylar not look like a neanderthal. Check out more mind-bogglingly awful details and pictures inside, like Sylar with his awesome brain accessory. More »
The Coolness of New "Heroes" Action Figures? Not So Much.
The most recent issue of Toyfare magazine came out yesterday, and it has a spread on all the new Heroes action figures that'll be out later this year. Since it's looking less and less likely that you'll be seeing new episodes anytime soon, it might be time to pick up some of these and bust out that video camera. Unfortunately, the Sylar figure does not have brain-eating action, so you might want to add your own visual effects. Maybe even ones that make these figures look a bit better because... yow.

Milo Wuvs Hayden, We Saw It Coming
At the Jules Verne Adventure Film Festival last month during the Heroes event, we noticed that Milo Ventimiglia and Hayden Panettiere were canoodling with each other the whole time, whispering back and forth like giddy schoolkids. But, we chalked it up to nerves and confusion about what was going on during the Q&A. For instance, Milo's answer to "How has Heroes changed your life?" was "I don't really know what to say." Nice. Our tabloid-papparazzo circuit wasn't working properly that day and anyhow, now it's official. The brother/sister set of Peter Petrelli and Claire Bennet are Hollywood's newest incestuous power couple. At least until Sylar swoops in and eats their brains, hoping to gain some of their couple-of-the-moment pheromones.

Who Would Win a Mutant-on-Mutant Smackdown: Sylar or Magneto?
Heroes has borrowed liberally from the universe of Marvel's comic book X-Men. Both TV show and comic book are about super-heroes who gain powers through genetic mutations. And both have their bad guys. Heroes' Sylar is a mommy-obsessed nerd who wants to be the most powerful mutant in the world. X-Men's Magneto is a mutant-supremacist who thinks humans should be the slaves of his master race. Who would win in a fight? More »
