Marvel Legends Series 6-inch Deadpool with Scooter Vehicle

New York Comic Con 2018 comes to an end today, and that means I can dig in and start to work on comprehensive coverage of the convention, including the biggest event of the show for Marvel collectors: the NYCC Hasbro Marvel Legends Press Event! This featured an interview Q&A with the Hasbro team and numerous new reveals, including a few that really sold me on one of next year’s ML sets I was previously lukewarm on: the Marvel Legends Deadpool Scooter set now comes with a Bob Agent of Hydra head and more!

NYCC 2018: Marvel Legends Jubilee & Night Thrasher!

Posted on by October 7, 2018

Hasbro had plenty of major reveals at their New York Comic Con 2018 Press Event yesterday, but the one that just about brought me to tears is one that was actually revealed on a Marvel livestream: at long last, the first-ever 90s Jim Lee Marvel Legends Jubilee Figure is coming our way next year! And oh yeah—looks like it’s time to start a new team, as Night Thrasher is on the way as well…

Marvel Legends Ebony Maw and Corvus Glaive NYCC 201 Hasbro

Pretty much all of my NYCC 2018 Marvel Legends photos are now posted (or will be posted shortly) on Facebook (with a healthy dose on Instagram and Twitter), and I’ll begin posting about most of them here on the main page over the weekend. But as so many people have asked about this duo, I figured I’d throw up a quick post regarding two of the most-demanded characters revealed by Hasbro at the show: 2019 Marvel Legends Corvus Glaive and Ebony Maw!

NYCC 2018 Hydra Supreme Leader Captain America and Arnim Zola

The Hasbro NYCC 2018 Marvel Legends Press Event came to a close a few hours ago, and the embargo on news and information from that event is at an end! Most of my photos will be posted on the Marvel Toy News social media pages this afternoon, but I wanted to post about one new reveal particularly—because its on-sale date is today! First hinted at at SDCC, the Exclusive Marvel Legends Arnim Zola & Hydra Captain America set is now up for order!

Venom Marvel Legends Carnage REVIEW & Photos (2018)

Close-Up of Marvel Legends Carnage 6" Figure 2018 Hasbro

New York Comic Con 2018 is less than a week away, and as usual, the anticipated pre-NYCC Marvel toy news lull is upon us. But while we wait to see new offerings revealed by Hasbro, Kotobukiya, Diamond Select and more next week, it’s the perfect time for me to dig back into my cache of Marvel Legends figures needing a review. And this time, it’s a figure guaranteed to be one of this year’s most popular figures: Venom Marvel Legends Carnage may be two per case and fairly easy to order online for MSRP , but he may actually (rightfully) be the fastest seller in the Venom series!

Marvel Legends Mandarin Pepper Hot Rod Set Up for Order!

Marvel Legends Iron Man 3 Exclusive 3-Pack Mandarin Pepper Potts Hot Rod Iron Man

UPDATE 9/26/2018: Just like fans never saw the twist coming with the Mandarin in Iron Man 3 (okay, I did, I admit), a lot of collectors never saw it coming when the Marvel Legends Iron Man 3 three-pack went straight from pre-order to out of stock last week and immediately spiked to 180+ bucks on the aftermarket. But fear not, Gwyneth Paltrow fans: the Amazon Exclusive Marvel Legends Pepper Potts/Mandarin/Hot Rod Iron Man set is back up for order for MSRP while it lasts!

Marvel Legends Captain Marvel Movie Series Figures Up for Order!

Captain Marvel Legends Movie Figures Revealed

One of the things that I hear from collectors pretty much every single week is, “I wish Amazon would do pre-orders for upcoming Marvel Legends figures again!” Back in the good old days (okay, like a year or two ago), Amazon was the first place to offer figures like the X-Men Legends Juggernaut Series before any other retailer. Well, it looks like the olden days are back, because the first four Captain Marvel Marvel Legends 2019 figures are now up for order online, including movie Captain Marvel, Young Nick Fury, a Skrull and more!

Marvel Legends Netflix Luke Cage & Claire Temple Pack Online!

Netflix Marvel Legends Luke Cage and Claire Temple Official Photo

Netflix fans got a big surprise back in June, when a totally unannounced Marvel Legends Netflix Luke Cage and Claire Temple two-pack unexpectedly appeared at retail internationally. Hasbro eventually officially announced the set at SDCC 2018 in July, but it’s flown under the radar since. But for those looking to complete their Netflix series, the time has come: the exclusive Netflix Marvel Legends Luke Cage & Claire Temple set is now available online with free shipping!

Venom Marvel Legends Venom Series Figure Review (2018)

Marvel Legends Venom Series Venom Figure Review

Having talked about some of the coolest Symbiote figures Hasbro has ever done over the last two weeks, it’s only fair that today I turn my attention to the one figure in the Marvel Legends Venom Series that’s a big letdown for me: sadly, Venom himself. We last got a single-carded Venom figure back in 2016 as part of the Spider-Man Absorbing Man Series. Does this newly-released ML Venom figure bring anything valuable to the table for those who have the previous version…?

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Monster Venom Build-A-Figure

Close-Up of Monster Venom Marvel Legends Figure Head

I’m at the halfway point in my series of Venom Legends reviews, so I think it’s time I spotlighted the character more people requested a review of than any other in the wave: the Marvel Legends Monster Venom Build-A-Figure! The Monster Venom BAF is burning up the aftermarket and selling for about 75 bucks alone right now–is Hasbro’s bulkiest symbiote action figure ever worth the big money that collectors are paying for it?

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Scream Venom Series Figure

Posted on by September 8, 2018
Marvel Legends Scream Review

I was pleasantly surprised earlier this week, when I reviewed an action figure that turned out to be near-perfect for a character I wasn’t especially familiar with: Venom Legends Poison. Wanting to see if lightning might strike twice, I decided to focus my next review on another character I wasn’t exactly giddy over being in this wave. The Marvel Legends Scream figure that’s now available for order is the first female Symbiote figure that Hasbro has ever done, so she’s automatically the best—but is she good?

REVIEW: Venom Marvel Legends Poison Spider-Man Figure

Posted on by September 4, 2018
Poison Peter Parker Marvel Legends Six Inch Figure

When I asked readers on social media what recently-released Hasbro Marvel Legends figures I should prioritize reviewing first, I was pretty stunned to see a multitude of votes for the Venom Legends Poison figure. Having never read even one panel with the character before, I rushed to buy the Venomverse TPB so I wouldn’t be writing blind. Now that I’m thoroughly acquainted with both the character and the Marvel Legends Poison figure that’s now available, what’s the verdict? Read on…

Marvel Legends Venomized Punisher Venom Exclusive Figure!

Posted on by August 31, 2018
Marvel Unlimited Plus 2019 Marvel Legends Venomized Punisher Figure

Sharp-eyed readers noticed that earlier today I mentioned Hasbro had unveiled five new Marvel Legends figures today, even though only four new ML debuted at Canada Fan Expo 2018. The fifth one sort of flew under the radar, because it was quietly and unceremoniously announced via the Marvel Unlimited Plus website. That’s right, the MU Exclusive figure for 2019 has now been revealed, and I suspect its one no one on Earth guessed: Marvel Legends Venomized Punisher!
