REVIEW: Marvel Legends Rintrah Build-A-Figure (Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness 2022 Series)

Posted on by April 1, 2022
Close-Up of Marvel Legends Rintrah BAF Head Doctor Strange 2 Movie

While fans may have reasonably hoped for an MCU Ancient One or even Kaecillius as the fourth movie character in this year’s Marvel Legends Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness series, Hasbro decided to go wild and crazy instead with a character new to the MCU in Doctor Strange 2: the headliner Rintrah Build-A-Figure that collectors will have to build the rest of the series to assemble! Is this fuzzy green minotaur-looking sorcerer worth your effort and investment to put together?

Marvel Legends Retro Hobgoblin Figure REVIEW (2022 Spider-Man Collection)

Posted on by March 26, 2022
Hobgoblin Marvel Legends 2022 Hasbro Figure Pumpkin Bomb Review

The 2022 Marvel Legends Spider-Man Retro Collection is chock full of “ultimate”, definitive-level 6” action figures. The subject of today’s review is not one of those figures, in my opinion. While there’s always plenty of fans excited and happy to buy a new Marvel Legends Hobgoblin figure, I’m not convinced that this 90s Spider-Man animated style Hobgoblin figure is hardly an upgrade over what we’ve seen previously at all…

Iron Studios Deadpool Statue REVIEW! (X-Men vs. Sentinels BDS Series)

Posted on by March 19, 2022
Iron StuDios Deadpool Statue Review 1:10 X-Men BDS

Deadpool was actually the very first character I ever bought a full-body resin statue for, way back in 2005 (from Bowen Designs). So you could say I was a Deadpool-collecting fanboy before Deadpool was cool—or at least since before he was gratuitously merchandised. As such, I was primed and ready to buy whatever Deadpool Iron Studios put out as soon as they announced it was on the way. Deadpool turns out to be one of the most expensive entries in the whole X-Men BDS statues lineup… but that doesn’t mean he’s necessarily one of the best…

REVIEW: 2022 Marvel Legends Spider-Armor Spider-Man Retro Figure

Posted on by March 15, 2022

You just know it’s a true golden age of Marvel action figures when Hasbro feels confident enough to bring out a new version of one of Toybiz’s biggest duds of all-time. The Spider-Man The Animated Series Spider-Armor figure languished unloved on store shelves for years and years in the 90s, which is likely why it’s never been upgraded to a 6” figure. But the time has come to see the Spider-Armor Mark I available again, and the retro 90s Toybiz packaging definitely feels apropos in this instance. this is probably the only Marvel Legends Spider-Armor Mark I figure ever to be available—is it worth getting? Here’s my review…

Marvel Legends Sleepwalker REVIEW (Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness Rintrah Series)

Posted on by March 10, 2022
Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness Astral Form & Sleepwalker Figures

From Siryn to Speedball, Hasbro is rolling out a multitude of never-before-done characters as part of their 2022 Marvel Legends figures lineup. And the latest 90s niche favorite to get the spotlight is the subject of today’s review: Marvel Legends Sleepwalker! He’s in-stock now on Amazon for MSRP and not nearly as Z-List as Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness wave-mate D’Spayre—should you let this comics-based Sleepwalker figure haunt your waking hours?

Hawkeye Marvel Legends Figures Up for Order! Kate Bishop & Clint Barton! Infinity Ultron BAF!

Posted on by March 8, 2022
2023 Marvel Legends Infinity Ultron Hawkeye Figures Series Hasbro

Hawkeye doesn’t seem to have had nearly the same level of success and mainstream permeation as the other Disney+ Marvel series. I’ve never seen a singular meme or had any friend say a peep to me about the show, unlike even What If? Nor have there been any Hawkeye toys on store shelves just yet. But the Disney+ Hawkeye merch universe is getting a big boost of notoriety today, as the Marvel Legends Hawkeye Kate Bishop and Clint Barton figures are now up for order from the Infinity Ultron Build-A-Figure series!

Walgreens Exclusive Marvel Legends Binary Figure Up for Order Online!

Walgreens Exclusive Binary Legends Figure

Carol Danvers’ popularity has had its ups and downs since her live-action MCU movie came out in 2019, with some fans quickly burning out on the character due to the copious amounts of merch suddenly available for her. But one version of Captain Marvel a lot of collectors have still been asking to see in Hasbro 6” figure form is her ultimate comic-based form: Binary! Her limited release was announced last year, but after initially only being available at EBGames in Canada, while supplies last (which won’t be long if she follows the trends of Quasar and Nova),  the Walgreens Exclusive Binary figure is now up for order online domestically!

Marvel Legends 2022 Hammerhead Figure REVIEW (Spider-Man Retro Series)

Posted on by March 1, 2022
Review Hammerhead Marvel Legends 2022 Figure

It’s fitting that in the year that will include the half-century anniversary of his first appearance, Hammerhead will at long last be having his first mass-release action figure on retail store shelves as well. He may look like a generic gangster with a bad haircut, but Hammerhead has appeared in numerous forms of media over the years and is among the most prolific Spidey villains still needing a Hasbro figure. Now that the Marvel Legends Hammerhead Spider-Man Retro Series figure is available and shipping out, should you let this mobster lay claim to your 22 dollars?

Diamond Select Toys July 2022 Solicitations

If there hadn’t been an ongoing global pandemic, New York Toy Fair 2022 would have gone on as expected over last weekend. But there is, and it didn’t. Even so, Diamond Select Toys launched a quartet of new headliner Marvel collectibles last week—including the long-requested Marvel Select Vision figure, as well as Skottie Young Marvel Animated Winter Soldier and Marvel Gallery Beta Ray Bill & Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness PVC Statues!

Marvel Legends Zombie Captain America Figure REVIEW (What If? Watcher Series)

Posted on by February 27, 2022
Review Marvel Legends Zombie Captain America

I really, really hate zombies. I think they’re ugly and gross and all-around unpleasant to look at or think about. But something about “Paragon of Good” Captain America as a gruesome, flesh-eating, corpse-colored zombie holds a certain juxtapositional appeal, even to me. And so, I had little doubt in my mind that the Marvel Legends Zombie Captain America figure would be a top seller, regardless of how the What If? show was ultimately received. And, well—he has indeed sold like wildfire! Is this brain-eating Sentinel of Liberty’s success deserved? Here’s my review…

Retro Rhino Marvel Legends Spider-Man Vintage Figure Packaged

Marvel Legends fans may not have gotten to see the 20th Anniversary ML Toad figure everyone is waiting for during this week’s Fan First livestream—but they did get the reveal of a previously-teased and much-demanded revisit of another villain: the single-carded Marvel Legends Rhino Retro Spider-Man figure is now up for order!

Marvel Legends Psycho-Man Figure REVIEW (Fantastic Four Retro Series)

Posted on by February 20, 2022
Marvel Legends Psycho-Man Figure Review with Control Box

Not every supervillain Stan Lee and Jack Kirby created went on to become a mass merchandising juggernaut and household name. Some just became classic characters who show up every now and again in minor comic book appearances and have merely mild fandoms. Such is the case with the subject of today’s Marvel Legends review: Psycho-Man was one of the better Toybiz 5” Fantastic Four figures back in the day—can the Hasbro Marvel Legends Psycho-Man Fantastic Four Retro 6” figure top it?

REVIEW: Marvel Legends 2022 Doctor Strange Astral Form 6″ Figure

Posted on by February 16, 2022
Astral Doctor Strange Marvel Legends Figure Holding BAF Rintrah Head

When it comes to Doctor Strange merch, astral form repaints of the good doctor are cheap, easy-to-create, and justifiable repaints—which is why we have numerous of them from Hasbro, Diamond Select Toys, Funko and more. So it was not exactly an eyebrow-raiser when Hasbro debuted the new Marvel Legends Doctor Strange Astral figure in the Multiverse of Madness movie Rintrah Series. Does this figure improve over the original iteration released six years back? Here’s my review…
