Marvel Legends White Costume Black Widow Figure and Accessories

The moment that the first trailer for the Black Widow movie dropped and the corresponding movie Legends wave was revealed last month, collectors started demanding to know when and where we’d be getting a figure of the eye-grabbing white costume seen prominently in the trailer. Well, Hasbro didn’t make us wait too long for the answer: the Deluxe Black Widow Marvel Legends White Costume figure is now up for order with free shipping—and she comes packing extra gun, effects pieces, explosions, a flight stand and more!

Sideshow Doctor Strange Maquette Statue Photos & Order Info!

Doctor Strange Sideshow Collectibles 2020 Statue

For over 14 long years, the resin Bowen Designs Doctor Strange statue by the Kucharek Bros. has reigned supreme and unchallenged as the best domestic comic-based statue of the Sorcerer Supreme in all the land. But following the good doctor’s explosive rise in popularity thanks to his appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a new challenger is about to enter the fray: the 1/4 Sideshow Collectibles Doctor Strange statue went up for order today! And who better to try to take down the champion than the sculptors of the Bowen piece—the Kucharek Brothers themselves…

REVIEW: Fantastic Four Marvel Legends Human Torch Johnny Storm Figure

Posted on by January 15, 2020
Human Torch Six Inch Figure Hasbro 2020 Marvel Legends

FLAME ON! Or, at least… sort of on! Maybe 10% on! It’s finally time to complete my reviews of the new Marvel Legends Fantastic Four, with the original Marvel hot-headed young male—Johnny Storm! This is the figure that varies the most wildly from the Walgreens Exclusive version, but this Human Torch is also the easiest Fantastic Four Legends figure to snag online for retail. Is there anything wrong with this flamed-off Human Torch figure, or is non-powered Johnny Storm just not as visually compelling in toy form…?

Doctor Doom Marvel Legends 2020 Figure Review (Super Skrull Series)

Posted on by January 10, 2020
Fantastic Four Legends Thing vs Dr Doom

I was planning to finish off the week by flaming on a review of the new Human Torch figure, but it turned out that there was a despot who demanded to be moved closer to Richards in the reviewing queue! Considered by many to be the greatest villain in the Marvel Universe (and even greatest villain period by some), the King of Latveria has already pre-sold out via sites like Amazon and BBTS despite being two-per-case. EE is still taking orders for the new Marvel Legends Doctor Doom figure for an arrival this month—is this a figure worth locking in if you haven’t done so already…?

Marvel Legends 2020 Fantastic Four The Thing Figure Review (Super Skrull Series)

Posted on by January 9, 2020
The Thing and Invisible Woman Hasbro Marvel Legends 2020 Figures

Logically I would follow up my 2020 Marvel Legends Invisible Woman review with a look at her brother (the Human Torch), but instead I’m going to mix things up and focus on the character who would be this wave’s headliner if not for a certain Victor von Doom! Fantastic Four Legends The Thing is in-stock and shipping out now via online stores, and hopefully there will be enough to meet demand this time (as Ben is packed at two-per-case), because this ever-lovin’ blue-eyed Thing is a real winner of an action figure that every fan deserves a shot at!

REVIEW: 2020 Marvel Legends Fantastic Four Invisible Woman Figure

Posted on by January 7, 2020
Fantastic Four Marvel Legends Invisible Woman Review

I kicked off my series of Marvel Legends 2020 reviews yesterday with Mr. Fantastic, and it only seems right that I continue along that track today with Reed’s wife so that he doesn’t get lonely: the Fantastic Four Marvel Legends Invisible Woman figure is now shipping out online! It seems like only yesterday the exclusive Walgreens Invisible Woman hit shelves, but it was actually 2017–has Hasbro found a way to make this Sue Storm a worthy addition to that classic version?

Fantastic Four Legends Mr. Fantastic in Black Costume

Marvel Legends 2020 figures are finally starting to ship out via online retailers (and arrive in some brick and mortar stores), and as such I’m able to launch my first 2020 Marvel Legends review today at last! And what better place to begin than with the leader of Marvel’s first family: the Fantastic Four Marvel Legends Mr. Fantastic figure is shipping out now online—if you already have the Walgreens version, does this new iteration of Reed Richards have anything to offer?

Just when you thought the Spider-Man Far From Home toys were over, one more springs into solicitations: the Mezco ONE:12 Collective Exclusive Stealth Suit Spider-Man is now up for order! Now that fans have had six months to let Spidey FFH percolate in the back of their minds, is there still a market for launching more high-end figures from the movie?

Gamestop Exclusive PS4 Spider-Man Marvel Gallery Statues Taxi Punk

Square Enix’s Avengers video game is looking to topple 2018’s Spider-Man PS4 game as the king of the Marvel GamerVerse in May, but Spidey isn’t ready to give up his throne for a few more months! And as such, the merch for the best-selling game continues to roll out, expanding with a pair of brand new PVC figures that are GameStop Exclusives: Marvel Gallery Spider-Punk and PS4 Spider-Man on Taxi Cab are now up for order!

Funko POP Venomized Punisher Green Goblin Miles Ultron Groot & More!

Posted on by January 4, 2020
Funko POP 2020 Venomized Venom Series Vinyl Figures

Just like you should never underestimate a droid, you should never underestimate Funko. When Funko launched their inaugural Venomized POP Vinyls in 2018 featuring characters like Venom Hulk and Captain America, I thought the series would find a niche audience and then fizzle. Instead, they’re kicking off 2020 with a third wave of the best-selling line: Funko POP Venomized Punisher, Ultron, Miles, Baby Groot and more are now up for order! And oh yeah—there’s a Hot Topic Exclusive Green Goblin Venom up for PO as well…

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Spider-Woman Julia Carpenter 6″ Figure

Posted on by January 2, 2020
Marvel Legends 2019 Spider-Woman Julia Carpenter Figure Review

I hoped to kick off my 2020 reviews with an actual Marvel Legends 2020 figure review, but I was foiled by the fact that, well… I haven’t received any of the 2020 Marvel Legends figures I ordered yet. Alas! And so, for my first review of the new decade, I’ve got to dip into my cache of unreviewed action figures from the last decade. The Hasbro Marvel Legends Spider-Woman Julia Carpenter figure is discounted to just 12 bucks now and is the first 6” Julia since Toybiz did theirs 13 years ago—has Hasbro outdone their ML predecessor this time out?

Hot Toys Endgame Captain America 2012 Figure Up for Order! MMS 563

Posted on by January 2, 2020
Hot Toys MMS563 Captain America 2012 Version Battle

2020 may have arrived, but news is slow this holiday week and the Marvel Legends 2020 figures are still just beginning to trickle into stores at a slow pace. But while most collectibles companies making Marvel merch have been quiet this week, Hot Toys managed to slip in one more Avengers Endgame movie 12” figure pre-order to coincide with the new decade’s arrival: the MMS 563 Hot Toys 2012 Captain America Endgame figure is now up for order! Is this a worthwhile pickup for those who missed the original (or those who didn’t but want an upgrade)?

Avengers Marvel Legends Loki Figure Review & Photos (Endgame Hulk Series)

Posted on by December 30, 2019
Close-Up of Marvel Legends Avengers Hulk Series Loki Action Figure

From Tom Hiddleston Loki to female Loki to Toybiz’s Loki, there have been a fair number of 6” Marvel Legends Loki figures released over the last 13 years. But weirdly enough, one God of Mischief action figure we’ve never gotten before in ML scale is the classic Jack Kirby Loki! But hey, what better time for Hasbro to release one than simultaneously with the classic Thor in the 80th Anniversary series, right? Even so, the classic Avengers Legends Loki is selling for a mere 11 bucks shipped already online—should you get one while he’s nearly half-price…?

PCS Venompool Statue Photos & Order Info! 40”! Contest of Champions!

Posted on by December 30, 2019
Size Comparison of Venompool PCS Statue and Sideshow Deadpool 12 Inch Figure

When Hot Toys launched pre-orders in the summer for their 14” Venompool 1:6 figure for $400+, I thought that would be one of the wildest solicitations of the year. I mean, 400 bucks for a virtually unknown mobile game mash-up character? Crazy talk. But Marvel newcomer Pop Culture Shock Collectibles is upping the ante in a mind-exploding away: the 40” PCS Venompool 1:3 scale statue goes up for order this afternoon… for $2500! (Yes, you read that right.) Yowza. Let’s have a look…

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Rescue Pepper Potts Figure (Avengers Endgame)

Posted on by December 27, 2019
Avengers Endgame Marvel Legends Rescue Figure Review

Avengers Endgame is the highest-grossing movie of all-time and was subject to a near-unparalleled level of interest prior to its release—but some how, some way, Marvel Studios managed to keep many of the film’s secrets from being spoiled for the general public. One of those secrets happened to be that Pepper Potts would don her own designated armor in the final battle. But the secret wasn’t kept from Hasbro, who had a Rescue figure ready to launch right after the movie! Despite still being available online at a discount, Marvel Legends Rescue Pepper Potts is easily the most popular figure in this wave—is it with good reason?
