X-Men Legends 2019 Figures Packaged

The three waves of Marvel Legends figures hitting this month (the Spider-Man Kingpin Series, Captain Marvel Movie Series and Black Panther M’Baku Series) have been a bit hit-or-miss with collectors, with many fans saying they’re picking-and-choosing just a figure or two or even skipping the waves entirely. But Hasbro posted the first packaging photos today of a wave that’s got “surefire blockbuster” written all over it: the 2019 Marvel Legends X-Men Caliban Series!

Marvel Legends Mysterio Figure Restock Up for Pre-Order Now!

Marvel Legends Mysterio Figure 2018 Lizard Series

UPDATE (1/17/2019): Well here’s a bit of a (very welcome) surprise! Even though it’s been close to a year since the Spider-Man Marvel Legends Lizard wave began hitting retail in winter 2018, demand for at least one figure in the wave was simply never met and aftermarket prices soared. But seeing as how he’s set to be featured in this summer’s second-biggest superhero flick, Hasbro must have figured now was the time to strike with an upcoming restock: the Marvel Legends Mysterio figure is back up for pre-order online now!

Walgreens Exclusive Minimates Captain Marvel Movie Figures Released!

Walgreens Captain Marvel Movie Minimates Series Exclusive Two-Packs

Things have been a little bit quieter and a little bit bleaker for Minimates collectors since the untimely demise of Toys R Us last year, but Walgreens has picked up a lot of the slack and brought fans many Marvel Minimates packs that otherwise might never have been produced. And the latest Walgreens Exclusive series is one a lot of collectors would have cried foul about not getting: the Captain Marvel Minimates movie series (including Ronan, Coulson, Nick Fury and more!) has now been released and is already fetching big bucks on ebay!

Best of Marvel Legends 2019 Figures Series Packaged

It’s become a bit of a tradition each year that an international “Best of Marvel Legends” wave gets released merging many of the difficult-to-acquire movie figures from the prior year into one big MCU wave. Hasbro has produced an intermixed wave like this every year for the past three years, and now it’s confirmed that international collectors will be getting a new Marvel Legends “Best Of” wave for 2019, featuring figures from “Avengers Infinity War” and “Ant-Man and the Wasp”! US collectors need not apply…

And that’s just what Funko aims to do with their latest reveal: the jumbo Amazon Exclusive Funko 10” Giant-Man POP Vinyl is now up for order!

REVIEW: Marvel Legends T’Chaka Figure (Black Panther M’Baku Series)

Marvel Legends King T'Chaka 6" Figure Review

One of the most difficult collecting decisions I had to make last year was ultimately to pass on the Hot Toys T’Chaka Black Panther figure. As much as I loved having at least one of every MCU character in my Hot Toys 1/6 figure Collection, King T’Chaka just isn’t a character I felt I needed a $220 figure of. But while I wouldn’t pay that price for T’Challa’s dad, I was willing to drop 20 bucks on the Marvel Legends T’Chaka 6” figure! At that price, is it worth having the former King of Wakanda in your collection?

Captain Marvel Marvel Legends Kree Sentry Build-A-Figure REVIEW

Hasbro Kree Sentry Captain Marvel Legends Series Build-A-Figure Review

Oftentimes the Build-A-Figure of a Marvel Legends series is the most in-demand character in the wave and acts as a sort of carrot to sell the rest of the figures (a la Kingpin). But sometimes the BAF is a little… less… demanded. Such is the case with today’s subject of review: the Captain Marvel Marvel Legends Kree Sentry Build-A-Figure! Despite being a classic comic book based character and an army-builder, the Kree Sentry BAF is already selling for just 60 bucks two weeks after release. Is this first ML BAF of 2019 an underrated one?

REVIEW: Captain Marvel Movie Marvel Legends Nick Fury Figure

Marvel Legends Captain Marvel Movie Nick Fury & Goose Cat Review

Although the Captain Marvel movie will primarily be featuring a slew of characters that are new to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there are still a couple familiar faces in the film. And the most hype-worthy of the returning MCU mainstays is Samuel L. Jackson, who reportedly will be getting an origin story of a sorts in the film. And to celebrate, he’s also getting his first mass-released 6” figure: the young Nick Fury Marvel Legends movie figure (with Goose “cat”!) is now available online—is the future director of SHIELD worth your 20 bucks?

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Captain Marvel Movie Figure (& Goose Cat!)

Marvel Legends Captain Marvel & Goose the Cat Figures Review

Fact of action figure industry life: tooling has got to be reused when possible to save money and make costs even out logistically. That’s why we got the weird Astral Doctor Strange figure a few years back, and it’s why we’re getting this Captain Marvel Legends figure in flight jacket. But unlike that Doctor Strange, this figure has a few things in its favor, including a new Brie Larson portrait and an exclusive Goose the Cat figure. Do these new additions warrant dropping $19.99 on this version of Carol?

Captain Marvel Legends 6″ Figures Series Unboxing & Impressions!

Marvel Legends Captain Marvel Movie Figures Unboxing

Way, way back in September 2018, Amazon shocked the Marvel collecting world when they put up super-early pre-orders for half of the Captain Marvel Legends figures series, including Carol Danvers herself, Starforce Commander (Yon-Rogg), young Nick Fury, and Talos the Skrull Commander. I put my POs in for all those figures four months ago and then put them on the back-burner in my mind, knowing they’d show up in early 2019. And lo and behold–they have arrived! I’ll post full reviews of them in the coming days, but here’s my unboxing photos and first impressions…

REVIEW: Marvel Gallery Venom PVC Figure Statue (Diamond Select Toys)

Marvel Gallery Venom Statue Review Photos

Diamond Select Toys has spent the last few years revolutionizing the size, detail and quality that we can expect from value-priced PVC statues, and as they’ve become one of my absolute favorite companies, it only seems right to kick off 2019 with a Marvel Gallery review to see how far the line has come. The less than $45 Marvel Gallery Venom Statue just started shipping this winter, and despite its low price, it’s one of my favorite (and the most unique) Venom figures in the land…
