This is a unique, landmark weekend for Hasbro, because for the very first time ever, they’re unveiling new 2019 Marvel Legends figures at two major international conventions in separate countries in Europe! At Comic Con Paris, we got our first gander at the new Grey Gargoyle and Loki figures. And now, at MCM London, the final figures have been revealed for the first Spider-Man and X-Men waves of 2019: Six-Armed Spider-Man, Puma… and Jim Lee Beast!

When it comes to Cyclops costumes, I’m a Jim Lee guy all the way. So even though it was inevitable that we’d get a variant of him from Mezco Toyz, they were going to have to really do something special to get another purchase from me.

Basically everything I wanted that was missing from the Jim Lee Version is all present and accounted for with the new PX Exclusive ONE:12 Collective Classic Cyclops figure that’s now up for PO!

Being a Mezco ONE:12 Collective Marvel collector ain’t easy. The majority of the regular releases tend to sell out and increase in price before they ever ship, and the various Mezco and convention exclusives tend to skyrocket in price after they pop up with no warning and sell out in an hour. Marvel ONE:12 Collective is a toy line where demand exceeds supply more often than not—and the latest example of this is the exclusive Homemade Suit Spider-Man figure that came and sold out earlier today…

Bandai’s SH Figuarts Black Panther came and went earlier this year with a sprinkle of collector enthusiasm, but as solid as it was—it wasn’t quite perfect. No T’Challa Unmasked Head, no weapons for Black Panther to wield, proportions looking a smidge off, and a teeny bit too small for Marvel Legends. But for those out there who don’t want to settle for anything less than perfection, it looks like you may not have to: the 6” MAFEX Black Panther movie figure is now up for order!

Erick Sosa has sculpted some of Kotobukiya’s most legendary pieces over the past half decade-plus, including the ultra-popular X-Men Danger Room Sessions series of resin statues and the grail-like Spider-Man and Venom Fine Arts statues.

Even so, there was still one final Sosa statue stuck in the pipeline, and though it no-showed NYCC 2018, it’s officially confirmed to be coming our way: the Kotobukiya Weapon X Wolverine Fine Arts statue is now up for order!

For Hot Toys Marvel collectors, New York Comic Con 2018 was a pretty forgettable—if not disappointing—show. While the die-cast Neon Tech Iron Man (AKA Tron Iron Man) was available first to NYCC attendees, there were a whopping zero never-before-seen Movie Masterpiece Series 1/6 figures unveiled at the event. But one previously shown figure we weren’t entirely sure was going to get released did make a reappearance in New York City, and now he’s officially on the way: the Hot Toys Concept Art Iron Man Mark XLVI figure is now up for order!
