When Hot Toys debuted their lineup of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 lineup of Movie Masterpiece Series sixth scale figures last year, many fans who missed out on the team from the first movie or who just wanted upgrades rejoiced. But over a year later, two of those prototypes had yet to be put up for sale. While it’s still unclear when or if we’ll get a new Drax, though, at least Zoe Saldana fans are finally being serviced: the new Hot Toys Gamora figure is now up for order!

Ever since he made his debut as the Winter Soldier in 2014, collectors have been dreaming of an SH Figuarts Bucky figure to pose alongside their Figuarts Captain America. We didn’t get one for The Winter Soldier, nor did we get the one Bandai teased for Civil War. But third time may be the charm: as part of the Avengers Infinity War series, an SH Figuarts Winter Soldier Bucky Barnes 6” figure is now up for order! However, is this the perfect Marvel Legends scale Bucky fans have been hoping for…?

At this point, we’ve seen almost everything Marvel Legends that Hasbro revealed last year at SDCC 2017 released in stores—with a couple of key exceptions. We’re still waiting for a wide release of the much-anticipated X-Men Marvel Legends Apocalypse series, but another (sort of) X-related release just came available this spring. Marvel Universe collectors have had little to enjoy so far in 2018, but the Marvel Legends Deadpool Rainbow Squad box set is now up for order!

When the Hot Toys Hulkbuster Iron Man from Avengers Age of Ultron finally shipped after a wait of over two years, collectors who got one were pretty breathless about how spectacular it was. But not every collector that wanted one pre-ordered years earlier, nor could they afford the $1K+ aftermarket prices. But fear not, Hot Toys hasn’t forsaken you: the 20” Hot Toys Infinity War Hulkbuster Iron Man figure is now up for order! He’s less articulated than his predecessor—but also half the price!

Now that you’ve seen Avengers Infinity War (and if you haven’t, get to it!), have you decided if you will be building the Cull Obsidian Build-A-Figure?
Over the weekend, I was gushing about how downright amazing I thought the Iron Studios Infinity War Thanos 1:10 scale Statue was.

How does it stack up to the competition’s statues? Let’s have a look…

As the Funko Marvel Collector Corps began 3 years ago with Avengers Age of Ultron, it seems appropriate that the MCC comes to its conclusion in its current form with this month’s Avengers Infinity War Box. The service will apparently be continuing via Amazon, but for now, this is the grand finale. Does the Infinity War Collector Corps Box end things on a high note, or with untapped potential? Read on for my review…

Medicom hit the Marvel toy collecting world with a real curveball earlier this year, when the first-ever Marvel comic-based MAFEX figure that they put up for sale was the newcomer Gwenpool. While MAFEX Gwenpool was definitely a fun and unique choice to lead off the line, she’s not exactly the kind of character that’s going to lure in tens of thousands of collectors. No, that distinction goes to the second release in the series: the MAFEX Spider-Man Comic Version figure is now up for order!

Hard truth: With the sheer number of superheroes appearing in Avengers Infinity War, the notion of putting together a large-scale resin statue collection of a majority of the heroes in the movie is a pretty unachievable proposition.

Kicking off the line, the Iron Studios Thanos and Cull Obsidian statues are now up for order!

As a huge fan of reasonably-priced statues that don’t have a humongous spatial footprint, Christmas comes at least once a month for me when Diamond Select Toys announces new Marvel Gallery PVC statues. And this month, DST has a trifecta of new pieces for our perusal: the Marvel Gallery Venom, Infinity War Iron Man, and movie Black Panther statues are now up for order!

We’ve been living in an absolute golden age of Marvel collectibles for the last few years, but even in this era there are casualties of war that fall through the cracks and are victims of cancellation. But the Man-Thing will not be denied! After being first solicited in 2014 as a 1:4 Statue, he’s back—at half the size and a vastly lower price! The Gentle Giant Man-Thing Statue is now up for order—along with their Marvel Collector’s Gallery 1992 Wolverine!

Funko put together a reasonably extensive lineup of Black Panther POP Vinyls Figures to coincide with the movie’s launch window—but with the Black Panther movie now firmly entrenched as the third highest-grossing movie of all-time domestically, they must have figured there was room for a bit of expansion! And so, three more fan favorites are on the way this summer: Funko M’Baku, Killmonger with Tattoos and Ulysses Klaue POPs are now up for Order!
