Hot Toys Marvel Movie Promo Figures have been some of the most limited and sought-after 1/6 figures in the the Movie Masterpiece Series, so it goes without saying that Hot Toys would want to release one of their best-selling variants for the biggest Marvel movie ever. And this time, they’ve even been nice enough to give us a heads-up comparison to the regular version: the EXCLUSIVE Hot Toys Infinity War Captain America Movie Promo figure is now up for order! If you want this, don’t sleep on it–this will likely sell out within 6-12 hours!
Continue Reading →The meteoric rise of the Marvel Cinematic Universe has led to many Marvel characters that were either unknown or only somewhat liked quickly becoming beloved around the world. Such is the case with Daredevil, who was once ridiculed for having one of the worst superhero movies, but has found a new lease on life thanks to Netflix. And to go with his newfound popularity, DD is getting a new 1/4 Statue: the Sideshow Exclusive Daredevil Premium Format Figure is now up for order!
Continue Reading →Hot Toys shocked the Marvel collecting world last month when their launch lineup of Avengers Infinity War toys includes a jaw-dropping life-size Infinity Gauntlet prop replica. Sadly, not everyone has almost $1K they’re not using for that spectacular masterpiece. But it looks like Hot Toys has realized that, because they have something a bit more budget-priced lined up for those collectors: a $95 Hot Toys Infinity Gauntlet Quarter-Scale “figure” is now up for order!
Continue Reading →While a continuing Marvel Legends Deadpool Series on paper sounded like it could get really old, really fast, Hasbro has actually managed to make the Deadpool Legends highly desirable by sprinkling in characters that are more X-Men related than necessarily Deadpool related. The 2018 Marvel Legends Deadpool Wave 1 has been incredibly popular and hard to find in stores thus far, and Wave 2 looks to be just as popular with headliners like Bishop, Omega Red and a Sauron Build-A-Figure!
Continue Reading →It’s taken about a month for it to happen, but most Hasbro collectors have managed to build the Thanos Build-A-Figure put together their Marvel Legends Infinity War Wave 1 sets by now. There’s no rest with the movie on the horizon, though, as Wave 2–the Cull Obsidian Series is coming up fast! And while we don’t have a pre-order or release date yet for the series, packaged photos of the entire set (including Marvel Legends Infinity War Thor and Black Widow!) appeared online this week…

Zoinks. But to celebrate 5 years of ARTFX+ Marvel, Koto is going back to where the line began: with an expansion of the Avengers! And hey, you could do a lot worse than starting off with the titular character of the top-grossing US superhero movie ever: the Kotobukiya Black Panther ARTFX+ Statue is now up for order!

Well, it’s taken 39 months for it to happen, but that promised day…? It’s here! The Infinity War Hot Toys Thanos sixth scale figure is now up for order—and it comes with not one or two, but three Infinity Gauntlets!
Continue Reading →It was a quiet Easter weekend (and I don’t do April Fool’s Day ever—sorry to anyone disappointed), so today let’s get back into the groove and take a look back at some Marvel Legends revealed at New York Toy Fair 2018 that I’ve mainly talked about on social media to-date. The Spider-Man Marvel Legends SP//dr Series is an interesting set where the main lineup is composed of all headliners (including Doc Ock and Cloak & Dagger!)—and one Build-A-Figure many folks have never heard of…
Continue Reading →Leave it to Hot Toys to keep Marvel collectors on their toes! Whereas we’ve all been anticipating an onslaught of Avengers Infinity War sixth scale figures this month, they threw us off earlier this month with their fashionably late Thor Ragnarok Loki figure pre-order. And today, they’ve got something wholly unexpected lined up: a repainted Hot Toys Life-Size Baby Groot figure is now up for order! What’s different, and is this the Life Size Groot figure version to own…?
Continue Reading →Something magical was lost from the collecting world when Bowen Designs closed down: an expansive line of reasonably-priced, medium-sized resin Marvel statues covering a huge range of characters. But Diamond Select Toys has been bringing the magic back with their Marvel Premier Collection statues line, which gets better with each release. And while I’ve been too lazy to review any up until now, the Marvel Premier Collection Moon Knight I ordered online finally arrived and gave me ample motivation to do so…

And when it comes to classic comic book Iron Man repaints, there’s no armor out there that’s been more prevalent for repaints than the blueberry-flavored Stealth Iron Man. So when Mezco Toyz premiered they’re ONE:12 Collective Iron Man last year, it was a foregone conclusion we’d see a blue repaint. And that inevitability has now occurred: the ONE:12 Collective Exclusive Stealth Iron Man figure is now up for order!
Continue Reading →UPDATE 3/26: For those who have been holding out for months waiting to get it for the best possible price–the Marvel Legends Defenders 4-Pack is the Deal of the Day for 46 bucks shipped (down from 80!). That’s 41% Off, and very likely to be the best price that we see the Defenders Box Set available for before it sells out! Sale is for today only, so if you want this set at a major discount, now’s the time…
Continue Reading →UPDATE 3/23/2018: A lot of Marvel collectors were disappointed when their Toys R Us Exclusive Scarlet Witch and Vision two-pack online orders were cancelled (including me)! Many feared that their hopes of ever getting these movie figures for non-scalper prices were at an end. But worry not–we all have another chance: the Marvel Legends Vision & Scarlet Witch pack is now up for order on EE for MSRP!
Despite having only been created less than 7 years ago, Miles Morales Spider-Man has quickly rocketed in notoriety and popularity to become one of the most recognizable comic characters created in the 21st century. And now, Miles is finally hitting the collectibles big-time with his first high-end quarter-scale statue: the Sideshow EXCLUSIVE Premium Format Miles Morales Statue is now up for order!
Continue Reading →Whenever I mention Gwenpool, I tend to preface it with “I don’t really like this character”. And so, I don’t think anyone will be gobsmacked to hear that my anticipation for her first 6″ figure wasn’t quite off-the-charts. But to my utter astonishment, it turns out that not only do I not hate this Marvel Legends Gwenpool figure–I really kind of love it. The Spider-Man Legends Gwenpool Lizard Series figure is available online now for MSRP–and even if you’re just buying it for the Lizard BAF tail, you may be surprised how much you like it too…
