Marvel Legends Deadpool Series Released Overseas!

Marvel Legends 2018 Cable Figure Packaged

Although 2018 kicked off with the surprisingly outstanding Marvel Legends Black Panther series, it’s otherwise been a bit of a slow start for Marvel Legends 2018. We won’t see most of this year’s new figures revealed until New York Toy Fair 2018 next month, and we’re still waiting for the Lizard and Sasquatch series to go up for order domestically. But internationally, the Marvel Legends Deadpool series was just released this week—including a mass-release X-Force Deadpool Hasbro hasn’t officially announced yet!

ONE12 Collective Homemade Suit Spider-Man Movie Figure

Last week, Mezco Toyz showed off a teaser of some of their New York Toy Fair 2018 ONE:12 Collective figure reveals. Of the darkened silhouettes on that teaser, there was one Marvel figure so obvious that it didn’t take a Spider-Sense to pick him out, and today it’s official: the Mezco ONE:12 Collective Homemade Suit Spider-Man figure has now been revealed!

Gwenpool Medicom MAFEX Six inch Figure Scared

Medicom dropped the jaws of Marvel collectors around the world earlier this winter, when they revealed that their first-ever Marvel comics-based MAFEX figure was going to be none other than… the Unbelievable Gwenpool?! (Yup—that is pretty unbelievable!) I really thought Medicom might backtrack and actually start their new Marvel MAFEX line with a different character, but now it’s official that she’s kicking off the line: the Marvel MAFEX Gwenpool 6” figure is now up for order!

Ultimate Deadpool Figure NECA Unmasked 18 Inch

NECA had one of their biggest grand slams ever when they released their 18” Deadpool figure last winter. So much so, in fact, that after recently releasing an X-Force variant, they’re ready to complete the hat trick just one year after the original DP’s release! But this time out, the big attraction isn’t a different costume: the NECA Ultimate Deadpool 18” Figure is now up for order—and it comes with a veritable cornucopia of crazy accessories!

Marvel Select Star-Lord & Rocket Raccoon Review

There’s one more recent Marvel Select release from Diamond Select Toys that I’ve been dying to talk about, and with the usual weekend news drought, now seems like the perfect time to do so. The Marvel Select Drax movie figure had a multitude of features that held it back, but this other GOTG Vol. 2 two-pack is a totally different story. Is the Marvel Select Star-Lord & Rocket Raccoon two-Pack worth your 23 bucks, or are you better off sticking with the Legends versions?

Diamond Select Toys Savage Land Rogue Figure Close-Up

Diamond Select Toys’ Marvel Gallery statues line exploded in 2017, with both the number of value-priced statues available and the line’s maistream profile growing exponentially. But one thing the line was lacking—with two key exceptions—was representation for the X-Men. But the DST Old Man Logan and Phoenix figures won’t have to be lonely for much longer—the 2018 Marvel Gallery Savage Land Rogue Statue has now been revealed!

Close-Up of Sideshow Magneto Premium Format Figure Head

Sideshow Collectibles debuted two major 1/4 Marvel statues at San Diego Comic Con 2017 last July. One was the Wolverine Premium Format Figure that many fans are calling the best statue of the character ever, and the other went back in for further development.

Close-Up of Invincible Iron Man Marvel Legends 2018 Figure

When the first-ever Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel Legends series came out in 2014, many fans were surprised to see a comics-based Iron Man in the series. As a proven seller, a new Iron Man seemed like a surefire seller for the series. Well, another Marvel franchise is getting its first movie, and Tony Stark is back again! The Black Panther Marvel Legends Invincible Iron Man figure has been selling for inflated prices and is the surprise hot figure in the wave—is this figure as good as its sales have been?

Marvel Legends Sentinel 2018 Box

We’ve got just over a month until New York Toy Fair 2018, but already, it looks like perhaps the (literal) biggest Marvel Legends surprise for the show has been spoiled by a most unlikely source: Toys R Us! In an online video posted on Twitter on the most recent Fan Vault Friday, Toys R Us revealed a never-before-seen Marvel Legends box set which may or may not end up being an exclusive: the 2018 Marvel Legends Sentinel & Days of Future Past Wolverine figures set!

REVIEW: Marvel Select Spider-Man Homecoming Figure

Posted on by January 13, 2018
Marvel Select Homecoming Spider-Man Review

I felt pretty bad kicking off the week by having to strike down the Marvel Select Drax movie figure (which I genuinely did want to love), so I thought today I’d move another DST figure to the top of the review queue—this time, one I had a much better feeling about! We’ve gotten plenty of Spider-Man Homecoming Tech Suit Spidey figures from various companies—but are any as good as the under $25 Marvel Select Homecoming Spider-Man figure?

Luke Cage Kotobukiya ARTFX+ Statue

Way back in October 2017, Kotobukiya launched their new comic-based Defenders ARTFX+ statue line with two flavors of Daredevil. We’ve been waiting ever since for the next addition to roll out, and with surprisingly little fanfare, the time has come! The Kotobukiya Luke Cage ARTFX+ Statue is now up for order… but is it up to snuff in value and aesthetic compared to past Marvel ARTFX+?

Kotobukiya Black Panther ARTFX Statue Movie

It’s mostly been an uneventful start to 2018, as manufacturers seem to be saving most of their big reveals for next month’s New York Toy Fair 2018. But one branch of merch that literally cannot wait is the various Black Panther movie collectibles, as the movie debuts a day before the 2018 Toy Fair begins! We’ve seen most companies’ wares for the movie by now, but Kotobukiya just played their own card: the Kotobukiya ARTFX Black Panther movie statue is now up for order!

REVIEW: Marvel Select Drax & Baby Groot Movie Figures GOTG 2

Posted on by January 9, 2018
Marvel Select Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Drax Review Baby Groot

Diamond Select Toys only releases around a dozen total Marvel Select action figures per year, so ordinarily they put their best foot forward and seldom disappoint. But to my dismay, one of the first releases of 2018 looked like it was going to be a rare misfire based off of the final packaged photos. My Marvel Select Drax and Baby Groot Figures I ordered online finally arrived this week—were my fears for naught, or is the DST Drax ultimately a letdown?

Hot Toys Life Size Baby Groot Figure Review & Photos

Posted on by January 8, 2018
Guardians of the Galaxy 2 Hot Toys Baby Groot Figure Posing

When Baby Groot danced into our hearts at the end of the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie, collectibles companies were caught off-guard and needed quite a few months to catch up. History did not repeat itself with GOTG Vol. 2, as virtually every company was ready to strike with their own little Groot! I genuinely thought maybe the only high-end version I needed was the Sideshow maquette, but now that the Hot Toys Life-Size Groot figure has begun shipping, I realize I was lying to myself…
