Marvel Legends Spider-Man No Way Home Series Figures Up for Order!

Marvel Legends Spider-Man No Way Home Series Movie Figures

Spider-Man No Way Home was clearly the MCU theatrical release star of the pandemic era, but the strict attempts to keep the movie’s secrets led to a dearth of toys and collectibles ready within a year of its 2021 release.

In fact, likely to the extreme surprise of anyone who hasn’t been avidly collecting for the past two years, no Hasbro Spider-Man No Way Home Marvel Legends action figures have made it to retail stores at all yet.

But the wait is over—Hasbro announced a six-figure blister carded wave of Spider-Man NWH Legends 6” figures today, along with previewing and teasing other additions to the lineup!

Up for P.O. now on EE are:
Sandman ► 
MJ (Mary Jane) in Civilian Clothes ► 
Matt Murdock ► 
Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man ► 
Amazing Spider-Man ► 
No Way Home Spider-Man ► 

Direct Pre-Order Links (Amazon):
Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man ►

LEGO Electro Minifigure Polybag Released in Stores!

Pile of LEGO Marvel Electro Minifigure Polybags

Way back in October 2014, LEGO shocked the Marvel collecting world with a totally random, out-of-left-field release of an Amazing Spider-Man 2 Electro minifigure polybag at the LEGO KidsFest event. Marvel collectors have been waiting with bated breath for details on when they could acquire the ASM2 Electro figure ever since. And at long last, more than half a year later, we know–the 5002125 Electro figure has now been released in stores!

Funko Hikari Distressed Spider-Man Vinyl Announced! LE 750!

Distressed Spider-Man Funko Hikari Figure Packaged

Up until now, I’ve had a futile hope that the Funko Hikari Spider-Man series of vinyl sofubi figures would be a finite collection, easily completed by purchasing the half-dozen Spider-Man Hikari figures that debuted at SDCC 2014. After all, all four of the Funko Spider-Man Hikaris that have been released/announced for purchase up until now have been ones that premiered at SDCC. Unfortunately for our shelf space and our wallets, the fifth Spidey was announced today, and it’s one we’ve never seen before–the Funko Hikari Distressed Spider-Man is now up for order!

Funko Hikari Metal Mix Spider-Man Vinyl Revealed!

Funko Hikari Metal Mix Spider-Man Vinyl Figure

If there’s one thing out there that adult collectors love, it’s nonsensical variants of main characters like Spider-Man and Batman (right…?). Funko already conquered Batman fans’ wallets with a double-digit number of Funko Hikari Batman vinyl figure variants, and now they’re preparing to unleash their fourth Funko Hikari Spider-Man!

The colors don’t make much sense canonically, but he’s limited to just 500 pieces worldwide–the Funko Hikari Metal Mix Spider-Man figure is now up for order!

Funko Dangerous Spider-Man Hikari Vinyl Figure Review & Photos

Dangerous Spider-Man Hikari Funko Vinyl Figure

If being a hardcore collector is akin to being an addict (and believe me, it sometimes feels like it is), then the latest form of “crack” to have me in its thralls is called “Funko Hikari”. The Japanese-inspired Funko Hikari Sofubi vinyl figures are way bigger and way more limited than Funko POP! Vinyls (with a way bigger price-tag to match). While Hikari only started to be released this summer, it’s definitely starting to catch on for Funko, and it’s about to become a whole lot more relevant for Marvel collectors, as the first Marvel Hikari was just released this month: Dangerous Spider-Man! Is this Spidey worth the “dangerous” investment he requires in both price and shelf space…?

Funko Hikari New Dimension Spider-Man Vinyl Revealed!

Funko Hikari New Dimension Spider-Man Figure LE 1500

Whenever there’s a slow Marvel toys news week, I know there’s one company I can count on almost without fail to give me something to talk about. And once again, Funko doesn’t disappoint me. Just one week after their LE 1000 Dangerous Spider-Man Hikari figure went up for order, another of the Funko Hikari Spider-Man vinyl figures has appeared for sale! For the moment you’ve got to order from Australia if you want this one, but I have a hunch that the Funko Hikari New Dimension Spider-Man vinyl figure will be making his American debut shortly…

Marvel Select Electro Figure Exclusive Up for Order!

Marvel Select Electro Figure Released

I spent the months leading up to this year’s Amazing Spider-Man 2 movie lamenting the fact that we were getting so few quality action figures for the movie–particularly in the form of a Marvel Select Amazing Spider-Man 2 Electro figure. But fate has smiled upon me–it turned out that I utterly hated Amazing Spider-Man 2 and wouldn’t want another toy of that movie Electro anyway. But what I would still want is a classic version of Electro, wearing my favorite green-and-yellow spiky mask. And what do you know? Diamond Select Toys read my mind–the Marvel Shop exclusive Marvel Select Electro figure has now been revealed and put up for order!

2014 Hallmark Ornaments Spider-Man & Captain America Released!

Hallmark Ornaments 2014 Amazing Spider-Man 2 Ornament Box

Husbands will get up to all sorts of mischief and debauchery while their wives are away. Me? I went to the Hallmark Ornament Premiere. Twice. I went out yesterday afternoon specifically to see if my nearest Hallmart store had put out their ornaments early so that I could photograph the Marvel and LEGO ornaments. And while the 2014 Hallmark Ornaments were out early, I totally forgot to look at the Marvel ones–instead, I bought the Jawa Sandcrawler and Cantina Band ornaments. And so, today I journeyed back to Hallmark to check out the Hallmark Captain America & Spider-Man ornaments…

June 2014 must just be a month for Marvel miracles!

Marvel Select Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figure Released

I’m pretty “with it” as far as getting my pre-orders in early goes, but occasionally something will slip through the cracks. Such was the case with the Marvel Select Amazing Spider-Man 2 Fireman Edition figure. This first release Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Select figure pre-sold out like lightning, so I told myself I didn’t need him in my collection. But today I found myself waiting outside my local comic book store as they opened, as today was the official release date for the Fireman Edition Marvel Select Amazing Spider-Man 2 figure…

Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Select Unmasked Spider-Man

While there’s still no Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Select Electro or Green Goblin forthcoming (nor are any expected to be), a new Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Select figure is now up for sale: Marvel Select Unmasked Spider-Man!

Marvel Legends Agent Venom Figure 2014 Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Legends

Asia is becoming quite the hot spot for Marvel Legends news!
