Amazing Spider-Man 2 Wearing Fireman Hat Marvel Select Figure

Diamond Select Toys confirmed last week that an Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Select Figure was on the way, and this week they’ve released their first photos of the upcoming Marvel Select Amazing Spider-Man 2 action figure!

While it seems very unlikely based on what we’ve heard that there will be any super-villains released for Amazing Spider-Man 2 in the Marvel Select line, at least we’ll have Spider-Man wearing a fireman hat! The Marvel Select Amazing Spider-Man 2 figure is now up for pre-order!

Medicom MAFEX Amazing Spider-Man 2 Photos & Impressions

MAFEX Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figure Poster Medicom 2014

If you have no clue what the heck “MAFEX” is, I’ll forgive you. See, Medicom just launched the Japananese MAFEX (Miracle Action Figure EX) line of action figures in Spring 2013, and there have only been two releases in the line thus far (MAFEX #1 Amazing Spider-Man and MAFEX #2 Batman). MAFEX #3 is set to arrive a full year after its predecessors, and, well… it’s Spider-Man again. But as far as Amazing Spider-Man 2 action figures go, this MAFEX Amazing Spider-Man 2 figure is looking pretty decent… but maybe not decent enough for its price-tag…

Marvel Select Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figure Confirmed; No Villains?

Amazing Spider-Man 2 Electro Poster

Whenever Art Asylum posts a new Marvel-centric ASK DST Q&A, it’s one of the high points of each month for me (no, really–my life is pretty dull). Diamond Select Toys is one of the most open and fan-friendly toy companies out there, and they go out of their way to answer each and every question collectors ask of them. There’s almost always at least some worthwhile tidbit contained within the Q&A, and in the latest one, we finally got confirmation of a Marvel Select Amazing Spider-Man 2 figure–as well as confirmation of who won’t be getting a Marvel Select action figure…

Funko Amazing Spider-Man 2 POP Vinyls Photos & Impressions!

Posted on by January 9, 2014
Funko POP Vinyls Amazing Spider-Man 2 Electro and Spider-Man Figures

The Funko juggernaut can’t be stopped, and today Funko officially opened pre-orders and sent out the first images of the fully-painted Spider-Man and Electro Amazing Spider-Man 2 POP Vinyls figures!

While I don’t think this duo of POP! Vinyls figures can compete with the coolness of the Guardians of the Galaxy and Winter Soldier vinyl figures we’ve seen prototypes of the past few days, I figure at least one of these two figures is a “must buy” (and I imagine you all can guess which one)…

Amazing Spider-Man 2 Electro 3 3/4" Marvel Universe Figure

While the Hasbro Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Legends 6″ figures that just hit stores in the last week or have been hogging all of the headlines, those aren’t the only mass-release Amazing Spider-Man 2 action figures Hasbro has lined up for us!

Just released in stores, we also have the 4″ Amazing Spider-Man 2 figures, including movie Electro and such uh, “creative” concepts as “Blitz Board Spider-Man”, “Slash Gauntlet Spider-Man” and more!

Amazing Spider-Man Marvel Legends Toxin Figure Variant

Prepare yourselves well for what is a true shocker, Marvel collectors. The end times may truly be upon us.

The portent of this impending doom…? Hasbro is actually going to be releasing some of their notorious-for-never-coming-out Marvel Legends variant figures. Ebay listings have turned up for the Spider-Man Marvel Legends Boomerang, Toxin and Spider-Girl figures, confirming that these figures are in fact currently in production and should be released in a few months time…

Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Minimates Wave 56 Figures Announced!

Amazing Spider-Man 2 Official Movie Poster

I can’t remember the last time that a Marvel movie came and went in theaters without a corresponding set of Marvel Minimates movie figures released, so it wasn’t unexpected when pre-orders opened today confirming the themed Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Minimates Wave 56 set!

Diamond Select Toys is giving us a larger selection of characters for ASM2 than any other company, although the characters may not be the most exciting ones ever…

Marvel Funko POP Vinyls Electro & Winter Soldier Prototypes!

Marvel Funko POP Vinyls Electro and The Winter Soldier

Given the sheer number of prototypes and announcements coming out of Funko the last few weeks (everything from Walking Dead to Game of Thrones to Finding Nemo), it was only a matter of time until Funko got around to showing off some new Marvel Funko POP! Vinyls for 2014!

We almost always get a couple of new Marvel movie Funko POP Vinyls, so it’s no surprise that Funko Electro and The Winter Soldier POP Vinyls are now on the way…

LEGO Marvel 2014 Spider-Trike vs. Electro Set Photos & Preview

LEGO Marvel Superheroes Spider-Trike vs. Electro 76014 Box

I started off coverage of the LEGO Marvel 2014 sets by discussing the largest set coming this winter, and now it’s time to take a look at the smallest set. While you might think at a glance that this set is an actual LEGO Amazing Spider-Man 2 set, it’s actually not quite what it appears to be.

Coming later this winter, it’s the Spider-Man LEGO Spider-Trike vs. Electro 76014!

Amazing-Spider Man 2 Movie Trailer Thoughts & Impressions

Amazing Spider-Man 2 Rhino Movie Poster

It’s not Marvel toy news and I’m no movie critic (I leave that to the experts over at Now Playing podcast), but a couple people wanted to know my thoughts on the first full-length the Amazing Spider-Man 2 trailer that was released yesterday.

There will be loads of Amazing Spider-Man 2 toys to talk about next year, so I’m going to squeeze this into the “related content” category and give my quick initial impressions of the 2014 Amazing Spider-Man 2 movie trailer…

Spider-Man Marvel Legends 2014 Wave 1 Case Ratios & Pre-Order!

Posted on by December 1, 2013
Superior Spider-Man Marvel Legends 2014 Figure Packaged

When I saw the packaging revealed for the 2014 Marvel Legends Infinite Series Spider-Man series, I had my suspicions that the other shoe was about to drop in the form of a price increase for Hasbro Marvel Legends next year.

I didn’t have to wait long for my suspicions to pan out–BigBadToyStore has put Spider-Man Marvel Legends 2014 series 1 up for order, and has also confirmed the price increase and case ratios for next year’s Marvel Legends figures…

Marvel Legends Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figures Packaging 2014

Hasbro Marvel Legends collectors got something to be thankful for a day late this year, in the form of loads of new information regarding the 2014 Marvel Legends Amazing Spider-Man 2 figures! Thanks to some leaks from Asia, not only do we get our first look at the packaging for the Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Legends, but we get a glimpse at what just may be the two remaining variant figures from the line: Marvel Legends Toxin and Spider-Girl!

Hot Toys Amazing Spider-Man Figure MMS 179 Released & Photos!

Hot Toys Amazing Spider-Man Unboxing MMS 179

The bad news is that I have now lost a bet and owe a friend five bucks. The good news is that the bet that I lost was my guess that the Hot Toys Amazing Spider-Man Movie Masterpiece Series figure would be delayed into 2014! After countless delays and the figure not even being shown at San Diego Comic Con 2013, I thought it was very possible the Amazing Spider-Man Hot Toys figure would fail to make it out before the end of 2013. But I was wrong–it’s taken quite a while, but the Hot Toys Amazing Spider-Man MMS 179 figure has now been released overseas!

Spider-Man Marvel Legends 2014 Figures Revealed at NYCC 2013!

Posted on by October 10, 2013
2014 Spider-Man Legends Carnage Figure Marvel Legends Infinite Series

I wasn’t expecting a whole lot of news to come out from the NYCC 2013 Hasbro Press Event (after all, if there’s a lot of new product to show, why not have a panel at New York Comic Con itself or at least an exhibitor’s booth set up?). To my surprise, Hasbro debuted a significant number of never-seen-before Hasbro Marvel figures, including a series that just may be my favorite 6″ line of next year.

Coming in Spring 2014–the Spider-Man Marvel Legends Infinite Series 6″ figures!
