It turns out that that old saying, “You don’t know what you got till it’s gone” is true. Because although the Hot Toys Cosbaby series of figures has never been a breakout success in the United States, now that we haven’t gotten any of the figures in the U.S. anymore, Hot Toys is doing their best work ever with Cosbabies in 2016.
And now we can add three more versions of this year’s hottest character to the list: five more Hot Toys Deadpool Cosbaby figures have been revealed!

Last month, Gentle Giant Ltd. revealed their fourth Skottie Young Marvel Babies statue–Spider-Gwen–and the hype generated put that of all the other statues in the Marvel Animated line to shame.
I thought there was nothing Gentle Giant could do to top their Skottie Young Spider-Gwen, but they had a major ace up their sleeves: the Skottie Young Deadpool Marvel Animated Statue is now up for order!

Last month, Mezco took the Marvel collecting world by storm when they debuted the first three characters in their Marvel ONE:12 Collective figures line: Captain America, Daredevil and Punisher! Having seen those figures in-person at Toy Fair, they just may have stolen the show. And though it’ll be months before those figures arrive in our hands, Mezco is at it again with sneak peeks of the Mezco Deadpool, Red Skull and Spider-Man ONE:12 Collective figures!

It’s been a while since I’ve made a post about new Funko POP Vinyls exclusives, but the king of exclusives is back at it again! And this time, we’re getting a “Superior Spider-Man” POP Vinyl and a trio of Rainbow Deadpool figures based off of the “Deadpool Mercs for Money”!
All four are going to be exclusive to Hot Topic (with the Deadpools available online Wednesday night 3/9), but are these variants all that they’re cracked up to be…?

Look out, Kotobukiya–you’re about to have some stiff competition stateside from Diamond Select Toys! One of the displays I was most surprised to see at New York Toy Fair 2016 last week was a quartet of additions to the recently-announced line of DST Marvel Gallery Statues including Deadpool, Hulk and Spider-Man!
Beautifully sculpted and economically priced at under $45, this line has “winner” written all over it…

Among their many, many skills, I think we can add “mind-reading” to Funko’s resume. Because they totally have to have mastered that ability and reached into my mind, as they’ve somehow chosen the exact three Marvel characters I would have picked for their newest line.
Debuting at New York Toy Fair 2016 last weekend: Funko POP Plush Spider-Gwen, Loki and Deadpool plushies!

With all of the excitement surrounding New York Toy Fair 2016, it totally slipped my mind that the Funko Marvel Collector Corps Deadpool box was arriving this week! But there it was this afternoon, just hanging out on my front step welcome mat!

The question I’ve gotten with more frequency during the first 42 days of 2016 has been, without a doubt, “When are we going to see the 2016 Marvel Legends X-Men Series figures revealed?”
My go-to answer to that question has been “New York Toy Fair 2016”, but Hasbro has thrown us a curveball tonight with a surprise pre-Toy Fair reveal: the immensely-anticipated new Marvel Legends Deadpool figure!

Before we get to the New York Toy Fair 2016 in less than a week (I’m so gonna get run over by a taxi cab), there was a little (huge) show in Japan this weekend called Winter WonderFest 2016 where loads of import Marvel figures were announced. There’s a lot to talk about, but let’s start with one of the cutest toy lines in existence: the Good Smile Company showed off Avengers: Age of Ultron Captain America, Iron Man and Deadpool Nendoroids figures! And they also brought a new Figma: Deadpool!

I’m already heavily invested in several Marvel vinyl figure lines (primarily Funko POP Vinyls, Hikari, Dorbz and Disney Vinylmation), so I’ve tried to steer clear of buying many of the Hot Toys Cosbaby Marvel figures.
But, well, sometimes there’s a release that’s just plain irresistible, and the newest addition to the line fits that bill to a ‘D’: the Hot Toys Deadpool Cosbaby figure goes up for order this week!

They say that life is cyclical–and it looks like Funko POP! Vinyl collecting may be too! One of my big regrets as a Funko collector is that I never picked up the exclusive yellow-orange Deadpool POP Vinyl that was released a few years ago, and which now sells for well over $100 on the aftermarket. But in their benevolence, Funko is giving collectors another chance at this popular colorway–and Wade’s brought a Peggy Carter variant with him! The online exclusive Funko Yellow Deadpool & Sepia Agent Carter are now up for order!

Is the most high-end Wade Wilson action figure ever made worth a purchase? Let’s take a look… [Spoilers: He is.]

As I was out on the prowl at my local Target yesterday, I noticed that they had an entire end cap set up for Funko products that isn’t usually there.
That end cap was unfortunately cleaned out but for three plain Netflix Daredevil POP Vinyls, but others were luckier than I, as the fully-stocked display includes several as-yet unannounced Funko Deadpool, Daredevil and Punisher toys…
