Doctor Strange has never exactly been a household name, but Disney and Marvel are planning to change that in a big way with this fall’s major movie starring the Sorcerer Supreme. And what better way to make a character feel legit than by giving him his own series of Marvel Legends figures, right? The Marvel Legends Doctor Strange Series is shipping out during the next two weeks, and today let’s take a look at the center pieces of the wave: the 6″ Doctor Strange movie figures!

The holiday season is approaching, the clock is ticking down on 2016, and collectors are getting restless to complete their 2016 collections!

Another box has come and gone, and now it’s time to look ahead to the Funko Marvel Collector Corps Doctor Strange box that’s now up for order! As a character that’s never gotten a ton of merch, I’m definitely anticipating this subscription box’s arrival in October 2016. What do I think will be inside? Read on…

While we saw well over a dozen new Marvel Legends 2017 figures at San Diego Comic-Con last month (some of which may arrive at the end of 2016), there’s still one full series of official 2016 figures on the way: the Marvel Legends Doctor Strange movie series! I posted packaged photos of Enchantress and Astral Dr. Strange yesterday, but now let’s take a look at the rest of the Dormammu Build-A-Figure wave in hi-res photos glory…

Last week when I reviewed the SDCC 2016 Marvel Legends Enchantress figure, I bemoaned the fact that the anticipated and oft-rumored single-packaged Enchantress figure wasn’t announced for the Marvel Legends Doctor Strange Series during the show. Well, it looks like we just had to be patient and wait for all of those box sets to be sold, because hot on the heels of The Raft selling out online, Enchantress and Astral Form Doctor Strange Marvel Legends figures have been revealed!

While Hasbro has spoiled Marvel Legends collectors with new figures released every month this year, LEGO collectors have it rougher, with only two full waves of LEGO Marvel sets being released per year. The Winter sets were focused on Captain America Civil War, but the LEGO Marvel Summer 2016 sets came available for sale online and in stores this month and include a variety of Spider-Man sets, as well as exclusive Civil War and Doctor Strange movie sets!

The Doctor Strange movie is launching in November 2016, which places it further out in the year than any MCU film ever. As a result, it seems like we’ve been waiting eternity for the Sorcerer Supreme to arrive… but now the wait is down to three months!
And while Hasbro is shying away from releasing many Doctor Strange movie toys, Funko is not–a multitude of Funko Doctor Strange POP Vinyls and Dorbz figures are now up for order!

While their awe-inspiring sixth scale Giant-Man diorama was plainly available to be photographed for the world to see yesterday during the setup for ACGHK 2016, there was one item Hot Toys was literally hiding until the start of the show!
He was obscured via being covered with a mystic sheet of cloth yesterday, but no longer: the Hot Toys Doctor Strange sixth scale figure has now been revealed!

Hasbro hit home run after home run today with their SDCC 2016 reveals, but there’s one Marvel Legends 6″ figure wave that’s not getting quite as much love as the others. Hasbro unveiled the second half of their Doctor Strange Marvel Legends series today, with movie and comic-based Doctor Strange figures and the first-ever major Mordo figure! Does this wave deserve more fanfare than it’s gotten so far?

Just like last year, this year’s major Avengers-centric Marvel Cinematic Universe film is being followed up by a movie debuting a Marvel character that’s a little less popular in mainstream culture than Captain America, Iron Man and Spider-Man. So yeah, in case you didn’t hear–a Doctor Strange movie is coming our way this November. And that means we’ll be seeing more Doctor Strange toys released than ever before, including these entries just revealed by Diamond Select Toys: the Marvel Gallery Doctor Strange Statue and Dr. Strange Minimiates are now up for order!
Continue Reading →It’s taken a lot longer than I expected for the first image of the LEGO Marvel Doctor Strange set to appear. While the set was shown at the UK Toy Fair in January (with photography forbidden), the Sorcerer Supreme was absent entirely at the New York Toy Fair 2016 in February. But it was only a matter of time until the Master of Mysticism made his brick-form presence felt, and the LEGO Doctor Strange 76060 movie set has now been revealed!
UPDATE: Images have been removed from the site as per the request of The LEGO Group.

Though we’re still in the first half of 2016, we already know the identities of all but 2-3 of the mass release Marvel Select 2016 figures. One of those mystery figures is a female who’s not X-related and not Scarlet Witch, while another figure was just revealed (sort of) this week: the Marvel Select Doctor Strange Movie figure is now up for order! But to know exactly what he looks like (I mean, besides looking like Benedict Cumberbatch), we’re gonna have to wait a while longer…

When Funko only brought hand-painted samples of half of this year’s wave of comic-based Marvel POP Vinyls figures to New York Toy Fair last month–and just concept artwork of the other half–I figured we were probably several months away from seeing this new assortment of Marvel POPs placed up for grabs. Turns out that’s not quite the case! Not only were these 2016 Funko Marvel POP Vinyls announced officially this week–Spider-Gwen, She-Hulk, Doctor Strange and more are now up for order on Amazon!

With a blockbuster MCU movie due out this fall and his first ongoing Marvel comic book series in eons heating up, 2016 is the year of Doctor Strange! The 7″ Diamond Select Toys figure I ordered at my comic shop ended up getting cancelled for some reason, but it turns out fate was interceding on my behalf–I ended up getting the Marvel Select Doctor Strange discounted to $20 shipped online! At the same price as a Marvel Legends figure, I was anticipating being blown away. And with a few provisos, I am…
