REVIEW: Marvel Legends Leader (2020 Avengers GamerVerse Abomination Series)

Marvel Legends The Leader Review Hasbro 2020 Avengers

This year’s sole wave of Avengers Legends is a real anomaly in the modern era of Hasbro Marvel Legends in that, well… I don’t particularly want half the figures in the wave (including the Build-A-Figure!). Maybe I’ll turn around completely once the Square-Enix Avengers video game hits, but for the moment, this GamerVerse Marvel Legends Abomination Series is leaving me cold. Luckily, half the wave is composed of comic book characters, including the subject of today’s review: is it worth following The Leader Marvel Legends figure all the way to checkout?

Marvel Select Thanos & Planet Hulk Figure Reissues Up for Order!

Marvel Select Planet Hulk and Modern Thanos Infinity Figure Rereleases

Earlier this weekend, I discussed the two brand new items in the latest round of Marvel Diamond Select Toys solicitations—but that pairing isn’t all that DST has up their sleeves! While we haven’t seen an actual new Marvel Select figure announced since movie Taskmaster at the start of the year (a new one is expected to be revealed next week, though), Diamond has two mass re-releases of previously hard-to-get exclusive figures: Marvel Select Planet Hulk & Modern Thanos figures are now up for order!

Gamestop Exclusive Marvel Legends Outback Hulk Figure Up for Order!

Exclusive Marvel Legends Outback Hulk Figure Packaged

With arguably the biggest Hasbro event of the entire year just days away, I didn’t anticipate we’d be seeing anything new up for pre-order in the next few days. But hey–what do I know, right?! And so, Hasbro officially announced and began allowing pre-orders today for the latest GameStop Exclusive: the GamerVerse Marvel Legends Outback Hulk figure is now available exclusively in bundles with the upcoming PS4/Xbox One Avengers game! I was planning on a different version of the video game, so looks like I’m double-dipping…

REVIEW: Marvel Legends She-Hulk Figure (Fantastic Four Super Skrull Series)

She-Hulk Marvel Legends Fantastic Four Series Figure vs The Thing

While I’ve already previously reviewed the whole new Marvel Legends Fantastic Four team and Doctor Doom figures, there’s still one more single-packed figure left to review from the wave—who, coincidentally, is perhaps the most controversial and least-hyped figure in the Super Skrull series! Succumbing to her rage and PTSD, modern Grey She-Hulk is now available as a Marvel Legends figure for the very first time! This take on Shulkie wasn’t exactly a major hit with comic book fans—but that doesn’t mean her action figure will necessarily share the same fate…

ML 80th Anniversary Deadpool & Grey Hulk

UPDATE 10/24/2019: After being briefly available on Amazon and selling out in an hour yesterday, collectors who weren’t quick enough to secure the former convention exclusive have got another chance–the Marvel Legends Grey Hulk 80th Anniversary figure is back up for order online now! And this time, he’s not the only new exclusive on the block–for the first time ever in the US after being revealed during NYCC, the Marvel Legends Vintage Deadpool figure is up for order as well!

NYCC: Diamond Select Vision Black Panther Hellcat & Hulk Statues!

Diamond Select Marvel Statues Vision Black Panther Hulk Hellcat NYCC 2019

Just when I thought I’d already posted and talked about every new Marvel collectible I saw at New York Comic Con 2019 earlier this month, I scrolled through my camera roll and discovered I’d never talked about not one, not two, not three, but four new class comic book-based Diamond Select Toys Marvel statues! (That’s four times as many Marvel statue debuts at the show than any other company!) So without further ado, let’s check out DST’s new takes on Hellcat, Hulk, Black Panther and Vision…

Hot Toys Endgame Thor & Hulk 1/6 Figures Photos & Order Info!

Hot Toys Endgame Thor and Hulk Figures

In the build-up to San Diego Comic Con 2019 in July, Hot Toys posted some very obvious teasers for what are the two biggest omissions from their Avengers Endgame MMS 1/6 figure lineup: Endgame (Fat) Thor and (Professor) Hulk. Hot Toys pulled the rug out from under us by actually not displaying either of those at SDCC 2019, but as we venture further into fall, they’re finally ready to play their two biggest remaining cards: the Hot Toys Endgame Thor and Hulk figures are now up for order!

NYCC 2019 Diamond Select Marvel Busts: Wolverine! Rocket Raccoon!

Diamond Select Toys has carved out a nice little niche for themselves as purveyors of low-priced half-scale busts over the last year, with an ever-increasing variety of limited 1:2 Legends in 3D busts arriving in the market. The headlining sub-series … Continue Reading →

REVIEW: SDCC 2019 Marvel Legends Exclusive Hulk Vintage Figure!

Review Marvel Legends Hulk Vintage Figure SDCC 2019 Exclusive

Batted down the hatches, because San Diego Comic Con 2019–and the onslaught of new Marvel toys revealed there each year—are now just days away! But aside from a plethora of new action figures being announced, Hasbro also has three exclusive Marvel figures for the show. The SDCC 2019 Exclusive Marvel Legends Vintage Hulk figure is already pre-selling for $70-$80 on the aftermarket, but is he worth that inflation? Well, Hasbro sent over an early sample for me to review, so let’s bust this monster open and find out…

Diamond Select Endgame Hulk Figure Ragnarok Hulk Bust

It’s not just a good week to be a Hulk collector—it’s a great week to be a Hulk Collector! Not only did we get the announcements of a Hasbro SDCC Exclusive and a US release for the Bandai SH Figuarts movie figure, but Diamond Select Toys is getting in on the love for the Jade Giant as well! Whether you’re an action figure or bust collector, DST has you covered with their newly-orderable Marvel Select Endgame Hulk (with Nano-Gauntlet!) and 1:2 Scale Ragnarok Bust!

SDCC 2019 Exclusive Marvel Legends Vintage Hulk Figure Revealed!

Marvel Legends SDCC 2019 Hulk Vintage Figure Packaged

We’ve all been waiting with bated breath to see what the Hasbro SDCC 2019 Exclusive Marvel Legends product would be this year—and, well… we don’t have to wait any more! For a nice change of pace with all the recent leaks, the San Diego Comic Con exclusive this year is something totally unexpected! For those who don’t like the exclusive two-pack Hulk with Wolverine, you’ve got another option: the SDCC Marvel Legends Vintage Hulk on Retro Toybiz-inspired cardback (with crushed pipe accessory)!

SH Figuarts Endgame Hulk Exclusive Figure US Release!

Avengers Endgame Hulk Bandai Japan Web Exclusive S.H. Figuarts Figure

For whatever reason, the Bandai Tamashii SH Figuarts Infinity War figures weren’t as big of a hit as expected domestically, with many of the figures still available a year after orders opened and some even after being discounted. Presumably because of this, we’ve seen a far narrower selection of the Endgame figures getting released in North America, and even seeming sure-things are remaining overseas exclusives. Even the Jade Giant isn’t immune to exclusivity, as he’s not getting a domestic release. But if you’ve got to have him, the SH Figuarts Endgame Hulk figure is up for order in the US on BBTS now…

Marvel Legends 80 Years Hulk & Wolverine Two-Pack Exclusive Pre-Order!

Marvel Legends 80th Anniversary Hulk vs Wolverine Figures

The new Marvel Legends 80 Years figure reveals and pre-orders over the past two weeks—Cowboy Wolverine and Big Time Spider-Man—have gotten a bit of a varied reaction from fans. But tonight, Hasbro has freshly solicited another item in the series—and I suspect this one will NOT be getting such a tepid response: the Marvel Legends Hulk vs. First Appearance Wolverine Two-Pack is now up for order!

Kotobukiya She-Hulk ARTFX Premier Statue Photos & Order Info!

Close-Up of Koto She-Hulk Premier ARTFX Statue

Kotobukiya’s Marvel ARTFX+ line of 1/10th scale PVC statues used to rule the land, but in a changing market with increased prices and much more competition, Koto has definitely stumbled a bit in recent times. They unveiled their new high-end line of plastic 1:10 Marvel ARTFX Premier statues at New York Toy Fair, but collector response has been lukewarm thus far. Can today’s solicitation of the 5th piece in the line buck the trend? The Kotobukiya She-Hulk ARTFX Premier Statue is now up for order!

Avengers Endgame Hot Toys Life-Size & 1:4 Nano-Gauntlet Replicas!

Hot Toys Life Size Nano Gauntlet Size Comparison Photo with Iron Man Figure

UPDATE: Well, here’s a crazy and welcome surprise! I thought Hot Toys was going to price it at a cool grand, but the Hot Toys Life-Size Nano Gauntlet is up for order for “only” 377 bucks! That’s less than half the price charged for Thanos’ Infinity Gauntlet last year! And the 1/4 Iron Man and Hulk versions are both under 150 each! I am shocked and very pleased with this pricing! Knowing how value-priced Hot Toys’ Life-Size Gauntlet is, are you in?
