Earlier this week, Mezco Toyz threw Marvel collectors a curveball when they announced and opened up pre-orders for not one, not two, but three Previews Exclusive ONE:12 Collective Marvel figures! While the trio of PX exclusive figures went up for order earlier this week with only low-res photos available, Mezco has now unleashed glorious glam shots of Black Costume Spider-Man, X-Force Deadpool and X-Force Wolverine!

Even though Hasbro started shipping the 2017 Marvel Legends GOTG and Doctor Strange two-packs months ago, I’ve yet to see a single one of those 3 3/4″ packs in a brick-and-mortar store. So with that in mind, I was a bit dubious as to whether or not this year’s new Marvel Legends Spider-Man Homecoming two-packs would ever actually appear before me at a retail store, or if I’d have to go shopping online for them. But that question was answered for me today, when both the Vulture and Shocker packs appeared before me!

They say that the third time is a charm, but in this case, it’s actually the fourth time that’s charmed! Collectors have been asking for a super-articulated 6″ Marvel Legends Beetle figure for well over a decade now, and after the weird robot Beetle released by Toybiz and the female and Ultimate Beetle figures released by Hasbro, finally he has arrived: the Spider-Man Homecoming Marvel Legends Beetle figure is now available online, and is the classic Beetle fans have been demanding!

Some pretty bizarre things have happened to Peter Parker over the years, including growing six arms and also turning into an anthropomorphic Man-Spider (both in the same story!). But one of the absolute most wildly unexpected occurrences has to be when Spider-Man gained the semi-phenomenal cosmic powers of Captain Universe! And now, Spidey’s most powerful form is immortalized forever as a 6″ figure–the Hasbro Marvel Legends Cosmic Spider-Man figure is now available!

With the new Marvel Legends Spider-Man Homecoming Wave and Vulture two-pack appearing out of nowhere and Black Panther and Invisible Woman still MIA, I’ve given up guessing when and where new Hasbro Marvel Legends 6″ figures will be released. But one set that we don’t have to guess about is the Toys R Us exclusive Marvel Legends Mary Jane & Spider-Man two-pack, which has now been released overseas! Let’s check out the in-hand photos…

At this point, there aren’t too many Spider-Man villains that have never had an official 6″ Marvel Legends figure released at least once. But one character that’s been overlooked–at least until now–is the albino mob enforcer, Tombstone. Lonnie Lincoln is finally getting his due from Hasbro, and while his costume might not be everyone’s first choice, the Marvel Legends Tombstone figure that went up for sale last week is really pretty killer…

I am not a gamblin’ man, so I was not altogether thrilled when I had to roll the dice and hope for the best when Amazon created a listing for a new movie Homecoming Spider-Man Marvel Legends figure with an incorrect old stock photo on Friday. Thankfully, not only did my hunch that this was a new figure pay off–it turned out that instead of the old Amazing Spider-Man 2 figure incorrectly pictured, it was actually my most-wanted figure in the wave: the 6″ Marvel Legends Homemade Suit Spider-Man figure!

UPDATE 4/8/2017: We weren’t absolutely sure until it happened, but the Bandai S.H. Figuarts Spider-Man Homecoming figure is now up for order in the U.S.! And better still, we’ve got two different options for ordering him! Along with the $65 and free shipping Japanese versions at that link, Bluefin Distribution will also be distributing a U.S. Exclusive version of Homecoming Spidey with a “Tamashii Option Act Wall”… for $35 more. Which option (if either) are you opting for, Marvel collectors?

Say what you will about Spider-Man’s most popular villain, but no one can call him under merchandised, that’s for sure. In just the past year, Venom has gotten two Marvel Legends action figures and high-end statues from Sideshow Collectibles, XM Studios, Prime 1 Studio and Gentle Giant Ltd. And now, we can add one more piece to the growing list–the Kotobukiya Venom ARTFX+ statue is now up for order!

Way back before Christmas, when I walked into a GameStop store and unexpectedly found an unannounced X-Force Deadpool Marvel Gallery statue, I knew I was going to have to keep a close eye on GameStop for future unannounced exclusives. And sure enough, I spotted one at the local ThinkGeek store last week–just days before it was officially announced by Diamond Select Toys! Keep your eyes peeled, because the Marvel Gallery Symbiote Spider-Man statue is now arriving!
