Cyclops X-Factor Marvel Legends Nemesis Series Figure REVIEW (Hasbro 2025)

Marvel Legends 2025 Cyclops X-Factor X-Men Legends Figure Review

X-Men fans aren’t exactly starving for a new Scott Summers Marvel Legends action figure—Hasbro has made sure Cyclops fans have been eating good these last few years. And after releasing Cyclops in his familiar blue and white X-Factor costume in 2019, Hasbro is back at it again with the blue and yellow Cyclops right off the cover of the first-ever X-Factor #1! Is this X-Men Legends 2025 figure worth picking up even if you’re not building the “Nemesis” Build-A-Figure? Here’s my review…

REVIEW: Marvel Legends NEMESIS Build-A-Figure (2025 X-Men Genocide Series)

Posted on by April 28, 2025
Close-Up of Marvel Legends Genocide BAF Build-A-Figure 2025 Hasbro

Any way you slice it, the Build-A-Figure of the 2025 X-Men Marvel Legends wave is definitely a weird one. Hasbro is calling this 616 character [Genocide] “Nemesis”, even though they already assigned that name previously to another totally different Apocalypse-related character [Age of Apocalypse Holocaust] that just so happens to look like 616’s Genocide. This is further confusing by two AOA characters being in this series (including one who crossed into the 616). Got all that? Okay, here’s my review of the new Marvel Legends Nemesis/Genocide BAF…

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Age of Apocalypse Gambit (2025 X-Men Nemesis Series)

Marvel Legends AOA Gambit Figure Review Hasbro 2025

X-Men Age of Apocalypse is one of my favorite comic book stories of all-time and Gambit is among my favorite X-Men characters ever, so it stands to reason the new X-Men Marvel Legends Age of Apocalypse figure that just started shipping should be one of my favorite action figures, right? To my surprise, I instead feel rather ambivalent toward Hasbro’s X-Men Legends AOA Gambit. Here’s my review…

REVIEW: X-Men Marvel Legends MARROW Figure (2025 Nemesis Series)

Posted on by April 2, 2025
REVIEW Marvel Legends Marrow X-Men Nemesis Series Figure

Marrow is a character I never expected to own a toy of again after I had her Toybiz Generation X figure in 1996. But Hasbro is plowing through the Marvel half of the various Marvel vs. Capcom rosters, and the bone-wielding Morlock is the latest to benefit from the fighting video game to 6” figure spotlight! The 2025 X-Men Marvel Legends Marrow figure is shipping now as part of the Nemesis (Genocide) Series—is this unlikely figure a worthy one to add to your collection?

2025 Marvel Legends X-Force Archangel X-23 Warpath Figures

Hasbro’s marketing team set expectations for this weekend’s New York Toy Fair by saying there would only be a couple new Marvel Legends reveals, and they stayed true to their word. But what reveals they were! Along with the life size Doctor Doom helmet replica (that I’ll talk about tomorrow), they announced a long-demanded updated figure to launch alongside the previously-revealed X-Force Warpath and X-23: the deluxe Marvel Legends X-Force Archangel is now up for order! Let’s have a look…

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Phoenix Deluxe 2024 X-Men Figure

Posted on by November 19, 2024
Review Marvel Legends Phoenix Action Figure

Phoenix is one of the most iconic women in comic book history, so it’s no surprise that she’s frequently being revisited for action figures, movies, statues, toys and more. When Hasbro released a new X-Men Legends Dark Phoenix last year, it was a certainty we’d see green (good) Phoenix sooner than later. But what fans may not have anticipated was this fancy deluxe release! The Marvel Legends Phoenix deluxe figure retails for just under 50 bucks and is shipping now—is this Jean worth half a Ben Franklin? Here’s my review…

Marvel Legends 2025 Figures Revealed: Dark Ms. Marvel Warbird! Fabian Cortez! Spot!

Marvel Legends 2025 Reveals Fabian Cortex Spot Dark Ms Marvel Warbird

The march to the new year is officially on, and as we enter the home stretch, Hasbro is continuing to tease collectors with more Marvel Legends 2025 figures coming our way this winter. Last week, they quietly announced the Marvel Legends Moonstone (Dark Ms. Marvel/Warbird), giving fans the first-ever 6” figure of super-villain Karla Soren in her Dark Avengers costume. And at this week’s Lucca 2024 event in Italy, two more surprises were revealed: Marvel Legends Fabian Cortez (of X-Men fame) and a powered-up version of The Spot from last year’s Across the Spider-Verse movie!

Marvel Select Deadpool & Wolverine Figure! Carnage X! Animated Green Goblin & Magneto Busts!

Posted on by October 25, 2024
Diamond Select Toys Marvel Select Wolverine Movie Figure Carnage X Magneto Green Goblin Busts

Diamond Select Toys brought a smaller than usual assemblage of new Marvel collectibles to New York Comic Con 2024, so I was a mite worried we wouldn’t get a good round of DST solicitations this month. Luckily, that’s not the case, as we’re getting a highly-demanded movie Select figure, two new shots at animated busts of top villains and a reissue of a store exclusive: Marvel Select Deadpool vs Wolverine Wolverine, Carnage X and busts of Green Goblin and unhelmeted Magneto are now up for order!

NYCC 2024: Marvel Legends Sentinel (X-Men 97) 22″ Figure Revealed & Up for Order!

2025 Marvel Legends Sentinels Figures Hasbro Pulse Exclusive NYCC 2024

New York Comic Con is not the mecca for toy reveals that it once was, but we haven’t reached a day where collectibles companies are just ignoring it either. And so, while Hasbro didn’t exactly bring out the big guns for their Marvel Legends showing at NYCC 2024, they did bring a solitary BIG gun. Many collectors have been lamenting missing out on the Haslab Sentinel since its 2021 campaign, but now they’ll get another chance at a fresh version of the mutant-hunting machines: the X-Men 97 Marvel Legends Sentinel is now up for order! Will you assemble any of these raucous robots on your shelves?

Marvel Legends Bloodstorm Figure Review

If you put Bloodstorm on your 2024 Marvel Legends Bingo board, you deserve to give yourself a monstrous pat on the back right now. Vampire Storm is a character I’m quite fond of, but never thought I’d see the day she’d be on my shelf in plastic form. But against the odds Marvel Legends Bloodstorm is real and now shipping out; here’s my review of whether you should own Hasbro’s blood-sucking Ororo Monroe…

Marvel Legends Professor X & Green Goblin Hasbro Reissues

Hasbro has been taking the slow and steady approach throughout 2024, giving Marvel Legends collectors a few little treats each month, rather than hammering fans with wave after wave of figures as in past years. But speaking of past years, this week’s offerings are a blast from the past, bringing back two of the most popular ML of the last half decade: reissues of the X-Men Legends Professor X in Hoverchair and Spider-Man Legends Retro Green Goblin are now up for order!

Marvel Legends Phoenix & Magik Figures Up for Order!

Marvel Legends Phoenix & Magik 2024 Hasbro Figures

It’s been a pretty good year for the Phoenix entity, first getting an origin in the X-Men comics and then the first-ever ongoing Phoenix ongoing comic book series launching this week. But that’s not the only Jean Grey milestone this week! For the first time in many years, Hasbro has a new (not Dark) Marvel Legends Phoenix figure up for order—and it’s a deluxe release with a huge fiery Phoenix Force entity effect base! It’s a bit on the pricey side, but there’s no denying how lovely it is! Will this be flying into your display, Marvel collectors? (Plus: the Demon Sorceress Magik teleports in for a return of her own!)

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Astonishing X-Men Wolverine Figure (85th Anniversary)

Posted on by July 15, 2024
Marvel Legends Size Scale Comparison Astonishing Wolverine and Cyclops

There’s no doubt that Joss Whedon’s Astonishing X-Men comic books run was a watershed moment for the merry mutants, and John Cassaday’s costume designs for the x-Men have had enduring popularity as a result. So even though Toybiz released a very nice Astonishing Wolverine in 2005, it’s no shocker to see Hasbro upgrading that iteration of Logan in the 85th Anniversary Marvel Legends series during Wolverine’s own 50th anniversary. The 2024 Marvel Legends Astonishing X-Men Wolverine figure is starting to ship now—is this the ultimate release of this version?
