Marvel Legends 2024 Astonishing Wolverine and Superior Spiderman Figures

Hasbro brought their A-game to this week’s new Hasbro Pulse Marvel Legends stream of figure reveals, but the most immediate ones were for figures semi-confirmed by leaked prototypes that surfaced over the last few weeks. There was quite a bit of buzz surrounding those leaks, but now fans can lock in their reservations and pine away for the actual products: Marvel Legends Superior Spider-Man and Astonishing X-Men Wolverine are now up for order!

REVIEW: X-Men 97 JEAN GREY Marvel Legends Figure

Posted on by April 12, 2024
X-Men Legends 97 Wave 2 Cyclops and Jean Grey Action Figures

X-Men ‘97 is a smash hit, and Hasbro’s excellent tie-in toy line is enjoying massive success as well. As such, I’m continuing along with my series of 6” Marvel legends X-Men 97 figures with a key member of the team. We’ve had several previous Hasbro action figures of her in 90s Jim Lee costume, but is the new X-Men 97 Legends Jean Grey figure the definitive version of the character?

REVIEW: Marvel Legends X-Men 97 CYCLOPS Figure (Hasbro Wave 2)

Posted on by April 4, 2024
Angry Head Optic Blast Cyclops X-Men 97 Hasbro Action Figure

Way back in my 2017 review, I thought the X-Men Legends Cyclops figure in the Warlock Series was acceptable, despite its flaws, because we were in the middle of a Jim Lee Cyclops famine. In 2024, not so much. We’ve seen numerous representations of Cyke in this costume in the interim, but as far as Hasbro 6” figures go, the newly-released X-Men 97 Marvel Legends Cyclops easily takes the crown as the best Jim Lee Cyclops figure ever made…

X-Men 97 ,arvel Legends Goblin Queen vs Jean Grey Hasbro 6" Figures

In a world where we have Hasbro X-Men Legends figures of Pretty Boy, Vertigo and Skullbuster, it’s really quite astonishing that one the greatest female X-villains of all time has never had a toy… until now. After fans’ hopes were dashed by the failed Ghost Rider Haslab, Cyclops’ first wife is finally here: the X-Men 97 Wave 2 Marvel Legends Goblin Queen Madelyne Pryor figure is now starting to arrive!

Review Marvel Legends X-Men 97 X-Cutioner Figure

When you’re bringing a toy of a relativrly unknown character to retail stores, said toy needs to be really cool to earn buys and avoid rotting off the shelves (or worse, ending up at Ollie’s). Hasbro delivered such a figure with Crystar earlier this year, and (spoilers for the rest of this review) they do so again with this terrific X-Men 97 Marvel Legends X-Cutioner figure that’s shipping out this month as part of wave 2 of the line. Here’s my review…

Sideshow Spider-Man and Dazzler Premium Format Figures

I have highly limited space left in my displays for huge statues at this point, and even less space in my wallet for them. But I’m always watching for new characters I don’t have a statue of and bold takes on ones I do. So far this month, Sideshow has both! A new 1/4 Spider-Man Premium Format Figure and the first-ever 1/4 Dazzler Premium Format Figure are now up for order! Are they worth a look, lofty price tags and all?

2024 Marvel Legends X-Men Lady Mandarin Psylocke & Wolverine Figures Up for Order!

Posted on by January 11, 2024
Marvel Legends Wolverine Lady Mandarin Psylocke Figures Box

“Wild and crazy” as descriptors of what happened to Psylocke in the last years of Chris Claremont’s legendary run on Uncanny X-Men. After being reborn, mind wiped, ethnically changed and soul swapped, Betsy briefly became the Mandarin’s assassin, Lady Mandarin. (I swear it reads better than it summarizes.) As Lady Mandarin, Psylocke battled Wolverine (in his “ninja” attire), until Logan defeated Psylocke and restored her free will. And now, thanks to Hasbro, fans will be able to recreate this landmark battle: the Marvel Legends Lady Mandarin Psylocke & Ninja Wolverine figures two-pack is now up for order!

LEGO Marvel 2024 Sets Released & Photos! X-Men Jet! Rocket Raccoon & Groot!

LEGO Marvel 2024 Sets Released Sandman Battle X-Men Jet Rocket Raccoon Groot

LEGO Marvel sets have certainly fallen a tad in popularity and sales at mass retail over the last few years, with fewer major widely-distributed sets arriving in the biannual drops and more expensive sets (like last year’s $500 Avengers Tower) being released solely as more limited exclusives. But that doesn’t mean The LEGO Group (TLG) is throwing in the towel! In fact, the January 2024 LEGO Marvel sets that have just been released include 3 major sets including a brick-built Rocket Raccoon, X-Men Blackbird Jet and Spider-Man No Way Home Sandman Final Battle!
