Before the MCU absolutely exploded into the cinematic juggernaut it would be at its peak, Sony debuted Andrew Garfield as their new Amazing Spider-Man. The Andrew era’s first starring villain was The Lizard, who received a Walmart Exclusive figure in the latter half of 2012. Movie Lizard has been absent in Hasbro form ever since, but after a decade, that’s about to change: the No Way Home Marvel Legends Lizard Amazon Exclusive figure is now up for order!

2025 is coming in fast, and at last week’s year-end Marvel Legends livestream the Hasbro Marvel team showed that they’re ready to ring in the new year in a big way! Two full waves of Marvel Legends 2025 figures debuted on the stream, alongside a multitude of upcoming exclusives. First, let’s take a look at the 2025 Spider-Man Marvel Legends Retro series headlined by Kaine and Chameleon that just went up for order…

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…

Having owned a copious number of Toybiz Marvel figures as a kid in the 90s makes me exactly the demographic that MONDO is targeting with their popular Marvel 1/6 figure lines. They’ve successfully sold me a half-dozen-plus X-Men 92 figures, and now they’ve moved on to the Spider-Verse: the 1/6 MONDO Spider-Man Animated Series Spidey and Venom figures are currently up for order!

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!

Hasbro is now in the midst of their annual fall world tour of rationing out new reveals, nibbles at a time. And after their huge premiere of the X-Men 97 Marvel Legends Sentinel at NYCC 2024, they moved on to giving MCU fans a treat over the weekend. After just debuting at Comic Con MCM London, the Captain America Brave New World Marvel Legends Red Hulk, Falcon and Cap go up for order today!

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!

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?

Quicksilver truly must be the fastest mutant in the Marvel Universe, as Walmart put their new exclusive Marvel Legends Green Quicksilver action figure up for order Thursday, he arrived in most collectors’ hands on Friday (including mine), and now my review of Pietro is speeding in as well! It’s the first new 6” green Quicksilver figure from Hasbro in 18 years. Should you race to add this green Quicksilver Legends figure to your display?

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…

I think it really says something about the Marvel Legends Strange Tales Series that I could reasonably see any of the characters in the wave coming with a severed demon head. But it’s not just anyone that comes with the Marvel Legends Blackheart Build-A-Figure head—it’s the new Moon Knight in his 80s white and gold costume! We’ve had comic book styled Moon Knight Legends figures before—does this one have enough new features to be worth adding to your collection? Here’s my review…

Diamond Select Toys doesn’t always hit a home run with their value-priced line of Marvel Gallery PVC statues (my mind is still boggled by that white-eyed Gambit from the start of 2024), but when they do good, they do great. Such is the case with today’s review of my newest entry in that line: the Marvel Gallery Silver Surfer statue is cosmically cruising into homes now, and is one of my favorite additions to the lineup in quite some time…

The first time I saw Hellverine, I thought it was yet another half-assed entry in the continuing modern trend of mash-up characters. After reading Benjamin Percy’s comics about the Wolverine X Ghost Rider character, I was fully sold and ready for a toy. Luckily, I didn’t need to wait long: the Hasbro Marvel Legends Hellverine figure is now starting to ship as part of the Strange Tales Blackheart Series! Here’s my review of the first toy ever of the Weapon of Vengeance…

Hasbro knows right where to hit old-timers like me with the nostalgic feels.

One of the surprise headlines from Hasbro this year was that there would be no 2024 Marvel Legends Haslab crowdfunding campaign. But that’s not to say collectors won’t be getting a preorder for another immense Marvel character to add to their shelves: the Hasbro Pulse exclusive Marvel Legends Dragon Man figure is now up for order! At 10” tall and over 17” wide, Dragon Man is a humongous anthropomorphic dragon boy—will you be adding him to your collection?
