Hasbro has been pretty on-the-ball with giving collectors pretty much every major Marvel Studios villain in 6” Marvel Legends form (sorry Malekith and Kaecillius—you don’t rate), so it wasn’t a big plot twist when they revealed we’d be getting a movie-based Marvel Legends Mysterio figure from Spider-Man Far From Home as well. Packed at just one-per-case, the new 2019 Marvel Legends Mysterio figure is already sold out on Amazon, still available for pre-order from other online retailers and likely to be a tough grab at retail.

With today being the first day of the final push that will push Avengers Endgame beyond Avatar as the worldwide all-time box office champ, you might be expecting to see some new Endgame product today. But Hasbro has thrown us a mega-curveball with something totally off the wall: the first new premium role-play item in quite a while! Coming our way from the Future Fight game, the EXCLUSIVE Marvel Legends Punisher War Machine Helmet replica is now up for order!
Continue Reading →Spider-Man Far From Home is now less than a week away from hitting theaters, so the time is right to discuss the final Marvel Cinematic Universe movie of Phase 3 (and 2019)! Rather than going the predictable route and kicking things off with Mysterio, instead I want to review a figure that’s gotten a bum rap up until now. The Marvel Legends Molten Man Build-A-Figure is selling surprisingly low on eBay as far as ML BAFs go, but is he high-quality enough to melt my cold heart in-hand?
Continue Reading →When Hasbro announced a singular Retro Marvel Legends Vintage Hulk figure as a San Diego Comic Con 2019 exclusive last week, pretty much every long-time Marvel Legends collector predicted we’d be seeing another offering before too long. And sure enough, we get to start off this week’s Marvel toy news with a second item for next month’s major event: the SDCC 2019 Exclusive Marvel Legends Collector & Grandmaster 6” figure two-pack has now been revealed!

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)!
Continue Reading →While they happen several times a year these days and we’ve all become acclimated to them, there was a time when Walgreens Exclusives were a new and revolutionary thing. The first one ever was the Marvel Legends Agent Venom that was confirmed almost half a decade ago now exactly, and as part of the 80th Anniversary Series, that legendary figure is getting a sequel: the Exclusive Marvel Legends Anti-Venom figure in white costume is now up for order!

Who’s still pumped for this 5-month late Carol Danvers? 😁
Continue Reading →Reports have been coming in from all over the country for the last few weeks of collectors finding and sometimes being denied the newest Target Exclusive Marvel Legends Spider-Man two-packs locally, but that’s changed over the course of the past week, as Target is now officially stocking and allowing sales of its latest Exclusives: the Kraven’s Last Hunt Two-Pack with Kraven & Symbiote Spidey and the Homecoming Two-Pack with MJ & Academic Decathalon Spidey!
Continue Reading →UPDATE 6/5/2019: It’s been close to two months since they started appearing in stores, so I was beginning to doubt we’d ever see this Walgreens Exclusive “Iron Doom” pop up online at all. But for those still looking for it, rejoice: the Walgreens Exclusive Marvel Legends Infamous Iron Man Doctor Doom figure is now up for order online! For those who already have their own: is this figure worth scooping up?
Continue Reading →UPDATE 6/3/2019: For those who were waiting for Amazon, they now have singles of the whole X-Force Marvel Legends Wendigo series up for order as well. If other sites are any indication, looks like Mr. Sinister will be the figure to sell out first in pre-orders!

And now that all spoiler embargos have been listed, the announcement has transpired—but in an unexpected way: the Walmart Exclusive Marvel Legends Endgame Captain America with Mjolnir figure has now been revealed!
Continue Reading →Wolverine is miles away from being one of my favorite Mutants, but he’s such a central figure on so many X-Men rosters across eras that I own dozens of figures of him. But one iteration I’ve managed to avoid owning (even in Funko Pop form!) is his original “origin” look. …At least, until now! I needed the last piece to build the Caliban Build-A-Figure, so I had to order the new Hasbro X-Men Marvel Legends Weapon X figure. But to my humongous surprise—I’m actually glad I had to buy this Wolverine…
Continue Reading →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!
Continue Reading →Hasbro has had far more hits than misses since the Return of Marvel Legends began in 2012, but occasionally there’s been a hiccup along the way. One of those snafus came in the Arnim Zola series, when the black Stealth Suit Spider-Man figure arrived and was, well… green.
