Captain Marvel Legends 6″ Figures Series Unboxing & Impressions!

Posted on by January 3, 2019
Marvel Legends Captain Marvel Movie Figures Unboxing

Way, way back in September 2018, Amazon shocked the Marvel collecting world when they put up super-early pre-orders for half of the Captain Marvel Legends figures series, including Carol Danvers herself, Starforce Commander (Yon-Rogg), young Nick Fury, and Talos the Skrull Commander. I put my POs in for all those figures four months ago and then put them on the back-burner in my mind, knowing they’d show up in early 2019. And lo and behold–they have arrived! I’ll post full reviews of them in the coming days, but here’s my unboxing photos and first impressions…

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Scarlet Spider 6″ Figure (SP//DR Series) 

Posted on by December 30, 2018
Close-Up of Marvel Legends Scarlet Spider Kaine Figure SPDR Series

Considering the fact that the 2013 Scarlet Spider Marvel Legends figure has been in the header for this site ever since I opened it over half a decade ago, I don’t think anyone will be stunned to learn that I’m a big Kaine Parker fan. While that ML Rocket Raccoon Series figure is a bit dated by today’s standards, I loved (and still do love) it. But time has marched forward, action figures have advanced, and it was time for a new version of Kaine to be released. The Marvel Legends SP//DR Series Scarlet Spider figure is already selling out and escalating in price: is it worth upgrading before it’s too late?

Marvel Legends X-23 Wolverine Figure Review (Deadpool Sauron Series)

Posted on by December 21, 2018
X-23 Wolverine Marvel Legends Figure vs. Omega Red

Earlier this year, Hasbro gave 6” figure collectors their very first dose of a modern X-23 Marvel Legends figure in the Deadpool Sasquatch Series with X-Force X-23. I was taken off-guard by how much I liked that figure, primarily because of its awesome head sculpt. But a few months later, Hasbro hit Laura Kinney fans up again with the version of the character everyone had been waiting for: the Marvel Legends X-23 Wolverine figure! Though she’s hard to find in some areas, you can get ML X-23 Wolverine online for MSRP without a fuss—should you?

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Omega Red Figure (Deadpool Sauron Series)

Posted on by December 16, 2018
Marvel Legends Omega Red Review

While I initially thought that there might not be enough marketable related characters to produce a second wave of Deadpool Legends, Hasbro drew from a much deeper well and used the Sauron Series to give us an assortment that’s more of a pseudo second X-Men wave for the year than anything else. And one of its highlights is an X-Men villain we haven’t seen in 6” form in 13 years! Marvel Legends Omega Red is available now online for above retail price: should you replace your Toybiz version with this one?

Though it came in totally under the radar for some folks, the last Marvel movie of 2018 is officially out this weekend—Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse! No, it’s not part of the MCU—but believe it or not, it just might be as good as any MCU movie this year! And to celebrate the film’s launch, I’ve got a Review for a figure I’ve been holding off on for just this occasion. It’s the final BAF I hadn’t reviewed yet from 2018: Marvel Legends SP//DR Build-A-Figure! You can get SP//DR for 40 bucks completed on ebay–is it worth it?

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Cloak & Dagger Figures (SP//DR Series)

Marvel Legends Cloak and Dagger Review 6" Figures 2018

The clock is ticking on getting reviews for 2018 Marvel Legends figures posted in their “birth” year, so today I’m doing a two-for-one special with my Marvel Legends Cloak and Dagger Review! When it comes to the upper-echelon of Marvel supporting characters who have never been able to support their own series long-term, Cloak and Dagger have to be considered near the very top of that list. As you might expect, these are two separate figures you’ll have to buy individually. Are ML Cloak & Dagger worth the 35-40 bucks?

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Typhoid Mary Figure (Venom Series)

Posted on by November 16, 2018
Venom Legends Typhoid Mary Figure Close-Up

With somewhere between a month and a month and a half before the 2019 Marvel Legends Black Panther M’Baku Series starts appearing, we’ve got a bit of time to wait before we’re likely to see more Hasbro ML news. But hey, it’s not a total loss, as I still have plenty of review-less 2018 figures to cover! The Venom Legends series has been almost a unilateral win across the board so far, but there’s one figure left to review: Marvel Legends Typhoid Mary is already selling for below retail price, but that doesn’t mean she’s not a solid figure…

2019 Marvel Legends Avengers 4 Series Photos

Today is likely to forevermore be the saddest day in the history of Marvel, as the iconic genius Stan Lee has left us. It’s a loss we’ll all be feeling for years, but I think also an ideal time to look ahead to the future of the company that Stan Lee made a legend (and vice versa). And what better series to look at than what’s been announced for the 2019 Marvel Legends Avengers 4 Figures lineup, an assortment running the gamut of comic book characters from Stan’s early days through characters from the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe movies…
