Spider-Man Marvel Legends Variants Will Be Released!

Amazing Spider-Man Marvel Legends Toxin Figure Variant

Prepare yourselves well for what is a true shocker, Marvel collectors. The end times may truly be upon us.

The portent of this impending doom…? Hasbro is actually going to be releasing some of their notorious-for-never-coming-out Marvel Legends variant figures. Ebay listings have turned up for the Spider-Man Marvel Legends Boomerang, Toxin and Spider-Girl figures, confirming that these figures are in fact currently in production and should be released in a few months time…

Marvel Legends 2014 SDCC 2014 Exclusives Original X-Men Revealed?!

Marvel Legends 2014 Original X-Men SDCC 2014 Exclusives Set

In what has to be one of the most bizarrely early possible reveals in ages, a leaked image has started making the rounds online of what some believe to be the Hasbro Marvel Legends 2014 SDCC exclusive set. Yes, that San Diego Comic Con 2014–the one that’s more than six months out from now. It seems way too early for a reveal of this nature, but here’s our first look at the alleged SDCC 2014 Marvel Legends Original X-Men boxset! Whether it’s legit or not remains to be seem…

Captain America The Winter Soldier Marvel Legends Figures Photos!

Captain America The Winter Soldier Marvel Legends Black Widow Figure Packaged

The K-Mart website is one of my favorite sources for obtaining early images of new LEGO sets for my LEGO blog, so them posting new toy photos early (and often before they’re allowed to do so) is nothing new. What is a bit of a switch is that this time, they’ve gone ahead and posted the first official packaged images of the 2014 Captain America: The Winter Soldier Marvel Legends movie figures!

We saw all three figures previously at SDCC 2013, but Hasbro has updated the figures and added a few unexpected surprises…

2014 Marvel Legends Captain America WWII Figure Revealed!

2014 Marvel Legends Captain America Infinite Series WWII Captain America

With the Captain America Marvel Legends 2014 Infinite Series scheduled to hit stores next month, I figured it was only a matter of time until the Hong Kong scrappers inevitably got some of the figures to shill online early. I wasn’t disappointed.

Thanks to a series of online ebay auctions, we can now get out first look at production samples of the Captain America Marvel Legends Infinite Series WWII Captain America and the rest of the first wave…

Captain America Marvel Legends 2014 Case Ratios & Pre-Order!

Marvel Legends Infinite Series Marvel NOW Captain America Figure Packaged

Earlier tonight I posted the assortment and case ratios for the Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Legends Infinite Series, but that’s not the only series of Marvel Legends 2014 figures to have its pre-order info revealed tonight! Though the case-pack turns out to be a tad less enticing than that of the Marvel Legends 2014 Spider-Man set, the Captain America Marvel Legends Infinite Series Wave 1 is also now up for pre-order! I hope you all like Cap, though–because there’s plenty of him in the case…

Spider-Man Marvel Legends 2014 Wave 1 Case Ratios & Pre-Order!

Superior Spider-Man Marvel Legends 2014 Figure Packaged

When I saw the packaging revealed for the 2014 Marvel Legends Infinite Series Spider-Man series, I had my suspicions that the other shoe was about to drop in the form of a price increase for Hasbro Marvel Legends next year.

I didn’t have to wait long for my suspicions to pan out–BigBadToyStore has put Spider-Man Marvel Legends 2014 series 1 up for order, and has also confirmed the price increase and case ratios for next year’s Marvel Legends figures…

Marvel Legends Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figures Packaging 2014

Hasbro Marvel Legends collectors got something to be thankful for a day late this year, in the form of loads of new information regarding the 2014 Marvel Legends Amazing Spider-Man 2 figures! Thanks to some leaks from Asia, not only do we get our first look at the packaging for the Amazing Spider-Man 2 Marvel Legends, but we get a glimpse at what just may be the two remaining variant figures from the line: Marvel Legends Toxin and Spider-Girl!

Marvel Legends Running Change Figure Variants Still Not Scheduled

Marvel Legends Blade the Vampire Hunter Variant Running Change Figure Packaged

Yesterday we got the unfortunate news that the last two Marvel Universe Team Pack three-packs were officially cancelled by Hasbro. Not to pile on all the bad news at once, I decided to hold off for a day before spreading a bit more gloom. Remember all those Marvel Legends running changes we’ve been waiting for (some of which for over a year), like the Marvel Legends Dani Moonstar and Red Deadpool variants?

Well, apparently, Hasbro still hasn’t found any way of releasing those figures…

Wolverine Legends Puck Series Figures Released w/ Emma Frost!

Hasbro Wolverine Legends Series Puck Build A Figure Released

Slowly but surely, the last 2013 Hasbro Marvel figures are finding their way to retail! Though the Wolverine Legends Puck Series of Marvel Legends 6″ figures missed the theatrical release of “The Wolverine” movie by two months, this series of Wolverine Marvel Legends figures never really had anything to do with the movie to begin with (other than the fact that Wolverine stars in both). Instead, this 6″ Wolverine Legends action figure series features some of the most-wanted Hasbro 6″ figures, including Emma Frost. Unfortunately, if you want these figures–particularly Emma–it’s going to cost you…

NYCC 2013: Captain America Marvel Legends 2014 Infinite Series!

2014 Captain America Marvel Legends Mandroid Build-A-Figure

While Hasbro brought a decent number of new figures to their NYCC 2013 press event to reveal for their 2014 Marvel Legends Spider-Man and Amazing Spider-Man action figure lines, the amount of new product they had to show for next year’s Captain America push was comparatively low. Even so, there was some neat stuff to be had, such as newly-announced figures for the Marvel Legends Captain America Infinite Series 2014–including the Mandroid Build-A-Figure!

Spider-Man Marvel Legends 2014 Figures Revealed at NYCC 2013!

2014 Spider-Man Legends Carnage Figure Marvel Legends Infinite Series

I wasn’t expecting a whole lot of news to come out from the NYCC 2013 Hasbro Press Event (after all, if there’s a lot of new product to show, why not have a panel at New York Comic Con itself or at least an exhibitor’s booth set up?). To my surprise, Hasbro debuted a significant number of never-seen-before Hasbro Marvel figures, including a series that just may be my favorite 6″ line of next year.

Coming in Spring 2014–the Spider-Man Marvel Legends Infinite Series 6″ figures!

New York Comic Con 2013: No Hasbro Marvel Action Figures Panel

A lot of fans who attended this year’s Hasbro Marvel action figures panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2013 were pretty disappointed in the feel of the panel and number of reveals contained within. Well, as big of a let down as that SDCC Marvel Toys panel may have been, it’s not nearly as big a bummer as the Hasbro Marvel panel at New York Comic Con 2013–because it appears that there isn’t going to be a panel for attendees at all…

Marvel Legends Hawkeye Figure (Modern Variant) Review Wave 5 2013

2013 Marvel Legends Modern Hawkeye Variant Firing Bow

Over the course of the last month, I’ve talked about the highs of Marvel Legends Wave 6 (Black Panther and The Wrecker) and the lows of the set (like Jim Lee Jean Grey) in my series of Marvel Legends 2013 figure reviews. So it seems pretty fitting that I end the series of reviews with the figure from the set that’s the most in the middle of the road as neither especially good nor particularly bad. Though he’s not the version most collectors wanted to see first, it’s the Marvel NOW! Marvel Legends Hawkeye figure!

Marvel Legends Jean Grey (Jim Lee 90’s Variant Figure) Review

Marvel Legends Jean Grey 90s Jim Lee Variant Action Figure

When Hasbro announced the return of Marvel Legends figures, there was perhaps no character I heard more requests (and begging) for than a 90’s style Jim Lee Jean Grey figure.

Well, it’s taken until Wave 5, but the Marvel Legends Jean Grey Jim Lee variant has arrived! Unfortunately, even if expectations hadn’t been so sky-high for this figure, I still think that poor Jean would be considered a disappointment…

Marvel Legends Gold Ultron Figure with Marvel Unlimited Plus Kit

We’ve been wondering for months how to get our hands on the Age of Ultron Marvel Legends Gold Ultron action figure that leaked out in the summer, and now we don’t have to wonder anymore. The 6″ Marvel Legends Ultron (Gold) figure is “free” with purchase of the new Marvel Unlimited Plus digital comics subscription! But be prepared for sticker shock–this subscription is rather pricey…
