Funko Marvel Mystery Minis Orange Deadpool Exclusive!

Toy Fair 2014 Funko Deadpool Mystery Minis Orange Variant

Of the hundreds of new products that I saw at the 2014 Toy Fair International, the most enigmatic one turned out to be one of the smallest. Within a couple seconds of walking into the Funko booth, I saw a couple orange Deadpool Mystery Minis variants on display. I asked two of the workers at the booth about this mysterious Funko orange Deadpool, but neither knew the details on it. I should have kept asking, though, because on this week’s Marvelicious Toys Podcast Issue 111, they spill the goods on exactly where this orange Deadpool may be exclusive to…

Hasbro Guardians of the Galaxy Figures 2-Packs – Toy Fair 2014

Posted on by February 26, 2014
Rocket Raccoon 2.5 Inch Figure Hasbro Guardians of the Galaxy

When Hasbro announced the lineup for the Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy figures assortment earlier this month, many collectors (including me) were bummed that the movie Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel Legends were limited to the five members of the team with zero villains or secondary characters. Well, Hasbro revealed a whole range of Guardians of the Galaxy 2.5″ figure two-packs at Toy Fair 2014 last week, and if you want villains and ancillary characters, you’re in luck! But if you want high-quality, well-articulated figures of those characters–then you may be out of luck…

Marvel Super Hero Mashers Series 3: Ghost Rider! Deadpool! Iceman!

Posted on by February 26, 2014
2014 Toy Fair Marvel Mashers Ghost Rider

Marvel Super Hero Mashers definitely are not my favorite action figure line of 2014. In general, they’re a bit too “kiddie” for me, and I wasn’t totally in love with the character selection for the first series. That said, Hasbro may have won me over–just a little bit–with their Toy Fair 2014 Marvel Super Hero Mashers Series 3 reveals. As if Hasbro went into my brain and pulled out four characters that would be ideal lures for me, at last week’s New York Toy Fair 2014 Hasbro debuted the Marvel Mashers Deadpool, Iceman, Red Hulk and Ghost Rider figures!

Toy Fair 2014: Funko Rocket Raccoon & Star Lord Wacky Wobblers!

Posted on by February 26, 2014
Funko Guardians of the Galaxy Rocket Raccoon Wacky Wobbler

I’m approaching the end of the photos I took in my one-day speed-run of Toy Fair 2014, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t take some time to discuss a couple items most collectors (besides me) aren’t going to care about too much: the Funko Guardians of the Galaxy and Amazing Spider-Man 2 Wacky Wobblers! Wacky Wobblers are infinitesimally less popular than their POP! Vinyls brethren, but I think the Funko Rocket Raccoon and Star Lord Wacky Wobblers are some of the best offerings Funko has ever come up with for the line…

Funko Unmasked Star Lord POP Vinyls Figure Revealed!

Funko Guardians of the Galaxy Box Back Unmasked Star Lord POP Vinyls Figure

Many companies brought half-finished packaging for their upcoming products to New York Toy Fair 2014, and some brought no packaging at all. But one company that brought the fully-designed, real deal to the show was Funko (along with about a million new figures)! Particularly nice is their Guardians of the Galaxy packaging, which looks quite different from the usual Funko Marvel packaging. And if you turned around the boxes on display, you got a special treat–the first look at an unannounced Unmasked Star Lord POP Vinyls figure!

Figma Avengers Thor, Iron Man, Captain America Photos & Details

Figma Avengers Iron Man Thor Captain America Figures

One of the few things that I was disappointed to see no-show last week’s New York Toy Fair 2014 was the longtime-coming Figma Avengers action figures. I thought these 1/12 scale figures might show up at the Good Smile booth, but no dice. But fear not, import figure fans! Fairly comprehensive photo previews of the Figma Avengers Thor, Captain America and Iron Man have started to appear in Japanese magazines, giving us our best look at the trio yet! Do they look good? Well, yes… and no…

Marvel Infinite Series 2 Whirlwind Figure Toy Fair 2014

Seeing as how the first wave of Hasbro Marvel Infinite Series 3 3/4″ action figures are almost ready to ship out and up till now we’d heard zippo from Hasbro about Wave 2, it didn’t take a zen master of collecting to know that the 2014 Marvel Universe Infinite Series 2 figures would be debuting at New York Toy Fair 2014 this weekend.

And as expected, they did–highlighted by the Marvel Infinite Series 2 Whirlwind, Death’s Head and Red She-Hulk action figures!

The Falcon Marvel Select Captain America The Winter Soldier Figure Close-Up

We’ve known for months now that Diamond Select Toys has a pair of Marvel Select Captain America The Winter Soldier figures scheduled to come out this spring. We’ve previously seen an image of the Marvel Select Stealth Captain America released online, and this week’s American International Toy Fair 2014 was the first chance to see Cap in person. But Stealth Cap didn’t come alone–at the New York 2014 this week, we also got to see the Marvel Select Falcon figure fly in for his grand debut!

Once the Spider-Man Marvel Legends variants started showing up, we knew it was only a matter of time until the second wave of Captain America Marvel Legends figures followed–and that time is now!

The Captain America Marvel Legends Winter Soldier movie figures have now been released in the United States!

Toy Fair 2014: ThreeA Dr. Doom 1/6 Figure Revealed & Photos!

Toy Fair 2014 ThreeA Dr. Doom 1/6 Figure Revealed

It was actually not until my third pass through the New York Toy Fair 2014 ThreeA Toys booth that I realized there was something new on display at the booth. While my eyes had been drawn to the four ThreeA Iron Man figures on display repeatedly, somehow I kept missing the figure standing immediately next to them. But sure enough, I eventually did open my eyes all the way and see the debuting prototype of the next addition to the line: the Marvel ThreeA Dr. Doom sixth scale figure!

Kotobukiya Rocket Raccoon & Groot ARTFX+ Statue Revealed!

Kotobukiya Rocket Raccoon and Groot ARTFX+ Statue

Sometimes you wake up in the morning and it is legitimately the perfect day. For me, this morning was one of those mornings. Not only did I wake up this morning to discover that the first Guardians of the Galaxy trailer had premiered overnight (an event which I knew about but somehow forgot to watch anyway), but then I logged onto my computer to discover a totally unexpected statue announcement–the Kotobukiya Guardians of the Galaxy Rocket Raccoon and Groot ArtFX+ Statue is now available for order!

Toy Fair 2014: MAFEX Amazing Spider-Man 2 DX Set Revealed!

Toy Fair 2014 Amazing Spider-Man 2 DX MAFEX Set Revealed

Of all the things that I was not expecting to see while wandering around the Diamond Comics Distribution booth’s display cases at this week’s New York Toy Fair 2014, a brand-new, unannounced deluxe MAFEX action figure set would have been near the top of the list. While we learned last month than MAFEX had a brand-new Amazing Spider-Man 2 movie figure on the way for later in 2014, what we didn’t know until Toy Fair 2014 is that they were also planning on releasing a special MAFEX Amazing Spider-Man 2 DX Set with a ton of accessories. Of course, the catch is that those accessories will cost you. A lot.

Funko POP Vinyls Rocket Raccoon and Groot Figures Toy Fair 2014

Photos of the Marvel Funko Guardians of the Galaxy POP! Vinyls Star Lord, Groot and Drax the Destroyer figure prototypes leaked onto the web a while ago, so we had some idea of what to expect when Funko did the grand New York Toy Fair 2014 Funko Guardians of the Galaxy POP Vinyls reveal. To keep things interesting, though, Funko had a couple surprises lined up beyond painted versions of the figures we’d already seen: brand-new, never-before-seen Funko Rocket Raccoon and Gamora POP! Vinyls figures!

LEGO 76022 X-Men vs The Sentinel Box and Storm Minifigure Toy Fair 2014

The existence of the LEGO Marvel 2014 set featuring a LEGO Sentinel, Blackbird jet, and minifigures of Storm, Wolverine, Cyclops and Magneto is one of LEGO’s worst-kept secrets. Images of prototypes of the set have been circulating for months on various sites (including here), so it was a veritable certainty that the set would be shown at the New York Toy Fair 2014 this weekend. It was. The LEGO X-Men vs. The Sentinel 76022 set is coming in summer 2014!
