Nothing makes you feel old quite the same as realizing a comic book character who’s still “brand new” in your mind is actually 17 years old now. Such is the case with the deluxe Marvel Legends Skaar figure that’s up for pre-order today, exclusively via fan channel outlets (no Target or Walmart, sorry)! Hasbro released a Skaar figure before long, long ago—is it worth upgrading the Son of Hulk on your shelf to this modern iteration?

Marvel Legends 2024 has been a bit light on traditional Build-A-Figure waves, but Hasbro has kept collectors guessing with consistent new reveals and pre-orders nonetheless. This time up, we’ve got a 3-pack of updated villains, going up for sale after just being revealed yesterday: the Amazon Exclusive Marvel Legends Cabal set of Dr. Doom, Iron Patriot Norman Osborn and Taskmaster figures is now up for order!

“Slow and steady” wins the race, but I think it’s also an apt descriptor for how Hasbro has team built the Peter David 90s X-Factor team in 6” Marvel Legends form. It’s been 6 years since Marvel Legends Multiple Man kicked off this iteration of X-Factor in the Apocalypse Build-A-Figure Series, but Rahne Sinclair has at last arrived to complete the team. The just-released Marvel Legends Wolfsbane figure has just started shipping as part of the mixed characters Zabu BAF wave—should you snag this long-awaited Scottish werewolf to your collection? Here’s my review…

It’s that time of the month once again: as per usual, Diamond Select Toys has several all-new Marvel collectibles they’re debuting and immediately opening for pre-orders. There’s no Marvel Select or Marvel Gallery figure this month (a rarity), but we do get an all-new trio of resin sculptures: the Marvel Animated Deadpool Jumping statue and Moon Knight/Iron Spider mini busts are now up for order!

Hulkbuster Iron Man isn’t the raging craze that it was back in 2015, but it’s still a fan-favorite Iron Man armor permutation many fans get excited to see whenever it makes an appearance in Marvel media, or merchandising. And so, as part of their 85th Anniversary lineup, Hasbro is now turning their attention to a comics-based iteration of the armor that they’ve never captured before themselves: the deluxe 2024 Marvel Legends Hulkbuster Iron Man figure is now up for order!

Carnage has gotten quite a bit of love across collectibles and multimedia over the last several years, but there was one important toy “hole” that still needed to be filled. While Hot Toys and SH Figuarts put their Venom 2 versions up for sale long ago, Hasbro is finally ready to follow suit: the all-huge and all-new Let There Be Carnage Marvel Legends Carnage movie figure is finally up for order!

After a devastating crash-and-burn Haslab campaign, the Spirit of Vengeance is riding into Marvel Legends again! While our collections may be lacking Robbie Reyes now for all-time, the iconic 90s Ghost Rider, Danny Ketch, is back with an awesome updated figure and also a new ride: the Marvel Legends Danny Ketch Ghost Rider & Motorcycle set went up for sale today! Is this hotly-demanded set blazing into your collection, Marvel collectors?
In a world where Luke Cage and Iron Fist have both appeared in multiple major streaming series—and even each had their own individual ones—one might think we’d be swimming in action figures for these genuine Marvel legends. We are not. In fact, it’s been several years since any Iron Fist figure was available, and Hasbro has never released a non-exclusive modern Power Man figure at all. But as part of this year’s celebratory Marvel Legends 85th Anniversary Series, we’re getting updated figures of Luke Cage and Danny Rand, sold as a pair by Hasbro for the first time ever! Are these heroes worth hiring for -your-shelf? Let’s take a look…

Hasbro brought their A-game to this week’s new Hasbro Pulse Marvel Legends stream of figure reveals, but the most immediate ones were for figures semi-confirmed by leaked prototypes that surfaced over the last few weeks. There was quite a bit of buzz surrounding those leaks, but now fans can lock in their reservations and pine away for the actual products: Marvel Legends Superior Spider-Man and Astonishing X-Men Wolverine are now up for order!

X-Men ‘97 is a smash hit, and Hasbro’s excellent tie-in toy line is enjoying massive success as well. As such, I’m continuing along with my series of 6” Marvel legends X-Men 97 figures with a key member of the team. We’ve had several previous Hasbro action figures of her in 90s Jim Lee costume, but is the new X-Men 97 Legends Jean Grey figure the definitive version of the character?

The third time may be the charm for a lot of Marvel collectors, as the always-in-demand comic-based Marvel Legends Kingpin figure is now up for order and making his third Hasbro appearance in the last decade. The 2018 Kingpin Build-A-Figure was a hot commodity, and even the 2021 Spider-Man Retro Series version skyrocketed to sell for over twice its retail MSRP. But now new collectors and those who missed out get a fresh chance with the first-ever Marvel Legends Retro figure re-release! Who else would you like to see reissued, Marvel collectors?

Way back in my 2017 review, I thought the X-Men Legends Cyclops figure in the Warlock Series was acceptable, despite its flaws, because we were in the middle of a Jim Lee Cyclops famine. In 2024, not so much. We’ve seen numerous representations of Cyke in this costume in the interim, but as far as Hasbro 6” figures go, the newly-released X-Men 97 Marvel Legends Cyclops easily takes the crown as the best Jim Lee Cyclops figure ever made…

Marvel Legends Retro Series figures have been a huge hit with collectors, with releases from the X-Men to Spider-Man to the Fantastic Four to even Ghost Rider. With all that success with fans, it comes as no surprise that now Hasbro has opened orders for a full Marvel Legends Iron Man Retro Series, including She-Hulk, Count Nefaria, gold Original Iron Man and more!

Action figure collectors asking for troop builders never goes out of fashion, but said collectors also want named characters to accompany said troops. And so, following up on SHIELD army builder figures available over the past decade, Hasbro has now got a pack of the most legendary trio (or quartet) of SHIELD agents: the Marvel Legends SHIELD 3-Pack is now up for order, featuring Dum Dum Dugan, Sharon Carter, and both versions of Nick Fury!

March 2024 had rushed past, which means that another wave of new solicitations for Marvel collectibles is upon us from Diamond Select Toys. And with no New York Toy Fair last month, this time all of the newly revealed DST Marvel items are ones we had no idea were coming! Arriving later this year, the Marvel Select War Machine, Animated Daredevil Bust, MCU Black Widow bust and the first-ever Weapon H Hulk statue are all up for order now!
