Last week I talked about the new VS Series of PVCs with thematically matching bases, but that’s not all the Marvel Gallery goodness that Diamond Select Toys had to show off at New York Toy Fair 2020! Alongside the new Marvel Gallery Agent Venom and Rocket Raccoon statues that launched Toy Fair week, there were an additional half-dozen new traditional PVC statues shown– including a new Spider-Gwen, Storm, Taskmaster, Bishop, Nova and more!

I haven’t even finished up my coverage of the 2020 New York Toy Fair mega-show that occurred just over a week ago, but Hasbro is already at it again with an all-new figure up for pre-order that wasn’t even announced at Toy Fair! If you missed out on last year’s blue Beast or were disappointed he came without a friendlier alternate head (or other accessories), then this may be for you: the Retro X-Men Marvel Legends Grey Beast figure is now up for order!

One of my favorite booths to visit that I can count on to be at virtually every event that I attend is Diamond Select Toys. This year’s New York Toy Fair 2020 was no exception! Even though there were no new Marvel Select figures shown (aside from the PS4 Spider-Man packaging), DST brought the big game with so many Marvel Gallery figures that will be up for pre-order this year, I can’t fit them all in one article! So I’ll split it in two, and start by looking at the new Marvel Gallery VS statue PVCs, including Wasp, Vision, Wolverine, classic Iron Man and more…

I’m back from New York City, so now it’s time to start digging deep with my Toy Fair 2020 coverage! While I talked about and gave impressions of the Avengers and X-Men Legends waves that launched for pre-orders over the weekend, Hasbro brought plenty more goodness to show at the event–including long-awaited Marvel Legends Nimrod and Old Man Logan figures, along with Old Man Hawkeye, new versions of Rogue and Storm, and more!

While there were a “few” leaks prior to New York Toy Fair 2020 that threw a monkey wrench into some of Hasbro’s big announcements at the show, Hasbro was still able to surprise fans with a multitude of totally unexpected reveals—including new releases for movies fans haven’t seen toys for in close to two decades! Going up for order later this year, it’s Marvel Legends X-Men and Deadpool figures based on the FOX movies! Professor X, Wolverine, Mystique, Magneto, Cable and more! And did someone say: “pinless joints”?!

Even though the full lineup of single-packed 2020 Marvel Legends X-Men Age of Apocalypse figures has been known since last fall, Hasbro has kept a tight lid on the identity of the Sugar Man Build-A-Figure for months so that a grandiose reveal could occur… the night before Toy Fair 2020 on the Walmart website. Whoops!! But regardless, the time has come for Marvel Legends Age of Apocalypse pre-orders! Solo links for every figure are below:

Marvel Zombies fans went through a long dark age for merchandise where no Marvel heroes were allowed to be made into toys and collectibles anymore (although villains were okay).

I fully expected we’d be seeing the usual teases of what’s to come in the form of some Day-Before-Toy Fair Marvel Legends 2020 reveals, and Hasbro did not disappoint today with a whole load of new official images and information! … Continue Reading →
With arguably the biggest Hasbro event of the entire year just days away, I didn’t anticipate we’d be seeing anything new up for pre-order in the next few days. But hey–what do I know, right?! And so, Hasbro officially announced and began allowing pre-orders today for the latest GameStop Exclusive: the GamerVerse Marvel Legends Outback Hulk figure is now available exclusively in bundles with the upcoming PS4/Xbox One Avengers game! I was planning on a different version of the video game, so looks like I’m double-dipping…

New York Toy Fair 2020 begins in just four days! While various leaks have already started popping up (like that 6″ GI Joe Declassified line and GameStop Marvel Legends Outback Hulk), we won’t have to wait much longer for Hasbro to play their cards. And this year, non-attendees will be able to enjoy the festivities for the first time ever: the Hasbro Presentation will be streamed live from the show! And that’s not all! Get ready, because the 2020 Marvel Legends Fan’s Choice Poll launches as well…

If there was any speck of doubt left that we are living in a crazy golden age of Marvel Legends action figures, the subject of today’s review should remove all doubt. She’s one of the wildest and most off-the-wall additions to the Spider-Man Legends series ever (and I think that says a lot!): the Hasbro Marvel Legends White Rabbit figure is shipping now from online retailers and flying off the shelves in the stores where she’s appeared! Is this whimsical and elusive White Rabbit worth chasing after?

Eight days remain until the start of the 2020 New York Toy Fair, but today Funko had two brand-new Marvel POP Vinyls that just couldn’t stand to wait another week to be revealed: the exclusive Funko POP Spider-Man vs. Venom diorama and Punisher War Machine are now up for order! And not only are these strongly comic-based figure designs—they’re also going to be available with actual variant comic books! Combining variant covers and exclusive figure releases in one, has Funko hit a sweet spot here for Marvel collectors?

New York Toy Fair 2020 is just a short 10 days away—but before I get to NYC to photograph and preview a plethora of upcoming Hasbro Marvel Legends 2020 figures, I’ve got some catching up to do talking about some recently-released ones! And this time out, I knew the figure I wanted to review first—because he’s a cagey old codger who refuses to wait: the 2020 Marvel Legends Vulture figure headlining the Spider-Man Demogoblin Series is now available! After over a decade since the last 6” classic Vulture, has Hasbro perfected the old-timer?

When Kaiyido Revoltech solicited their first Marvel comics-based figure almost four years ago (Deadpool), I wondered if the market really had space for another expensive 6” Marvel figures series. The answer was clearly “yes”, as Kaiyodo has been expanding the range each year since, and has given us more X-Men characters than any other import line. And this year, Deadpool is getting a friend and the X-family will be growing further when the Revoltech Cable figure arrives!
