Marvel Gallery Jigsaw & Animated Doctor Strange DST Statues Up for Order!

Marvel Gallery Jigsaw Star-Lord and Marvel Animated Doctor Strange Babies

Earlier today I talked about two of Diamond Select Toys’ big surprises from their new solicitations in the form of a movie Taskmaster figure and their upcoming Archangel statue’s price-tag, but there was one more major surprise in the listings—a statue of a character I never in my life expected to see a statue of: the Marvel Gallery Jigsaw PVC statue is now up for order! And he’s not coming alone—value-priced Animated Doctor Strange and a comics Marvel Gallery Star-Lord reissue are on the way as well…

Marvel Select Taskmaster & Premier Collection Archangel Up for Order!

Posted on by January 25, 2020
Marvel Select Taskmaster and Premier Collection Archangel Statue

When Diamond Select Toys debuted their humongous Archangel statue at NYCC 2019 last October, I had my doubts they could keep it below the usual $199 Premier Collection price-point regardless of what the placard said at the event. And I was right, as Warren is actually priced at a surprising $399 MSRP! Thankfully, EE has the Marvel Premier Collection marked down a more $319 shipped for pre-orders. But that wasn’t the only surprise in the new solicits—a Marvel Select Taskmaster movie figure is also on the way!

Exclusive Marvel Legends Black Widow Grey & White Costume Comic Figures!

Marvel Legends Exclusive Black Widow Grey White Comic Book Figures

Last week I noted my surprise that the movie Black Widow Legends figure in white costume was going to be available via many retailers and not just as a Target or Walmart exclusive like last year’s pair of Captain Marvels. Well, looks like Hasbro was way ahead of me and had that box checked already with comic variants–a Walmart Exclusive Marvel Legends Grey Costume Black Widow is now up for order, and Target has their own comic-based white costume Black Widow as well!

REVIEW: Marvel Legends She-Hulk Figure (Fantastic Four Super Skrull Series)

Posted on by January 21, 2020
She-Hulk Marvel Legends Fantastic Four Series Figure vs The Thing

While I’ve already previously reviewed the whole new Marvel Legends Fantastic Four team and Doctor Doom figures, there’s still one more single-packed figure left to review from the wave—who, coincidentally, is perhaps the most controversial and least-hyped figure in the Super Skrull series! Succumbing to her rage and PTSD, modern Grey She-Hulk is now available as a Marvel Legends figure for the very first time! This take on Shulkie wasn’t exactly a major hit with comic book fans—but that doesn’t mean her action figure will necessarily share the same fate…

Funko POP Gambit and Rogue Revealed & Up for Order! Exclusives!

Posted on by January 20, 2020
Funko POP Vinyls Gambit and Rogue Figures

When Funko started seriously building an X-Men POP Vinyls sub-series of Marvel figures a few years back, diehard fans immediately started demanding two characters who rose to iconic status in the 90s—Rogue and Gambit! It’s actually taken a surprisingly long time to get to the 90s Jim Lee power couple, but the wait is over at last: Funko POP Rogue and Gambit figures are finally up for order—including an EE Exclusive Glow in the Dark Gambit POP!

Black Widow Marvel Legends Deluxe White Costume Figure Up for Order!

Marvel Legends White Costume Black Widow Figure and Accessories

The moment that the first trailer for the Black Widow movie dropped and the corresponding movie Legends wave was revealed last month, collectors started demanding to know when and where we’d be getting a figure of the eye-grabbing white costume seen prominently in the trailer. Well, Hasbro didn’t make us wait too long for the answer: the Deluxe Black Widow Marvel Legends White Costume figure is now up for order with free shipping—and she comes packing extra gun, effects pieces, explosions, a flight stand and more!

Sideshow Doctor Strange Maquette Statue Photos & Order Info!

Doctor Strange Sideshow Collectibles 2020 Statue

For over 14 long years, the resin Bowen Designs Doctor Strange statue by the Kucharek Bros. has reigned supreme and unchallenged as the best domestic comic-based statue of the Sorcerer Supreme in all the land. But following the good doctor’s explosive rise in popularity thanks to his appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a new challenger is about to enter the fray: the 1/4 Sideshow Collectibles Doctor Strange statue went up for order today! And who better to try to take down the champion than the sculptors of the Bowen piece—the Kucharek Brothers themselves…

REVIEW: Fantastic Four Marvel Legends Human Torch Johnny Storm Figure

Posted on by January 15, 2020
Human Torch Six Inch Figure Hasbro 2020 Marvel Legends

FLAME ON! Or, at least… sort of on! Maybe 10% on! It’s finally time to complete my reviews of the new Marvel Legends Fantastic Four, with the original Marvel hot-headed young male—Johnny Storm! This is the figure that varies the most wildly from the Walgreens Exclusive version, but this Human Torch is also the easiest Fantastic Four Legends figure to snag online for retail. Is there anything wrong with this flamed-off Human Torch figure, or is non-powered Johnny Storm just not as visually compelling in toy form…?

Doctor Doom Marvel Legends 2020 Figure Review (Super Skrull Series)

Posted on by January 10, 2020
Fantastic Four Legends Thing vs Dr Doom

I was planning to finish off the week by flaming on a review of the new Human Torch figure, but it turned out that there was a despot who demanded to be moved closer to Richards in the reviewing queue! Considered by many to be the greatest villain in the Marvel Universe (and even greatest villain period by some), the King of Latveria has already pre-sold out via sites like Amazon and BBTS despite being two-per-case. EE is still taking orders for the new Marvel Legends Doctor Doom figure for an arrival this month—is this a figure worth locking in if you haven’t done so already…?

Marvel Legends 2020 Fantastic Four The Thing Figure Review (Super Skrull Series)

Posted on by January 9, 2020
The Thing and Invisible Woman Hasbro Marvel Legends 2020 Figures

Logically I would follow up my 2020 Marvel Legends Invisible Woman review with a look at her brother (the Human Torch), but instead I’m going to mix things up and focus on the character who would be this wave’s headliner if not for a certain Victor von Doom! Fantastic Four Legends The Thing is in-stock and shipping out now via online stores, and hopefully there will be enough to meet demand this time (as Ben is packed at two-per-case), because this ever-lovin’ blue-eyed Thing is a real winner of an action figure that every fan deserves a shot at!

REVIEW: 2020 Marvel Legends Fantastic Four Invisible Woman Figure

Posted on by January 7, 2020
Fantastic Four Marvel Legends Invisible Woman Review

I kicked off my series of Marvel Legends 2020 reviews yesterday with Mr. Fantastic, and it only seems right that I continue along that track today with Reed’s wife so that he doesn’t get lonely: the Fantastic Four Marvel Legends Invisible Woman figure is now shipping out online! It seems like only yesterday the exclusive Walgreens Invisible Woman hit shelves, but it was actually 2017–has Hasbro found a way to make this Sue Storm a worthy addition to that classic version?

Fantastic Four Legends Mr. Fantastic in Black Costume

Marvel Legends 2020 figures are finally starting to ship out via online retailers (and arrive in some brick and mortar stores), and as such I’m able to launch my first 2020 Marvel Legends review today at last! And what better place to begin than with the leader of Marvel’s first family: the Fantastic Four Marvel Legends Mr. Fantastic figure is shipping out now online—if you already have the Walgreens version, does this new iteration of Reed Richards have anything to offer?

Just when you thought the Spider-Man Far From Home toys were over, one more springs into solicitations: the Mezco ONE:12 Collective Exclusive Stealth Suit Spider-Man is now up for order! Now that fans have had six months to let Spidey FFH percolate in the back of their minds, is there still a market for launching more high-end figures from the movie?

Gamestop Exclusive PS4 Spider-Man Marvel Gallery Statues Taxi Punk

Square Enix’s Avengers video game is looking to topple 2018’s Spider-Man PS4 game as the king of the Marvel GamerVerse in May, but Spidey isn’t ready to give up his throne for a few more months! And as such, the merch for the best-selling game continues to roll out, expanding with a pair of brand new PVC figures that are GameStop Exclusives: Marvel Gallery Spider-Punk and PS4 Spider-Man on Taxi Cab are now up for order!

Funko POP 2020 Venomized Venom Series Vinyl Figures

Just like you should never underestimate a droid, you should never underestimate Funko. When Funko launched their inaugural Venomized POP Vinyls in 2018 featuring characters like Venom Hulk and Captain America, I thought the series would find a niche audience and then fizzle. Instead, they’re kicking off 2020 with a third wave of the best-selling line: Funko POP Venomized Punisher, Ultron, Miles, Baby Groot and more are now up for order! And oh yeah—there’s a Hot Topic Exclusive Green Goblin Venom up for PO as well…
