While Mezco Toyz had some of the biggest show-stopping premieres at New York Toy Fair 2019 (including the insanely cool Ghost Rider & Motorcycle set), they didn’t have quite as many never-before-seen Marvel ONE:12 Collective figures on display at their booth as many fans might have liked. But while the in-person reviews may have disappointed some, a couple unexpected reveals in the 2019 catalog are likely to blow a lot of minds—Marvel ONE:12 Collective Gambit and Moon Knight!

Next up for discussion from the multitude of new series of Marvel Legends figures revealed by Hasbro at New York Toy Fair 2019 is the second (of most likely two) Spider-Man Marvel Legends series for the year! Whereas the first wave of the year had everyone buying it to get the Kingpin Build-A-Figure parts, I think every individual figure for this wave will be popular when pre-orders open up later this year…

The Vintage X-Men Marvel Legends Series I discussed yesterday wasn’t the only heavily-rumored wave of figures that Hasbro officially confirmed at the 2019 Toy Fair over the weekend: the much-speculated 2019 Marvel Legends X-Force Wave is also coming to fruition with an eclectic group of characters including Nightcrawler, Cannonball, Mr. Sinister, Boom Boom and more!

Now that I’m back home from NYC, I can really dig in and look at the enormous number of reveals that occurred at New York Toy Fair 2019. I’ll be discussing every company at length, but I know the one folks want to hear about most is Hasbro. I’ll begin with a series that was hotly-rumored and finally confirmed at the Hasbro media event over the weekend (minutes after the ML X-Men series with Beast, Gambit and Jubilee opened for PO): the Marvel Legends X-Men Vintage Series featuring Cyclops, Silver Samurai, Dazzler and more!

Hey guys! I’m back from the New York Toy Fair 2019 Hasbro Media Presentation, which was one of the most mind-blowing experiences of my life–and that was just the opening song and dance number by the Hasbro higher-ups set to “Be Our Guest”!

Anyway, I’ve taken over half a thousand hi-res Marvel Legends photos, which I’ll be uploading over the course of tonight to the Marvel Toy News Facebook, Instagram and Twitter Pages. Thanks and enjoy the coverage!

One of the primary things I’ve been looking forward to seeing at the 2019 Toy Fair is the new line of ARTFX Premier Statues that Kotobukiya surprise-announced with a teaser image of Captain America and Thor earlier this week. Well, as expected those first two pieces appears today at Toy Fair—along with surprise debuts of Hulk and Iron Man!

Earlier this year, rumors began swirling regarding an all-new unannounced series of Hasbro Marvel 80th Anniversary Marvel Legends Figures. I don’t like to comment on leaked news—especially with Toy Fair coming up fast—so I haven’t talked about those rumors up until now. But today, things changed—because they’re rumors no more! As announced during the Hasbro Investor Preview Event today, the new 80th Anniversary Marvel Legends figures series will be revealed at New York Toy Fair 2019 this weekend!

Sideshow Collectibles has been giving us a healthy mix of new characters (like X-23, Domino and Miles Morales Spider-Man) and revisits of iconic mainstays (like Psylocke, Captain America and Black Widow) over the past year, and now it’s the most popular vigilante in the Marvel Universe’s turn: the new Sideshow Exclusive Punisher Premium Format Figure is now up for order! And continuing their recent streak of hot exclusives, it looks like this is going to be another 1:4 statue that’s going to be “EX or Bust” for most collectors…

I’m leaving for New York Toy Fair 2019 tomorrow morning, but before I can even get out the door, companies are beginning to post previews of new products that will be fully unveiled at the event this weekend! One such company is Diamond Select Toys, who have unveiled a superfecta of new Marvel products in the build-up to the show. All four previews are good ones, but there’s one that’s generating more buzz than any of the others: the Marvel Select Sandman figure is now up for order!
