Hasbro Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy 2 Two-Pack Packaged

Coming our way this spring, it’s 3.75″ Marvel Legends movie figures love in the form of two-packs for Doctor Strange, Spider-Man Homecoming and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2!

Funko POP Iceman Specialty Series Exclusive Vinyl Figure Box

Way back in summer 2016, Funko released their first-ever Iceman vinyl figure as part of a SDCC 2016 Exclusive Dorbz X-Men 3-Pack. Following that up, the Hot Topic exclusive Iceman Mystery Minis figure arrived at retail this winter (an appropriate season for Iceman to be released). We’ve been wondering since last summer when and where we’d finally get an official Funko Iceman POP Vinyl figure, but now we wait no more: the Specialty Series Iceman POP figure has now been announced!

Hasbro Avengers Hulk 6 Inch Figure Basic 2017 Packaged

The news tends to flow freely and early when it comes to the Marvel Legends 6″ figures, but not all Hasbro Marvel lines–particularly the ones that aren’t collector-targeted–are quite so lucky. As such, occasionally new Hasbro Marvel toys will hit retail stores with nary a headline or preview to be found. Such is the case with a new line of 6″ Avengers figures that are popping up in stores right now, and which seem to be a sales hit thus far…

Retro Armor Sneaky Iron Man Hot Toys Review MMS 396

Given that Tony Stark has 42 different Iron Man armor permutations on-screen just in the Iron Man 3 movie, you might think Hot Toys would never have to release an armor not seen in the movie again. But as it turns out, there’s a concept colors version of one of the armors that was just screaming to be made… and Hot Toys heard the call loud and clear! The limited Hot Toys Sneaky Iron Man Retro Version figure is available for order exclusively through Sideshow Collectibles–and trust me, die-hard Iron Man fans are gonna want to order this before it sells out…

Sideshow EXCLUSIVE Anti Venom Statue Up for Order

My recent resolve to cut back on collecting 1/4 scale statues for spatial and monetary reasons melted away like butter confronted by the Human Torch last month when Prime-1 Studio announced their new line of 1/4 Marvel statues. P1 claimed all of my Sideshow Rewards (and a six month payment plan) from me for their Spider-Man 2099 statue last month, and now their second statue has arrived: the Prime-1 Studio Anti-Venom statue is now up for order!

Funko Netflix Marvel 2017 POP Vinyls Announced

Some toy companies get a little bit quiet in the month before the New York Toy Fair (and yes, I’ll be braving the bitter Manhattan winter again for you all next month), but Funko isn’t one of those companies! In fact, they hit us up with a double whammy of Marvel POP Vinyls announcements today–including one pair of Jessica Jones figures that’s not exactly “news” and a quartet of Netflix Daredevil Season 2 POPs now up for order that definitely are…

Gentle Giant Marvel Animated Groot and Rocket Raccoon Statue Close-Up

Today looks to be a quiet start to another week of Marvel Toy News, so let’s step back and take a look at an item that was revealed last week that’s pretty near and dear to my heart. With the Skottie Young Magneto that debuted at SDCC 2016 being the only Marvel Babies statue Gentle Giant hadn’t put up for sale yet, most people (including me) expected Mags to be the next pre-order in the line. But nope! The next character is actually two characters: the Marvel Animated Groot & Rocket Raccoon statue is now up for order!

Marvel Select The Destroyer Odin Figure Released

The postal service is infuriatingly slow delivering my latest Diamond Select Toys figure (grumble grumble), so that meant I had to take a field trip down to the mall this week to at least take packaged photos of the first Marvel Select figure to arrive this year! He may not be in the upper-echelon of most beloved Marvel villains, but I’ve seen firsthand now just how drop-dead gorgeous and amazing this Marvel Select Destroyer Odin figure is…

Marvel Play Arts Kai Wolverine Figure Up for Order

Have you ever waited so long from when a figure was fully revealed to when it was available for order that when it actually did go up for sale, you thought you’d ordered it months ago…? Yeah–that’s how I feel about the Marvel Play Arts Kai Wolverine figure, which I could have swore I ordered at least 3 months ago. But I did not–at least, not then. That said–the Wolverine Play Arts Kai figure is now up for order–and this time, I really and truly have placed an order for him…
