Spider-Man 2099 & Miles Morales Titan Figures Released!

One Marvel toy line that doesn’t get a lot of headlines here on Marvel Toy News is the Marvel Titan Hero figures. That’s for a couple of reasons, but primarily because the Hasbro Titan Heroes are aimed purely at children and I tend to dabble more in the collector-oriented, middle-to-high-end collectibles. That said, Hasbro has gotten my attention with their latest Ultimate Spider-Man Titan Hero figures released, because they made some very interesting character choices for a change–including the Miles Morales Ultimate Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2099!

Hasbro Marvel Titan Heroes Spider-Man Figures Summer 2014I am never going to be a collector of the 12″ Marvel Titan Heroes action figures by Hasbro, but sometimes I do waver for a few moments of contemplate picking up a figure or two–or in this case, three! Though they’d previously been shown at the New York Toy Fair 2014, I wasn’t sure exactly when (or if) the new assortment of Titan Hero Ultimate Spider-Man figures was going to hit stores.

That question has been answered first-hand, however: the new Titan Hero Spider-Man 2099, Titan Hero Iron Spider-Man and Titan Hero Ultimate Spider-Man Miles Morales 12″ figures are all now released in stores!

Hasbro Ultimate Spider-Man Titan Hero and Iron Spider-Man Figures

While doing my regular toy hunting rounds, my spider-sense started tingling at my local Toys R Us store. Sure enough, there were Marvel figures that I hadn’t seen before on the pegs! Toys R Us had four pegs loaded with the newest Marvel Ultimate Spider-Man Titan Heroes figures, including a repacked Ultimate Spider-Man (classic costume), and newly-released figures of Iron Spider-Man, Spider-Man 2099 and Miles Morales Ultimate Spider-Man (black and red costume).

Spider-Man Titan Hero 12" Figures Box Backs Spider-Man 2099 Miles MoralesThe figures are all packing the standard Hasbro Titan Hero 12″ figure five points of articulation and have minimal paint deco, but I was a mite impressed by the character-specific artwork on the front of each box–that’s better than we’re getting for the “collector”-oriented Marvel Infinite Series and Marvel Legends 2014 figures!

Iron Spider-Man Titan Hero Figure Box Back BioThe back of each box also features a little bio about each character, which may actually be useful for those not familiar with these more obscure iterations of Spider-Man.

Spider-Man 2099 Titan Hero & Miles Morales Ultimate Spider-Man Titan Hero Action FigureI didn’t pick any of the new Titan Hero figures up, but I am definitely tempted to grab me a Miles Morales Spider-Man while I’ve got the opportunity. Toys R Us has the new Titan Hero Ultimate Spider-Man figures priced at $9.99 each, and had plenty of all four figures in-stock.

Thoughts on the newly-expanded Titan Hero Spider-Man figure series, Marvel collectors? Does the interesting character selection in this series garner a bit of your interest, or is this child-aimed toy line just too “kiddie” for you?

  1. On that bio found on the back of the box, Spider-Man 2099’s alter ego is given as “Miguel O’Shea”!

    That’s a sign of how bad these figures are.
