Avengers Age of Ultron Hot Toys Artist Mix Figures Revealed!

Hot Toys Artist Mix Hulkbuster Iron Man Mark XLIII Deluxe Set

Hot Toys has basically conquered the world of sixth scale Marvel figures and collectibles, so it’s only natural that they’d now want to expand their Marvel license into other ranges as well. And if there’s one company that has been able to challenge the hype and buzz surrounding Hot Toys for the past year or two, it’s Funko. And thus, Hot Toys is now entering into a fierce competition with Funko, as their latest line of Marvel collectibles is in the form of the bobble-head Hot Toys Avengers Age of Ultron Artist Mix figures that are now up for order!

Funko has thrown Marvel collectors a true curveball today, when they announced that the insanely-anticipated Avengers Age of Ultron Funko Hulkbuster Iron Man POP!

Hot Toys Age of Ultron Captain America Up for Order!

Avengers Age of Ultron Captain America Hot Toys Figure with Steve Rogers Head

Considering that Hot Toys released three Captain America sixth scale figures last year, another the year before that, two more the year before that, and one way back in 2011, you might think that fandom would be less than excited about yet another Hot Toys Captain America figure in the 2015 pipeline. But in actuality, Hot Toys collectors are psyched for the next Cap, as it looks like it very well may end up being the best one ever: the Hot Toys Avengers Age of Ultron Captain America figure is now up for order!

Marvel Select Avengers Age of Ultron Hulk Figure

This week has been perhaps the busiest and the most loaded-down with hotly-anticipated new Marvel you announcements of any week I can recall. But while the past days have been absolutely bursting with hugely-popular new collectibles, one item in particular seems to be getting a bad rap and loads of criticism all-around. The Marvel Select Avengers Age of Ultron Hulk has been up for order for a while, but was only revealed this week. Is this upcoming figure really worth all the negativity being directed at it?

Funko Hulkbuster Iron Man POP Vinyl 6″ Figure Revealed!

Hulkbuster Iron Man Funko POP Vinyls Figure Packaged

Word leaked out to me a few weeks ago that Funko was planning to celebrate the most marketable “new” character in the Avengers: Age of Ultron movie–Hulkbuster Iron Man–in a big way. When photos popped up this week of almost every other announced figure however, I assumed Funko was holding onto this as a big Toy Fair 2015 reveal. I assumed wrong: the 6″ Funko Hulkbuster Iron Man POP Vinyls figure has now been revealed!

Avengers Funko Fabrikations Hulk Thor Revealed Age of Ultron

Among the many, many new product lines that Funko launched in 2014, my absolute favorite is the Funko Fabrikations line of plush vinyl figures. The Funko Fabrikations Deadpool and Rocket Raccoon figures released last year were enormously popular, and I’ve been pining away for a while for news of another release in the line. Well, the announcement took a while, but there’s not one new Marvel Fabrikations Funko figure on the way–there’s four: the Funko Fabrikations Avengers Age of Ultron figures are now up for order!

Marvel Select Black Widow Movie Figure Announced

We’ve known for a while now that Diamond Select Toys would only be releasing a trio of Marvel Select Avengers Age of Ultron figures, with two of the figures being a repainted movie Marvel Select Thor and a retooled movie Marvel Select Hulk–but what we didn’t know was the identity of the third and final figure… until now.

Avengers Age of Ultron Mashers Figures Revealed! Vision!

Avengers Age of Ultron Vision Marvel Super Hero Mashers Figure

Marvel Super Hero Mashers and I got off to a rocky start, as I legitimately thought that the line was a joke when I heard about it–and when I found out the figures were actually real, I thought they were even more ridiculous. But when I get the Marvel Mashers Deadpool figure last summer, Hasbro won me over with the stylized, well-articulated, reasonably-priced Marvel Super Hero Mashers figures. And the successful line will be expanding even further in 2015, with a whole assortment of Avengers Age of Ultron Mashers–including the first Marvel Mashers Vision and Ultron figures!

Hasbro Avengers Age of Ultron 2.5″ Figures Revealed!

Avengers Age of Ultron Figures 2 Inch Hasbro 2015

When Hasbro marched out the Guardians of the Galaxy 2.5″ figures last year, they weren’t exactly met with abundant love and praise. While the smaller scale allowed Hasbro to produce affordable in-scale vehicles, the figures themselves were lacking in articulation, paint apps and sculpting detail, making them some of the most collector-derided Marvel figures of 2014. Collectors used to the Marvel Universe style of super-articulated 3 3/4″ figures were just not impressed. And it looks like they’ll continue to be unimpressed in 2015, as a series of Hasbro Avengers Age of Ultron 2.5″ figures is on the way… along with a Quinjet and Avengers Tower playset!

Hot Wheels Avengers Tower Takeover Set Revealed & Photos!

Avengers Age of Ultron Hot Wheels Avengers Tower Takeover Set Box

When the first Avengers movie came out, the franchise hadn’t yet proven itself as a record-shattering sales-juggernaut, so many toy manufacturers didn’t give the Avengers the time of day back in 2012. But this year–this year–everybody wants a piece of the Avengers Age of Ultron pie. And that means we are going to get all kinds of wacky, crazy merchandise–my favorite kind of merch. Case in point? This Hot Wheels Avengers Tower Takeover Set, in which, uhhh… well, Iron Man in sports car form tries to drive around a mammoth Ultron and make him explode!
