Last week I talked about the new VS Series of PVCs with thematically matching bases, but that’s not all the Marvel Gallery goodness that Diamond Select Toys had to show off at New York Toy Fair 2020! Alongside the new Marvel Gallery Agent Venom and Rocket Raccoon statues that launched Toy Fair week, there were an additional half-dozen new traditional PVC statues shown– including a new Spider-Gwen, Storm, Taskmaster, Bishop, Nova and more!

One of my favorite booths to visit that I can count on to be at virtually every event that I attend is Diamond Select Toys. This year’s New York Toy Fair 2020 was no exception! Even though there were no new Marvel Select figures shown (aside from the PS4 Spider-Man packaging), DST brought the big game with so many Marvel Gallery figures that will be up for pre-order this year, I can’t fit them all in one article! So I’ll split it in two, and start by looking at the new Marvel Gallery VS statue PVCs, including Wasp, Vision, Wolverine, classic Iron Man and more…

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!

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!
Continue Reading →Diamond Select Toys’ various Marvel statue lines are the gift that keeps on giving all year round for value-priced statue fans, and it’s no surprise that they’ve got another four items lined up for us to close out their 2019 solicitations! This quartet is mainly aimed at X-Men fans, but there’s some Avengers love as well: the Marvel Gallery Longshot and Emma Frost, Premier Collection Black Panther statue Animated Jean Grey bust are all up for order now! Is DST ending the year on a high note?

Do these have any advantages over the Hasbro Marvel Legends versions? Let’s take a look…
Continue Reading →Earlier this month I talked about the singular most expensive Marvel purchase I’ve ever made: the massive Sideshow Juggernaut Maquette. But for those who aren’t loco like me and willing to drop 1.3 grand on a statue, there’s a Juggs for you too: the Diamond Select Marvel Premier Collection Juggernaut Statue is now up for order for just over 200 bucks shipped! But that’s not all—this month’s solicits have also brought us a Marvel Gallery Weapon X, Skottie Young Elektra, GOTG Minimates—and even a 1:2 bust of The Mandalorian!
Continue Reading →Just when many collectors had written off the possibility of any new Diamond Select Toys 7″ figures from the latest Spider-Man movie as “not happening”, one such figure quietly and accidentally slipped out into a few Disney Stores last week. And now it’s official—the Disney Exclusive Far From Home Spider-Man figure is up for order online! If you’ve ever dreamed of buying a Spidey action figure that came with a Union Jack flag, this is your time! And as it so happens, it’s also the last day to take 25% off on the Shop Disney website using code “DISNEYPAL”–don’t miss it!
Continue Reading →I don’t believe I’ve ever talked about two statues as expensive as the Sideshow Juggernaut Maquette and Iron Studios Sentinel Diorama in one week before, so today let’s turn the focus toward some more reasonably-priced pieces from Diamond Select Toys that are available to more than just the absolute most affluent collectors. They debuted at NYCC 2019 last month, and the Marvel Premier Collection Vision statue and Skottie Young Deadpool Animated statue are now up for order!
Continue Reading →Just when I thought I’d already posted and talked about every new Marvel collectible I saw at New York Comic Con 2019 earlier this month, I scrolled through my camera roll and discovered I’d never talked about not one, not two, not three, but four new class comic book-based Diamond Select Toys Marvel statues! (That’s four times as many Marvel statue debuts at the show than any other company!) So without further ado, let’s check out DST’s new takes on Hellcat, Hulk, Black Panther and Vision…
Continue Reading →While there were some quality new products revealed at New York Comic Con 2019, the quantity of fresh Marvel toys and statues that premiered at the show was a little bit lacking compared to past years. But one company that rarely lets me down is Diamond Select Toys, and they delivered once again at NYCC 2019 with over half a dozen new Marvel statues on display! And the two that caught my attention the moment I set sight on them were the Marvel Premier Collection Archangel and Juggernaut statues…
Continue Reading →Diamond Select Toys has carved out a nice little niche for themselves as purveyors of low-priced half-scale busts over the last year, with an ever-increasing variety of limited 1:2 Legends in 3D busts arriving in the market. The headlining sub-series … Continue Reading →
When Diamond Select Toys acquired Gentle Giant last winter, my number one fear was that it might mean the end of the long-running Skottie Young Marvel Babies Animated statues series. Thankfully, the line has actually thrived under DST with a … Continue Reading →
Diamond Select Toys has come out strong over the last several weeks, with what seems like a new Marvel Select figure being released in stores every other week! Last month it was the exceptional Psylocke Select figure and a comic-based Sandman I think is pretty underrated. And now, the Marvel Select Captain Marvel figure in her Starforce uniform is starting to ship out via online and comic book stores! But can she compete with the Target exclusive Legends version released many months ago…?
Continue Reading →We can virtually always count on Diamond Select Toys to present us with an eclectic mix of Marvel collectibles in each month’s solicitations, and this month’s are no exception. On the resin front, we’ve got three totally different resin items from three totally different styles and lines. The Diamond Select Toys Animated Black Panther Statue, 1:2 Scale Thanos Bust and Premier Collection Miles Morales are now up for order! Which are worth keeping an eye on (if any)…?
