Well, against all odds, it looks we can cross another character off my big list of “Marvel Characters Unlikely To Ever Be Made in 6 Inch Scale Form”. Lockjaw has consistently placed at or near the top of Marvel Legends fan polls for years now, and a 6” Lockjaw is finally officially on the way—just not from Hasbro Marvel Legends!

But don’t think that the King of Exclusives will stand idly by and be shown up by any other company—the first Funko Exclusives made their debut today as well!

But while Ragnarok may be the focal-point of many of the MCU toys released later this year, it won’t be the center of all of them.
