Is the most high-end Wade Wilson action figure ever made worth a purchase? Let’s take a look… [Spoilers: He is.]

He may only serve a supporting role in all of the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies that he appears in, but no one can deny that War Machine gets his fair share of high-end collectibles from Hot Toys!

The Hot Toys Captain America: Civil War War Machine Mark III Die-Cast figure is now up for order! What sets this one apart and makes it worth buying yet another Rhodey? Read on…

It’s crazy to think that it’s already been a whole year since Thanos and the Avengers Age of Ultron Hot Toys were revealed at Toy Soul 2014, but Toy Soul 2015 has arrived–and brought with it a dozen-plus new Hot Toys 2016 figures!
We saw the fantastic Deadpool movie figure yesterday, and now let’s take our first look at the Hot Toys Captain America Civil War lineup, including new versions of Falcon, Scarlet Witch, Winter Soldier and more!

As I was getting ready for bed last night at my usual 4AM bedtime, I glanced at my Facebook Newsfeed briefly and was a bit taken aback to see a post by Hot Toys with a mega-sized image of Deadpool’s mask on it. The teaser photo’s accompanying text gave collectors the news that many have been praying for: an official Hot Toys Deadpool sixth scale figure is being released next year! But wait! We didn’t just get an announcement that Wade was coming–at today’s Toy Soul 2015 event overseas, the Deadpool Hot Toys figure was officially revealed!

After being one of the more expensive and sought-after Marvel Hot Toys sixth scale figures for years, the market has crashed on the Iron Man 2 War Machine MMS 120. That figure itself is still an excellent release, but the demand for that figure fell off a cliff after Hot Toys announced a die-cast version last month.
And now, the superior remake is officially on the way–the Hot Toys Iron Man 2 Die-Cast War Machine is now up for order!

While I talk an awful lot about Hot Toys Marvel figures on this blog (and I’m legitimately somewhat embarrassed about how much I spend on Hot Toys each year), I tend to not review many of the sixth scale figures I buy. why? Well, frankly, it’s almost tedious having to prattle on about toys that are virtually perfection. but seeing as how Sideshow Collectibles’ Black Friday sale has the Hot Toys Heartbreaker Iron Man available for 30% Off and free shipping with code “BF3015” this week, I figure now is a good time to gush about how amazing this figure is….

With the upcoming releases of Maria Hill, Quicksilver and Drax the Destroyer, I had it in my head that Hot Toys had now covered virtually every single base when it came to heroic characters in the Hot Toys Marvel sixth scale figure line. But somehow, some way, I was overlooking the single most ubiquitous man in all of Marvel movie-dom. But thankfully, Hot Toys did not overlook the icon himself, with more Marvel movie appearances than any other actor in history: the Hot Toys Stan Lee sixth scale figure is now available for order!

When Hot Toys posted their preview image for next week’s 2015 Singapore Toy, Game & Comic Convention (STGCC 2015), it looked suspiciously like a blue repaint of their just-released Iron Man Mark 3 die-cast figure.
But having already released two exclusive Stealth Iron Man figures this year, surely Hot Toys couldn’t have another on deck… right? Wrong–the exclusive Hot Toys Stealth Iron Man Mark III is now up for order!

You never forget your first–and my first was Samuel L. Jackson. That’s right–though I own dozens of them now (I’m scared to count how many), it was the Hot Toys Nick Fury figure from the Avengers that convinced me to enter the sixth-scale game. But hey, I own a double-digit number of Iron Man sixth scale figures, so I definitely have room for another Samuel Jackson in my collection–especially an improved one! The Hot Toys Nick Fury 1/6 figure is now up for order!

It’s more than a little bit ironic that the single fastest character in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe is lagging far behind all of the other Movie Masterpiece Series Avengers figures in going up for pre-order.
But considering that there were serious doubts about whether he was ever coming or not at all up until two weeks ago, I guess we probably shouldn’t complain–the Hot Toys Quicksilver figure is now available for order!

In a span of less than one month, Hot Toys has revealed or put up for sale three of the four most fervently-demanded Marvel Cinematic Universe characters that previously had not been produced in the Movie Masterpiece Series: Maria Hill, Pepper Potts and Quicksilver. At this point, there’s only one major character that fans have been crying out for whose fate has been up in the air–but now it appears that a Guardians of the Galaxy Hot Toys Drax figure is finally on the way (again) as well!

I like being right (a lot), and as such, I am rarely happy to be wrong. But today is one of those times–and not only has Hot Toys proven me wrong once today… they’ve done it twice!
Not only is the Iron Man Mark IX I had written off as never coming on the way–but so is the Pepper Potts figure that’s allegedly been in-development for over two years! The exclusive Hot Toys Pepper Potts & Iron Man Mark 9 set is now up for order!

“BOOM!!!” That’s the sound of thousands of Marvel Hot Toys collectors’ collective heads exploding, as in 24 hours, Hot Toys has knocked off three of the most-requested figures from fans’ wish lists.
Pepper Potts debuted yesterday and will go up for sale today, and now the long-demanded Hot Toys Quicksilver and The Winter Soldier Nick Fury figures have been revealed!

At San Diego Comic-Con 2015 last week, Hot Toys finally dropped the curtain and revealed their much-anticipated Ant-Man Movie Masterpiece Series figure. Reaction to the overall look of the figure has been positive, leaving most collectors with just one question: “When can we buy it?”
Well, Hot Toys must have figured that what day could be better than the one when Ant-Man hits theaters–the Hot Toys Ant-Man figure is now up for order!

There are certain characters that fans have been asking Hot Toys for for so long now that many collectors started assuming that these niche characters were simply never going to be produced. In the case of Pepper Potts and maybe even Quicksilver, those fans may be right. But this week, Hot Toys proved all those who said Cobie Smulders was never going to appear in sixth scale form wrong: the limited 2015 Toy Fair Exclusive Hot Toys Maria Hill figure is now up for order!
