Having owned a copious number of Toybiz Marvel figures as a kid in the 90s makes me exactly the demographic that MONDO is targeting with their popular Marvel 1/6 figure lines. They’ve successfully sold me a half-dozen-plus X-Men 92 figures, and now they’ve moved on to the Spider-Verse: the 1/6 MONDO Spider-Man Animated Series Spidey and Venom figures are currently up for order!

The march to the new year is officially on, and as we enter the home stretch, Hasbro is continuing to tease collectors with more Marvel Legends 2025 figures coming our way this winter. Last week, they quietly announced the Marvel Legends Moonstone (Dark Ms. Marvel/Warbird), giving fans the first-ever 6” figure of super-villain Karla Soren in her Dark Avengers costume. And at this week’s Lucca 2024 event in Italy, two more surprises were revealed: Marvel Legends Fabian Cortez (of X-Men fame) and a powered-up version of The Spot from last year’s Across the Spider-Verse movie!

Diamond Select Toys brought a smaller than usual assemblage of new Marvel collectibles to New York Comic Con 2024, so I was a mite worried we wouldn’t get a good round of DST solicitations this month. Luckily, that’s not the case, as we’re getting a highly-demanded movie Select figure, two new shots at animated busts of top villains and a reissue of a store exclusive: Marvel Select Deadpool vs Wolverine Wolverine, Carnage X and busts of Green Goblin and unhelmeted Magneto are now up for order!

Hasbro knows right where to hit old-timers like me with the nostalgic feels. A Marvel Legends Secret Wars Retro series of figures has been widely rumored all year to coincide with the 40th anniversary of the event, and at PulseCon 2024 last week, Hasbro confirmed it: Marvel Legends Secret Wars Wolverine, Symbiote Spider-Man, The Beyonder, Titania and more are now up for order!

Hasbro has been taking the slow and steady approach throughout 2024, giving Marvel Legends collectors a few little treats each month, rather than hammering fans with wave after wave of figures as in past years. But speaking of past years, this week’s offerings are a blast from the past, bringing back two of the most popular ML of the last half decade: reissues of the X-Men Legends Professor X in Hoverchair and Spider-Man Legends Retro Green Goblin are now up for order!

With McFarlane Toys being the primary producer of DC Comics figures these days, it definitely came as a bit of a shock when it was announced a few months back that McFarlane Toys Marvel figures were on the way as well! Fully revealed this week, McFarlane Marvel pre-posed 1/6 and 1/10 figures are now up for order! Let’s have a peek and see what this new line is all about…

It’s that time of the month once again: as per usual, Diamond Select Toys has several all-new Marvel collectibles they’re debuting and immediately opening for pre-orders. There’s no Marvel Select or Marvel Gallery figure this month (a rarity), but we do get an all-new trio of resin sculptures: the Marvel Animated Deadpool Jumping statue and Moon Knight/Iron Spider mini busts are now up for order!

Carnage has gotten quite a bit of love across collectibles and multimedia over the last several years, but there was one important toy “hole” that still needed to be filled. While Hot Toys and SH Figuarts put their Venom 2 versions up for sale long ago, Hasbro is finally ready to follow suit: the all-huge and all-new Let There Be Carnage Marvel Legends Carnage movie figure is finally up for order!

Hasbro brought their A-game to this week’s new Hasbro Pulse Marvel Legends stream of figure reveals, but the most immediate ones were for figures semi-confirmed by leaked prototypes that surfaced over the last few weeks. There was quite a bit of buzz surrounding those leaks, but now fans can lock in their reservations and pine away for the actual products: Marvel Legends Superior Spider-Man and Astonishing X-Men Wolverine are now up for order!

The third time may be the charm for a lot of Marvel collectors, as the always-in-demand comic-based Marvel Legends Kingpin figure is now up for order and making his third Hasbro appearance in the last decade. The 2018 Kingpin Build-A-Figure was a hot commodity, and even the 2021 Spider-Man Retro Series version skyrocketed to sell for over twice its retail MSRP. But now new collectors and those who missed out get a fresh chance with the first-ever Marvel Legends Retro figure re-release! Who else would you like to see reissued, Marvel collectors?

A Toybiz action figure I got a surprising amount of enjoyment out of growing up was the 1996 Marvel’s Famous Couples Mary Jane from Spider-Man: The Animated Series. I never expected to see that version of the character in toy form again, but 27 years later, Hasbro brought Spider-Man TAS MJ back to life in Marvel Legends form, as part of a 2-Pack with Animated Green Goblin! Was this exclusive VHS 2-pack of Spidey icons worth picking up while you still can?

Movie Doctor Octopushas been a primary demand from ML collectors for years, and 2 years after Spider-Man No Way Home hit theaters, the MCU Hasbro Marvel Legends Doc Ock 6” figure arrived. Rather than being a pack-in Build-A-Figure as many fans dreamed, the Marvel Legends Doctor Octopus movie figure is a $38 deluxe standalone release. Is this unique-sculpted Spidey villain worth a pair of Andrew Jacksons and a spot on your shelf? Here’s my review…

I have highly limited space left in my displays for huge statues at this point, and even less space in my wallet for them. But I’m always watching for new characters I don’t have a statue of and bold takes on ones I do. So far this month, Sideshow has both! A new 1/4 Spider-Man Premium Format Figure and the first-ever 1/4 Dazzler Premium Format Figure are now up for order! Are they worth a look, lofty price tags and all?

Daredevil is celebrating his 60th anniversary this year, and Hasbro isn’t going to let the milestone pass without at least a little bit of representation in the 2024 Marvel Legends lineup! Just announced and going up for pre-order this week, it’s the Hasbro Pulse exclusive Spider-Man Animated Series Marvel Legends Daredevil & Hydro-Man 6″ action figures VHS 2-pack! Matt Murdock is a man without fear, but not a figure without cel-shading! Do you need one fo your shelf…?

Earlier this week I talked about the triad of new offerings from Diamond Select Toys’ latest solicitations, but I need to backtrack and discuss a trio of very popular collectibles being reissued as well: Marvel Select Advanced Suit Spider-Man, Marvel Gallery Emma Frost and the Animated Deadpool statue! Let’s take a look at these previously sold out pieces…
