Hot Toys is waging an all-out assault on Marvel collectors’ wallets this week like never before (and that is saying a lot)! Not content with the four Marvel 2020 Toy Fair/Comic Con Exclusives, they suddenly solicited an unexpected trio of Marvel movie sixth scale figures overnight—the Hot Toys Zombie Iron Man, Cable and Mech Test Tony Stark 2.0 are all now up for order! For Marvel Hot Toys collectors, this is truly one of the craziest weeks ever…!

Just when you thought the Spider-Man Far From Home toys were over, one more springs into solicitations: the Mezco ONE:12 Collective Exclusive Stealth Suit Spider-Man is now up for order! Now that fans have had six months to let Spidey FFH percolate in the back of their minds, is there still a market for launching more high-end figures from the movie? And more importantly, how good is this Exclusive ONE:12 Collective Night Monkey Spider-Man? Let’s have a look…

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!

Spider-Man collectors had a legit reason to fear we’d only be getting MCU Spidey variants from Hot Toys this year as part of the Spider-Man Far From Home MMS Series. For a variety of reasons, Lizard got no 1/6 figure; Rhino got no 1/6 figure; Vulture got no 1/6 figure. But tragedy (okay, maybe not tragedy in Rhino’s case) shan’t repeat itself again, and FFH Spidey won’t have to go enemy-less: the Hot Toys Mysterio figure is now up for order! We had to wait a long time for this announcement and it’ll be longer still for him to arrive—will this 1:6 Mysterio be worth it?

If there’s one thing you can count on with Marvel Hot Toys sixth scale figures, it’s that popular versions of main characters will almost without fail get exorbitantly expensive on the aftermarket once they’re sold out. Such was the case with the Homecoming Homemade Suit Spider-Man, which exploded to more than double its original price on the aftermarket this year. But HT has heard the cries of fans loud and clear: a reissue Hot Toys Homemade Suit Spider-Man Figure with new Mysterio Drone and other cool accessories is now up for order!

Hasbro has been on a roll this year revisiting fan-favorite characters that haven’t been done since the Toybiz days, and that trend continues with today’s review. Marvel Legends Hydro-Man seemed like a shoe-in to be a quick sellout online with his unique design and appearance in Spider-Man Far From Home, but he’s stuck around longer at MSRP longer than I would have predicted. Are people overlooking a hidden gem with this Hydro-Man Legends figure, or has Hasbro misfired with this release?

Hasbro has been pretty on-the-ball with giving collectors pretty much every major Marvel Studios villain in 6” Marvel Legends form (sorry Malekith and Kaecillius—you don’t rate), so it wasn’t a big plot twist when they revealed we’d be getting a movie-based Marvel Legends Mysterio figure from Spider-Man Far From Home as well. Packed at just one-per-case, the new 2019 Marvel Legends Mysterio figure is already sold out on Amazon, still available for pre-order from other online retailers and likely to be a tough grab at retail. Is he worth all the fuss?

Spider-Man Far From Home is now less than a week away from hitting theaters, so the time is right to discuss the final Marvel Cinematic Universe movie of Phase 3 (and 2019)! Rather than going the predictable route and kicking things off with Mysterio, instead I want to review a figure that’s gotten a bum rap up until now. The Marvel Legends Molten Man Build-A-Figure is selling surprisingly low on eBay as far as ML BAFs go, but is he high-quality enough to melt my cold heart in-hand?

“Spider-Man is the new Iron Man!” At least, that’s what all the cool kid Hot Toys collectors are saying lately, as Hot Toys has put not one, not two, but three new 1/6 Spidey MMS figures up for order already this month. But hey, maybe the fourth time time will be the charm for those who haven’t been seduced into picking up their own Spider-Man sixth scale figure yet: the Hot Toys Far From Home Upgraded Suit Spider-Man figure is now up for order! Is this the red-and-black costumed Spidey you’ve been waiting for?

As soon as the first Spider-Man Far From Home trailer revealed that a Noir-like Stealth Suit, fans started asking for merch of the costume. Funko and Hasbro played their cards at Toy Fair, and now Hot Toys is ready to service high-end collectors: the Hot Toys Stealth Suit Spider-Man 1/6 figure (including Deluxe Version with Molten Man!) is now up for order!

Given the mania and wild aftermarket prices surrounding the sold-out Hot Toys Spider-Man Homecoming sixth scale figures in the aftermath of Avengers Endgame, Hot Toys would have seemed crazy business-wise to not double-dip in the red-and-blue Spidey MMS well. And to little surprise, that’s just what they’re doing: a reissue of the Hot Toys Spider-Man movie figure as a Far From Home Movie Promo is now up for order! It’s a limited exclusive, so if you missed out the first time around, be ready to strike!

UPDATE: Retailers slightly jumped the gun last night, but for those who still need to place their Marvel Legends Spider-Man Far From Home series orders, POs are back online for cases including Mysterio, Hydro-Man, Scorpion, Doppelganger and more!
In addition, there’s Good News/Bad News for those who want single figures! Good: Amazon has singles of Marvel Legends Movie Mysterio, Scorpion, Hydro-Man & co. up for PO individually!
Bad news: They’re currently dated to ship a month after other online retailers. But worth waiting if you want to pick and choose, right?

Spider-Man Far From Home toys are officially allowed to launch today, and that means the (perhaps Hydro-Man induced?) flood is upon us! Hasbro solicited many of their toys overnight, and now it’s Funko’s turn up at bat!

And if you love exclusives, don’t worry–the King of Exclusive has plenty of those lined up as well…

UPDATE 4/22/2019: It’s launch day for Spider-Man Far From Home toys, and all three LEGO sets are now in-stock online with free shipping! It’s been ages since I actually opened up and build a LEGO set, but I do want me some little LEGO Mysterio and Tom Holland minifigures…
