This week has been a bit of a snooze-fest as far as Hasbro Marvel Legends news goes, but just in time to close out the week, we’ve got our very first look at the final packaged exclusive two-pack coming to Toys R Us stores this spring: it’s the 2017 Marvel Legends Mary Jane Watson and All-New All-Different Spider-Man figures box set!

Ever since we first saw him teased in a trailer for Captain America: Civil War over a year ago, Hot Toys collectors have been demanding an MCU Spider-Man sixth scale figure. And today, those wishes will officially become reality when the first one is put up for order! But, well… it’s possible this isn’t quite the Spidey some of those folks were asking for: Hot Toys Spider-Man Homecoming Homemade Suit Version figure is now up for order!

Way back before Christmas, when I walked into a GameStop store and unexpectedly found an unannounced X-Force Deadpool Marvel Gallery statue, I knew I was going to have to keep a close eye on GameStop for future unannounced exclusives. And sure enough, I spotted one at the local ThinkGeek store last week–just days before it was officially announced by Diamond Select Toys! Keep your eyes peeled, because the Marvel Gallery Symbiote Spider-Man statue is now arriving!

Well, it looks like it’s a good thing I didn’t delay too, too long in posting my Kotobukiya New York Toy Fair 2017 photo previews–because the Kotobukiya Star-Lord ARTFX and Spider-Man 2099 ARTFX+ statues are now up for order! Along with the pre-order solicitation comes the official photos, specs and pricing info, so let’s take a look at all the details about these two figures that made their debut at the 2017 Toy Fair last month…

Well, this is an unexpected development! Over the weekend, I discussed Gentle Giant’s new Collector’s Gallery Spider-Man statue as a viable substitute for those who either didn’t have space for Sideshow’s amazing Spider-Man PF statue, or for those who missed out and couldn’t pay the aftermarket prices for it. But it looks like the latter isn’t really a concern anymore (at least for now), because the Sideshow Spider-Man Premium Format Figure is back up for order!

Last year, Sideshow Collectibles released their 1/4 Spider-Man Premium Format Figure, which many collectors are considering the best statue of the character ever. Of course, not everyone has an extra $500 (more like $700-$1200 on the aftermarket now) for the Sideshow Spider-Man. Thankfully, for those collectors who are looking for something a bit smaller–and a whole lot cheaper–Gentle Giant is swinging in with a uniquely cool Spidey of their own: the Collector’s Gallery Spider-Man statue is now up for order!

Kaiyodo has been producing Revoltech figures for many years now, and produced many movie Iron Man figures in that time. But last year they entered the Marvel Comics market with their ultra-fun Ame-Comic Revoltech Deadpool, Spider-Man and Venom figures. I figured it would be very hard for Kaiyodo to follow up the monstrous coolness of their Revoltech Venom figure, and perhaps with that in mind they’re taking a different approach with their next release. Sleek, charming and beautiful, the Revoltech Spider-Gwen is now up for order!

With five of the seven Kotobukiya Spider-Man ARTFX+ statues currently up for order, I was hoping that Koto would surprise us by debuting the two final figures in the line at New York Toy Fair 2016 over the weekend.
Well, I guess one out of two ain’t bad–we’ll have to wait a bit longer to see the prototype of the Venom ARTFX+ statue, but the Kotobukiya Spider-Man 2099 statue has now been revealed!

I didn’t think that there was even a one in a billion chance that Funko–the most prolific collectible toy manufacturer in the land–would come to New York Toy Fair 2017 without something new Marvel-themed to show off. And as it so happens, I was correct, as Funko brought along all of their new Spider-Man Homecoming POP Vinyls and Pint-Size Heroes figures to showcase! And I have to say–these might just be the cutest Peter Parker and Tony Stark figures ever…

Hasbro spoiled us just a little bit for the 2017 Toy Fair when they revealed the three Marvel Legends Spider-Man Homecoming figures from Spider-Man Legends 2017 Wave 2 earlier this month. But it turns out they really were saving the best stuff for the show, including all-new figures of Moon Knight, Tombstone, Captain Universe Spider-Man and more!

For the last several weeks, Hasbro has been teasing us with reveals of all their upcoming Spider-Man Homecoming toys except for the 6″ Marvel Legends that collectors are dying to hear about. But the wait is over, as Habro has finally revealed their Marvel Legends Spider-Man Homecoming figures! And if you were expecting just two figures like we got for Amazing Spider-Man 2, you may be pleasantly surprised…!

Still over five months from the release of Spider-Man: Homecoming in theaters, the merch hype for the movie continues to build! Hasbro announced their non-Legends 6″ Spider-Man Homecoming figures last week, and Bandai Tamashii Nations confirmed they had a license for figures from the movie as well today. And so as not to be left in the dust, Medicom has also made a reveal of their own: the Medicom MAFEX Spider-Man Homecoming figure!

Spider-Man Homecoming is still more than five months away from hitting theaters, but the hype for the movie and the demand for toys is already starting to build! And so, this week Hasbro announced their non-Marvel Legends Spider-Man Homecoming 6″ figures, along with some surprising larger items: not only is Spidey getting a new race car, but the Hasbro Spider-Man Homecoming movie toys will include not one, but two big 6″ scale figure playsets!

My recent resolve to cut back on collecting 1/4 scale statues for spatial and monetary reasons melted away like butter confronted by the Human Torch last month when Prime-1 Studio announced their new line of 1/4 Marvel statues. P1 claimed all of my Sideshow Rewards (and a six month payment plan) from me for their Spider-Man 2099 statue last month, and now their second statue has arrived: the Prime-1 Studio Anti-Venom statue is now up for order!

Earlier this week I previewed Gentle Giant’s smaller and less expensive alternative to Sideshow’s amazing–and astronomically priced–Venom Premium Format Figure. And now, it’s the other most popular Symbiote on the planet’s turn: Carnage! Kotobukiya adds its first villain to the 1:10 Spider-Man statue series with Cletus Kassidy–the Kotobukiya Carnage ARTFX+ statue is now up for order! Those used to the super-low cost of Marvel ARTFX+ figures past may be a mite surprised by the price, though…
