MAFEX Spider-Man Figure Pre-Orders

While the vast majority of headlines in the Marvel toy news world over the past week have appropriately been centered on the happenings from San Diego Comic Con 2019, that doesn’t mean there weren’t some exciting goings-on occurring elsewhere–including at the Medicom Toy Expo in Japan over the weekend!

Marvel Legends Hydro-Man Review (Spider-Man Far From Home Series)

Marvel Legends Spider-Man Hydro Man 6 Inch Figure Review

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?

But if one image isn’t enough for you (and really, it shouldn’t be), Hasbro has now sent out several new hi-res images of all three figures!

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Mysterio Far From Home Movie Figure

Review Marvel Legends Mysterio Far From Home Figure

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?

REVIEW: Marvel Legends Molten Man Build-A-Figure (Far From Home)

Molten Man Review Marvel Legends Spider-Man Far From Home Movie Figure

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?

Hot Toys Spider-Man Far From Home Movie Promo Figure Swinging - Copy

After Diamond Select Toys acquired Gentle Giant Ltd. earlier this year, there were some early trepidations that it might be curtains for some of Gentle Giant’s long-running Marvel lines such as their busts and Skottie Young Babies. Luckily, it’s ended up being business as usual with a fairly steady string of new items being solicited this spring and summer. And now, the latest entries for both those respective lines have appeared: the Gentle Giant Ghost Rider Bust and Animated Spider-Man & Venom Statue are now up for order!
