Action Figures/ Toys

Growing up I had a Playstation and I remember playing Tekken 2 & 3 very fondly (especially 3) Since then I have played most entries in the franchise and they are still highly entertaining and fun to play. When it was recently announced that Bandai Namco would be doing Tekken figures I was absolutely over

This past week NECA has dropped some SDCC Exclusive Teasers for their TMNT Movie figures. The first was Keno with his pizza moped. The other reveal was a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III teaser of the four turtles in their Samurai get-ups. The Keno figure has been teased for months and I know many fans

West Coast Avengers was a fresh and exciting concept in 1984 before there had been more Avengers off-shoot teams and comic book series than anyone can count. Fans still remember the original WCA comics fondly—which is why Hasbro is celebrating the team’s legacy by opening pre-orders for a new Amazon Exclusive Marvel Legends West Coast

Mantis was a controversial choice to be the Build-A-Figure way back in the Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 series six years ago, but in the 2023 Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 Cosmo wave, Mantis finally gets the single-packed shelf presence at retail that she deserves. Is the new GOTG

Recently NECA has revealed some new horror products with the recent reveals of the Dog Thing from The Thing, The Nun Ultimate Valak figure, and Toony Terror Jigsaw with Billy. They revealed the Dog Thing along with the Ultimate Feral Predator. Also, I should add that they are re-releasing the Gremlins II Bat Gremlin and

Earlier this week Hasbro put the Marvel Legends Spider-Man The Animated Series Green Goblin & Mary Jane two-pack. They revealed this two-pack a few months ago. I have to admit it’s one I have been looking forward to as the Green Goblin figure is one I have wanted for some time since Hasbro started doing

Kraglin is the sort of character that—played by James Gunn’s brother or not—I’d have insisted anyone who said we’d ever see on retail store shelves was lying. But 9 years later, here we are—and here Marvel Legends Kraglin is on the pegs at Target. Kraglin is also available shipping from online retailers now—is this fourth

It may seem like just yesterday that the Toys R Us Exclusive Marvel Legends Dark Phoenix & Cyclops two-pack was in stores, but it was actually six long years (and one Toys R Us bankruptcy) ago. Prices for those figures long ago went wild on the aftermarket, and many fans were left without perhaps the

Hasbro is taking the slow approach to building the classic Guardians of the Galaxy team in Marvel Legends 6” figure form. Six years after Vance Astro made the scene in the 2017 Titus Series, he’s finally getting some backup this year in the form of a Target Exclusive Yondu figure! Is the long-awaited classic archer

Diamond Select Toys never fails to offer Marvel collectors something fresh and exciting in their monthly solicitations, and this month does not break from that norm, with three unexpected new additions to older lineups! New pre-orders are now available for Marvel Select Classic Captain America, Marvel Gallery Kingpin and a Marvel Animated Skottie Young Invisible

Marvel Select has been on a bit of a hot streak over the last half year, delivering stellar releases such as Super Skrull, Red Hulk and Vision. Things have been a little slow on the X-front, but earlier this month DST released one of the biggest X-Men villains of all! The Marvel Select Apocalypse figure

Yesterday Hasbro held a panel at Star Wars Celebration 2023 and showed off some upcoming products for the Star Wars & Indiana Jones lines. Their Star Wars reveals they were stretched across the Black Series & Vintage Collection. Though I should mention the day before they announced the Black Series The Bad Batch Series 2

During Star Wars Celebration 2023, Disney showed off a brand new trailer for Indiana Jones & The Dial of Destiny and Hasbro showed off some new Adventure Series figures which are Wave 2 and a few exclusives. I was honestly more excited for the Adventure Series reveals than the Black Series as Adventure Series has

Earlier this week Hasbro revealed some new products to coincide with the fifth episode of The Mandalorian. There was a reveal for The Vintage Collection and another for the Black Series. For The Vintage Collection, the reveal was a Tusken Raider four-pack, and for the Black Series a Pyke Soldier which both featured very heavily

Just yesterday Hasbro dropped a surprise figure announcement for their Marvel Legends line with the reveal of Doctor Strange In The Multiverse of Madness Scarlet Witch. I have to say I’ve really been looking forward to a MOM Scarlet Witch figure in the Marvel Legends line for some time, especially as the Disney Plus wave

2023 is a big year for the Avengers, who are celebrating their 60th Anniversary—and Hasbro is going big themselves with a slew of Avengers Marvel Legends 60th Anniversary figures to commemorate the occasion! There’s a bevy more 60th Anniversary Avengers on the way, but Hasbro has kicked things off with pre-orders for Avengers Legends First

On Tuesday Hasbro revealed two new products for the Vintage Collection and Black Series lines to tie in with the latest episode of The Mandalorian. Both of these figures are based on their appearances in The Book of Boba Fett. For the Vintage Collection, we get a figure of Jedi Academy Luke Skywalker (similar to

Earlier this Month Hasbro had a live stream showcasing some figures for the Avengers 60th anniversary and now one of those figures is available to pre-order. It’s the Mark 1 Iron Man which I think is Hasbro’s first, at least in the modern line version of the Mark 1 suit. Which does look accurate and

During SDCC last year NECA showed off two more of their upcoming Dungeons & Dragons Ultimate figures with them being Strongheart & Zarak which I did get a good look at during my visit there and these galleries showcase these figures very well. Just like Warduke & Grimsword, these two figures look amazing and incredibly

Spiral is one of those characters I could have happily gone my whole life without buying an action figure of… if she hadn’t been a playable character in the Marvel vs. Capcom video game series. Playing a few minutes of her as a mediocre character there did what decades of comic book appearances as Mojo’s

Earlier this week Hasbro revealed two new figures, one for the Vintage Collection and for the Black Series. For The Vintage Collection, they revealed Cad Bane from The Book of Boba Fett, and for the Black Series a Luke Skywalker & Grogu two-pack from The Book of Boba Fett. It’s really nice to see a

Secret Invasion is inching closer to premiering on Disney+ each day, and that means Skrull-related tie-in comics and toys are starting to re-emerge as well. A modern Secret Invasion comic book limited series just ended, Hasbro has several Skrull Marvel Legends figures lined up for the fall and Diamond Select Toys just started shipping the

Hasbro revealed an all-new Marvel Legends Spider-Man wave last week, but played coy by not showing the packaging or mentioning the series Build-A-Figure at all. And now it’s clear why: the 2023 Marvel Legends Spider-Man “Retro” wave is now up for pre-order, including no BAF and a mix of vintage-styled and all-new cardback packaging! Individual

Longshot is one of those classic X-Men characters that you can count on showing up every few years in a supporting role (most often in some rehashed Mojo plotline), hanging around for a short tenure and then slinking back into his off-page status quo. I don’t mind Longshot’s guest appearances, but I’ve long since given

It’s been a long, long time coming, but Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will finally be hitting movie theaters the first week of May 2023. And that means that for the first time in 6 years, we’ll have a new Hasbro Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy figures series on store shelves as well!

Phase 4 of the MCU doesn’t seem like it’s likely to go down as anybody’s favorite, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe will keep chugging along, with this week’s Ant-Man 3 (Quantumania) hitting theaters this week. And as almost always, a new Marvel movie means a new themed wave of Hasbro action figures! The Ant-Man Marvel

When Hasbro revealed the Black Panther Wakanda Forever Marvel Legends Attuma Series figures, there was clearly something glaringly absent: the titular character of the movie—the new Black Panther. Likely for secrecy reasons, a Shuri Black Panther was not available at launch. But though she was lagging weeks behind, the MCU female Black Panther ML figure

Hasbro didn’t hit us with a complete blitzkrieg of new Marvel Legends 2023 waves during this first month of the year, limiting themselves to just a singular new Build-A-Figure Series solicited (the X-Men Legends Ch’od BAF Series). But that doesn’t mean Hasbro wasn’t busy, as they instead announced a bunch of one-off releases (and put

Earlier this week, Hasbro showed off some brand new Marvel Legends figures, one being a classic Yondu which will be a Target exclusive, and a fan channel exclusive containing two Squadron Supreme members Hyperion & Doctor Spectrum members. It looks like the Classic Guardians of The Galaxy figures will be store exclusives, which is annoying

Diamond Select Toys has been on a bit of a hot streak over the last year with their Marvel Select figures series. Not every figure has been a winner (I’m looking at -you-, Miles Morales), but by and large there have been a lot more hits than misses. And this week, I’ll review a few
