Marvel Comics Action Figures!!!

Figured since Ice Worrier started a DC thread, we needed to have some Marvel love too!

As Iron Man is my #1 favorite Super Hero; I have a few figures featuring his likeness

Iron Man Shelf pt 4

The Defenders!



Cosmic Heroes and Hank Pym!

Hasbro made a 6" Baron Zemo II (actually he'd be XIII) but it's in the modern costume I'm not fond of. I've found that its floppy gloves are removable so it'd mostly be a matter of me adding some chincilla trim to make it the classic Zemo costume. Hasbro, however, has already made 3.75" of classic Baron Zemo II so they could tool up these costume accessories if they decide to make a classic variant in 6" scale. Of course Hasbro has been spotty with releasing planned variants lately. So should I just modify the existing 6" Zemo or should I wait to see if they release an official version of my preferred costume?

I'm thinking it will probably be a long time before we get another 6" Zemo 2, EMP, so customizing is probably the way to go.

Very nice! I used to have a HUGE collection of Marvel Legends. But then I switched to Marvel Universe when Hasbro basically abandoned Legends. It's nice to see them back, but I've managed to stay away from them and sold most of my Legends off.

The final series of 2013 Legends before they switched to movie tie-in waves didn't make it out yet. I've heard rumors that instead of just releasing it now that they have a new strategy that most of the figures would be repurposed for an SDCC set. They could do a Masters of Evil set with Blizzard, Batroc, Tigershark, Radioactive Man, Songbird (even though she's in her Thunderbolts outfit), & Bulldozer (the MIA variant for Wrecker). A previous SDCC Marvel Universe set was MOE with classic Baron Zemo, so this set could include a 6" version of that. (I guess I should wait for Toy Fair or whenever SDCC items are announced to commit to a custom of him.)
The Jubilee BAF from that series could be moved to the X-Men Legends tie-in for DOFP along with the cancelled Rogue from last year's Wolverine Legends. Agent Venom could be moved to a Spider-Man series.
The Iron Man wave with movie Mandarin, Rescue, & movie concept War Machine is also MIA.

Yeah, that KILLS me...the Rescue was at the very top of my want list, being a huge Iron Man fan.

Blizzard, Batroc, Tigershark, and Radioactive Man were 4 villains that I could not believe they were actually doing! I certainly hope they show up at some point, especially Tiger Shark!!

Impressive collection, Gene! Definitely got to give Marvel some love!

One question regarding this shot:

That movie-based unmasked Iron Man Mark II figure in the front center--from when and what line is that one? Because I've been wanting a decent unmasked movie-based Tony Stark figure and that one looks pretty darn good. I might be interested in tracking one down.

Thanks, Biggles

All the ones with the tags in front are Super-posable figures from Kaiyodo's Revoltech line. If you go on eBay and search for Revoltech Iron Man you'll see what's out there. The Mk II came with the Tony Stark head which I think is an excellent RTD likeness

The name "Revoltech" has always amused me.

I'm kinda surprised how rare Mk IV toys are (aside from 3"). The crazy aftermarket markups should tell Marvel that it deserves more screentime. I can't stand it when they mix gold & silver together like on Mk VI & VII or have silver battledamage since the suit is made of a lighteight gold alloy in the movieverse.

Ah, I see! Thank you! I'll have to have a look for that!

Oh, MAN...these are GREAT!!!

As much as I want these, I'd easily have traded them for an x-men wave instead

Oh come on; like there haven't been 10 trillion X-Men action figures released previously....

Lets give the Guardians a chance to shine.

An x-men wave was my most wanted for this year. I really wanted new movie figures and new comic ones (ideally.. NOW cyclops, multiple man, magik, the unreleased white phoenix..)

There will probably be an X-Men Legends line to tie into the DoFP movie. The Rogue that got bumped from the Wolverine Legends wave should be in it even though she's been cut from the movie. I wouldn't mind if there are no movie figures in it as their costumes look mostly dire.
There are 2 figures not shown from that GotG line. One of the remaining figures has to be Ronan the Accuser. The other could be Nebula, Yondu, Korath, a Nova Corpsman, Thanos, a Badoon warrior, or the Collector

The other 2 are Iron Man and Nova, or at least thats what was leaked a while ago..

..and the All-New x-men set appears to be the movie tie-in   

I'm crazy excited about the Guardians figures!

fantastic collection

When ToyFair officially starts I'm sure we'll see plenty more products.

We didn't   

Nova's great, though

Spoiler:

I can't believe they didn't make a 6" figure of the main villain again! Cosmic repaint Iron Man sucks! Nova is cool, but I'd prefer his gold to be more metallic.
Hopefully they will reveal some more things over the rest of the event instead of keeping everything mum until SDCC.

This is it until sdcc. I'm curious what happened to the comic starlord from last year, since there are no running changes for these apparently..

Also, watch that Iron Man get packed 3 per case.
