Mattel WWE Legends Series 4 Wonderful, Warrior & Demolition

I was in Kmart a few days ago hunting some Mattel WWE Elite wrestling figures to use for customs and had the good fortune to find WWE Legends Series 4. Knowing these wouldn’t sit long, I picked up a couple Ultimate Warriors (one for Ron), the Demolition team – Ax & Smash (also for Ron) and Mr. Wonderful – Paul Orndorff.

Marvel Legends Deadpool Comparison Pics

Deadpool 011 (1280x720).jpg

When Hasbro announced the winners of their Marvel Legends Fan’s Choice poll wayyyy back in August – and that’s 2009, not this year – there was a very polarized reaction. Cheering were the folks who never had the chance to pick up the original Marvel Legends Deadpool from wave 6 in the Toy Biz run. And jeering were the folks who may already have had Deadpool but were regardless upset that one of the few slots for Marvel Legends, which under Hasbro has been limited to a handful of 2-packs over the course of the past couple of years, was going to be used for a re-do.

Marvel Select Juggernaut Production Pics

Wow. If the Marvel Select Juggernaut isn’t an argument for what digital sculpting can achieve in the hands of skilled sculptors, I don’t know what is.

I know that Gentle Giant has done work the Marvel Select line before – the best example from recent history is the Marvel Select Modern Thor, my pick for best figure of 2008 – but they’ve really gone above and beyond here. Just check out that detail!
