Pre-Order the Marvel Legends Thanos Wave at Amazon

If you are looking to pick up the Thanos Build-a-Figure in the next Marvel Legends Infinite Series wave, you may have the best opportunity to do so at Amazon. Figures are available to pre-order individually for $21.99 each and qualify for Prime shipping. They’re due to ship May 25.

To avoid duplicate BAF pieces, pick up five of the six figures. Just pick one of the two Fierce Fighters – Spider-Woman or Hellcat. If you don’t mind an extra Thanos head and arm, get them both.

Check out all the figures in our Toy Fair 2015 Marvel Legends Report. And thanks once again to Paul for another timely heads-up!

Weekend Toy Run: Star Wars Black Series Emperor Palpatine Wave at Amazon

The latest wave of Star War Black Series 6-inch figures is up for pre-order individually at Amazon. This is great for folks who may want to pick and choose who they’re getting from the wave. Each is $22.99 and qualify for Prime 2-day shipping.

For Prequel fans, you can never have enough Clone Troopers. Original Trilogy fans will want to pick up Emperor Palpatine. And Luke and Han are great for army builders since they can wear their Stormtrooper helmets – but don’t be disappointed that Luke isn’t a little short to be a Stormtrooper. I’m sure customizers will figure out how to fix that easily enough.

Big thanks to our friend Rodney for giving us the heads-up!

You Wanted More Orcs? Orc Army Builders Unlocked for Mythic Legions Kickstarter

As the Mythic Legions Kickstarter counts down to the end of its funding stage (we’re at under 5 days left), backers are blowing through new stretch goals before the Four Horsemen can reveal all the details for them. If that sounds familiar, that’s because it also happened yesterday! This may be the biggest one yet, though – supporters of the project have been clamoring for an Orc Legion Builder since funding opened. Now you can add them as singles (as many as you want) or in six-packs with a price break (almost one Orc for free!)

But that’s not all. A second weapons pack was also unlocked, with a mace, halberd, and an Orc sword ( the Four Horsemen haven’t had the chance to show them yet.) And as a bonus, Urzokk, one of the Orc champions, will come with an alternate war paint head. Since parts are interchangeable between figures, that just means more customization options for you.

Think the Four Horsemen have any more surprises in store?

New Stretch Goal Announced and Unlocked for Four Horsemen Mythic Legions Kickstarter

With under a week left and the original funding target and stretch goals surpassed, the Four Horsemen’s Mythic Legions Kickstarter project has picked up momentum – and is now moving faster than they can supply updates. After revealing Azhar and Zazhar, the demonic pair of figures that had been unlocked sight unseen, the Four Horsemen posted a new stretch goal for the Kickstarter-exclusive Sir Valgard and a weapons accessory pack… which was promptly unlocked.

But there’s more to come. The Four Horsemen have revealed artwork for a Mythic Legions comic book, and teased another stretch goal that will include a second weapons pack and perhaps more characters. I’m hoping we’ll see an orc army-builder. Stay tuned!
