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!

Toy Fair 2015: Square Enix Launches Play Arts Kai Marvel Variants Line

Square Enix has broadened their non-video game licenses to include the Marvel Universe, by virtue of their Play Arts Kai Variants line. Variants reimagine characters with hyper-stylized designs. With their DC, Square Enix used Variants to extend their DC lines beyond the movie and Arkham lines they already had in place. Marvel Variants, in contrast, allows Square Enix to skirt the edges of existing comic book or movie licenses that may belong to other licensees.

The Marvel Variants line begins with Spider-Man, Iron Man, and Thor, and Square Enix also teased an upcoming Venom in silhouette. With prices creeping up, the DC Variants are now in the $95 and up range from $60 – 70 a couple of years ago. If Marvel comes in at these prices, what’s your interest in the new line?

Toy Fair 2015: Hasbro Marvel Legends Video Fly-Bys

You may have noticed in some of our Toy Fair 2015 coverage a new feature we’re trying out – the AFP fly-by video. I’ve said before that I’m not that big of a fan of video reviews, so the Fly-By doesn’t follow the standard video review approach. No over-the-top voiceovers, no intro theme music, and no frills – just the action figures.

Toy Fair 2015: It’s Not All About Legends for Hasbro’s Marvel Team

As much as I’m digging on Marvel Legends for 2015, I’d be remiss if I didn’t highlight the other expressions from Hasbro’s Marvel team before shutting down for the night. In figures, the ones nearest to my heart are the Marvel Universe and Marvel Titan Series figures.

Toy Fair 2015: Marvel Legends Report

I don’t want to jinx it, but the last time I felt like this coming out of a Marvel Legends showroom was the year that Toy Biz announced that Marvel had signed the licensing agreement with Hasbro. They had ambitious plans for that final year, and it showed. If they were going to let the license go, they were going to go out with a bang.

This time around, it feels like it’s Hasbro that’s got something to prove – that Marvel Legends is their line, and no one can do it better. How do you think they did?
