New 6′ X-Men Figures
— December 31, 2005 Leave a Comment
New 6′ X-Men Figures at Toy News International has news and images of these X-Men figures. From what I can gather, this is a new line of X-Men figures from Toy Biz for 2006 and is meant to replace the X3 movie figure line.
According to this thread over at TNI, the movie production was delayed so Toy Biz decided to produce a line of figures that would combine the characters in the movie with the comic style. The line will probably continue once the movie is over and even is scheduled to contain characters that are not in the movie.
Some of the figures from the first series are simply repaints from the Marvel Legends and now defunct X-Men classics lines. So expect a lot of reuse is what I am saying. The new X-Men line is currently hitting retail shelves at Wal-Mart, I believe.
