UK TOYFAIR: What’s Happening With Marvel Legends? at action-figure.com reports Marvel news from the UK Toy Fair that is going on right now. I was not aware the UK Toy Fair would be this week, but I think I remember that it is normally held around this time every year.
On to Marvel Legends news! The representatives from that site were allowed in but were not allowed to take pictures. Here are some of the things they saw, which you can read in full by visiting the link above.
- Apparently, once Hasbro has the line, they will be doing Marvel Mr Potato Heads similar to the Darth Tater from Star Wars.
- They showed Marvel Legends Icons 12″ figures, Ultimate Captain America, Iron Man, Thor and Green Phoenix.
- They had 2 of the Marvel Legends Face Off Twin Packs on display. Kingpin vs. Daredevil has a Kingpin in a black suit and a Daredevil with his hood pulled back to show him wearing his glasses. The other set was Hulk vs Leader.
- They had Marvel Legends 13, and the build-a-figure is Onslaught.
- They had Marvel Legends 14, and the author couldn’t recall the name of the build-a-figure. There is also X-babies with this wave as an extra pack-in with each figure. These were described as a 1″ non articulated piece.
- They also had the new X-Men line as well as the Spider-man line.
- From the Spider-man line, they showed Hydro-Man, Shocker, Mad Jack and a stealth Venom.
My thoughts on this, the Daredevil 2 pack he describes is probably the variant version. I am not very excited about X-babies, but I am excited about the 12″ figures and the Onslaught build-a-figure. I can’t wait until Toy Fair where we can see actual pictures!
Update: I found a link to pictures of more Marvel Legends products, including the Monsters box set, the Young Avengers box set and the Marvel Masterworks line, courtesy of action-figure.com again.
