Eh, folks, listen up! Hasbro’s got big news, and it’s about those Marvel Legends figures they make, you know, the ones folks love collecting. They’re doin’ it up special for Marvel’s 85th anniversary. Can you believe it’s been that long? They’ve gone and added a whole bunch of new figures to celebrate. From the sound of it, these aren’t just any old figures; they’re pullin’ from all corners of Marvel history. You got characters from the old comics, some from recent stories, and all sorts in between. Makes ya think they’ve left no stone unturned!
Now, what really got folks talkin’ was how Hasbro did this whole reveal. They put on a big online event—what they call a fanstream—where they showed off the new figures. And lemme tell ya, fans ate it up! They didn’t hold back, either. It wasn’t just about a few here and there. Nope! They showed off a bunch, like they were unloadin’ a toy chest right there on the screen. Saw some figures from the New York Comic-Con, too. Guess it’s all part of showin’ love to the fans who keep this stuff goin’.
And it ain’t just the typical fellas, neither. They’re bringin’ in some real heavy-hitters. Ever heard of SKAAR? Yep, Hulk’s boy, and he’s lookin’ mean as ever. Then there’s Warbird, who’s got that warrior look goin’ on strong. From what I hear, they’re also throwin’ in some of the classic heroes that folks can’t get enough of, like Wolverine and Deadpool. Those two always seem to steal the spotlight. At the San Diego Comic-Con, they even gave folks a sneak peek at Wolverine, so you know they’re pullin’ out all the stops for this 85th celebration.
What’s Behind All This Marvel Legends Fuss?
Now, in case you didn’t know, Marvel Legends ain’t somethin’ new. They’ve been around since 2002, when they first got started as a part of the Spider-Man Classics line. Then, wouldn’t ya know it, they just kept growin’. Toy Biz made the early ones, and then Hasbro took the reins in 2006 after makin’ a big ol’ deal with Marvel for a cool $205 million. That’s when they really started to make these things special, with all different sizes and characters. You got yer small ones, yer big ones, even some that come with extra parts or what they call “Build-A-Figure” pieces. Collectors love that, ya see. Makes it like a treasure hunt!
New Announcements Keep On Comin’
These new announcements just keep pourin’ in, especially with that Pulse Con event Hasbro put on. They even showed off a new Marvel Legends Sentinel, one of those big robots that’s been a part of the X-Men stories for ages. Folks got excited about that one, ‘cause who wouldn’t want one of those giants in their collection? And don’t get me started on the fan-favorite characters—they’ve got all sorts, from the heavy-hitters to some of the lesser-known ones that comic book readers just love. They even got characters in there that tie into the new movie, The Marvels, comin’ up soon.
Why This 85th Year’s So Big
Now, why are they makin’ such a fuss about 85 years, you ask? Well, Marvel’s been a part of people’s lives for a long time, and these figures are a way for fans to hold onto a piece of that. There’s somethin’ special about seein’ yer favorite hero sittin’ on a shelf or in a case, knowin’ they’re right there with ya. It’s not just for kids, either. Plenty of grown-ups love these things. They’ve got figures from all over the Marvel Universe, from the big names like Spider-Man and Iron Man to ones you don’t see as often. Seems Hasbro knows just how to keep folks comin’ back for more, year after year.
Figures Comin’ Soon to a Store Near You
So, if you’re wonderin’ where to get these figures, just keep yer eyes peeled. They’ll be rollin’ into stores soon enough, and from the looks of it, these ain’t the kind to stay on shelves long. With the way fans talk about ‘em, they’re gonna go like hotcakes. Best be ready if you’re thinkin’ about addin’ one of these new Marvel Legends to yer collection. And don’t wait too long! These things have a way of disappearin’ faster than a jackrabbit in a hay field.
All in all, this 85th anniversary line’s shapin’ up to be somethin’ real special for Marvel fans everywhere. So whether yer new to collectin’ or got a shelf full already, there’s somethin’ for everyone in this lineup. Hasbro’s sure got a knack for makin’ folks happy, I’ll give ‘em that. Here’s to another 85 years of Marvel and all the legends they keep bringin’ to life!
