Supersize Your Superheroes With Hasbro's New 12-Inch Marvel Legends Figures

There have been hundreds of Marvel characters introduced in the comics over the years, and it seems like almost every last one has showed up in Hasbro’s Marvel Legends figure line. But you can only squeeze so much detail into a three or six-inch figure, which is why Hasbro is now supersizing its Marvel Legends line to 12-inches.

Available later this year in the fall, we’re going to assume the new Marvel Legends 12-inch line is Hasbro’s attempt to compete with toymakers like Hot Toys who’ve been creating incredibly detailed foot-tall figures for years now. Continue reading

The Spider-Man Deal Between Marvel and Sony Still Isn’t Fully Solidified

The prevailing hypothesis for the reason that we haven’t seen Spider-Man in any of the marketing material for Captain America: Civil War was because they were trying to keep that aspect of the film a secret. Well, it turns out there’s a lot more to it than that.

Thor: Ragnarok got a lot of attention a few months ago for reportedly being Marvel’s darkest movie yet, but with more recent aspects like the movie’s new director, how Odin is going to be treated, and the desire for more comedy in the film, so far it sounds a lot more lighthearted than its title indicates (Ragnarok is the Norse apocalypse). A lot can change between now and when the movie goes into production (and we’re obviously only hearing about small elements at a time, not the whole picture), but the latest statement from Mark Ruffalo — who will co-star as Bruce Banner/The Incredible Hulk opposite Chris Hemsworth’s title hero — seems to be the latest thing that points to the movie being a little lighter than we expected.

The Winter Soldier basically set up his character to be Crossbones in the upcoming movie. The last time we saw him, he was burnt to a crisp, and you could tell in his eyes that he wanted revenge. Well, that’s exactly what he’s coming for in the next film. Continue reading
