SDCC 2013: Interview with Hasbro’s Marvel Team

Sandman and I met with Adam Biehl (Vice President, Global Marvel Line at Hasbro) and Dwight Stall (Senior Marvel Product Design Manager, Hasbro) today for a brief conversation about Marvel Legends and the related 6-inch Marvel action figure lines. We talked about the health and direction of the Marvel lines, issues with distribution and the fate of running change variants, and more.

This was a great lead-in to the Hasbro Marvel panel, which we will be posting in full later this morning.

SDCC 2013: Hot Toys at the Sideshow Collectibles Booth

I had been wanting to get to the Sideshow booth to check out the Hot Toys displays – it’s always one of the highlights of SDCC for me. I got my chance yesterday afternoon – and would have had an Instapics post up sooner, if it wasn’t for the massive congestion in the cellular network. All afternoon, a lot of folks in the San Diego Convention Center were having trouble making calls and sending texts, not to mention uploading pictures to the AFPRon Instagram account. 😀

Despite frustrations trying to keep connected, the Hot Toys showing did not disappoint. As you might expect, there was a ton of Avengers and Iron Man figures on display, but when you add in Robocop, G.I. JOE, Lone Ranger, and the growing DC licenses, there was something good for everybody.

Hot Toys Reveals Three “Toy Fairs” Exclusives for 2013 – Captain America, Superman, and G.I. JOE

Hot Toys had previously shown us one image of the Star Spangled Man version of Captain America from the First Avenger movie, and now we’ve got the full details for him and the two other “Toy Fairs” exclusives for the year.

Hot Toys Reveals First of 2013 Exclusives – Captain America Movie Star Spangled Man

Hot Toys spent their Fourth of July revealing the first of their 2013 exclusives – the “Star Spangled Man with a Plan” from Captain America: the First Avenger. It’s got a great first appearance feel to it, even if you weren’t a fan of the movie. I loved it though, even if the USO segment that featured this costume was a little long.

I’m sure Sideshow Collectibles will get an allotment of these figures, like they did with the Hot Toys Rescue Captain America exclusive from last year.

Happy Fourth of July!

There’s nothing more patriotic than Captain America running down Hydra goons on his Harley Davidson.
