Happy Memorial Day! Add Captain America to Your Marvel Legends Collection

I know. If you collect Marvel Legends you’ve already got a metric ton of Captain America figures – but it’s Memorial Day, and instead of coming up with original content for you, I’ve been thinking about friends and relatives who’ve served their countries. But back to the subject at hand – as I considered each of these versions of Cap, I found it interesting that they’ve all got guns. When I was a kid, Cap was the Boy Scout on the Marvel side like Superman was at DC Comics. While Steve Rogers could use the shield as a weapon, its first use was always as a defense for Cap and his allies.

Hasbro Marvel Legends 2013 Wave 2 Pre-Orders Are Up

Pre-orders for the next wave of Marvel Legends are popping up. I saw cases of Hasbro Marvel Legends 2013 Wave 2 on Entertainment Earth and BigBadToyStore. BBTS also has sets of five. The case packouts are listed with eight figures as follows: Scarlet Spider (2), Wrecker, Hawkeye, Black Panther, Jean Grey, with Ultimate Captain America and Punisher re-releases. The sets of five feature one each of just the new characters.

One oddity that I’ve sent a question about to the Hasbro PR team – no mention of the Rocket Raccoon mini-Build-a-Figure. And since I was writing them anyways, I also asked if the running change variants (Deadpool, Dr. Doom, Dani Moonstar, Iron Fist, and Sentry) from the previous waves were still coming. Not cause to worry about an MIA Rocket Raccoon yet – I don’t think the verbiage for previous waves mentioned him – but BBTS did show the Hit Monkey parts in the product pictures.

No product pics shown yet, but you can see more pictures of Marvel Legends wave 2 and more at our Hasbro Marvel Report for Toy Fair 2013.

Free Stuff Giveaway – Hasbro Marvel Legends 2013 Series 1 Ultimate Captain America and X-Force Wolverine

I never did get around to reviewing Ultimate Cap, Protector, and Hit Monkey from the first wave of Hasbro Marvel Legends in 2013 – but my laziness is no excuse for the Free Stuff giveaway that I promised, for the extra carded figures for Ultimate Cap and Wolvie. For this giveaway, I’m trying a new piece of software out to manage it – like usual, you’ll get multiple chances to win by liking on Facebook, tweeting, etc, but this way it’ll keep track in an automated fashion instead of me doing it by hand (with the chance for mistakes along the way). Let me know how you like it.

Also, be sure to check out the reviews I did put up:
