AFP Free Stuff Giveaway – SDCC 2013 Exclusive Marvel Universe Deadpool Corps Taco Truck

If you’ve been following AFP for a while, you probably know that I love Deadpool – so when I had a chance, I bought the San Diego Comic-Con exclusive Marvel Universe Deadpool Corps that comes ingeniously packaged in a taco truck. But as cool as the taco truck is, I’ve found that I just can’t get by my low regard for the comic book mini-series that spawned this 6-pack of of Deadpool, Lady Deadpool, Kidpool, Dogpool, Squirrelpool, and the Champion of the Universe. I mean, just typing that in has me shaking my head with disdain. So, instead of keeping this exclusive, I’ve decided to put it up for grabs in a special AFP Free Stuff giveaway.

(Note: Marvel Legends Deadpool, who is confused at my decision to buy something just to decide to give it away, is not part of this giveaway. Him, I’m keeping!)

It’s easy to enter, so while there can only be one winner of this contest, I hope that my dislike of a comic book will result in you getting your hands on a sold-out San Diego Comic-Con exclusive. And if you’re already a fan of the AFP Facebook page or follow the AFP Twitter account, you can un-like and un-follow and then re-like and re-follow using the contest widget, for those extra shots at winning this giveaway. Spread the word and good luck!

Taco Truck Packaging Best Thing about Marvel Universe Deadpool Corps SDCC Exclusive

I’ve been trying to get myself pumped up about Hasbro’s Marvel Universe exclusive for San Diego Comic-Con. I love Deadpool, so you’d think that six versions of Deadpool in taco truck packaging would be right up my alley. While the packaging truly is glorious, it’s tough to see this as more than a bunch of missed opportunities. Deadpool himself looks to be recycled from one of the figures back from Wolverine Origins, and while they added the floaties (a great touch) you’d think if they were going to add an alternate head, they could have included Headpool / Zombie Deadpool. Lady Deadpool and the Champ are nice representations of the comic book characters, but I really do hate the book – Rob Liefeld artwork – need I say more?

MARVEL UNIVERSE 3.75-Inch DEADPOOL CORPS Special Edition Figure Set

(Approximate Retail Price $49.99; Ages 4 & up; Available through HasbroToyShop.com, Booth #3329 at Comic-Con International in San Diego)

“Any evil that threatens the universe can eat lead. For the rest of us…tacos!” The Merc with a Mouth teams up with his favorite allies — alternate universe versions of himself — in this highly collectible and unique action figure set. The 3.75-inch MARVEL UNIVERSE figures of DEADPOOL, LADY DEADPOOL and CHAMPION OF THE UNIVERSE, along with figurines of KIDPOOL, DOGPOOL and SQUIRRELPOOL come packaged in individual “taco shells,” all inside a collectible taco truck package! Following the convention, a limited number will be available on HasbroToyShop.com.

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.
