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.

Hot Toys Reveals G.I. Joe Retaliation Roadblock

Hot Toys G.I. JOE Roadblock 1

Roadblock joins Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow in the Hot Toys line-up for G.I. JOE: Retaliation, and damn, you can almost smell what the Rock is cooking with that head sculpt – it’s about as good coming out of the chute as I’ve seen from Hot Toys. He comes with weapons that snap into his brass knuckles – the toy-inspired gimmick that didn’t fit the character to me, but you can ignore it and just have a kick-ass Roadblock.

You can pre-order Roadblock at Sideshow Toys or BigBadToyStore for $219.99. He’s expected to ship in December this year.


G.I. Joe Retaliation: 1/6th scale Roadblock Collectible Figure

In view of the popularity of the Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow collectible figure, Hot Toys is proud to present a new addition to our MMS series from the action packed G.I. Joe Retaliation – the 1/6th scale Roadblock Collectible Figure. Roadblock is a force to be reckoned with and the Cobra should think twice before taking on the great one.

Based on the iconic brand from Hasbro, the movie-accurate collectible is specially crafted based on the image of Dwayne Johnson as Roadblock in the movie, featuring a highly detailed head sculpt, finely tailored costume and weapons.

Marvel Legends Executioner 1 Marvel Legends Executioner 2 Marvel Legends Executioner 3

Marvel Legends Executioner by Stevid – while the Wrecking Crew might be a bit oversized, I hope that when Hasbro finally gets around to making the Executioner that they reuse that body – in the meantime, here’s your chance to add this essential Thor baddie to your collection – ends May 22, 2013 18:30:15 PDT
