Hasbro Wolverine Legends Cases Up For Pre-Order at Entertainment Earth and BigBadToyStore

Wolverine 6-Inch Legends

Entertainment Earth and BigBadToyStore have put up pre-orders for cases of the Marvel Legends series for Wolverine, but there’s still a fair amount of ambiguity. While the cases are said to have Wolverine, Cyclops, Emma Frost and Sabretooth, there are no case pack-outs yet, and no mention of the variants: Wolverine in his X-Force costume, Cyclops in his Phoenix Force costume, and Rogue in place of Emma. We saw the Wolverine Legends variants at Toy Fair.

BBTS has Wolverine Legends cases listed at $159.99, and Entertainment Earth has them at $179.99 – but that includes free shipping. They are listed as arriving in October.

Hasbro SDCC 2013 Exclusives

Hasbro has revealed a bunch more exclusives for San Diego Comic-Con through USAToday.com. The announcement covers exclusives for the major boys’ toys brands, including Marvel and the third (and final) G.I. JOE / Transformers crossover. And keeping with recent years, Hasbro has acknowledged that SDCC isn’t just for boys anymore, with exclusives from My Little Pony and Jem. Both had exclusives at San Diego in 2012, too.

These join the Star Wars Black Series Boba Fett with Han Solo in carbonite exclusive. While I can’t wait to get my hands on these, I can already picture the long lines at the Con.

Border Patrol: Boba Fett Helmet, Marty McFly Head Sculpt, and Marvel Legends Rescue from Iron Man

I usually post Border Patrol on Tuesdays, but am a little behind schedule. Luckily, the auctions I had spotted are still available – this week I found a trio of customs that range from life-size to 1/12 scale.

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.
