San Diego Comic Con 2011 – Hasbro Exclusive Marvel Press Pics

Hasbro devoured our worlds off with last year’s Marvel Universe Galactus exclusive, and they’re ready to destroy all mutants with their follow-on, the Sentinel. Joe Quesada again provides the artwork on the suitcase packaging. HasbroToyShop will have this (and all the SDCC exclusives) in limited quantities after the show, but I imagine these will be hard to come by. The Sentinel will also be available in a retail version with a variant deco, and it will come with a bonus Marvel Universe Wolverine. I prefer the SDCC deco.

The past two years we also got Mighty Muggs exclusives for Marvel, but Hasbro’s gone Mini on Muggs, with an Avengers set (including a Mighty-sized Giant Man) and Spider-Man with removable cloth mask.

Marvel Universe Captain America: The First Avenger Captain Britain, Crossbones, and Bucky Cap

Here I go feeding Ron’s 4″ habit again! I came across these little guys from Marvel Universe Captain America: The First Avenger Wave 2 on a recent visit to TRU and, being the swell guy I am, checked in with fearless leader, Ron to see if he was in need of any of them. He was. But before I sent these off, I snapped some pics for all you Marvel Universe fans!

Marvel Universe 2011 Wave 2 Gladiator and Cable

I’ve been excited about this wave (MU 2011 Wave 2 or as others call it, Wave 13) ever since I saw the preview pics from Hasbro, mostly because this wave introduces the new fully articulated Cyclops body (I’ll have pics of him in the 2nd installment!) and an equally nicely articulated Cable. I managed to pick up Cable, Gladiator, Apocalypse and Cyclops so I thought I’d go ahead and share some pics!

Note: Pardon the lack of in-package pics, I ripped them off the package as soon as I got home!

Onto the pics!!

Marvel Universe Giant-Size X-Men Quick Pics

MU GS X-Men 004.JPG

To spread some more Marvel love, here are some Quick Pics of the newly released Marvel Universe Giant-Size X-Men set!

For those who want to know the particulars, I picked up this set at my local TRU for the sum of $34.99 plus tax. The set is actually for Ron who is having a hard time finding it out on the Left Coast. I normally shun the 4″ Devil and all his tiny works but for a good friend like Ron, I risked the chance of falling victim to the allure of MU.
