To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Marvel Cinematic Universe Hasbro is releasing key figures and characters from each movie in a series of special releases. Some are reissues with better paint, some have new heads and accessories and some are all new figures. Today we are looking at 3 of the early releases in our ML catch up week. Iron Man Mk 7 from the first Avengers Movie, Ronan the Accuser from Guardians of the Galaxy and a Captain America / Crossbones 2 pack from Captain America Civil War. Iron Man and the Cap/Bones pack are great, giving upgraded figs and awesome paint on all 3. The Ronan figure is good until you get it in hand, his shoulder pads are attached to his hood. So if you turn his head, it looks ridiculous. Looking straight on, it’s a really well done figure though. My fav here has to be Cap, the Chris Evans head sculpt and solid paint, metallic paint shield just nails it.
All 3 of these guys are out now and in stock over at Dorkside Toys. Head on over to grab these and other ML 10 pieces, both in stock and pre-order!

Have some back logged Marvel Legends here, going up this week. First up, part of the Apocalypse wave - Apocalypse himself and Wolverine.

Those Apocalypse pictures are awesome. I wish I could get my lighting to work like that. Not to mention whatever you used for the background building is incredible.
Lighting - that's years of trial and error with multiple units, and currently flashes. Can't easily explain that quickly.
The building - is actually the floor to Extreme Sets NELA Level 6 propped up.

I just put it far back so it blurred out. I was looking for something basic and neutral in color, saw that in my bin, and gave it a shot. It wound up working as a destroyed building way better than expected.
Venom Wave Part 1 - Scream, Typhoid Mary, Spider-Ham:

Might have to look into picking up a Typhoid Mary for an X-23 custom. The sculpt and outfit is pretty top notch.
Is that a new katana with Mary? Hope it shows up with a Deadpool figure in the very near future...
All awesome figures, and a really nice quickie photo shoot. I miss Tony's epic tour-de-forces, however, so hopefully he gets a bit more time on his hands soon.
BTW, the Pork-Grind head would fit on the original Marvel Legends Venom figure (from the Absorbing Man wave), correct? Considering picking up an extra Venom for when Spider-Ham comes in the mail and want to go the cheapest route.
Ha, I have 7 galleries done and 17 more figs here to do, so time is not in the cards any time soon
. I spent fancy pants time on the BAF from this wave though, up later this week.
scream looks like she's wearing boots.
Need to get that Typhoid Mary...
That's not Anti-Venom, it's a Poison (specifically the Spider-Man Poison). We got the actual Anti-Venom back in the Hobgoblin-BAF wave.
^^^I was going to say the same. Pretty sure the box said "Poision" on it too.
Head swap. Only want the outfit's sculpted details. So I guess you could say I'm using Typhoid Mary for her body, not her head. Change the legs, swap the heads, swap the hands, and it'd make a nice plain clothes X-23 custom.
I can attest to that. xD
It's an understandable mistake, Poison is a What If? original and a bit forgettable and obscure even among symbiote characters, while Anti-Venom up until a few months ago was appearing quite frequently.
They're a relatively recent modern marvel thing. "What If" hasn't existed in over a decade. Marvel Multiverse is now "What is". Since they've rewritten the origin of all symbiotes, poisons are going to play a bigger factor later.
Spider-ham looks so cool!

And even if they are bringing him back in recent Venom comics, Anti-Venom has been far more recognizable as having the inverted white and black colors for years, so it's an easy mistake to make.

Though "venomized heroes" might be more applicable. Wasn't directly Venomized Avengers though there were a bunch of them too. Really hope they do some of the other poison versions too. Deadpool Poison and Ghost Rider Poison, and many others were really freaking cool. And I'd love a GwenomPool too. She was an interesting breakout character from her ministory. Not really a fan of her Poison outfit though.
Most Poisons take the colors of their heroes non-venomized suit. In Spider-Man's case, he went more anti-venom colors because his spider suit wasn't so much a venomized version of his costume unlike the others. So instead it's inverted from the poison. Or potentially, based off of his future foundation suit.
