Pre-orders are now live for a new Guardians of the Galaxy – Groot Evolution Marvel Legends Figure Set. The new 3-pack includes an adult Groot, a Sapling Groot, and a Baby Groot. Each figure is based on one of his appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Adult Groot stands at 9″ tall, while both Sapling Groot and the potted Baby Groot stand about 1″ tall. The set is priced about $22 (depending on where you order) and is scheduled for release in September. Pre-order at the links below, and see new photos after the jump.
From potted prodigy to towering tree-like humanoid, Groot uses powers of regeneration to become a legendary defender of intergalactic justice.
Groot gets a growth sprout – er, spurt – with this Groot Evolution 3-pack from the Marvel Legends Series, featuring 3 Groot figures in 3 different sizes. Imagine giving the galaxy something to root for with the 9-inch Groot figure, modeled after Groot in his adult form. Then, pretend to meet Groot as just a sapling with the included 2 1-inch Groot figures, which stand as reminders that inside every tree there is…an even smaller tree.
Featuring 3 Groot figures with movie-inspired design and detail, the Groot Evolution pack from the Marvel Legends Series is an epic addition to any collection of legendary heroes.

Marvel Legends - Evolution of Groot Figure Set
Pre-ordered! I have the build-a-figure version, but I skipped the toysrus version. I felt I didn’t need the baby groot figures. I need the baby groot figures.
Not a oomplete "evolution" without the teen Groot.
I mean, I love Groot! Don't get me wrong...But, there is nothing different... no new paint from the first release... womp womp... This really is just a straight up repack..
Would have been more impressed if it was a true "Evolution of Groot" and included the Teenage Groot from Avengers...
Teen groot would have been cool,but the packaging would need to be way bigger and since teen groot is an articulated figures it would have shot this set to $40-$45. Hard sell at that price.
I'd been holding out hope that Figuarts would release theirs, but doesn't seem like that'll ever happen, along with all those other great prototypes they showed. I'll probably pick this up, maybe try to touch up the paint if I can.
I remember this was the first TRU exclusive that my stores limited to one per customer so I had a real easy time finding it. Obviously a pass for me since I got it back in 2017 but I'd like if they keep up this trend of redistributing TRU exclusives through online stores so people can get another shot at items like the Dark Phoenix pack.
