Star Wars Black Series Hyper Real Darth Vader

Impressive. Most Impressive. Hyper Real is Hasbro’s new take on adult collector action figures. It features a metal skeleton under a seamless silicone body to give us the characters with no visible joints. Coupled with higher end soft goods, attention to detail with the paint, these are upper tier offerings. They are in the 8 inch scale, so they won’t work with existing Star Wars Black Series 6 inch figures. Hasbro sent through a slightly early copy of Darth Vader, their first release in this new format. We’ve run him through the motions and have over 80 images showing off what he can do. Read on for those and some thoughts after the break!

Marvel Legends 80 Retro

Marvel Legends is pumping out more figures than most can handle over the last couple years, so you need to pick your battles and themes and roll with it. This is a good thing. With the MCU in full swing, they haven’t held back the classic comic line ups either. Case in point are several recent releases – the Marvel 80 Years assortments and the Retro X-Men waves. Most of the Marvel 80 Years figures are vintage renditions of the characters. Today’s look include single packed Captain America, Thor and Iron Man along with the Hulk vs. Wolverine 2 pack. There is also a sweet Colossus vs. Juggernaut set floating around which we didn’t pick up yet. If you combine the 3 singles and the Hulk set, you have a really well done classic Avengers core. As these gems are floating around on shelves, the retro X-Men wave has also hit, featuring ToyBiz inspired decos of the X-Men, complete with retro packaging. While all are well done, people are hyped on Storm and Silver Samurai. Storm does not disappoint.

We’ve run them all through a photo session, read on to check out over 50 HD shots courtesy of Hasbro! These guys are out now at select retailers. Hit our sponsors below along with brick and mortar spots and Amazon.

Black Series Wave 21 22

Time for a little catch up with our Star Wars Black Series galleries.  We’ve been slowing down of late, as has Hasbro as they prepare for the probable onslaught of Rise of Skywalker merch set to drop later in the year.  Today we are taking a look at a couple figures from the last two waves, wave 20 and 21 – Ep 1 Obi Wan Kenobi, Battle Droid, Ep 2 Padme, Rebels Ezra and Chopper, and Solo Dryden Vos.

I’ve been looking forward to Ezra and Chopper since they announced them, I’ve enjoyed the Black Series take on the Rebels crew and am glad to get almost the whole team in place.  Only one missing is Zeb, which is a big piece.  Hopefully they can find justification for him and get it done down the line.  Until then for me he’s just off in another room taking care of business. The rest are  well done for what they are, and really depends which era you are into.  Padme’s likness is spot on, as is Ep 1 Obi Wan.  The Photo Real tech is really coming along.  Obi Wan makes a re-issue of Qui Gon with an upgraded head necessary, and I’d gladly take it.   The battle droid – well constructed, can do the transport mode well, and can hold a stance even with the smaller frame.  Vos – well executed, especially with the face scars, but I am just not hype on the character.

Bottom line – All great roster fillers for different eras of Star Wars.  Pick your poison, fill your ranks, and prepare for TROS on Force Friday!

Wolverine Legends Caliban Wave

Time for a quick Marvel Legends gallery!  Nothing hot off the presses but wanted to take the Caliban Wave Weapon X Wolverine for a spin.  I don’t go deep on Marvel Legends personally, but every so often I like to pick certain ones up to fill in my casual rando shelf.  Wolverine in his Weapon X gear is one of those.  It’s a well done piece, upgraded for modern times with new articulation and sculpt.  He’s got the range of the Jim Lee Wolverine.  Paint is minimal since he’s basically rocking it birthday suit style, but they did wind up getting some body hair on there without it looking too weird or overpowering.  There are two heads, the helmeted version being better IMO.  The yelling head has a very classic comic vibe to it but can look a bit off depending on what angle you hit it at.  The gear head is solid though.  Claws are standard Hasbro style, and there are no alt hands without the holes.  The gear is well done, tubes run around from the waist packs into the helmet and arms, each pack has a little paint for the lights.

All in all, really solid representation of Wolverine like this, and worthy of a pick up if you haven’t grabbed him yet.  Read on to check out over 30 HD shots courtesy of Dorkside Toys!

Ghostbusters 2020

In a new report from The Hollywood Reporter it was announced that Hasbro has acquired the worldwide Master Toy License for The Ghosbusters! The first products will hit shelves in 2020, in time for the new Ghostbusters film. In the upcoming film, the surviving original Ghostbusters cast return along with some fresh faces. It serves as a direct sequel to the original two films and is due out on Jul 10th, 2020. Hasbro has been dabbling a bit in the Ghostbusters license with a few crossover Transformers figures earlier this year. As the master toy license holder, they will have access to the entire Ghostbusters catalog to pull from. an excerpt from the article:

“As we build up to release our new Ghostbusters film next year, it was a natural choice to work with Hasbro to develop an all-new line of toys that not only celebrates the new film but also brings us back to the roots of the original film and toy line,” reads a statement from Jamie Stevens, executive vice president with Sony Pictures Consumer Products. “Hasbro has a proven track record of working with well-known IP to make a variety of high-quality toys and figures that appeal to people of all ages, and we are excited to leverage this expertise to bring new product experiences to Ghostbusters fans around the world.”

While toys and figures from the new film are a given, there’s no word on what film Hasbro will choose to kick off their line. Up until this point, Diamond Select Toys had been producing a long running line of Ghostbusters figures. Their releases have spanned not only the original films, but also the fan favorite animated series. Their line has run 10 assortments, bringing fans two massive diorama displays in the Rooftop dio and the Firehouse entrance.

With New York Comic-Con 2019 coming in October, and Toy Fair 2019 coming up in February, it may not be too long before we see our first products. We’ll update as more info is released.
