Marvelicious Toys - The Marvel Universe Toy & Coll

Do you think you know what they did last summer? Think again! Our 2025 Summer/Fall Donation Drive kicks off today with our review of I Know What You Did Last Summer, the 1997 slasher that made hook hands cool again. But before the gore, there was… guilt? In this bonus episode, Arnie digs into the 1973 young-adult novel by Lois Duncan. But slasher fans be warned: there’s no fisherman, no slickers, and definitely no body count. Just a group of teens, a hit-and-run, and a slow-burning mystery that’s more Nancy Drew than Ghostface.  Find out what changed, what got lost in translation, and why Duncan was not thrilled with the adaptation, in this bonus book review podcast.   https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/jyxqtuvpemg9mtnm/NPPBR160-IKnowWhatYouDidLastSummerLoisDuncan7eqps.mp3 Download

Would you dream of reading 300 pages about the actor who played Freddy?

Justin and Arnie chat with Dwight and Ryan. There’s no breakdancing, but there IS discussion about the future of soft goods on Marvel Legends figures, the (plastic free?) future of the Retro 6-inch Legends line, if the Phoenix Five is possible in plastic form, and much more!

Take a tour of the Marvel section of Hasbro’s booth at SDCC! Justin shows you the latest Marvel Legends, Retro Figures, and more displayed at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con International Watch or listen now: Video Podcast: Download Audio Only Podcast: Download

If there’s no Hasbro exclusive, is it really SDCC? It’s been three years since the last proper San Diego Comic-Con International. Now, finally, this week it makes its return for 2022, and likely 120,000 fans will gather. Yet, this will be a different feeling SDCC (and not just because of mask mandates). Hasbro has no sales booth, and no Marvel exclusive. The Hasbro Marvel panel is Friday, not Saturday. Mezco also is sitting out on exclusives this year. Companies like DC, Warner Bros., and others are sitting the convention out entirely. Yet there’s still much to get excited for. Justin, Arnie, and Marjorie detail it all in this issue of Marvelicious Toys! They list every announced exclusive, from a 12″ Man-Thing to a tiny Toynk pin, and not one but two blue Iron Man figures. Also on this week’s show, a brief (spoilery) discussion of Thor: Love and Thunder, plus some collectibles and tie-ins that will make your eyes sparkle. All this and Shrinkey-Dinks too are in this pre-SDCC Marvelicious Toys! Watch or listen now: Video Podcast: Download Audio Only Podcast: Download

It’s all in the hips…. it’s all in the hips…. Hasbro broke new ground with the Sentinel Haslab project. It set records for the biggest Haslab response (until beaten by the Hasbro Galactus a year later). It became the largest Marvel Legends figure of all time. It could be Master Mold, Tri-Sentinel, Battle Damaged, or regular. It was an ambitious project, preceded by awe-inspiring online tease photos. Was it too ambitious? On this Marvelicious Toys, join Arnie, Justin, and Marjorie for a hands-on review of the Sentinel, as well as the included Sentinel Prime/Bastion and Female Sentinel Prime 6-inch figures. Is the Sentinel worth the hype (and possibly the after-market eBay pricing)? Find out now! Also on this show, hear our hosts give a contemporaneous review to Sony’s Venom: Let there Be Carnage It’s all in this brand-new Marvelicious Toys episode!

Hasbro's Marvel team blew away fans at 2020's New York Toy Fair. Several times during their presentation Hasbro's Dwight Stall, Dan Yun, and Ryan Ting could have dropped the mic and walked away. Sugar Man build-a-figure! X-Men movie figures! New articulation with no peg holes! Yet the surprises and reveals kept coming, up to teasing a massive Haslab crowd-sourcing project. On this issue of the Marvelicious Toys Podcast, hear our exclusive interview with Dwight and Ryan. Then hear a second interview with the inclusion of Dan and Master Model Artist Tony Colella. It's over 40 minutes of talking toys and Marvel Comics with Hasbro's team. Then Arnie, Marjorie, and Justin unravel all Hasbro's reveals, helping you keep track of which stores offer which exclusives, what waves are coming, and what you can order now. It's a jam-packed, double-sized podcast, and it's only Part 1 of our 2020 Toy Fair coverage!

We are just a few days away from New York Toy Fair International where the biggest toy companies will reveal the toys that we'll be hunting for all year. Marvelicious Toys will be there to bring you live coverage from Hasbro, LEGO, Mezco and more! And while we wait for the big show, Justin, Marjorie, and Arnie are here in this new episode of Marvelicious Toys to review the first Marvel Legends wave of 2020--The Fantastic Four (Plus Dr. Doom and Hulk). All this and more in this issue of Marvelicious Toys!

Take a moment and reflect... If you collect Marvel Legends you are right now in a golden era. The number of figures, and variety, is unparalleled for a 6-inch scale line. In 2019 Hasbro released 135 different, highly articulated and detailed figures (counting the Dani Moonstar Walgreens exclusive as three). The figures covered the MCU, the 616, and more, with X-Men fans getting their due (finally), and deep dive figures such as Rock Python and Living Laser. This is a heyday. Star Wars collectors had this type of generous release (in 3.75-inch scale) from 2005 through 2012, and now get less than 25 figures per year. So understand that sometime in the future, collectors will look back and realize this was the best time ever for Marvel collectors. On this new episode of the Marvelicious Toys podcast Arnie, Marjorie, and Justin do reflect on the excess of riches that Dwight Stall (Senior Design Manager), Ryan Ting (Senior Global Brand Manager), Bobby Vala (Senior Product Designer) and the rest of the Hasbro Marvel team delivered in 2019, and run down their favorite figures from the year. What was the best MCU figure? The best multi-pack? The best Build-A-Figure? They give their picks for all of that and more on this week's Marvelicious Toys. Watch the show and then give us your thoughts -- what were your favorites this year? Let us know in the comments on our web site.

As the 2010s come to a close many take this time to reflect on the past. For Marvel collectors it's been a CRAZY decade! In 2010 Hasbro was hardly making any Marvel Legends figures, choosing to focus on their 3.75" Marvel Universe line. That changed in 2012 with the rebirth of Marvel Legends, and an explosion of figures. One of the hallmarks of the Marvel Legends line is its Build-A-Figure concept: buy all the figures to build another, usually much larger, figure. It started with Toybiz in 2002, and continues to this day. Watch this episode of Marvelicious Toys to revisit the Build-A-Figures of the past, with a specific focus on Hasbro's releases. From Annihilus to Bro Thor, and every single one in between--it's all in this special Marvelicious Toys!
