Deadpool Marvel Legends Action Figure Wave with Strong Guy Build-a-Figure!

Hasbro has been releasing some really awesome Marvel Legends 6” action figures lately, but the one I’ve been waiting for is this insane Strong Guy Build-a-Figure! It is only available as part of the upcoming Deadpool Marvel Legends Wave, which was finally made available for pre-order today here. The Deadpool Marvel Legends Wave is a mix of modern Deadpool and classic ‘90s X-Force characters, and includes Pirate Deadpool, X-Men Blue Deadpool, Sunspot, Warpath, Maverick, Black Tom Cassidy and Shiklah.

Each Marvel Legends Action Figure is a 6” scale, includes character specific accessories and a piece of the Strong Guy Build-a-Figure. How can you buy just one!?!? Collectors can pre-order this set now at Entertainment Earth for $20.99 each or a complete case of 8 figures for $167.99 here.

X-Factor Marvel Minimates Series by Diamond Select Toys

Diamond Select Toys has unveiled Marvel Minimates Series 78, and it’s based on one of the Marvel’s most popular X-Men teams, X-Factor! This Marvel Minimates release spotlights not just one, but two X-Factor teams – a member of the classic 1980s X-Factor team is paired with a member of the also-classic ‘90s X-Factor team. Cyclops comes with his brother Havok, Jean Grey comes with Polaris, Beast comes with Wolfsbane, Archangel comes with Madrox, and if you collect all four sets you get the parts to build a Strong Guy Minimates mini figure!

Each X-Factor Marvel Minimates Set includes two 2” mini figures featuring 14 points of articulation and a variety of interchangeable parts and accessories. These 2 Packs will be available at comic shops and specialty stores later this year, but you can pre-order the entire series now at Entertainment Earth for $32.99 here.

Kidrobot - Santa Peecol by eBoy

Last week Kidrobot released the very first holiday themed Peecol. Designed by eBoy, the Santa Peecol doesn’t care if you’ve been naughty or nice. Everyone better hide their toys and cookies and lock down the chimney when this Santa comes to town because he’s looking to start some trouble and steal some holiday cheer.


What I really want to know is how long Santa has been a fan of the X-Men? Or maybe it's eBoy that's a fan of Marvel Comics' preeminent team. Either way, there’s no other explanation The Blot could come up with as to why eBoy would so blatantly “model” the symbol on Santa’s chest after X-Force’s fearless leader Jamie Madrox's (a.k.a. the Multiple Man) signature logo.

Multiple Man has been sporting his unique chest emblem for decades (as you can see in the pictures here) and it look remarkably like the pattern on Santa’s red coat. Maybe there’s more to the story here…maybe Santa is really just one of Madrox’s dupes. That would explain how jolly old Saint Nick can be so many places at once. All Madrox would have to do is send out an army of duplicates every Christmas Eve to deliver presents to all the little boys and little girls across the globe.


The Santa Peecol is 3.5 inches tall and retails for $9.95. You can purchase this holiday Peecol directly from Kidrobot here.
