Marvel Q&A With Hasbro Plus A Marvel Universe First Look At Electro

Each month we submit 3 questions to the Hasbro design team for Marvel products. Here is the latest batch of questions and answers for March 2009:

Marvelous News: Can you provide us with the images of the items shown to us but did not provide us with images of at Toy Fair:

- Marvel Universe SDCC Invaders box set and Cap Black & White
- Wal-Mart exclusive Winter Soldier Captain America w/Giant Man Skrull
- Wal-Mart exclusive 6" X-Men movie figure 2-packs
- 6” Iron Man Titanium Man and Crimson Dynamo
- Spider-Man Classic Green Goblin
- Marvel Universe Electro

Hasbro: Images of these items will be coming out closer to Comic Con, but we've sent one along with these answers - check out Electro from Universe Wave 5! (See below)


Marvelous News: Will the 6" Wal-Mart exclusive X-Men movie figure 2-packs be new sculpts or just re-releases of the old Toy Biz ones?

Hasbro: These packs include a mix of both newly sculpted features and existing tooling.


Marvelous News: Can you give us the details on how one will be able to obtain the Nick Fury mail-away figure. Now that Marvel U figures are out it would be helpful to know if people should be saving something from the card backs or not?

Hasbro: Details are still being finalized..an announcement about the Nick Fury Exclusive Figure Program will be forthcoming soon.


Marvelous News: Now that the second wave of 6" Marvel Legends 2-packs are TRU/Diamond exclusives, when will they be released?

Hasbro: These will be coming your way in early summer 2009.


Marvelous News: Will you be including figure stands with MU figures anytime soon or selling them separately in some way?

Hasbro: We are looking into this possibility for 2010 but there's nothing concrete to announce yet.
