We first gave you an indication of these coming from Hasbro back in
January, but now thanks to
Amzaon UK we have our first look at the
Hasbro 6" Marvel Mech Strike Captain America figure. Actually I think this might be one of the
Deluxe figures in the line. Cap is the only figure currently listed but there should be a whole assortment of basic and deluxe figures coming. We also have a look at the
Mech Strike Iron Man Nerf Blaster. These products are obviously geared for the kids and based on the
Marvel Comic Book AVENGERS MECH STRIKE limited series.
There definitely seems to be a market push from
Marvel for the
Mech Strike stuff as we are also seeing other companies like
Funko do products based on it. At this point we've not seen any indications from
Hasbro that they will be doing anything more than the kids stuff. In other words I don't think we will see
Marvel Legends versions of these, but you never know.
This is how you stay toy collectors young.

I'd be happy with these as a kid. Pretty sweet line imo for what they are.

True. Those were all much smaller than their shells though, and were basically little rectangular blocks that fit in to much bigger shells, with the bigger parts of the vehicle or beast mode hooked on to the outer shell, as opposed to the thin, more action-figure-ish 'bots of the first year/full-sized pretenders, so I figured those were the best comparison. They could definitely figure out something better to do with the Mech Strike figure arms, though- the lack of any controls for the mech is odd, without their arms being in the mech's arms.

Not really something I'd buy, but I'm happy to see SOMEONE remembers who toys should be made for. I wish 'em all the success in the world.

Even if you need to remove the figures arms to make it happen, I think the Moira figure has shown us that that kind of radical design is not only possible, but it's available right now! The possibilities are endless. I mean, youcoulddo anything from the MCU Hulkbuster to.......well, to Comic Hulkbuster! Oh, the miracle of modern engineering.
But seriously, where's it at already, Hasbro? Is it possible that one of the figures in this secret MCU line up for this year might have a Hulkbuster with removable figure (be it Stark or Bruce) in the plan?I would pay the $60 to have both options. Plus it's a sneaky way to use the scrawny suit buck for like the 90th time to give us two of the civilian figures we've been asking for. Printing money, baby! Just print the money.
And yes I would willingly pay for a comic book hulkbuster, it has been far too long. And I would only buy a MCU one if it is the mark from Infinity war. I wouldn't pay for a rerelease of the age of ultron one.

I mean this is really for children so specs like that they dont give a #$## I mean I wouldn't either. But I agree that hasbro shouldn't make something like this in ML.
