The official reveal for the next
Spider-Man themed
Marvel Legends wave will soon be upon us, as in the end of this month. So we thought we would recap what we know about this wave as well as what we think we know or kind of know. So first what we know for sure. The wave will have 7 figures in it and 1 Build-A-Figure.
5 of the regular release figures are based on the
MCU, 1 is a
Gamerverse based figure and the final regular release one is
comic book based. We have no idea what the
Build-A-Figure for this wave will be based on.
Last month
Hasbro officially revealed 4 of the 5 MCU based figures from the new
No Way Home movie which will include
Integrated Suit Spider-Man, J. Jonah Jameson, Doctor Strange and
Black & Gold Suit Spider-Man. That leaves one remaining MCU based figure for the wave which at this time we have no info on. Since the official reveal should be coming later this month, I don't expect it to be something that would contain a Spoiler for
No Way Home. I can't even say it will be based on the new movie. It's possible that it could be based on one of the already released Spider-Man movies. We already know
Hasbro is giving us a new
Spider-Man Homecoming Deluxe Vulture figure which will be released at
Target stores.
For the
Gamerverse figure, based on listings that had popped up briefly on Amazon Australia, we are pretty sure it will be a
Miles Morales figure from the new
PS5 game. It will likely use the same mold as the recently announced
Translucent version.
For the
comic book based figure, we are gussing. Based on the "hand" clue given earlier this week by
Hasbro during their live-stream, we are thinking it will be a figure of the character known as
Morlun. The 6 dot pattern on the hand shown in the live-stream is almost an exact match to what has been shown in the comics for that character. Since the official reveal is coming later this month it would make sense they would go on and tease it.
So there you have it. As I say we should know for sure if this is how the wave pans out by end of this month. Likely during the final week of the month. I don't yet know if
Hasbro will be holding a second live-stream for
Marvel Legends in August, but I wouldn't be surprised if they do.
