Last night during the Super Bowl we got the newest trailer for the
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 movie (See below) which opens in theaters on May 5th.
And with that I think it's time to start talking
Marvel Legends and what we can expect from
Hasbro for movie based figures. From distributor lists first leaked out to the public last year by the Youtuber
Rektangular, the wave is slated to include the following figures:
-Starlord
-Drax
-Nebula
-Rocket
-Mantis
-Adam Warlock
-Kraglin
No word on the
Build-A-Figure for this wave but some have speculated it might be based on the
High Evolutionary.
There also should be a
Deluxe Groot figure coming and while we have not seen any listings for it, I wouldn't be surprised if we don't end up with some kind of store exclusive
Gamora. None of this of course has yet to be confirmed by
Hasbro, but now that we have the newest trailer that might soon change.
We are expecting some kind of
Marvel Legends news to be made by
Hasbro this week and according to the
Entertainment Earth Pre-Order drop-page, it looks like their will be some kind of
Marvel Legends pre-order on
February 22. Whether any of that has to do with GOTG is unknown at this time.
Hasbro last week finally revealed the movie wave for
Ant-Man And The Wasp Quantumania which you can pre-order from our sponsors
BigBadToyStore.com and
Entertainment Earth. While that movie opens this weekend, the Ant-Man figures aren't due out until July.
Hasbro has stated that the reason those figures will be released well after the movie is because at one time
Quantumania was going to be released on July 28, 2023 and then was changed to February. Because of the fairly recent date change of the movie, Hasbro couldn't get the figures out that soon and was barley even able to have them ready for pre-order before the movie came out.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 has had the May 5th release date for awhile now so I would expect the figures to be released before the movie comes out.

True...

Shown below via SBToyz is an in-hand look at the new Marvel Legends Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Deluxe Groot Figure from Hasbro. You can purchase this figure from our sponsors BigBadToyStore.com and Entertainment Earth.
Maybe its the lighting, but the blue looks too intense and Warlock looks greenish.

Perhaps I'll like them better in hand, because I'm still getting most of them. Compared to the movie colours though, I must say I prefer that version.

This wave definitely has some good things don't get me wrong, but I really wish some other things were different. Maybe the colours were the result of concept art, but what about the lack of accessories, what about Cosmo as the BAF? I shouldn't start again though.
