Today Dwight, Ryan and Dan will be presenting another round of Marvle legends reveals to kick off the new year. Among other things we expect to see the new Spider-Man: No Way Home Electro figure which should be going up for pre-order on January 30th at places like our sponsors Entertainment Earth and BigBadToyStore.com. We are bringing you coverage of everything revealed as it happens below.

Panel beings.

The video is messed up and looks to be pre-recorded. They are showing the No Way Home Electro which goes up for pre-order on Jan 30, the new Ultimate Series Spider-Man which has a ton of accessories. Pre-Order date not given and the Mini-Comic Wave which includes:

- Rom The Space Knight with ROM Mini-Comic #1
- Banshee (Green and Yellow Classic Costume) with Giant Sized X-Men #1 Mini-Comic
- Adam Warlock with Infinity Gauntlet #1 Mini-Comic
- Miles Morales Spider-Man with Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man #1 Mini-Comic
- Dark Avengers Wolverine with Dark Avengers #1 Mini-Comic
- Ultimate Iron Man with Ultimate Iron Man Mini-Comic


The video has now been taken down so we will wait and see if they try again.

They have put a new video up which we have updated above. Its pre-recorded but now you can't fast forward.

They are starting by going over the Nemesis X-Men wave and announced a new Green And Yellow X-Factor Jean Grey. She has an alternate head with TK effect and extra hands. Comes on a X-Men Retro Cardback and be released as a Target exclusive going up for pre-order at a later date. And along with Professor X that went up this week, these X-Men figures will be a continuing theme throughout the year at Target.

Next the Spider-Man" No Way Home Electro figure which will be going up for pre-order on Jan 30th. Has the large electric effects and alternate hands. The star mask is not removable.

Next they announced their new Ultimate series with Spider-Man. Looks like they renamed the line Maximum series instead of Ultimate. Sculpt is all new including articulated toes, butterfly joints. They have opened up the hips more. It has a new neck design and includes an unmasked, regular masked head and spider-sense masked tingling head. he also comes with multiple hands, webbing effects,web shield, a set of lower arm/hands that have no costume but have web-blasters on the hands, and projectile stand. This is said to be the most articulated Spider-Man figure to date. The pre-order will be sometime in February and no word on price yet.

Note while Hasbro didn't say, the next figure in this line should be Hulk.

Next they are going over the new Marvel Legends Mini-Comic wave. The mini-comics are just covers that are made of plastic. They come on a blister card type packaging.

- Rom The Space Knight with ROM Mini-Comic #1
- Dark Avengers Wolverine with Dark Avengers #1 Mini-Comic (Has Masked and unmasked head
- Adam Warlock with Infinity Gauntlet #1 Mini-Comic which comes with staff and Infinity Gauntlet
- Ultimate Iron Man with Ultimate Iron Man #1 Mini-Comic
- Miles Morales Spider-Man with Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man #1 Mini-Comic which has masked and unmasked head, alternate hands. Has butterfly joints
- Banshee (Green and Yellow Classic Costume) with Giant Sized X-Men #1 Mini-Comic which has two heads and alternate hands


This wave will be going up for pre-order on February 6 at 1pm ET at places like Entertainment Earth and BigBadToyStore.com.

Finally they teased a pair of accessories which were two arm curl weights.

Yea a Target exclusive villain that no one can get! Don't wish that on us. Target is now the king of letdowns I'm so tired of trying to get there figures. My way was to get on at midnight and order on the release date but that did not work this time,alas. I live in Arkansas we only have two Targets and the closest one is over an hour away...feel my pain.

I missed the pre-order for X-Factor Jean as it's sold out, but I'm not terribly torn up about it as I wasn't crazy about the figure anyway.

However, Target seems to be getting pretty bad about having their exclusives sell out online quick and never getting stocked in physical stores (at least in my area).

I'm getting really tired of Target. Agree 100% with you for online. In-store, the waves appear 1 to 3 times each, and then they vanish. The only way I can keep up is swing by the store a block from work. If the pegwarmers are up, I know I just missed it and I've 1 or 2 more chances.

so we are probably getting the third retro X-men tomorrow.

Yeah, I want that curve to touch--it actually has a couple of times in other lines, but only very sparingly. You cite a very good description of the situation. There's a LOT of placeholders in their lines and a lot of "Malibu Stacy's with Hats" too.I bought the ToyBiz stuff from the start, and I still have a bunch in my collection. So figures therein have, imo, never been surpassed, or have been upgraded only so marginally as to be not worth the effort to get.Lockjaw is an interesting case: I thought the Mezco: ONE-12 Blackbolt set had ( initially) a leagues better Lockjaw. Uh-uh.The Hasbro Lockjaw is more articulated, by a bit---it just lacks the light-up feature.

Haha, the Hasbro Lockjaw proves my asymptote theory. To get close to an end-all Lockjaw by Hasbro, it would need that light-up feature! (And maybe better articulation. We can dream LoL)

I do have a handful, and I mean literally 5 or less, of the old Toybiz Legends: Ultimate Iron Man---I thought this was really great at the time, until I checked under the lid and found Tony's ridiculous looking tiny head! I leave it on him---Beast w/articulated jaw, Professor X, the other 2 I can't recall.

Maximum Spider-Man is available on Pulse again if anyone cares. He's also still up on Amazon.

Are tons of people cancelling?

More than likely a limited amount available for preorder when it first went up to create FOMO.

I try to stay upbeat about it. I mean, can you imagine years earlier, buying the farm, only to have lived through the TOY BIZ era as the highlight of one's collecting experience? We're in a golden age of sorts. I got Crystal/Lockjaw recently. Sure wish Lockjaw's legs were a little more articulated. But in this case, who knows when Hasbro will get around to rereleasing a retooled "super-posable) Lockjaw, so I'm grateful.

It feels more like a "what can we get away with for cheap?" than a "what can we add to this to make it really special?"kind of thing. And Hasbro always does this, it's a historically overriding product philosophy, and we are suckers for it, because we keep buying the stuff. It''s a constant series of small omissions and missed opportunities---corners cut, basically.

Hi, fellow tiny-plastic-people collector LoL

You're 100% right about the small omissions/missed opportunities=cutting corners thing. I believe one more thing is going in, and it's what keeps us buying.

In JRHS algebra, we learned about an asymptote, "a line that continually approaches a given curve but does not meet it at anyfinitedistance."

An exercise had us charting the curve on an x-y axis, and sure enough, with each change on the x variable, the curve got a fraction closer to the line, the y axis. In other words, the curve will NEVER touch the line.

Hasbro's continuous rollout of Spider-Man figures--- and let's be honest, this goes for EVERY figure they make, in EVERY line---will never result in the end-all, 100% complete ultimate base Spider-Man figure, because if that happened, a lot of us would stop buying them.

Instead, they put out one Spider-Man figure after another that's always missing SOMETHING. The paint/shading is off, no pizza slice, no other alt hands besides fist/"thwip" hands, alternate heads that look almost the same, no unmasked head, unmasked head that looks wonky, no web/not enough web accessories, etc etc etc. We'll never reach that line, but we keep getting closer. And closer. And closer. For eternity. WOMP womp LoL

Look at what they just did with X-factor Jean and her boots error! (Yes, we can paint it, but we're not supposed to be buying DIY figures, either) At some point, they'll roll out her red uniform with the corrected boots, but who wants to bet the yellow will be a shade off from the yellow on the green uniform?

I try to stay upbeat about it. I mean, can you imagine years earlier, buying the farm, only to have lived through the TOY BIZ era as the highlight of one's collecting experience? We're in a golden age of sorts. I got Crystal/Lockjaw recently. Sure wish Lockjaw's legs were a little more articulated.
