Yesterday during Hasbro's latest
Marvel Legends Fanstream we got a few accessory teases for upcoming action figures which seems to confirm the rumors that we will soon be getting
Marvel Legends figures based on the
Marvel Vs Capcom video games.
Of course we have already been getting figures that fit in well with those video games including the
Zabu BAF Wave Cable,
Retro Iron Man With Proton Cannon,
Retro Modular War Machine and
Marrow.
It should be noted that the one thing missing from any of those figures or the ones likely yet to come are the
Capcom part of the
Marvel Vs. Capcom. In other words anyone thinking you might see
Capcom based figures with any of this is going to be sorely disappointed. If you want
Capcom based figures that fit in well with
Marvel Legends then we suggest you look at the
Jada Toys Street Fighter line, but don't expect any to come from
Hasbro.
So getting back to yesterday's teases, what exactly can we expect for
Marvel Legends figures from that? Well based on
RUMORS first put out on the internet last August by
Displaying Model Behaviour, we can expect a new
Deluxe Juggernaut figure that will go with the
large blast effect piece they showed. This will allow you to create his running charge move from the game. Now when I say new
Juggernaut, I have no idea if this will be a totally new figure or some kind of re-issue with new accessories. That goes for all these rumored listings.
The
smaller flame accessory Hasbro showed yesterday seems to have just been put out there to give a size comparison for the
bigger blast effect. We don't think it was meant to be a teaser for a new figure.
The
pink accessory should be for a rumored
Psylocke figure that will be part of a
2-pack with Thanos.
Beyond those items, it is "Rumored" you can also expect to see a
2-pack with Wolverine and Silver Samurai and a
Deluxe Gargantos (Shuma-Gorath). That last figure is the most interesting one because it is the first time we will have ever gotten a action figure based on that character.
Note based on what I have seen, the figure is listed as
Gargantos which in the comics is actually a different character from
Shuma-Gorath, but due to legal issues involving the
Shuma-Gorath name, Marvel and likely Hasbro are using the
Gargantos name in place of
Shuma-Gorath. It should also be noted that in the comics Shuma is much bigger than how he appears in the video games which is where I think most people know the character from. The figure while a bigger Deluxe one we imagine will be sized based on his video game appearance and not his comic book one.
Another thing to note here is that these figures don't appear to be listed as video game figures
or likely will have any mention of
Marvel Vs. Capcom on the packaging. These appear to fall under as subline titled
Marvel Legends Anniversary.
Now there does appear to be some additional figure 2-packs coming that will fall under the
Gamerverse banner. Those include
Captain America vs Venom and
War Machine vs Omega Red. I have no idea why some of these seem to fall under the
Gamerverse banner and others don't, but again
I don't really expect any mention of
Marvel Vs. Capcom on these offerings, and definitely don't expect any
Capcom based characters released with these.
From what I have seen these won't be out until the latter half of 2025 and my best guess is these are figures that will be officially revealed by
Hasbro this summer during
SDCC.
Hasbro should have at least one more Online Fanstream event before
SDCC, so I won't say it's impossible they couldn't be revealed during that, but SDCC seems more likely to me. Of course as always, until
Hasbro does officially reveal these figures we will treat all of this as
RUMOR.
I'm still a bit on the fence here with this Mystique. I've always been pretty satisfied with my Walgreens exclusive Mystique, but knowing myself, I'll probably end up trying to sell that one and pick this one up. I guess it's the compulsive collector in me.

And high five to anyo e who can make a figure stand for a decent period of time without falling down a dominoing half your display. I have yet to do so. At least not without a stand. Honestly I would re-buy every older female figure made on the Kate body that was remade with the Shreik model. It would be great to get like an alternate head sculpt or maybe even a Skrull sculpt but it really doesn't matter. Hasbro has me over a barrel here.
I'd go a step further: virtually 70% of the female figures need to be re-done. They've done incredible, outstanding work on their faces- the bodies now need to match. The females need to be in scale with their male counterparts, not look as if they belong to some other companie's line. Case in point: Cap from Secret Wars to Power Princess to Ms Marvel-Warbird (Target). Carol here looks like a kid compared to these two. If we agree that this is more or less a correct rendition of Captain America, then what can we say about them??

I think it's fine since it's right at the end of the gloves, I'm not getting it but not because of that joint

I'm so glad though for everyone who doesn't have a Mystique they finally released her again, the first one was hard to get, and she's such an important character, surprised it took them this long. The VHS one doesn't count.

I Had not heard these rumours, I had heard about a potential Hulk wave, with Abomination, but had no idea rumours about other figures were surfacing, Red Shulk! wonderful.
I also see you stated elsewhere here, Cyborg Hulk and Smart Hulk, well oof, Doc Samson, A-Bomb, Zzzax, Bi-Beast, Some U-Foes would have been nice to hear were coming..but ahh well.

Re: She-Hulk Retro Card
I've always loved the look of She-Hulk with her hair in a ponytail. Hopefully the skin tone at least matches so we can have a proper head swap with the previous figure. But knowing Hasbro they'll probably make it just a few shades off just to mess with us. Honestly this figure as much as it looks like the Byrne art, I really just wish Hasbro would bite the bullet and just do a straight out redo of the She-Hulk from the Blob Wave. In her white and lavender track suit. I really loved that figure and it was amazing as compares to the product that Hasbro was doing at the time. The story I heard is most of that wave was actually Toybiz sculpts that came over to Hasbro once they were awarded the Mavel license. Even the Blob BAF itself was which if done by Toybiz would have most likely been a single card. But of course they still got that crappy Hasbro articulation of the time. Actually quite a few figures from that wave still haven't been updated. We really need a Yellowjacket. An updated Xorn would be cool but I can do without. I really loved that Thor though which I guess is called Lord Thor. Whatever. I really liked the look of it and wish they could redo that one too with modern articulation. I think Love and Thunder MCU Thor was loosely based on that look but I'm not sure. I'm sure someone else might have a little better insight than me on that. Don't think I was reading Thor books around that time so I don't particularly remember that era.
