Marvel Universe Rumors from Toyfare?

Kluster Bombs · 02-06-2010, 07:30 PM

A look into what we might see in ToyFare magazine #152 this Wednesday. Marvel Universe and Iron Man 2 figures. Not sure if the magazine will show us pics or just info. I know that most of them have been confirmed but there is a few that we didn't know about like the IM2 figs.

Plus Toyfair (not Toyfare mag) will be held on Feb 14-17 so we will know soon enough.

This a rumor so we will have to wait until Wednesday to see if this is true. (I hope it is)

Mr Curto (Cooltoyreview) hints at some MU stuff.

Havok was one of the Fans' Choice Poll winners, so he's definitely coming. That's true.

So, you want to know some teasers? How's this...

- We will see another Iron Man & Spider_Man, although not the ones you'd expect.

- One team will be completed, while another team will get its first member.

- Two characters from the first year will get new versions.

- We will see a great mix of exclusives coming this summer...from very different sources.

- There will be at least one character that no one could have predicted. (but feel free to guess!)

- Finally, we will see a new Captain!

That enough for ya??

Hm... Well, we got House of M Spidey. What would people not expect? Paperbag? 2099? Ben Reilly? Scarlet? I'm hoping for something really obscure.

Looks like Invisible Woman is pretty much confirmed. But hm, maybe the next one is Young Avengers?

Quote:

Not a whole lot of guesses on this.

This is exciting.

The only characters that would REALLY fit this are ones like Howard the Duck, Rocket Raccoon, or Kick-Ass (if they could somehow go through Icon to count it as a Marvel figure).

Iron Man could be anything. He's got a lot of obscure armors out there. Bag-Spidey would be probably the least expected, but Spidey 2099 or Scarlet Spider would be pretty unexpected, too. Heck, I'd be happy with an "Iron Spider."

- One team will be completed, while another team will get its first member.

I'm betting it's the Wrecker, not the Invisible Woman, but it could be either. Another team getting its' first member? Dark Avengers, perhaps? Would certainly be in keeping with this year's theme.

Quote:

- Two characters from the first year will get new versions.

I'm assuming they mean characters that aren't already remade a few times yet (Iron Man, Wolvie, Spidey). Daredevil and Black Panther?

Quote:

- We will see a great mix of exclusives coming this summer...from very different sources.

I'm sure Wal-Mart's all but guaranteed at least one exclusive. The others could be anyone.

Quote:

Not a clue here, aside from what's already been mentioned.

Quote:

- Finally, we will see a new Captain!

Could be anything from a proper "modern" Captain America to Captain Britain to Captain Marvel to...well yeah. Lot of Captains out there in Marvel. Heck, could even be Steve Rogers old "Captain" uniform but I'd suspect they'd name that one USAgent.

Johnnyakiba · 02-07-2010, 08:54 AM

I would love the Hulk Buster...but I know Hasbro...He's going to be less articulated than the Wolverine figures!

Kitty Prye...purchased. Aim Agent (depending on how it looks and where it's released)...purchased.

I hope that the Aim Agent is single carded so I can pick up about 5 of them.

Damn it Johnny! You are killing my excitement. I forgot about the deluxe XMO Wolvie figs like the Blob. I hope that is not the case for Hulkbuster.

Prem1x · 02-07-2010, 09:30 AM

These are fantastic rumors. I can't wait until Toy Fair. Put me down for them all!

decepticon_mark · 02-07-2010, 09:43 AM

Can't wait til Toy Fair. I need my plastic crack fix lol and since the new figures aren't in stores yet {SW 4, Iron Man 2, and 2010 wave 2} then at least I can stare and dream of the future releases. Hurry up with pics from Toy Fair.

I know I can't wait for Toyfair. I'll be getting the Toyfare magazine also and hopefully they have pics of the upcoming IM 2 and MU figs.

I'm guessing this means the New Avengers team will be completed. We HAVE most of the figures already, just missing Dr. Strange and ASX Wolverine.

Im thinking it might be Invisible Woman or the Wrecker.

decepticon_mark · 02-07-2010, 12:08 PM

I've said it before and I still go with Wrecker for one reason. While MU doesn't seem to give much love to villains, they seem to give even less to female characters.

RenegadeReviews · 02-07-2010, 12:12 PM

Okay so... When is the toyfair?

First member of new team - calling it. Iron Patriot, Dark Avengers.

Completion will be Wrecker (could be Sue, but I'll stick with Wrecker for now)

Hmm...well if we get ASX Wolverine, not only will the New Avengers team be close to completion in MU, it also coincides with the rumor that we are getting a new version of a character released last year(Wolverine). I think Iron Spider is the other new version of a previously released character. He is in the books from the last few years and the costume was significant in Civil War, this ties into the rumored Civil War comic packs too. Speaking of which, so does ASX Wolverine!

I think Iron Patriot will be the 1st figure of a new team(Dark Avengers). Ties into the HAMMER stuff, and also is an easy excuse for Hasbro to repaint the upcoming Extremis right away this year.

For a new Captain my guess is either a New Cap w/out Daredevil body, Civil War modern Captain America(again ties into the Civil War comic packs), or Captain Marvel.

As for figure no one could have predicted...my guess is the Watcher.

Tarquinius · 02-07-2010, 01:08 PM

More then anyting I hope ToyFare puts an end to any controversial variants. That other thread has got me really thinking lol.

I hope they show off the Translucent Vision, Xmen Warpath and anything else we've been arguing about ha

Marvelousnews.com is taking these rumors one step farther

They confirmed all the MU Figures (AIM agent, Colossus, Archangel, Juggy) and then added these for IM2 which I didn't see coming (except Hulkbuster)

- Hulkbuster Iron Man
- Vault Guardsman
- Titanium Man
- Classic Iron Man AKA Reconnaissance Armor
- Iron Man classic (red & gold with Steve Ditko mask)

New Marvel Universe & Iron Man 2 Figure Announced - Marvel - MarvelousNews.com

Snowflakian · 02-07-2010, 01:17 PM

So awesome, the new captain is probably captain britain or captian marvel.

And the rest just sound promising no matter who they end up being.

Kitty pryde is a definite yay. And Titanium Man is also a yay, as well as the vault guardsman.

The new exclusives could be scattered across many stores, but I do expect walgreens to be one of them as per the deals awhile back.

How is that taking it 1 step further? The information, like the one we got from AFP, is from Toy Fare, and those Iron Man 2 figures were listed in our frontpage post last night.
