Marvel Universe New Photos And Info

Marvel® Universe Iron Patriot™

When Spider-Man® warned the Avengers™ about how dangerous Norman Osborn was, no one listened. He was a has-been bad guy, living under the thumb of Tony Stark, locked up in Thunderbolts Mountain. Now, of course, he’s on top of the world, living the life of a beloved hero while lining his pockets and spreading his evil. He’s got the real heroes on the run, and he’s traded up his old Green Goblin™ costume for a suit of powerful, high-tech armor of his own design.

Intricately detailed down to the last muscle, this articulated Iron Patriot action figure is ready to fight! Send him into combat with his energy burst accessory to fight for the fate of the world or leave him posed for action on his stand as a warning against evil-doers everywhere. The battle is just beginning and the power is in your palm of your hands!

Figure comes with an energy burst accessory and a classified file with a secret code.

Marvel® Universe Mary Jane Watson™

Every guy remembers the girl who got away. For Spider-Man®, that girl is Mary Jane Watson. For reasons neither of them can quite put their finger on, a relationship that should have been a love for the ages just never worked out. After the break-up, MJ headed west to pursue her acting career, while the wall-crawler stayed in New York to defend the city he loves. They still share fond feeling for each other, but whenever they try to get together something seems to get in the way.

Intricately detailed, this articulated Mary Jane Watson action figure always plays an important part in the Spider-Man character’s story! (Additional action figures sold separately) Craft stories around her character or add her and her pet accessory into your favorite dramatic scenes. Will the good guys or the bad guys triumph? The battle is just beginning and the power is in your palm of your hands!

Figure comes with pet accessory and a classified file with a secret code.

Marvel® Universe Skrull Soldier™

Though the Skrull Empire had vast resources and powerful technology, the backbone of its all-conquering armies was made of these humble soldiers. Each one was trained to use his shape-shifting abilities to create confusion among their enemies, making them vulnerable to the surprise attacks and sabotage that were the Skrull Empire’s signature. For a thousand years, these soldiers were what allowed the empire to bring an entire galaxy to its knees.

Marvel® Universe Iron Spider-Man®

Iron Man™ created this new costume for Spider-Man as a way of welcoming him to the Avengers™. It packs much of the same technology Tony Stark’s own armor does, as well as specialized cybernetics that enhance the web-slinger’s abilities. Spider-Man wore the armor with pride until the Super Hero Civil War drove him underground, forcing him to abandon it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Marvel® Universe Winter Soldier™

Few covert operatives had as much effect on the world as did the Winter Soldier. His name was only spoken in whispers by those few who had heard of him and lived. Brainwashed and used by his Soviet masters, he was the USSR’s secret weapon against its enemies. It was only after he was defeated and his memories restored by Captain America™ that he turned his considerable skills to heroism.

Send him into combat with his weapon accessories to fight for the fate of the world or leave him posed for action on his stand as a warning against evil-doers everywhere.

Marvel® Universe: Spider-Man™

When he was 14 years old, Peter Parker was bitten by a spider that had been irradiated in a nuclear experiment. Something in the spider’s venom changed him, over night, from the nerdy kid he’d been to something else entirely. Given incredible strength, speed and stamina, he reveled in his power. The tragic death of his uncle threw Peter’s good fortune into fierce perspective, giving him direction. From that day on, he vowed to battle evil wherever he could find it as The Amazing Spider-Man.

Detailed with defined “muscles”, pose this Spider-Man action figure in a battle-ready pose with his “spinning” web accessory aimed at the enemy! Fully articulated, he’s ready to make a stand in your collection.

Action figure comes with a “spinning” web accessory and a S.H.I.E.L.D. file with a secret code.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Marvel® Universe Comic Packs: Cyclops™ and Dark Phoenix™

A seemingly quiet moment for the X-Men™ is interrupted by chaos as the Dark Phoenix returns. Little do they know, but her appearance is a mere illusion created by an enemy to cut Cyclops off from his team, and destroy them all. The illusion collapses before the combined might of the X-Men, and the group subdues and captures the revenge-crazed villain.

Marvel® Universe Comic Packs: Dark Wolverine™ and Dark Spider-Man®

Deep beneath Thunderbolts Mountain, the monstrous Venom™ is changed into a virtual copy of the hero Spider-Man by the evil genius of Norman Osborn. Elsewhere, the rage-filled son of Wolverine is recruited to replace his father. Both men become members of Osborn’s Dark Avengers™, a group of criminals masquerading as the heroes whose names they’ve stolen.

I STILL AM PISSED that they somehow manged to change the character design of iron patriot for the worst,when they already had it designed accurately

[Pissoff]

Winter Solider!! I'm very excited about this line... although I'm not digging Iron Patriot on the new IM body.. It will be needed for the Dark Avengers

Mary Jane.... Gahhh I still can't believe she was voted in.... and her little dog to

Dark Phoenix= Ear to ear grin

[Shin Densetsu]

Looks like Daken has a new head sculpt probably to be used in the Target 2 pack of tiger stripe Wolverine. Disappointed that Iron Spidey is retooled version of the Symbiote Spidey uniform. =(

[eisen]

something just feels wrong with MJ's head. and i am not gonna get the Iron Patriot if THAT's his deco. bleh

you notice the flaws too?

[Excelsior07]

Ok, seriously? "Iron Patriot" is Extremis Iron Man with a star on his chest. That's all. Yea, guys, I'm stickin' to makin' a custom Patriot, like everyone else has, LOL. Good practice for me anyway.

Can't wait for Skrulls tho!

yeah i might just buy that iron patriot and correct the flaws

[Excelsior07]

Did they change anything about the Wave 1 Spidey? And what, they couldn't give MJ some clothes?!

And I thought the comic packs were supposed to come with DIFFERENT comics?!

What's wrong with that? It's to be expected. That's the Spidey body since they stopped using the original and inferior wave 1 body. The black costume/HoM/Iron Spidey body is definitely better than the original.

Yeah, I don't quite understand why the wave 1 Spidey is part of this press release.

And they are different comics. These are just promotional pictures. ToyArk is very late on putting this up, Marvelous News had them up a while back with a note saying these were not the final packaging designs. If you look at the photos, it says the name of the correct comics on the cardboard.

Yeah, there haven't been many big misses in this line but that would be one of them. The figure itself looks great until you get to the legs. I don't understand it.

But other than his legs, this is a fantastic wave all around.

wolverine has lipstick!

I'd prefer a new mold, sculpted ankle and wrist armor instead of just gold paint apps.

[Excelsior07]

Yea, I'm already making that What If? Captain America anyway.

@eisen: ..........what the hell was that for?!?! lol

No it's not. The head is based more on the Tin Man armor and the movie armor, so why be lazy and give it the crappy looking Extremis head?

[Snowflakian]

So yummy, I want these badly, like now.
Finish up my dark avengers, and leave me only 3 left needed for avengers, and they've covered the troop building too.

Yummy, now if only they'd do the last of the astonishing X-Men, new X-Men, DarkHawk, Nova Prime, and GLI (deadpool needs his team! Squirrel girl and Grashopper in particular.)

So just swap it with the series 1 centurion armor. Problem solved for both. Some of us like the extremis head.

[LXL_Guy]

When do expect to see these figures?! Kind of interested in MJ & Winter Soldier.

a brofist is like a high-five except in the frat/bro culture of today it is done with 2 fists and not open palms.

basically i agree with your point that hasbro messed up the deco for Iron Patriot with dem legs and a cheaper alternative would be to customize one like we can

[MegaPrime33]

What is up with wolverine's claws? That has to be the biggest problem with most wolverine figures. The claws always end up deformed.

[eisen]

deformed in what way? i think that's how daken's claws are supposed to be positioned. or you mean that they're too thick?

[Excelsior07]

Mega, it's actually Daken, Wolverine's son in the comics. His distinctive tattoos give him away, and his claws are different then Wolverine's in that one of them comics out of his wrists.

@eisen: Ooo, ok. Never heard of that before, sorry.
