Hasbro has announced the upcoming release of three new Marvel Legends figures, including updated versions of Deadpool and Strong Guy, set to be available for pre-order today. The figures, which feature enhanced details and articulation, are poised to attract collectors looking for fresh editions of popular characters and those who missed out on previous releases.
New Deadpool Figure Offers Upgraded Design
The latest Deadpool Marvel Legends figure arrives with updated sculpting and new accessories, continuing Hasbro’s push to refine its lineup of iconic Marvel characters. Collectors have noted improvements in details and articulation over older versions, while some have debated whether the changes are substantial enough to warrant a new purchase if they already own prior incarnations.
Strong Guy Returns with New Accessories
Hasbro also introduced a revised Strong Guy figure in this deluxe wave. The new release includes additional hands and heads, with subtle modifications to the legs and torso. While some fans welcome the refinements, others suggest this year’s line continues a trend of re-releasing upgraded versions rather than debuting entirely new characters, emphasizing appeal for those who missed past opportunities.
Challenges and Collector Reactions
The updated releases highlight ongoing tooling constraints in the figure manufacturing process, with some figures featuring legacy design elements. Fans expressed opinions about certain updates, such as added pins, that may detract from the technical advances expected in modern collector-grade figures. Nevertheless, anticipation remains high for the pre-order launch and Hasbro’s commitment to maintaining excitement within the Marvel Legends community.
