Marvelicious Toys

Hasbro broke new ground with the Sentinel Haslab project. It set records for the biggest Haslab response (until beaten by the Hasbro Galactus a year later). It became the largest Marvel Legends figure of all time. It could be Master Mold, Tri-Sentinel, Battle Damaged, or regular.

It was an ambitious project, preceded by awe-inspiring online tease photos.

Was it too ambitious?

On this Marvelicious Toys, join Arnie, Justin, and Marjorie for a hands-on review of the Sentinel, as well as the included Sentinel Prime/Bastion and Female Sentinel Prime 6-inch figures. Is the Sentinel worth the hype (and possibly the after-market eBay pricing)? Find out now!

Also on this show, hear our hosts give a contemporaneous review to Sony's Venom: Let there Be Carnage

We knew it was coming...now we know what it looks like: Hasbro's plastic-free packaging. This step towards sustainable packaging is certainly making waves among those who like to keep their figures mint in package. (Some people even buy extra plastic to protect Hasbro's paper-and-plastic packaging). On this new podcast our hosts react to the first look at the plastic-free figure packages.

Then, in an exclusive interview, Arnie and Justin talk to Hasbro's Marvel Team of Dan, Ryan, and Dwight to see what this means for retro carded figures, build-a-figures, and more!

Also on this show, there's a new sub-line of Legends: the Marvel Studios Legacy Collection. These rereleased figures have paint updates, but no build-a-figures. Our hosts debate if they're worth your dollars.

With a look at the 60th Anniversary Spider-Man figures, a Strange popcorn bucket, some love for No Way Home, and much more, it's all in this all-new Marvelicious Toys!

The Marvel team at Hasbro must wish they weren't working remotely. They could just walk into the office, drop a microphone, and walk out again. For the second time in a row they not only broke the HasLab funding records (in dollars AND backers), they smashed through it and just kept going. Not only is the Galactus HasLab funded, we are also getting the Nova figure, the Silver Surfer figure, the Morg figure, and an alternate Doctor Doom head!

In this podcast Justin, Marjorie, and Arnie have a postmortem on Galactus. It was a smash success, but could it have done even better? We dissect the HasLab from start to funding to finish.

Also in this week's show, the Hasbro team of Dwight Stall, Dan Yun, and Ryan Ting sat down with Arnie for a 20-minute exclusive interview. They talk retro 3.75-inch figures, retro Legends, Galactus, and more.

Finally, Hasbro has revealed their waves for the next two MCU movies -- The Eternals and Spider-Man: No Way Home. The hosts react to these reveals and ask the Eternals question: "who wants figures in ornate robes?"

With a discussion of next month's PulseCon and more, it's all in this week's Marvelicious Toys!

Justin, Marjorie, and Arnie are back and counting to Five, Electric Company style! Everyone does end-of-year best-of lists, but who does them in August? Marvelicious Toys! Join the hosts as they count down their favorite five figures so far in 2021, and the five they're anticipating most! Some of these selections will surprise you!

Also in this new show, an update on the Galactus Haslab. It's clawing towards its funding goal. The hosts discuss their hopes, but why is the number so high? Hasbro's Steve Evans gives an answer.

With the exciting news of the Haslab Sentinels getting ready to ship and more, it's all on this new Marvelicious Toys!

If you collect Marvel Legends 2022 has been a big year! There have been over 130 figures released, many of which were deluxe or box sets. Plenty of retro carded Legends figures right next to waves from the Marvel Cinematic Universe--Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Thor: Love and Thunder plus What If... and more.

And then, of course, a planet-eater (and shelf space-eater) arrived: the Haslab Galactus.

Now let's celebrate what a year it's been! Join Justin, Arnie, and guest host Matt "Big Nerdy" from Nerdzoic as they look at the best figures, best paint job, best articulation, and the best Galactus of 2022!
