Marvel’s Hercules Looks Pumped and Ready as a New Exclusive Figure
Some might call Hercules the original superhero. Drawn from Greek mythology by way of Roman reinterpretation, the super-powered demigod fought all manner of monsters and villains. It’s no wonder some version of the character appears in the pages of virtually every comics publisher, from Charlton and DC to Marvel. But it’s the Marvel one who shines today, as the scantily clad beefcake hero of Greece gets a new online exclusive action figure, on vintage Toy Biz-style card. (Though he never actually appeared on such a card before.)

Toy Review: McFarlane Toys 2021 Dune Movie Action Figures
Arrakis. Dune. Desert planet. Sci-fi fans know these words well, but they haven’t always translated to the screen.

Deadpool, Josh Trank’s
First Class onward, only comics-related tie-in merch came out. When Disney acquired Fox, fans got excited not just for X-Men in the MCU movies, but also for toys based on the previous Fox films that Hasbro hadn’t been allowed to make before.

Toy Review: NECA Christmas Gremlin – Ultimate Santa Stripe

Christmas Vacation and
Elf. In years where they may not have a new Christmas movie’s rights, however, there are sometimes variants from characters they already do. This year, NECA has fitted the Misfits’ Fiend mascot and
