Issue 170: The Raft - JAILBREAK!

Abomination. Purple Man. Spider-Man. Enchantress. Sandman. Dread Knight.  What do these disparate Marvel Comics characters have in common? They are the characters Hasbro bundled together in their 2016 San Diego Comic-Con Exclusive Marvel Legends set -- The Raft!  ​They sold out at the show and last Tuesday online, but now you can join the Marvelicious Toys crew as they review these six figures!  And they tell you how you can get most of them soon.

Also on this week's show are reviews of the new Marvel Legends Role Play Captain America shield.  Priced at about $100, this is Hasbro's first entry into high end Marvel collectibles. There's a metal shield coming this Fall, but should you jump on the current (cheaper) version? Find out on this show.

With reviews of Jada Toys' Black Widow figure, some great bargains on Marvel Legends figures, and so much more, it's all in this issue of Marvelicious Toys!

Issue 167: Tickets to the Gun Show

Convention season is in full effect! This past weekend saw major cons in D.C., Phoenix, and California. For our Marvelicious hosts Arnie and Marjorie, however, the place to be was Philadelphia, PA -- along with Lea Thompson, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Hayley Atwell, Dominic Cooper, Stanley Tucci, and Tom Hiddleston! All these celebrities, and dozens more, were gathered at Wizard World Philadelphia. On this show, hear a report from the floor -- the good, the bad, and the photo ops!

But coming soon is the world's bigest convention: San Diego Comic-Con International! Every year the exclusives are enough to fill a room and break the bank, and the reveals and pre-orders have already begun! Kotobukiya, Mezco, Monogram International, and Diamond Select toys all have revealed some or all of their offerings -- and it appears Hasbro's 3.75-inch Legends set has leaked to eBay! Listen to find out what has been revealed and how much you should budget this year.

Finally, on this show hear an overview of the new Marvel Legends 6-inch figures put up for pre-order. Three new waves, X-Men, Spider-Man, and Captain America, all went up for order--and one of those waves is already selling out across the web!

Issue 162: C2E 2 Illigit to Quit! -- Audio Podcast

Last weekend at Chicago's C2E2 convention was a rare gathering of Arnie, Marjorie, Justin, and other Marvelicious Team Members. Together they shopped, they chatted, and they partied with some listeners.  Of course, they also recorded a new episode of Marvelicious Toys!

Gathered in person, our hosts looked at the Square Enix Variant Play Arts Kai figures. Standing about 10-inches tall, they reviewed Captain America, Thor, Spider-Man, Black Widow, Iron Man, and Venom!

But there's a twist...! After recording the hosts found out half the figures were Chinese bootlegs! So after the con the team reconvened to compare these fakers with the real deal, and tell YOU how to spot the difference!  It's all in this mega-episode of Marvelicious Toys!

This episode of Marvelicious Toys is a full video episode--but those will be the exception going forward.  To bring back the full video shows we need listener help to keep the show growing! Check out our crowdfunding campaign, live now on PodBean
