The most anticipated Marvel Comics based videogame in a long time has been unleashed--Marvel vs Capcom 3, the latest installment of Capcom's fighting game series featuring characters from Marvel Comics fighting each other as well as characters from such hit Capcom games as Resident Evil, Street Fighter, Devil May Cry, and others! The game released in February at the top of the videogame charts, and Arnie and Justin were two of the first in line! Does the game live up to the hype? Is it the best of the series? And who is better--Justin or Arnie? Listen to this week's Marvelicious Toys to find out! And in celebration of Marvel vs Capcom 3, Jerry joins us for another Timely Review looking back at the older Toy Biz Marvel vs Capcom and X-Men vs Street Fighter action figures. He tells you how well they hold up, and if they held their value! Also this week, while the new line of Iron Man Armored Avenger action figures have yet to hit pegs, cases have been shipping from online retailers. Arnie and Marjorie got a case and review all 11 new Iron Man, War Machine, and Battle Drone figures for you. And in conjuction with Now Playing podcast's new Marvel Comic Movie Retrospective Series, Arnie looks back on an odd duck of a collectible--the 1986 novelization of the first Marvel Comics based theatrical film--Howard the Duck. Listen to Arnie's book review, then head to nowplayingpodcast.com to hear an in-depth review of the film! With your voicemails, reports of markdowns of older Iron Man figures, a new Kotobukiya Fine Art statue, and more, it's all in the new podcast of Marvelicious Toys! And remember, they're not just toys, they're Marvelicious!

When it comes to Marvel in the mainstream news media, X-Men, Thor, and Captain America are all second-tier entertainment stories. Today's Marvel news is dominated by one multimedia production only--the Broadway show Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark. With songs by U2's Bono and The Edge and produced by The Lion King's Julie Taymor, this show has been maligned by theater critics and safety professionals alike. But how will Spider-Fans take the show? Is it worth racing to New York to experience before the Dark is turned off for good? Join Marjorie, Arnie, and guest host Stuart joining us from Now Playing, the movie review podcast. The three went to a preview showing of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark and are here to give you an unvarnished opinion of the show. Also this week, Justin reviews the two new Deluxe Thor figures! So turn off the Dark and turn up the volume for this issue of Marvelicious Toys!
