Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will release on the 5th of May 2023. As we head toward the movie's debut, we now have a full reveal for the Marvel Legends figures for the movie.
Please be aware some of the images and promo text may be considered minor plot point spoilers.
The wave will be a full MCU wave with all the figures and the BAF based on their appearance in the movie. We can look forward to an (almost) full Guardians crew in their new comic-inspired uniforms with figures of Star-Lord, Drax, Nebula, Mantis, and Rocket.
Star-Lord will feature his usual twin blasters, while Rocket includes his large laser cannon. Nebula gets a hand blaster, a larger blaster weapon, and an alternative sword arm. Drax comes with the twin blades as seen in his previous releases. Poor Mantis has no accessories at all.
We also get a new figure of Will Poulter's Adam Warlock. Like Mantis, he is devoid of any accessories or alternative parts. Kraglin also makes his MCU figure debut complete with the fin he inherited from Yondu, as well as a knife and the Yaka arrow with arrow-stream effect. He is wearing his Ravager uniform.
The build-a-figure for the wave is an interesting choice in the shape of Cosmo the dog. This will therefore be the smallest BAF in the Marvel Legends wave to date. Parts of Cosmo are spread across all 6 figures in the wave apart from Star-Lord.
There will then be a Deluxe release for Groot who will come with a Baby Rocket accessory, alternative hands and a pair of wings.
At this stage there is no release for Gamora who is the obvious miss, she may end up being an exclusive - similar to how Hasbro handled Thena and Ajax for Eternals. The GOTG Vol. 3 figures are open for pre-order as of the 22nd of February 2023. They are due for a Spring 2023 release.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
