Hasbro have held their Festive Marvel Legends Fan First Event on the 14th of December, and the event kicked straight into some new reveals with the first look at the new October Guard Red Widow figure (only previously previewed as a digital image).
The panel then went on to reveal a new series of Marvel Studios figures starting in 2024 offering repacks of previous Marvel Cinematic Universe releases aimed at the 'casual fan' or those wanting to catch up on MCU releases. These come in a new box design that is similar in shape and branding to the Infinity Saga sets but with a much brighter blue colouring with a yellow backing card. The two releases shown were the Mk85 Iron-Man from Endgame and the Iron-Spider from Infinity War. These are the only two releases in 2024 to this line.
There were sneak peeks of two new comic book retailer exclusives. The first is a new Sam Wilson Captain America figure, now with his wingsuit. The release also features an updated shield and shield logo. It is a Spring 2024 Target (US) exclusive. Sam is joined by a new Captain America (Steve Rogers), this one is the 'Hail Hyrdra' version from the alternative universe and comes with a new shield. The figure is a Walmart (US) Exclusive in Spring 2024.
The team then talked through the new X-Men 97 Legends Wave as shared yesterday.
The stream then moved on to 2024 celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Wolverine. Like the X-Men Anniversary, the 50th for Wolverine will be marked with four 2-pack releases. These start with a Brood Wolverine who comes alongside Lilandra as revealed back at the Luca Comics event in Italy last month. This is a Fan Channel shared item for Spring 2024, and opens for pre-order on the 15th of December.

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...
