The family and I headed to watch the new Marvel Cinematic addition, Captain America; Brave New World. on its 2nd day of release. This is certainly not a film review as we are in the business of talking toys - but I can say that we all enjoyed it. Having watched the film in full it is fair to say that Hasbro has done pretty well in getting us the new Sam Wilson Captain America and Joaquín Torres as Falcon into the Marvel Legends series ahead of the movie release with little discrepancies to the two suits we see on screen. Unfortunately, their Red Hulk falls short of what we do finally see on the screen when President Ross finally succumbs to the anger within. The Hasbro Red Hulk is more of a generic release that could fit with the movie as much as it could with the comic books. The head sculpts are the main issue lacking any likeness to Harrison Ford - while the trousers are presented as the 'stretchy' pants worn by Hulk - and not the ripped and shredded trousers that Ross is wearing during his Red Hulk scenes. There is precedent for revisiting characters from the MCU to bring us more accurate versions, Hasbro has certainly done this with Cull Obsidian as well as tweaking the original Infinity War 'Nomad' Captain America. Whether Red Hulk will see the same treatment is yet to be seen? I always watch new movie offerings from Marvel to see if there are other characters and figures who we might want to see in the Marvel Legends series. While the recent offering of Deadpool & Wolverine had a very large roster that could make it to 6-inch format - Brave New World is more compact in terms of key characters. For me it would be a shame if Samuel Sterns (The Leader, albeit not named that way) doesn't get a release. As the main villain of the piece, he should be a safe bet for any future Brave New World figures - although we did think the same of The High Evolutionary from GOTG3. Sidewinder, as played by Giancarlo Esposito, would be a very toyetic release considering his military garb, extensive armory, and sunglasses. Less so would be the latest addition to the Black Widow program within the MCU and Ruth Bat-Seraph - most likely in her mission gear we see late on in the piece once she teams up with Cap and Falcon. And that then leaves President Thadeus 'Thunderbolt' Ross as a standard release in his Presidential garb - either in the suit from the White House scenes, or his Presidential Jacket while he was commanding the Navy operation at Celestial Island. A single release of Ross also provides an opportunity for Hasbro to throw in a Red Hulk head as an accessory - presenting a part fix to the Deluxe Red Hulk if we are not to get a retooled figure.

As shown at London Toy Fair in January 2025, Master Replicas are releasing a new line of Star Trek action figures preliminarily titled the Delta Series. Now over on StarTrek.com the line has officially been unveiled along with images of the first few figures. The line has made the decision to follow on directly from the Playmates series and will keep the same styling and scale of 4.5 inches. The license that Master Replicas hold is for figures from the newer Star Trek Universe shows from Paramount - namely Picard, Strange New Worlds, and Lower Decks. The first figures in the line will be drawn from this trio of shows - but the deal also covers Discovery, Prodigy and Section 31. The older movies and series will fall under the Nacelle Toys deal who are preparing a line of 6 inch scale collector figures. From Picard comes new figures of Jean Luc Picard, Riker, and Worf. They are joined by Spock from Strange New Worlds and by Boimer, Mariner, and Tendi from Below Decks. The press details also confirm work is ongoing on Pike and Ortegas from Strange New Worlds. The line launches in July 2025 with Spock and Picard in the initial offering. Spock comes with a Phaser, Phaser Holster, Tricorder, and Communicator. Picard will come with a phaser and PADD. Further figures will then follow on a monthly release basis at Master Replicas website with the UK price tag at £24.99 "I'm so happy to be doing this," Ben Robinson, who runs the program along with Eaglemoss' Starships collection, tells StarTrek.com. "The new shows have been crying out for action figures. There are a lot of collectors out there who already have Playmates figures and I want to give them the chance to bring those collections up-to-date by adding characters like Pike and Mariner. As always, we're going to go deep and I'm excited that we're already working on Ortegas and Tendi." Master Replicas acknowledges nothing has been more popular than the classic 4.75" figures from Playmates, which first debuted in the 90s. Recognizing the place Playmates figures have in a lot of people's hearts, they aim to continue the story of action figures at that size. This new programs does not ask fans to rebuild their collections from scratch, but to add to what they already have. Star Trek: Lower Decks streams exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S. and is distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution. In Canada, it airs on Bell Media’s CTV Sci-Fi Channel. The series will also be available to stream on Paramount+ in the UK, Canada, Latin America, Australia, Italy, France, the Caribbean, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Ireland and South Korea.
