Good news if you missed the original Marvel Legends Civil War Giant Man BAF as he is being released as a single packed figure. While the sculpt remains unchanged, the figure will get a revised paint job with a more metallic sheen overall. He is packed in a standard Marvel Legends box, the size usually reserved for 2-packs. They have overcome his height by a very interesting kneeling pose as though he is stopping the top of the box collapsing. The backdrop contains images from the Airport Battle in Captain America Civil War. Pricing is around £28 and he is due December 2019.

As the dust settles on SDCC 2019 let's have a good look at the new Marvel Legends figures announced by Hasbro at their San Diego panel. As far as the MCU goes we had the full Avengers Endgame 3rd wave revealed at the SDCC Press Breakfast, and a re-pack of the Civil War Giant Man pack confirmed at the panel - click through the links to see both of these. We have also looked at the future 2020 releases for Marvel Legends. This article focuses on the announced 2019 releases, including the 80th Anniversary releases. There have been a couple of X-Men sets rumoured and talked about in listings for some time now as part of the Marvel 80th Anniversary celebrations. These are now confirmed, and we start with a 3-pack of arguably the three main X-Men characters of Jean Grey, Cyclops and Wolverine. Wolverine gets a couple of head options and for the first time - bone claws. Jean Grey, teased on the SDCC 2019 X-Men comic book cover posters, gets two head options. As does Cyclops, who also comes with swap out hand so you can pose him with balled fists, or positioning his visor ready to suit. This set is due for an December 2019 release. Arriving a bit earlier in October is the other X-Men set containing Havok and Polaris. These two do not get as many add on options but do have some bundled magical FX Pieces. Both these sets come in new vibrant blue and yellow packaging to reflect the 1990's era for X-Men comics. We have some single carded releases too in the 80th Anniversary with the announcement of an X-Force Deathlok, complete with mini-gun and a small arsenal of other weaponry. Similarly well armed is the new Punisher figure, depicting Frank Castle in his more modern camo combat trousers as well as Punisher Skull face paint. An alternative head with a bandana is also included. Both Punisher and Deathlok are listed as a November 2019 release.

We have also looked at the imminent 2019 releases for Marvel Legends including more announcements in the 80th Anniversary line. This article focuses on the future 2020 releases. We start with a new Spider-Man wave in 2020 and this will include figures from the PS4 game. Two were revealed at SDCC 2019, the Velocity Suit and the Spider-Armor Mk3. Joining Spider-Man in the wave is Shang-Chi. An apt choice considering the confirmation of a Shang-Chi MCU movie. And for the bad guys we have a classic comic book Vulture. More figures will be confirmed for this wave as we move through the rest of 2019 with Hasbro repeating last years process of reveals at all major worldwide conventions. THe X-Men wave for 2020 looks to be themed around the Age of Apocalypse and will include a new Weapon X Wolverine. He will be joined by Morph and a Nate Grey. The rest of this wave is still to be confirmed including the BAF. One BAF we do know is incoming is Strong Guy and he is listed as being the BAF for a 2020 Deadpool wave. From the New Mutants comes Dani Moonstar, a figure previewed and cancelled back in 2012. Dani will be the next Walgreens US exclusive, with a wider fan channel release worldwide. The Hasbro team have cleverly inserted two extra heads with this set so you can also make Wolfsbane and Karma from X-Factor - potentially tripling sales on the set. The next two figures are from what we expect to be an Avengers themed 2020 wave. Up first is the Jennifer Walters Modern Hulk (not the classic She-Hulk) and she is joined by a classic Doctor Doom. The final two reveals are part of the Riders series. Squirrel Girl is an obvious re-use of the Deadpool Scooter, but brings this fan favourite into the Legends series in 2020. The final reveal is a stunning Cosmic Ghost Rider along with his Intergalactic Motorcycle.

Below are the Marvel Legends cpmicbook reveals from Hasbro at SDCC 2019. Loving the look of She-hulk and Shang Chi. We do tidy up the news over next few days when all promo images are sent out.

Over in Japan Medicom have revealed a move into the Horror genre with this MAFEX Chucky from Child's Play 2. We do not know much else at this stage, although we can see from the image that the figure will utilise soft goods clothing over an articulated body.

Alien - 1/4 Scale Action Figure - 40th Anniversary Big Chap Celebrate the 40th anniversary of the original 1979 movie that shocked audiences and jump-started a legendary film franchise! We’ve given a deluxe upgrade to the Xenomorph known to fans as “Big Chap,” with an all-new sculpt standing over 22” tall. It has a hinged jaw that opens, revealing an inner mouth that extends for realistic movie action. It has over 30 points of articulation, including double knee joints and a bendable tail, and extra attention has been paid to all the eerie details that made H.R. Giger's designs for Alien so mesmerizing. The packaging is a special tribute to the 1979 Kenner Alien figure! Shipping Date: November 2019

Diamond have revealed two new Select figures of Jay and Silent Bob from the upcoming reboot movie that premieres in October 2019. There are no other details at this stage, but we would expect these to follow suit with previous Diamond Jay & Silent Bob and Mallrats figures and that they will come with some form of diorama display.

S.O.D - 8” Clothed Action Figure - Sgt. D Straight from the cover of S.O.D.’s satirical metal album, the band’s Sgt. D character comes to life as a clothed action figure. Standing 8 inches tall, the figure comes with removable helmet and rifle accessory. Shipping Date: December 2019

Mattel have shown off this new 6 inch scale Multiverse Alfred figure. The figure is supplied with four heads, allowing you to have your choice of which Alfred version you want for your display. The heads (and please correct me if I am out here) represent Alfred from the Batman TV Show (Alan Napier), Alfred from the Brave and the Bold, Alfred from the 1989 Keaton Batman (Michael Gough) and quite possibly a Gotham Knight Alfred.
