SDCC Hasbro News Round-Up Part 2
More news coming out of SDCC 2010 today as Hasbro gives it’s long-awaited panel. The future of Marvel Legends, awesome Marvel Universe reveals, and even some (if I do say so myself) lackluster Super Hero Squad reveals.
Marvel Universe:
A Masterworks Sentinel. Actually, two! (Seen Here)
Marvel Universe Gigantic Battles Bill Foster “Giant Man” or Goliath, and Thor Clone/Clor/Ragnarok, together with a Loki/Frost Giant pairing seen here and here.
Spring sees an original Avengers set, with Iron Man, Thor, Ant-Man, Wasp and Hulk (seen here), and a Deadpool, Wolverine and Warpath X-Force set seen here.
The Hasbro diorama and display case was updated with some of these new figures, as seen here. Jessica Drew’s Spider-Woman helps round out the New Avengers, while Spider-Man 2099 and Doc Samson are also shown. Cybernetic War Marchine is also shown in this picture. Heroic Age Iron Man, and better pictures of Spider-Man 2099 and World War Hulk are visible at this gallery.
Spring 2011′s Wave 1 has World War Hulk (here), Captain Marvel (here).
Meanwhile, Spring 2011′s release of 2011 Wave 2 includes a Jim Lee inspired Cyclops (here), and kitty-eared First Appearance Wolverine (here) to round out your collection of Giant Sized X-Men, and Gladiator (here), and Apocalypse (here). Yeah, that’s a lot of X-Men in one wave.
Spider-Man’s 3.75 inch line will apparently be adding Scorpion (here).
And finally, for Super Hero Squad news: repaints a plenty. Red Hulk/Iron Man, Spider-Man/Spider-Woman (aka Arachne, Julia Carpenter), and Wolverine/Polaris (well, we’re only reasonably sure. It’s a repaint of the Scarlet Witch) were shown on one slide. War Machine/Iron Patriot, Spider-Man and the City in Crisis Green Goblin, and the Secret Wars 4-Pack Spider-Man are shown with the new Thor sculpt on a second slide. Ultimate Captain America gets a Squad Cruiser shown on one slide, while if you look at the Toyark slides, you can see the Cyclops and Wolverine with a Quinjet slide.
