Gamerverse Spider-Man Marvel Legends
So I got these two bad boys yesterday, the Velocity Suit Spider-Man and the Spider-Armor Mk III (aka the Ends of the Earth armor). And I have to say, I’m in love. Not only are they a great expansion to my Gamerverse collection, but they are welcome additions to my ever-growing Spider-Verse.
The Spider-Armor Mk III is a suit I’ve been waiting for in figure form since I read the Ends of the Earth arc back in 2012. It took 8 years, but I finally have this guy, and I couldn’t be happier.
The Velocity suit, now that’s one that grew on me. When I first saw it announced as a pre-order bonus for Marvel’s Spider-Man on PS4, I was like, “Nah.” But when I got the game, and saw it in action, and then read the comic behind its creation, I gained a new appreciation for the duds. It looks really sleek, cool, and it’s earned it place among my Legends.
Now the only drawback I can think of is that there’s no interchangeable hands. Honestly, at this point in the game, Hasbro knows better, and I hope an oversight like this doesn’t happen again. It really limits posing and what I can in my videos, you know?
That being said, I can’t think of any other reason to dislike these figures. Definitely a must-have for Spider-Man fans and Legends collectors alike! They get an Ultimate from me!
As for the web effects that each Spidey came with, well, all I can say is I wish I’d had them years ago! (Demoed beautifully on the new Vulture figure below!)

AZ Toy-Con 2019
Over the weekend I went to a Toy-Con in Glendale, AZ! The video down below highlights my exploits and misadventures! Enjoy!

Giant-Man Unleashed!
Upon seeing the Marvel Legends Giant-Man re-release, I got all nostalgic and wanted to play with mine. Giving him the lamppost is the best thing I’ve ever done with this figure by the way. I don’t know why Hasbro didn’t think to give him something like this or a chunk of concrete for the re-release, but oh well. Guess us collectors have to think of everything!

Me and the Boys
I’m sorry, I couldn’t help myself…

Marvel Legends Beast & Gambit
Check out the unboxing video of my new Marvel Legends Beast and Gambit! Straight outta the 90’s, these two get me one step closer owning every mutant in that classic show! Now I just need Jean (who I could already have, but… story for another day), Storm in her white outfit (because I already have, like, 3 Storms), and Professor X in the hover chair, which I didn’t think I’d need since I’ve got one in the wheelchair, but life clearly has other plans. Check out the shots of my new figures below!

Welcome to Marvel City
Hasbro, eat your heart out! Welcome to the future! Welcome, to Marvel City! I had time, I was bored, so why not?
Looks like All-New, All-Different Spider-Man has a bird’s eye of the entire scene below!
A city of heroes…
Bound by honor…
To protect it at all costs!
Captain America, Sentinel of Liberty and the First Avenger, never relents in the fight against the forces of HYDRA!
Black Bolt has something to say, and when he talks, people listen!
Wasp patrols the skies, while Thor summons strength from Odin in Asgard above! And Star-Lord’s always ready for action! But where’d his tunes go?
Of course, no one stands a chance when Iron Man and War Machine team up to take down the bad guys!
Lifelong friends Spider-Woman and Captain Marvel are two women you DO NOT want to mess with! Unless you want a venom blast and a cosmic punch to the face! And is that Vision phasing through the ground behind them?
Speaking of Venom, what rock did this Sinister Symbiote crawl from under?
Falcon soars high, but a particularly sneaky Black Cat gets away with some pilfered goods! Oh Felicia, will you ever learn?
By the Ruby Rings of the Crimson Bands of the Hoary Hosts… Whatever! Doctor Strange is here to make with the hocus pocus!
Black Widow gives Hawkeye a lift on her sweet ride, they always worked better as a team! Let’s just hope that Ms. Marvel can stop fangirling long enough to Embiggen!
‘Ol J. Jonah Jameson isn’t too happy with all these superheroes tearing things up outside of Bugle offices! It doesn’t help that Giant-Man is mocking him either…
There are tales… legends of a Spirit of Vengeance… The Ghost Rider, making the best of a deal with the devil!
What did Deadpool get himself into this time? Maybe a certain Infinity Gauntlet-wielding Mad Titan wasn’t too fond of Lady Death’s fascination with this clown…
Looks like the newest Spider-Man on the block, Miles Morales, snagged a classic Spidey baddy, the Shocker! Great job Miles!
Meanwhile, the Immortal Iron Fist has engaged the terrible Taskmaster in combat! Don’t use your best moves Danny, you know he can copy them!
Storm and Silk watch over the city, a valiant long-time member of the X-Men, and a Spider trying to find her place in the world after 10 years away…
Bravery is not measured in size, and Rocket and Baby Groot prove that throwing down with one of the biggest Marvel villains out there, the Rhino!
But there are always bigger Marvel villains, lurking in the distance…
But here to protect his city is none other than Daredevil! Keeping a watchful… ear, from above! And Spider-Gwen aka Ghost Spider doesn’t look stressed, she’s listening to the latest hit from her band the Mary Janes! Wait… there’s Star-Lord’s tunes! Dang it Gwen!
But down below, titans clash, as Hulk pins down one of his worst foes, the Abomination!
This Marvel power couple knows no bounds, Cyclops and Phoenix are always here to save the day, and mutant-kind!
And bow down (wait, they don’t do that there…) for the King of Wakanda, Black Panther! With Okoye by his side, nothing’s getting past him! Wakanda forever!
So there you have it. Heroes…
That swore to fight.
To stand for justice.
To Assemble. In our darkest hours.
And to let us know, that they will always be here.

Marvel Problems #009
I understand the SDCC Exclusives, like Jane Foster, Dormammu and now Magik. Not everyone has a chance to get them, so that’s fine. But when I spend months, going from barren Walmart toy section to barren Walmart toy section, gathering each piece of a giant Build-A-Figure, forced to buy a random Marvel villain nobody wants just so I can get the head or the torso, I really get steamed when Hasbro puts out the full, complete figure years later! Now that, that stings.

MOVIES
A brand new book notating the first 10 years of Marvel Studios! This looks like a fun read, unfortunately it’s not coming out until next year! Well, maybe that’s so it can include information from Avengers 4! Click Here for more information.
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse had some new announcements, 3 in particular. They’ve confirmed Spider-Man Noir, Sp//dr (Remember her? Little girl, big robot?) and Spider-Ham. Voiced respectively by Nicholas Cage, Kimiko Glenn, and John Mulaney. Also this new image which may or may not be my new wallpaper! Also, Peter is 40 years old and has a bad back?!
Venom put out some new info also! One of the four “Lethal Protector” Symbiotes, Riot, has been confirmed as a villain! And Tom Hardy says he’d love to go toe to toe with Tom Holland, with hopes they’ll cross paths somewhere down the line. I… don’t have my fingers crossed, but anything is possible.
GAMES
New story trailer for Marvel’s Spider-Man PS4, as well as the premier of the Velocity Suit, the 3rd and final pre-order suit, and the debut of the Spider-Man themed PS4 Pro! I’m so excited for this! Honestly, it looks better and better each time. The Velocity suit is unique, it is an Insomniac original creation after all. And if you’re looking to pre-order that PS4, well, Click Here.
New trailer from Marvel Battle Lines, the new mobile card game. Yet another mobile game, and a card game at that, but, it’s always worth a look.
New trailer from the VR game on Oculus Rift, Marvel Powers United VR. It’s actually around the corner! It looks so cool, I can’t wait!
Marvel Future Fight has FINALLY put out an original soundtrack! Click Here for a link to the album on Spotify. I highly suggest The Arrival of X-Men and Luna Snow- Tonight.
Spider-Man will go down swinging against the Red Goblin in Spider-Man Unlimited! I do like this game, it’s still hanging in there. Lesser games would have already pulled the plug, so I’m glad Spider-Man Unlimited still has a place. Oh, and make sure to use the code “REDGOBLIN” to play as the Red Goblin! He’s super fun!
TELEVISION
New trailer from season 2 of Iron Fist! Danny is dishing out some street justice after Daredevil made him promise to protect the city. I actually enjoyed season 1, it picked up in the second half, so let’s hope this season can outdo it!
New clip for Marvel Rising, pitting Ms. Marvel and Squirrel Girl against Ghost Spider, aka Spider-Gwen! I’ll post an article about this show/movie soon…
A sizzle reel for Cloak and Dagger’s last episodes! The show, especially yesterday’s episode, has been nothing short of fantastic, and they promised on Twitter that season 2 would be… Mayhem! I mean, an actual super villain for these two to fight isn’t such a bad idea!
News from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.! Clark Gregg is returning, but they only mention that he’s directing the first episode… I have no idea if Agent Coulson is coming back, he does have Captain Marvel to shoot, but it would seriously suck if he actually died… again. Also, Deke is back? Shouldn’t he have, you know, faded from existence?
The X-Men show we never knew we wanted, The Gifted, is back for season 2! And Lorna’s having a super baby! Usually mutant powers don’t manifest until puberty, but I guess it’s the grandchild of Magneto, so… Also the Inner Circle is in full force! And here’s to hoping that the ‘real’ underground is Morlocks!
COMICS
Spider-Geddon, or what looks to be Spider-Verse part 2, is launching in October! Also announced are two new comics, Spider-Gwen: Ghost Spider (Great, because I was devastated when I heard they were canning Spider-Gwen’s comic) and The Superior Octopus (Bleh! No thank you! Superior Spider-Man is a year of my life I do not want to relive!) For more information, Click Here.
Marvel Knights are coming back! With Daredevil, Black Panther, Punisher, and Karnak? What an interesting team… Click Here for more.
The Uncanny X-Men return to comics this November.
TOYS
Marvel Legends graces us with another wave of Black Panther figures in December, including King T’Chaka, Black Panther (with a head that doesn’t look like Drake), Ulysses Klaue, and Okoye (and after all the hard work I put into the BAF!) Click Here for more pics and info!
Marvel has announced the Masterworks collection, selling lifelike props from the MCU, including: Captain America’s shield, Iron Man Mk I helmet, Baby Groot, the Eye of Agamotto, and T’Chaka’s ring! Click Here to buy them now!
Into the Spider-Verse has new toys! Now, I know I clowned on the knee joints in an earlier post, but they’ve got a Scorpion (also confirming he’s in the movie!) Sp//dr (with a Peni Parker!), Spider-Verse Mighty Mugs, and a Marvel Legends Miles and Gwen 2-Pack! Boom! I apologize, I was too harsh earlier…
