Article Summary

Celebrate Marvel Legends' new Banshee figure in classic Giant-Size X-Men #1 attire with epic accessories.
Detailed 6" Banshee features articulated design, perfect for posing and showcasing in collections.
Includes swappable heads, hands, and a special mini comic for a truly immersive collector experience.
Available pre-order starts Feb 6 on Hasbro Pulse; get ready for its anticipated Spring 2025 release.

New Marvel Legends are on the way from Hasbro with new packaging and new accessories. Banshee, also known as Sean Cassidy, is back and made his first appearance in X-Men #28 (1967). Created by Roy Thomas and Werner Roth, this Irish mutant has a powerful sonic scream that allows him to fly and create powerful sound waves. Banshee initially appeared as a villain but would later be reformed and joined the X-Men in Giant-Size X-Men #1 (1975). Marvel Legends recently saw Banshee in a three-pack featuring his yellow and blue X-Suit, but this new release takes him back to his signature green outfit.

This new Marvel Legends version of Banshee is based on his Giant-Size X-Men #1 appearance and will feature a swappable head, extra hands, and his very own Marvel Comics comic. That is right, Hasbro is now adding bite-size comics with this unique wave of Marvel Legends, which toy photographers will surely appreciate. Banshee is priced at $24.99; he is set to go up for pre-order on February 6 at 1 PM EST on Hasbro Pulse and other retailers with a Spring 2025 release.
