Unleash the Beast with Hasbro's New Astonishing X-Men Marvel Legends 

Expand your collection with some brand new Marvel Legends figures as Hasbro has revealed that new figures are in the way

The "cat version" of Beast from the X-Men comics comes to life with a brand new Marvel Legends release. Originally depicted as a large but relatively human-looking mutant in X-Men #1 (1963), Beast's first major physical change came in Marvel Comics with Amazing Adventures #11 (1972). However, it wasn't until Grant Morrison's New X-Men run in the early 2000s that Beast took on a more feline, lion-like form. Then again in New X-Men #114 (2001), artist Frank Quitely redesigned Hank with a sleeker, more agile, and distinctly cat-like appearance, which divided many fans.

This new change was explained in-universe as a secondary mutation, a genetic evolution that further enhanced his senses, agility, and reflexes. X-Men fans can now build up their Astonishing X-Men collection with Hasbro's new Beast. This new figure features Hanks cat-like appearance and will come in a blister pack and a mini comic book accessory. This new Astonishing X-Men Marvel Legends Beast does get a new price tag of $27.99, and pre-orders are live with a January 2026 release date.
