Deadpool Gets a Second Wave of Marvel Legends and Role Play Items
Deadpool is going to have a huge 2018, and with the new film will come a bunch of new toys and role-play items from Hasbro. All shipping in the fall, we are getting not only Marvel Legends but katanas and masks as well. Weirdly most of the items are aimed at kids and all-age folk, with Deadpool mostly being a more adult character that is a little strange. Lets take a look.
MARVEL DEADPOOL LEGENDS SERIES 6-INCH Figure Assortment (Wave 2)
(Ages 4 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2018)
Collect the fan-favorite Merc with a Mouth in this LEGENDS SERIES assortment! Featuring impressive deco, extensive articulation, and detailed accessories, each 6-inch scale figure comes with a different Build-A-Figure piece. Collect all the figures in this wave to complete the awesome Build-A-Figure. Includes characters from the comic books such as LADY DEADPOOL and OMEGA RED. Each figure sold separately. Available at most major retailers and on HasbroToyShop.com.
I am not surprised that there is a second wave of Deadpool Legends coming. Movie versions of Cable and Deadpool should be included as well. We may see those and ho the build a figure is at New York Toy Fair in a couple weeks. That Omega Red looks awesome, way better than the Toy Biz version from years ago. That Deadpool X-Men suit figure looks like a custom, I am not a fan.
MARVEL DEADPOOL 12-INCH DEADPOOL Figure
(Ages 14 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $9.99/Available: Fall 2018)
Get ready for more over-sized adventures with this 12-inch scale DEADPOOL figure featuring multiple points of articulation, sword and design inspired by the comics. Available at most major retailers and on HasbroToyShop.com.
This is where things get kinda weird. These 12-inch figures are not popular with collectors. They buy them for their kids. It may say ages 14 and up, but that is not who is playing with these. If I was getting my daughter a Deadpool figure, this would be the one. And she is 5.
MARVEL DEADPOOL FACE HIDER MASK
(Ages 14 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $9.99/Available: Fall 2018)
Imagine transforming into DEADPOOL with this adult-sized mask! Features adjustable straps to fit most heads and comic-based design for fans of all ages. Available at most major retailers and on HasbroToyShop.com.
MARVEL DEADPOOL KATANAS
(Ages 14 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $19.99/Available: Fall 2018)
DEADPOOL is always ready for action and fans can be too with these role play dual katana swords! Imagine gearing up for combat with these role play swords designed to look like the ones seen in the comics. Available at most major retailers and on HasbroToyShop.com.
While these items may say they are for fans of all ages, these are kids items. I mean, come on. Plastic katanas? Those are for young ones to run around and play as Wade Wilson. That is fine, but to say otherwise would just not be true.
These items will all ship in the fall.
