Unboxing The Marvel Collectors Corps Superhero Showdown Box…SPOILERS!
[rwp-review id="0"]
Today I received the Marvel Collector Corps Funko Box for February, and I have to say I was quite happy with the box! When this theme was first announced I thought they could get a little more creative with what would come inside, and they did not disappoint at all. What we got here covered a wide variety of products that highlight everything that Funko does well.
Right from the outset, the box art this time is great, very striking artwork. Daredevil and Bullseye are right up there on my list of favorite Marvel adversaries, so I will be saving this box. The patch on the inside features two characters for the first time, and while not my two favorites, it is a cool looking patch. The Compound Hulk pin is also a nice touch.
T-Shirt wise, it is hard to argue against it being Spider-Man and Green Goblin, but I personally would have liked this reversed with the comic cover, which features Wolverine Vs Sabertooth in Pop form on an exclusive Inhumans Vs X-Men #1 cover. Both are still cool, I am just more a fan of the mutants, and can never have enough shirts featuring them.
The surprise in here for me would be the inclusion of Pint-Size Heroes. These things have come out of nowhere as really skyrocketed in popularity as of late, almost eclipsing Mystery Minis in popularity. These things are so adorable and tiny, you can easily display them anywhere, and for figures so small the sculpt is pretty damn good.
The main event of any of these boxes is the Pop exclusive, and this is one of the better ones so far. Daredevil in this action pose and on the stand really makes this one stand out, and the Pop debut of Bullseye could not have turned out any better.
All in all, this is one of the better Collector Corps boxes they have done, and I am hoping that the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 box in April is just as good. You can order that box right now here.
