The Hasbro Marvel Legends team took to Instagram today for a 30min live video presentation in which they revealed quite a lot of new Marvel Legends figures. All of the figures revealed - bar one - are open for pre-order as of the 19th of May 2022.
The piece started with a look at the next reveal for the Disney+ wave and it is a new Sharon Carter from last year's The Falcon & The Winter Soldier. It is unclear why this has not been released earlier considering there is no spoilers in doing so. The wave we know now contains Hawkeye, Kate Bishop, Moon Knight, Mr. Knight, and Sharon Carter with the Infinity Ultron BAF. There are two slots left with Ms. Marvel almost certain to be one of them. Sharon's promo blurb lists here release as March 2023 so the date on the next Disney+ wave is not moving as yet.
Moving to the Retro carded line and there were reveals for Firelord on a Fantastic Four card back as well as a War Machine on a Retro Iron-Man Card - this one is a repaint of the Modular Iron-Man figure. Spider-Man Bombastic Bag-Man was also shown, he is a US Target Exclusive - and will go to Toys R Us in Canada. In the UK he is a Fan Channel Exclusive.
War Machine and Bag-Man are listed for a December 2022 release with Firelord planned for January 2023.
Fans of the 3.75 inch Retro Series can look forward to a larger format and scaled figure of a Sentinel to display with your retro figures. He features two head options and effect parts and will ship in January 2023.
Joining the line-up for the 'Beyond Amazing' Spider-Man 60th Anniversary is the niche figure of the Toei Spider-Man from the Japanese cult TV series. He will be in the new closed box format. The Toei Japanese Spider-man is planned for a January 2023 release.
The final, and largest, reveal is a Summer Convention Exclusive box-set called Mojo World. The pack will feature a new Mojo figure as well as Dazzler, Longshot, and Wolverine Slug. The set is packed in a Retro TV outer box, and inside the figures are packed in VHS-styled boxes as well as a box that resembles the TV remote. Mojo World is a December 2022 release.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
