Classic Marvel Figurine Collection #15: Thor

After years of searching, I finally got a hold of myself Thor's figurine. I started collecting these figurines around 2008 and Thor was a very hard find. I don't buy online so comic conventions and local specialty stores are the only options for me for acquiring these things.

I said before that I'm gonna lay low for a while from collecting CMFC whenever I get Thor so that's what I'm gonna do, although I'd get Punisher, Scarlet Witch, and the soon-to-be released Giant Man when I see them.

Now that I have Thor, the core members of the Avengers are finally complete! Onto the pictures!

Classic Marvel Figurine Collection Special: M.O.D.O.K.

Non-comic book fans usually have no idea who this guy is. However, M.O.D.O.K. suddenly had a surge of popularity. He frequently appeared in Marvel's web series called "Marvel Superheroes: What the-?!" as comic relief. You guys should check out that series. It's pretty funny.

Although that webseries gave him some decent exposure to casual readers, I think being included in the cast of Marvel vs. Capcom 3 gave him a boost in popularity. It's surprising to see him get included in the game, but I think Marvel wanted him there.

Anyway hit the jump to see the pictures.

Classic Marvel Figurine Collection #164: Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell)

I didn't get the first Captain Marvel (Genis-Vell) lead figurine Eaglemoss released a few years ago because I'm not familiar with that version of him. And I was actually wondering why they chose him for the Captain Marvel figurine. But after a long wait, fans of the most well-known Captain Marvel in the Marvel universe will rejoice now that Eaglemoss has finally released Mar-Vell. I was actually waiting for this one, too.

Now my Marvel cosmic characters Black BoltGladiator, Thanos, Galactus, and Beta Ray Bill will have another friend to be displayed beside them. Hit the jump to see the pictures.

DC Comics Superhero Collection #83: GL Kyle Rayner

Finally after 82 issues, they released Kyle Rayner's lead figure. Although I would much prefer for Eaglemoss to have sculpted him in his classic black costume. But anyway here he is.

DC Comics Superhero Collection - Blackest Night #7: Indigo-1

Out of all the Lanterns, the Indigo Tribe is by far the most mysterious, as not much is revealed about them. But recently, Geoff Johns has been slowly working out the characterization for this particular tribe. Anyway, here's their leader - Indigo-1


DC Comics Superhero Collection - Blackest Night #6: Parallax

Here comes the yellow entity of fear - Parallax, in Hal Jordan's body. One of the best villains in the Green Lantern mythos in my opinion.

DC Comics Superhero Collection - Blackest Night #5: Star Sapphire

Okay, it clearly says "Carol Ferris" on the magazine cover. But she's the most well-known and only Star Sapphire of Earth so it's only right to call her that. Here's Hal Jordan's love interest - Star Sapphire Carol Ferris.


DC Comics Superhero Collection - Blackest Night #4: Saint Walker

After the Red Lantern Atrocitus, let's take a look at the lead figure of Saint Walker, the Blue Lantern of hope.


DC Comics Superhero Collection - Blackest Night #2: Atrocitus

Diamond Comics, the distributor, had a little mess up with the releases of these figures. If you've read my previous post, you'd notice Larfleeze got out first before Atrocitus. But all's good now that the big red monster is out.

Classic Marvel Figurine Collection #140: Beta Ray Bill

Up to this day I'm still wishing I could get Thor's lead figure. He's really hard to find nowadays and whenever I see one, either he's reserved or the price is jacked up to Asgard. But Beta Ray Bill will chip in his place for now.


DC Comics Superhero Collection - Blackest Night #3: Larfleeze

You read it right, we're into number 3 already. I don't know why the distributor (Diamond) of this figures skipped Atrocitus. But oh well, on to the post. The comic relief of the bunch and the only member of his corps - Larfleeze.


DC Comics Superhero Collection - Blackest Night #1: Black Hand

No doubt "Blackest Night" has been a great success for DC, spawning toy lines and recently, a mini-bust line, and now Eaglemoss has jumped into the bandwagon and started its own "Blackest Night" line of lead figures.

And who's better to start a "Blackest Night" line than the main villain of the story - Black Hand.


DC Comics Superhero Collection #70: Power Girl

One of my favorite female superheroes (along with Ms. Marvel) gets the lead figure treatment by Eaglemoss - Power Girl.

DC Comics Superhero Collection Special: Kilowog

I got a new lead figure weeks ago, but I just got to posting it now. Here's the big guy of the Green Lantern Corps: Kilowog.

Classic Marvel Figurine Collection #129: Ant-Man

Although this Ant-Man is not Dr. Hank Pym anymore, the name Ant-Man is still one of the core members of the Avengers. The more I look at this figure, the more it looks better to me.

Classic Marvel Figurine Collection #101: War Machine

If you have Iron Man in your collection, you gotta have a War Machine. He's like a greyscaled Iron Man, but with more guns and missiles!


Classic Marvel Figurine Collection #30: Black Panther

Here's another one of the main members of the Avengers - Black Panther.


Classic Marvel Figurine Collection Special: The Hulk

After waiting for a few years, I finally got myself one of the core members of the Avengers - The Hulk. Good things come to those who wait, indeed. Hulk Smash!


DC Comics Superhero Collection #60: Dr. Fate

When I got into the DC line of lead figures, I said to myself to only get the Green Lanterns. But when a WIP of Dr. Fate was sneaked a long time ago, the sculpt is so beautiful that I knew I had to get him when he comes out. So I present Dr. Fate!
