New Podcast: Issue 38: Quinjet Down

The Avengers marketing machine is in full swing with new items from Dr. Pepper cans to Legos to Grab Zags blind packaged figures, and the hosts of Marvelicious Toys are caught in the upcoming movie’s thrall. On this issue of the Marvelicious Toys podcast, Arnie discusses his fascination with The Avengers Assemble trading cards from Upper Deck, Marjorie runs down the new Avengers Squinkies and Mighty Muggs, and even Justin breaks down and buys the Deluxe Captain America parachuting figure. All these items are reviewed, as well as the remote control Avengers Quinjet!

Also on this week’s issue, last weekend was C2E2 in Chicago and Marjorie and Arnie were there to cover the event, as well as the much-discussed Captain America: The First Avenger prop auction. They went with checkbook in hand planning to buy a prop actually used in the movie. Did they? And were there other toy bargains at the show on Marvel Universe, Marvel Legends, or older Toy Biz figures? Listen to find out!

With a C2E2 interview with Diamond about their Select figures, Minimates, and busts, an Avengers-themed Timely Review from Jerry, an Incredible Hulk book review by Arnie, and another Avengers song from Fiverr, it’s all in this jam-packed issue of the Marvelicious Toys podcast!
