Pre-Order Alert: Hot Toys Exclusive Star-Lord Figure

SDCC-2014-Hot Toys- Guardians of the Galaxy 04

 

 

“My name is Peter Quill.  There’s one other name you may know me by:  Star-Lord.”

No doubt, Guardians of the Galaxy has gone from Marvel’s riskiest film to date to being a sure-fire hit–the only question now is how big of a hit?  But with crowd-pleasing trailers featuring Groot, Rocket Raccoon, Gamora, Drax, and, yes, Star-Lord anticipation is high for this film.

And, of course, what would a new Marvel movie be without Hot Toys based on it?  902219-star-lord-004

Now the third of the Guardians is up for order–and there’s an exclusive edition!

Both versions of Star-Lord come with 5 pairs of gloved palms, 2 guns, a sling pack, a cassette player, and a realistic plasma orb.  But if you hurry and get the Exclusive Edition you also get handcuffs and the silver Orb we see Quill trying to steal in the trailer!

I’ve seen this figure in person at SDCC (photo above was taken by me).  The coat has amazing detail and tailoring.  The facial likeness is spot-on.  The accessories are intricite.  This is a great figure of what appears to be an amazing new character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

So what are you waiting for?  Hurry and get your order in now, before you call Sideshow to order Star-Lord and they reply “Who???  He’s sold out.”

I AM GROOT! Pre-Order your Hot Toys Rocket Raccoon and/or Groot now!

902239-rocket-and-groot-005I AM GROOT!

 

 

Hot Toys and Sideshow Collectibles has surprised us!  Now there are a total of three Hot Toys 1/6 scale Movie Masterpiece Series figures up for pre-order today!  Earlier we announced the Toy Fairs Exclusive Iron Man in Python Armor figure, and now available for pre-order are the Guardians of the Galaxy heroes Rocket Raccoon and Groot!

Rocket Raccoon is a smaller figure, and priced accordingly.  Wearing his grey and orange space suit, he comes with 17 points of articulation, his big rifle from the film, 3 pairs of interchangeable hands, and a figure stand.  At 1/6 scale he stands 16cm (just over 6-inches) tall.

Then there is Groot, the giant tree.  As trees are not very nimble he has only 15 points of articulation…but he’s big, standing 39cm (well over 15-inches) tall!  He also has 3 interchangeable pairs of hands.

But if you’re the type of collector (or just The Collector) who has to have both you can get even more!  Sideshow’s exclusive figure 2-pack gives you both figures, plus you get 3 extra Groot accessories — 2 more pairs of hands, plus an alternate Groot face showing his angry expression.

These are up for order now, and as the Guardians gain heat they’re likely to be in high demand, so head to Sideshow and order your Rocket, Groot, or both now!

Gentle Giant Announces SDCC Exclusive Rocket Raccoon Mini-Bust!

53bafb617e627

 

Every year since obtaining the Marvel license for mini-busts in 2011 Gentle Giant has released an animal-related San Diego Comic-Con International exclusive.  First in 2011 was Squirrelpool.  In 2012 came Thor Frog.  In 2013 we were given Spider-Ham.

But in 2014, with the Guardians of the Galaxy movie opening one week after Comic-Con, one Marvel animal was the obvious choice for this year’s exclusive–Rocket Raccoon.

Unlike the previous animal releases, however, Rocket is a full-sized mini-bust standing almost 5 inches tall, and coming in at the regular $70 retail price.

This item will be available for sale (and, with the upcoming film, likely really hard to get) at San Diego Comic-Con, but if you’re in Gentle Giant’s Premiere Guild you can pre-order him now and have him shipped to your door!  Even if you’re going to the convention, given the heat on this furry guy this summer I highly suggest pre-ordering and quickly–Gentle Giant’s McQuarrie Luke Skywalker Mini-Bust has pre-sold out and I expect Rocket will do the same!

BACK UP FOR ORDER — Preorder Alert: Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel Legends Figures

 

Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel Legends

Update:  Apr 1, 2014 – 20:43 These figures are again in stock so place your order now!

Update:  Apr 1, 2014 – 18:16 Amazon has changed the status of all the figures to “Currently Unavailable” meaning their original allocation is likely sold out.  Please keep your eyes here and follow Marvelicious Toys on Facebook or on Twitter and we’ll let you know if/when these are again available!

Original text follows:

 

They are the Guardians of the Galaxy.  Or they’re “a bunch of a-holes.”  Either way, they’re making their way to a theater near you this August in the newest Marvel Cinematic Universe film!  But in June the toys for the movie are scheduled to start hitting–and the pre-orders have now begun.  Right now you can order all 6 Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel Legends figures from Amazon.com!

Already this summer Marvel movie fans and collectors have seen the crazy hunt for Legends figures.  From Hasbro’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Legends line where Carnage and Toxin go for $30 and up to Captain America: The Winter Soldier toy line with Black Widow going for over $60, it’s been difficult to find these figures in stores at all.  But now at Amazon you can get all six of these figures for the MSRP of $21.99, and free shipping of orders over $35 (or with Amazon Prime).

The figures that make up this Toy Line are:

From the Guardians of the Galaxy film:

Star-Lord
Rocket Raccoon
Gamora
Drax

From the Guardians of the Galaxy comic:

Iron Man
Nova

Plus buy all six and build Groot–the giant tree character voiced by Vin Diesel!

If the Captain America and Spider-Man Legends are any indication these will likely pre-sell out fast.  Save yourself gas and time and get your order in now at Amazon.com!
