There are a few figure releases from 2025 that don't necessarily fit in to any of the lists I talked about before and are from toylines that don't necessitate their own ranking list. I still wanted to talk about them regardless as some of these figures would be amongst my overall top figures of the whole year, and some of the companies they hail from are ones I'll definitely be looking into more throughout 2026 and hope to see more of in general! In no particular order of ranking, here are five more absolutely fantastic figures from 2025 that I had to get mentioned! Blokees engineering improvements (Image Source) Something I jumped into this year was Blokees Galaxy line of Transformers model kits. Extremely fun little sets that make it affordable and easy to build out a G1 display fast, as well as a Transformers: One display, Shattered Glass display, and it seems like the future is only going to open up more of the Transformers franchise to this excellent series. With the r...

(Banner Image Source)   (Following Images Source) Spiderman The Animated Series has enjoyed quite the wealth of figures in Hasbro's Marvel Legends line and it seems like it has no intention of slowing down after recent releases and reveals such as the long awaited Chameleon! I finally got around to watching the show for myself and loved it (and hope to see a sequel from Disney similar to X-Men '97), so I've got my picks primed for the top 5 Marvel Legends figures I want based off of Spiderman The Animated Series! Honorable mention: Madame Web This is a character I'm surprised that Marvel Legends hasn't made in any form given her importance and iconic nature to the Spiderman mythos. While she would not be very active in terms of an action figures, she would be a splendid centerpiece to any Spiderverse display with her striking red and white costume, as well as her throne.  5. Easy Repaints: Kingpin, Punisher, Shocker This slot I'm dedicating to some of the easy r...

(Image Source) Sony's Spider-Man universe has been seeing a lot more activity in the Marvel Legends line of figures, especially with the release of No Way Home which granted us new figures for Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire, not to mention several villains who had returned from other films like Doc Ock, Sandman, and The Lizard most recently! The Into the Spiderverse franchise has also exploded with action figure representation, with figures throughout both films being released across multiple waves at this point. It has been great seeing designs and characters from these films returning to action figure form, and this list will count down my next five most wanted Sony Spider-Man film figures. 5. Spider-verse SPDR and Kingpin (Images Source) As much as we have gotten from the Spider-Verse films so far there are two big missing characters from the first film that we haven't gotten yet. The first is Peni Parker and SPDR to finish off the original team of Spider-Men which would ...

NYCC 2024 has come and gone with numerous reveals from multiple companies making for another great showing of figures still to come for 2024 and beyond in 2025. Here I will count down some of my favorite reveals from the show, starting off with an honorable mention! (Images Source) Honorable mention: GI Joe Classified There were not any particular characters revealed for the GI Joe classified line that really wowed me this time around for reveals, but what was shown off was still very cool. The Retro release of Dr. Mindbender is a release I'm really looking forward to to get the character into my collection, and then the line delving into First Responders is very cool and the Firefighter is such a great release from the real world, especially with my best friend being a firefighter! The Hunt for the Mass Device's first reveal turned out to be a new Snake Eyes with a freaking Polar Bear which looks so cool! So while none of my most wanted were revealed or teased, what was shown ...

  (Image Source) X-Men 97' blew my socks off in the best way, showing that Marvel really knows what they're doing with the characters now that they have them back from Fox. The show was such a fan continuation of the original Animated Series, and that classic theme was exhilarating to hear each time it played! Marvel Legends has not been slacking either with two whole waves of figures produced to represent the show, with figures from both waves selling like hot cakes! The Legends team have confirmed there will not be a third wave this year, but are looking to make more figures eventually, and these upcoming five are my most wanted from the series!  5. Bastion (Images Source) The main antagonist of the show could have been seen as a spoiler so I am not entirely surprised we have not gotten Bastion in the line yet. We've gotten other villains like Goblin Queen so there is no shyness when it comes to producing villains from the excellent series, and I think either form of Bast...

(Image Source) 2023 saw Hasbro celebrate their latest Pulsecon event, revealing figures from all across their brands. While some licenses had more reveals than others, and some had more reveals that were tailored for me as opposed to others, there was still plenty for me to be excited about! From Star Wars to Transformers, and to Marvel and beyond, these are my top 5 favorite Hasbro Pulsecon reveals from 2023! 5. Black Series Baylan and Shin (Image 1 Source) (Image 2 Source) Starting off the list are the two primary antagonists from the currently running Ahsoka series which I had been waiting for Black Series to put out in figure form. Releasing master and apprentice at the same time works perfectly, and they've certainly been one of my favorite parts of the newest Star Wars media! Both look great, Baylan especially, though their lightsabers aren't as orange as I would've liked, and Shin's headsculpt seems a bit off from the actor.  4. Marvel Legends Tobey and Andrew (I...
