SDCC 2018: Marvel Legends Archangel & MCU Ultron Up for Order!

While Hasbro may not have brought quite as many new Marvel Legends reveals with them to this year’s San Diego Comic-Con 2018, they still had a real treasure trove to share with–including quite a few store exclusives! Whether you’re an X-Men fan, an army-builder or an MCU movie-only fan, your time is now: the Marvel Legends Archangel, AIM Troopers Two-Pack and 10th Anniversary Ultron are all up for order now!

Marvel Legends Exclusive Archangel Figure with Apocalypse ClawTo the surprise of pretty much every collector out there, looks like we are in fact not going to hear anything at SDCC 2018 about that Marvel Legends Sentinel & Days of Future Past Wolverine set that was meant as a Toys R Us exclusive. Alas.

But that’s not to say that Hasbro didn’t bring the goods to their Marvel panel as far as surprise exclusive announcements go: they brought along three new exclusives that I doubt anybody was expecting (other than those folks who happened to see that leaked Gamestop receipt from this week, anyway)!

Marvel Legends 2018 Archangel Exclusive Figure with 3 HeadsFirst up– the totally unexpected refreshed and improved versions of Marvel Legends Archangel is now up for order! The Marvel Legends Archangel figure from a few years back regularly sells for $100+ on the aftermarket and was next to impossible to find when it was freshly available at retail, so Hasbro is doing us a real solid by making one of the most-desired X-Men Legends figures available to us once again at a decent price!

This time out, Warren has shinier metallic-looking wings, THREE heads (including a Death Mask head!), and even an add-on Apocalypse claw to add to the Apocalypse Build-A-Figure! You’ve outdone yourselves with this one, Hasbro!!

Exclusive Marvel Legends AIM Soldiers PackNext, looks like our Hydra Trooper armies are going to have plenty of enemies to team up with or battle against, as there’s now a Marvel Legends AIM Troopers two-pack up for order!

Marvel Legends AIM Troopers Two-Pack PackagedThe set includes one AIM Scientist, one AIM Shock Trooper, and a ton of parts for customization and army-building. Personally I would have preferred straight packs of two AIM Scientists together, but I’m not gonna look another crack at army-building AIM Soldiers in the mouth. And if that Hydra Soldiers two-pack from last year is any indication, this is gonna be one hot-selling set!

10 Years of Marvel Studios Ultron Marvel Legends FigureRounding out the EE Exclusive Marvel Legends figures for the year, the 10 Years of Marvel Studios Ultron movie figure is also up for order!

Marvel Legends Marvel Studios Ultron Movie Figure 10th AnniversaryFor those who missed out on the Ultron Build-A-Figure because they didn’t want to buy that whole Ant-Man Marvel Legends Wave in 2015, looks like extreme patience has paid off! Ultron is now packaged all alone and with a superior paint job to the original. I bought and reviewed that Ultron BAF when it was released, but I’ll be buying him again in the “Marvel Stud10s” series because he just looks that much better now.

What do you think of this trio of exclusives, Marvel collectors? Will *YOU* be buying any or all of these releases (and for that AIM Troopers two-pack… how many?!)
