Classics Corner: Star Trek the Next Generation – Commander William Riker

Star Trek Into Darkness is hitting theatres on May 17, so it’s time for Classics Corner to take a look back at the first attempt at modern Star Trek figures. In the late 80s, Star Trek: the Next Generation was rising to its spot as the undisputed champ of sci-fi syndication. Galoob hopped on the growing cash cow and put out a line of figures and die-cast ships. For some reason, it didn’t pan out well. Commander William Riker was one of a handful of figures from a short lived line.

Marvel Legends Iron Man 3 - Iron Monger Build a Figure

We had to wait through two separate waves, a few months apart, to complete him.  Now, one of the most awesome Build-a-Figure's of all time is complete.  Check him out after the jump.

Marvel Legends Iron Man 3 - Ultron

Here's the final carded figure (for now?) in the Marvel Legends Iron Man 3 line, and the one that has the least to do with Iron Man, Ultron.  He's a new head on an old body.  But you will read this review anyway.  Because Ultron commands it.

Marvel Legends Iron Man 3 Mandarin Figure Surfaces, Another Wave On The Way?

Website from the future io9.com recently revealed this Marvel Legends Iron Man 3 Ben Kingsley Mandarin figure.  The accompanying story is a little murky, making the figure out to be a part of the Iron Monger Build-a-Figure series, which we all know is already complete without Mandarin, but could this be confirmation that we'll see another Iron Man 3 Legends wave in the near future?  It certainly seems that way.  And there have been rumors of another wave with a Hulkbuster BAF (retooled from Iron Monger) circulating the interwebs lately.  With SDCC in about two months, I guess we'll know soon enough.  Hit the source link above for the full story, and check out our mirrored images after the jump.

Marvel Legends Iron Man 3 - Lieutenant Colonel James Rhodes (Iron Patriot)

Next up in the second Iron Man 3 Legends wave, it's War Machine with a new paint job.  "Actually, it's Iron Patriot now."  "Wow that's waaaay cooler!"  "No it's not."
