Exclusive Marvel Select Spider-Man vs. Electro Figure Set Available Now At Marvelshop.com!

Y6u

In 1964, The Amazing Spider-Man #9 hit comic book racks, pitting the newly minted superhero against the man who would become one of his most legendary foes: Electro! For 50 years, the electricity-wielding supervillain has gone up against Spider-Man, by himself and as a member of the Sinister Six. And while his costume has occasionally changed – most notably in this summer’s movie The Amazing Spider-Man 2 – the original, iconic lightning-bolt suit has repeatedly returned to the comics page. Now, Diamond Select Toys has teamed up with marvelshop.com to create an exclusive box set featuring Spidey and Electro in their classic outfits!

Starting on August 25th, marvelshop.com will be the only place to order the Marvel Select Spider-Man vs. Electro Action Figure Box Set, featuring a comic-style Spider-Man and an exclusive sculpt of Electro in his classic yellow-and-green costume! Sculpted by Sam Greenwell, who has previously created figures of the Superior Spider-Man, Storm and Silver Surfer for the Marvel Select line, Electro stands approximately 7″ inches tall with 16 points of articulation. Both will come packaged in a window box with comic-book artwork on the front.

After September 8, the Marvel Select Spider-Man vs. Electro box set will be made available on disneystore.com, and will begin to make its way to Disney Store shelves in the U.S. and Canada.

Marvelshop.com carries a wide assortment of Marvel Select action figures, including the exclusive comic-based Savage Hulk figure, the exclusive Winter Soldier action figure, movie-based Unmasked Captain America and Falcon figures (from Captain America: The Winter Soldier) and an Unmasked Spider-Man figure as he appears in The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

Jessica Alba’s Sin City Select Action Figure is in Stores Now!

August 21, 2014Rob Leave a Comment

In 2004, Art Asylum made the first action figures of Jessica Alba for her TV show Dark Angel. Now, ten years later, Diamond Select Toys and Art Asylum have revisited the iconic actress for another figure, based on her role as Nancy in the Sin City movies!

With the newest installment in theaters, this all-new assortment of black-and-white figures is available now at comic shops and specialty stores, and we thought we’d show off Nancy in some new action photos! Sculpted by Jean St. Jean and possessing over 16 points of articulation, this figure can strike a wide array of poses, just like Nancy did on stage at Kadie’s Club Pecos.

Order your Nancy figure, along with Marv and Hartigan, at Diamondselecttoys.com, or your favorite online retailer, or find your local comic shop at the Comic Shop Locator,http://bit.ly/findcomicshop!
