The 2024 New York Comic Con (NYCC) proved once again that the world of collectible action figures is anything but dull. Marvel’s latest reveals had fans buzzing, especially with the introduction of the Marvel Legends Series X-Men ‘97 Sentinel. Clocking in at a staggering 22 inches and boasting an impressive 80 points of articulation, this figure isn’t just a pretty face—it’s a miniature marvel of engineering.
Priced at $174.99, the Sentinel is currently available for pre-order until November 26 on Hasbro Pulse. If that’s not a reason to whip out the credit card, what is? The buzz around the figure has reached a fever pitch, with collectors eager to add this iconic villain to their collections.
But wait—there’s more! Alongside the Sentinel, the Secret Wars Wave was also showcased, providing fans with a delightful smorgasbord of nostalgia. It seems that Hasbro is tapping into our collective yearning for the heroes and villains that shaped our childhoods. The figures from this wave promise to evoke those thrilling battles of yesteryear, even if our adult lives are decidedly less action-packed.
During NYCC, special media previews allowed attendees to get up close and personal with these figures. You could almost hear the gasps of delight as collectors and fans alike got their first glimpses of these high-articulated masterpieces. The excitement was palpable, and for good reason—the craftsmanship on display is a testament to the enduring legacy of the X-Men franchise. After all, what would a superhero universe be without its formidable foes?
Social media has been buzzing with reactions, and various YouTube channels are abuzz with content related to these reveals. Enthusiasts like ShartimusPrime and Dan Who? shared their thoughts and unboxings, drumming up excitement for the impending release. It’s a social phenomenon, really. Just think about it: a bunch of adults getting together to revel in the joy of plastic figures—a true testament to the power of nostalgia.
In a world increasingly dominated by digital experiences, the tactile thrill of action figures continues to resonate. It’s almost poetic, isn’t it? These in-hand looks at the X-Men ‘97 Sentinel and the Secret Wars Wave remind us of the joy found in simple things—like posing an action figure in an epic showdown. Who needs reality when you can craft your own epic narratives with these collectibles?
