My Top 10 From 2025 #6

#6



With the gradual phasing out of highly articulated 3.75 Marvel Universe and GI Joe figures came the 6 inch scale takeover. While other companies have tried to reinvigorate smaller scaled action figures, none have done it, IMO, like Jakks Pacific << Jazwares honorable mention>>. As far as aesthetics combined with articulation I feel like they currently have the most to offer at the 3.75 to 5 inch scale. 


Fave Factor: This was a tough one because all of these Sega Genesis themed action figures by Jakks Pacific are pretty epic. This could have easily gone to Weredragon, Gilius, or Roo but Musashi gets the nod here. I've had a ton of ninja themed action figures through the years but this one's different. Joe Musashi doesn't even come with alot of accessories and is pretty basic but he's got good energy. Yep! Your ears don't deceive you, I said energy. Certain figures have a certain energy about them and for me Joe Musashi is one of those figures.

CT Toys - Spider-Man (Classic)

CT Toys is heavy on my radar right now. I was pleasantly surprised with Wolverine but this Spider-Man figure has made me a full fledged believer. Included are 5 sets of alternate hands, 1 with magnets (6 in all if you count the ones he comes equipped with), 1 extra set of articulated feet with magnets, 4 web streams and an alternate McFarlane style head sculpt. Oh, and a display stand.  I've said in the past how sucky I am at posing action figures. That said, MAFEX/CT figs are great for posing, even if you're not very good at it. It's "kid gloves" with these guys, though, as they are a little gummier than Legends figures.  CT Toys Wolvie and Spidey!  Here's CT Toys Spidey next to a couple of Marvel Legends Spider-Man figures. The differences are pretty pronoun...

1990 Toy Biz Marvel Superheroes Daredevil

Image
Growing up we had lots of cool superhero toys to collect. There was never a shortage of Batman, Superman or Spiderman figures in the toy aisles. Mainstream characters got all the love. Dudes like Daredevil, not so much. That all changed in the mid to late 80's (Mattel Secret Wars) and in 1990 Toy Biz would start releasing their seemingly neverending line of Marvel Superheroes that gave us action figures of everybody from  Daredevil to Deathlok.
