Toy Biz

Toy Biz has several upcoming products on display at their corner of the Marvel booth, including the all-new animated X-Men: Evolution 6" (yup, you read that right) action figures. This extremely cool line, based on the upcoming animated series debuting this fall on the Kids WB network, will be hitting toy stores everywhere this November.

Three assortments are planned right now. The first series will consist of Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops, Sabretooth, Nightcrawler and Toad. The Logan figure shown here will be released in a later assortment.

Can you say "wow"? This amazing 6" Wolverine action figure, scultped by Phil Rameriz, is going to be included in a Toys R Us exclusive 2-pack featuring this comic-based Wolverine and his movie-stlyed counterpart that should start showing up in stores around the end of September.

There will also be similar 2-packs featuring Toad and Sabertooth. Each 2 pack will be released about 3 months apart.

Spider-Man fans will be in their glory when Toy Biz releases their 6" Classic Spider-Man action figures this November. These figures blow away anything Toy Biz has done before, and featuring ground-breaking attention to detail. These figures are going to feature 30 (yes, 30!) points of articulation. Classic Spider-Man will feature Spider-Man, Spider-Man (black costume>, Man-Spider, and Venom.

Each figure will come with a base that can be either place flat, or hung on the wall making these Spidey real wall-crawlers!

With the huge success of 20th Century Fox's X-Men movie, was there any doubt that Toy Biz would have more movie-related product up their sleeves?

A third assortment is coming in September featuring Professor X (in plastic wheelchair), Logan (denim jacket), Rogue (in X-uniform), a new Toad and a new Sabretooth (snow covered, in furs).

For fans who like their X-figures a little larger, Toy Biz has got you covered there as well with a series of Famous Covers 2 packs exclusive to Toys R Us (as previously reported on RTM) featuring Wolverine, Toad and Storm in their familar garb from the comic books, side by side with their movie incarnations.

Fans of Famous Covers will be happy to know that the popular format is far from dead. While nothing is specifically planned at this time there will definitely be more Famous Covers in the future.

There will also be 3 10" X-Men action figures: Cyclops, Wolverine and Magneto. Look for these in stores soon.
