Cancelled Marvel Legends Henchmen to see release in Select line
by Crazy, filed in Toys on Nov.06, 2006
Fans were distraught after hearing that the “Bring on the Bad Guys” wave of Marvel Legends was originally slated to each come with a henchman figure and that the sculpts had been made. When they were put on display at the past San Diego Comic Con as part of a display of things that never made it to production, fans made their voices heard. Until now, all that was said was that Marvel/Toy Biz were considering their options.
Well fans, the options have been considered and decided! Coming next spring in a two-pack via the Marvel Select line, the Brood figure and the Skrull figure will be making their debut.
“When these figures were originally cancelled, fans made their wishes quite clear. Since Toy Biz sculpts and develops our Marvel Select line, it was only natural to inquire about the availability of these particular goons,” says Michael Leavey, Marketing & Sales Coordinator for Diamond Select Toys. “So far the response has been great, and we’re definitely looking forward to similar opportunities in the future.”
