Iron Man (Deep Space Armor)

Iron Man (Deep Space Armor)

The very first figure I bought from the Guardians of the Galaxy assortment in the Marvel Legends Infinite Series was actually not in the movie at all. It was none other than Iron Man in his Deep Space Armor.

Punisher Pop! Vinyl

Punisher Pop! Vinyl

I really kind of dig Punisher. Maybe I like to think there is a little badass in me that would stand up to the wrongs of this world no matter the cost. Maybe I like shooting things and wearing black clothes with skulls on them. Either way I couldn’t resist this little guy when I […]

Nova (Marvel Legends)

Nova (Marvel Legends)

Merumeru

Merumeru

Drax the Destroyer (Marvel Legends)
