It’s been another year, which means it’s been another year in which our wallets have been drained of great toys and collectibles released in 2024. Here are just a few picks, from Action figures To model groups for very, very Big spaceshipswhich occupied a prominent place in our collections this year.
Hot games Dark Knight The Joker (Bat Suit Disguise)
The combination of Hot Toys and Heath Ledger’s Joker sounds perfect. An instantly recognizable, legendary character, combined with the detail and care of a fine collectibles company. But in 2024, that went even further with the release of Batsuit Disguise, which was a limited edition reimagining of the character that wasn’t from a movie. It was just inspired by the fandom. Almost DC Studios what if…?the Joker stuns in his purple and green bat suit with all the right trick weapons. It is exciting to look at and allows us to imagine what could have happened if Ledger had not tragically passed away.
Lego Lord of the Rings Parade d’or
It may not be as glamorous as Lego’s grand return to Middle-earth with the Rivendell set, but Lego’s journey to Mordor is still a mystery. Worth following. Sure, the Dark Tower’s 32-inch scale is large, but the Lego Barad-Dur excels in ways a little closer to the Hobbit’s size. Filled with lots of adorable minifigures and some great little details to break up all that evil Black Hulk, it’s a worthy addition to any Lord of the Rings The group…with at least room for it.
Sh Figuarts Through the spider verse Evil spider
Bandai has brought out a lot of Spider-Men over the years, and Spider verse The movies gave her the opportunity to produce more spindly spiders. So many say that the cream of the crop (so far at least) is not Peter or Miles, but Hubie Brown. Based on its design in DefendThis Figuarts Spider-Punk toy combines cool details and killer accessories with some truly stunning paintwork. It captures Hobie’s tall frame from the movie perfectly, and it’s clear that Bandai had a lot of fun going to town wearing Hobie’s messy but intricately detailed jacket and suit.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Keeper Crystal Collection
when Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Opened at Disneyland, the Kyber Crystals were one of the coolest draws for collectors. These little collectibles offered beauty and mystery in equal parts. And when a second series was released recently, Disney decided to commemorate the original magic with a limited-edition collection of every Kyber Crystal from the beginning – including the ultra-rare black crystal, the only time it was ever sold on its own. The box also comes with Jedi and Sith holocrons, which allow you to open crystals, and a stylish display case. Sure, it’s pretty bulky, but it makes you feel like a Jedi (or Sith) relic hunter, proudly displaying your wares for all to see.
Lego Legend of Zelda Awesome 2 in 1 Deco Tree
It’s been a long time coming – people have been Begging LEGO to work with Nintendo on Legend of Zelda cooperation—But was it worth the wait? definitely. Lego laughed as everyone expected her to dance along to this adorable tribute to both of them Breath of the wild and Ocarina of Timeusing their shared connections in the franchise’s twisted timeline to anchor a collection that celebrates two of the most beloved entries in the series through one setting. It’s a little also There’s a lot of pain when switching easily between any version of the Great Deku Tree, but there’s still a lot of great details and building techniques regardless – and of course some amazing minifigures.
Hasbro Marvel Legends X-Men ’97
The Marvel Legends series has gone from strength to strength this year, but it has been a huge hit X-Men ’97 Subline. All of these characters have come out so well, translating the anime aesthetic into action figure form, that it’s almost impossible to pick just one as the best of the bunch – really, it makes us eager to see more of the X-Men presented in this style . But if we king To pick just one, Hasbro’s first Madeline Pryor figure is a highlight.
Alien: Romulus Face mask
Alien: Romulus forward Alien The movie came pre-loaded with merchandise, so we got all kinds of action figures, cool books, etc. But our favorite was the piece that Disney was so high on, they gave one to everyone at the party Alien A panel in Hall H at Comic-Con this year: a face mask. Which is perfect, isn’t it? Facehuggers literally jump on someone’s face and cradle them, like a mask, so turning a mask into a mask is an accurate representation of the movie on screen, and a fun costume item. Whoever came up with the idea deserves a raise.
Hasbro Haslbp star wars Vintage set ghost
A very recent entry on this list, but the greatest ever made by Hasbro star wars The Haslab vehicle is a great tribute to one of the best parts of the series in this game Rebels. It’s not perfect by any means, whether from the compromises it had to make due to size (while still being larger and wider than the entire trunk) or to the puzzling decision to include all but Sabine and Chopper are at the asking price for a massive $500 crowd investment for the group. But it’s an absolute joy to play with, and is packed with so many interior and exterior details that it’s worth hours of tinkering with.
Bandai 30 minutes imagination Liberal Knight/Holy Knight
Bandai started the fantastic show of its popularity 30 minute task This year’s mecha line comes with a mix of clean, sci-fi-influenced robot design and classic knightly fantasy models. Issued to both factions in 30 minutes imaginationThe Knight stories and the optional upgrade set to Holy Knight are beautifully designed model kits, bringing… 30 minutesThe usual clear standard design ideology of a cool hybrid aesthetic between fandom and sci-fi. We can’t wait to continue supporting our plastic party with more chapters!
Hasbro Transformers one Ultimate Energon Optimus Prime
Release animation transformers This year’s movie, of course, came with a lot of cool toys and merchandise. Transformers of all shapes, sizes, and even eras. And while we admit we haven’t played them all, the one we keep coming back to is Ultimate Energon Optimus Prime. At approximately 10 inches, it is the perfect size that you can either play with or display – a great balance for both adult collectors and their children. You’ve got great detail. It transforms (of course). It makes you feel like you are watching the amazing movie again.
Hasbro star wars Black May series
It’s been a great year for the Black Series line, but its best-kept secret power came from an unexpected source: one of the figures released for assistantNot even one of countless Jedi. Instead, May slipped from the shadows into our hearts with a really cool little toy. It’s beyond the usual weight of accessories in the Black Series, and it looks like Hasbro finally nailed the cloth elements to her hooded cloak better than most Jedi robes. There are just so many little details that come together to make a great action figure
Mezco One: 12 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
there So a lot TMNT The figure goes there, and it looks like we have enough this year to plug the sewers in the boys’ house, and then we can thank the 40th anniversary of the franchise. But in a sea of half-shells, one group easily prevailed in Mezco’s One:12 match over the Turtle Brothers. A fantastically detailed art style inspired by classic comics and equally beloved retro games, great articulation, and tons of cool accessories for each team member, this set was the best celebration of the TMNT in a year full of similar attempts. In celebrations.
Lego star wars Luke’s lightsaber
There were a lot of cool Lego games star wars This year — and honestly every year — but we can’t stop thinking about the free gift. Fans who ordered Jabba’s Sail Barge got a Lego Lightsaber set that made us wonder why doesn’t Lego do that all the time? 1:1 props from star wars? In lego? They are so cool. It’s an idea so good and simple that we can’t believe it hasn’t been done before. Also, the set is designed to perfection, and even comes with its own Kyber Crystal.
