New Mafex Leaks?

Today let's talk about these possible Mafex leaks. So far we've only been duped once but still take everything with a grain of salt because there is always the chance we've been bamboozled. With that being said, I really hope these are true.

[@deszaras3]

If most Marvel Legends were like Beast, I would never have switched to Mafex

[@thestrongcollectors]

I think with Legends there are a few times where I prefer the marvel legend over mafex because the price difference doesn’t make up for how good the figures are but with dc everything mafex does is the best.

[@aquarterkrakoan]

That Retro Beast goes for around $100 now, it's crazy. I know a ton of people had their orders cancelled at Gamestop for Beast, myself included, defiantly would like to get a Mafex version.

[@thestrongcollectors]

Holy cow! No way. I haven’t looked him up for a while and didn’t know he was going that wild.

[@jetblack4445]

My order was canceled at gamestop along with ghost rider. I was able to get one from BB. Glad I pre order there too

[@thestrongcollectors]

Yeah I ended up canceling mine because ghost rider and beast were taking way longer than all the other places. I think i ended up getting Beast in a lot or something.

[@scottbegley3175]

He is expensive. I still have a preorder of him through bbts b4 he sold out last year. Still not been canceled,so fingers crossed.

[@scottbegley3175]

I think Black Cat would be much more popular than you think she will. Most collectors like a sexy figure thrown in here and there. I mean loosecollecter is selling a ton of lady deaths and vampirella,etc. So there's a market for those types of figures that is rather large,myself included.

[@gregarcher8177]

C'mon Mafex please do Batman beyond!

[@spadeface1087]

Yesssw

[@thestrongcollectors]

That’s a perfect idea for them.

[@darthalba3785]

That would be epic

[@thunderfeet]

I was then about to type this and then saw yours. Batman Beyond in both comic and cartoon.

[@SmileJ-in3nt]

That would be cool and it's more likely for them to make them if they have the license but idk they did make a joker and batman figure from an animated show but mafex mostly focuses on their comic figures and even then it takes a while to get figures announced or given prototypes.

[@Manuortizp]

C’mon Medicom, we need a comic Wonder Woman

[@thestrongcollectors]

true. I think a lot of people would want that since McFarlane hasn't done a great one.

[@darrickwardjr.8736]

Agreed

[@sportjames23]

YES! I'd also love a comic Classic Captain Marvel/Shazam, Hal Jordan Green Lantern and Barry Allen Flash.

[@SmileJ-in3nt]

Depends on what comic run they might do in order to get wonder woman..that's why superman got figures other than him being abit more popular than her he was in batman hush and the dark knight returns so that's why mafex tends to make super man or any character from the lines they are making like batman hush,tdkr,knightfall,etc But yeah it'll take awhile to get some more DC heros like the flash,wonder woman,green lanturn,aqua man,etc

[@jamesbrooks5391]

Since Mafex refuses to do any DC characters that are not Batman or Superman related, Green Arrow would be the version from Dark Knight Returns. Which is the furthest thing from a classic Green Arrow. ☹️

[@thestrongcollectors]

I wonder what the next story they’ll pick to do will be.

[@danielcraig9666]

Iceman would have to be a deluxe to be done right. He NEEDS accessories. Hasbro has done him dirty every single time. If Mafex does it they need to go overboard, which they aren't likely to do. I would find it very likely Beast, Colossus and Iceman were coming though. WIth Beast Blue Team is done. With Colossus and Icemen they're only missing Archangel and Bishop for Gold.

[@thestrongcollectors]

Maybe beast will be next then so they can wrap that team up.

[@typicalhi-jinx9641]

I'm doubtful they will make a Danny Ketch Ghost Rider, but, I would be super excited if they did.

[@thestrongcollectors]

I feel like they could do a good ghost rider but it doesn’t seem worth it if he’s not coming with a bike.

[@mcea4]

F4 and Ghost Rider are dream releases

[@thestrongcollectors]

That's good point. I hadn't thought of them doing a F4. Maybe closer to the movie coming out.

[@stevepool915]

I would have to disagree about Black cat,I think that one will def be a hot seller considering how well the mafex catwoman did

[@thestrongcollectors]

Judging by the comments I think you might be right.

[@76highjinks]

Romita Spider-Man , Hobgoblin Mary Jane needed !.

[@thestrongcollectors]

Oh mafex goblins would be interesting

[@ceddebruxelles]

Delux All-the-goblins please!

[@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork]

I would be down for a Romita Sr Spider-Man and Green Goblin and a Romita Jr Hobgoblin.

[@trembledust6819]

Colossus has me curious. Been rocking the Diamond Select one for a good while. Good figure but would like to see an update. Nighcrawler and Archangel for sure. Gimme Gimmie. If Bobby comes out well...gimmie as well. TBH I would like to see Amazing Yamaguchi tackle some of these rumored upcoming figures especially Nightcrawler. I'd think they would kill it. We shall see. Thanks for vid!

[@thestrongcollectors]

I've only ever had one Yamaguchi and it was really cool. I feel like they hardly ever put out any heroes.

[@trembledust6819]

@@thestrongcollectors Heroes in what sense? Good guys or characters based in comics i.e. Marvel and DC? If the latter they release a somewhat decent amount. Their latest Marvel release was Agent Venom. Apparently very popular. Before that comic Thor, Moon Knight, Black Panther, Spidey (v1 and v2 and Iron Spider in Red and Gold and the Aaron Davis Black and Gold), Cap America etc. etc. They did release a few X-Men (Cable, Wolverine, Psylocke, Gambit, Deadpool v1 and v2, Magneto) but they stopped. Hopefully with X-Men 97 being popular they'll release some more. Comic Winter Soldier is due out in June. On the DC side a 1.5 Joker just recently was announced and up for pre-order. Arkham Batman is coming out I believe this year w/ a soft goods cape. Their sculpted articulated capes...eh. Supergirl was also announced. Flash and Reverse Flash were released earlier this year. Pretty good imo. Catwoman was their most recent DC release I think. Not bad at all. She thick 😁 . Before that their was Harley Quinn, Arkham Knight / Red Hood (one of my favs from them), Wonder Woman, Superman (two variants), and Deathstroke which I believe on legendary status with Amazing Yamaguchi collectors. REALLY hard to fine a genuine of him under 200 usd if that these days. I'd love for them to tackle a Daredevil, Rogue, or a Colossus. Pretty much any character that is known for dexterity I think they may do well if they make them. If that wasn't what u mean in your comment apologies for the paragraph plus reply 😁

[@thestrongcollectors]

how am i missing all these releases? The last one I heard of was moon knight.

[@trembledust6819]

@@thestrongcollectors dunno man lol. I'm a Kaiyodo fanboy so I tend to follow any of their releases whether its something im into or not.

day ??? of waiting for mafex to make batman beyond

[@thestrongcollectors]

I feel like that's a no brainer for them to do eventually too

[@constantineholmes]

Thanks for those leaks! I can't wait for Jim Lee's X-men.

[@thestrongcollectors]

Remember to take them with a grain of salt. This was heard it from a guy who heard of from another guy and pretty sure there was at least one more after that. If even half of them are true though I’ll be pumped.

[@constantineholmes]

@@thestrongcollectors Still, it’s still fun to hear!

[@thestrongcollectors]

right! even if it's a fake list it brought us all a little hope and joy.

[@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork]

I just got Phoenix, who is my first Mafex. She is pretty awesome and fits in with my Claremont Legends team very well. If Mafex were to do the others that go with her (Nightcrawler, Colossus, Wolverine, Cyclops, Banshee, and Storm), I would totally be down for them. However, why would they go for the Jim Lee designs of Nightcrawler and Colossus when their Phoenix is based on the Byrne art? That confuses me. I hope the leak is incorrect on which version they are doing. I wonder what is taking so long for them to announce a Dark Phoenix though. Outside of a new chest and maybe a new head, she's practically done. If they do a new version of Spider-Man, I would be down for him as long as he is based on Romita Sr's art. Now I would probably be down for a Mafex Flash line if they went with the classic versions of Flash's rogues.

[@thestrongcollectors]

I feel like “Jim Lee” xmen is used kind of loosely. It’s just that style of xmen but not necessarily his art. I think that and the animated looks are used interchangeably. Most folks won’t care if a belt is from a different artist or a mask is slightly different. I bet we’ll see a dark phoenix soon but when they only make like 5 marvel characters per year it might not be this year or next. They gotta let it breathe a little.

[@TokuAndAnimationNewsNetwork]

@@thestrongcollectors Is that really all they make? I'm completely new to the Mafex game. I bought Phoenix on a whim because she looks like she came right oout of the comics whereas the new Hasbro one looks like MCU Wanda cosplaying as Phoenix. If they don't want to do the Byrne/Cockrum versions of the other six, that's fine, as that saves me about $600-700, but it would be cool.

[@E2theZ]

Green Arrow is a very random choice. Mafex has been following storylines from comics. That is why I think it will be a Dark Knight Returns one armed Green Arrow.

[@thestrongcollectors]

I don't know of many 1 arm action figures so that would be kind of cool.

[@Weskersixx]

ik this is a bit off topic lol but apparently the rock that the marvel legends team teased in the last live stream has apparently been cracked… supposedly it’s the sentinels rock from the xmen arcade video game, they throw rocks exactly like the ones shown in the game and as well they stand at about 10 inches tall so if they are doing a 85 years sentinel then it possibly could be 10-13 inches.🔥🔥

[@thestrongcollectors]

Yeah I think people had guessed that right from the start in the FB groups. I really hope that’s what it ends up being. At the same time my wallet is already hurting because we’ve got so many good things on preorder.

[@Weskersixx]

@@thestrongcollectors Yea so far they have been pumping out really good figures.. but this would probably be the first army build i do but ik the price point will be high if it’s 10-13 inch figure.

[@TheRandomrandom97]

Examples of deluxe figures I think?: iron man mk50, dr strange, Batman w/base + Batman on horse

[@TheRandomrandom97]

But it’s also possible they’d classify figures like endo skeleton as deluxe I don’t know

[@thestrongcollectors]

True. They have deluxe figures that come with extras which could be the case for archangel

[@guzelsahin25]

@@thestrongcollectors Thank you, I will be waiting for your video

[@joshuamiguelcruz9703]

If the leaks are true then I'd be happy with all of them. I only collect marvel 1/12 scale figures so I have a separate display for legends, mafex, mezco, and other brands so having multiple versions of characters from different brands is good for me personally.

[@thestrongcollectors]

I like these. I saw a comment recently saying they didn’t like having the same figure from different companies and I think it can make a lot of sense. Everyone has their own way of collecting and I love the variety of each way.

[@joshuamiguelcruz9703]

@@thestrongcollectors yup it really depends on what you collect. I only collect 1/12 scale marvel figures so it makes sense for me while others collect different IPs and brands so only having the best figure representation of a character makes sense. Btw been watching your vids for a long time and love your content.

[@thestrongcollectors]

Thank you. We try to just keep getting better and better. Thank you for sticking with us.

[@adamperez752]

This is pretty much exactly what I wanted to hear and I hope it's true. Nightcrawler, Beast, and Iceman have always been my fav, and I've been disappointed that there aren't and higher end figures of them

[@thestrongcollectors]

I think legends has put out some great figures for beast and nightcrawler but I get what you mean it would be cool to have some really nice figures of them.

[@adamazri928]

I'd go for Mafex Beast IF the articulations great. The retro one is one of the best figures from Marvel Legends and it fits perfectly with the Mafex lineup. Archangel and Colossus will be expensive as hell so I think I'll just wait for the reviews first. Rogue Mafex reveal was expected but somehow felt bland because they used the same facial features from Mafex Psylocke. At least the jacket's leather.

[@thestrongcollectors]

I agree the mafex rogue didn’t knock my socks off which is ok. I don’t want to want everything. I’ll get the ones that I think look amazing and pass on the others. I’m not really trying to complete a marvel team with mafex

[@kuldipbinning1989]

Some of these look nice, but I'm not a big fan of import figures, basically they are smaller than Legends & super expensive in London. Did you get the Mythic Legions Aubis & friend. Did you like the reveal of the new Hulk Buster. 😊

[@thestrongcollectors]

Jordan and I both got the Hulkbuster and I'm super excited to get a big figure like that. And yes I just got my Egyptian gods today. Haven't opened them yet though

[@kuldipbinning1989]

@thestrongcollectors Great. I got mine on Wednesday, opened Nubius. It's pretty good posed next to my Thor, like Thor #240, although that was Horous on the cover

[@ChewieEst]

Colossus and Hulk are my two marvel favorites, but I shudder to think of the price!

[@thestrongcollectors]

Probably not more than $150 right?

[@phewkyu7079]

Cable, Cable, Cable!!!!!

[@thestrongcollectors]

Cable would be cool. The yamaguchi one looks really nice.

[@stevenmarionalmagro1103]

I’m fairly new to MAFEX. Is there a reason why they only release 2 figures per month? I’m excited for Tim Drake Robin but my wishlist for DC would be The Flash. I’m hoping Beast and Nightcrawler are true because it would be smart to hitch on the X-Men ‘97 hype train but my wishlist would be Dr. Doom.

[@thestrongcollectors]

Oh Dr doom would be cool. They do fewer figures, I assume, because they are more premium. Mezco does the same. I think it also might be do to folks not being able to afford having tons of more expensive figures coming out. They also only do about 1 per character. Some get multiple looks like Spider-Man and Wolverine but if they do nightcrawler they probably will never do another version.

[@stevenmarionalmagro1103]

@@thestrongcollectors MAFEX figures do indeed feel premium so I do not mind them taking their time if it means consistent quality. I have Black Hush Batman, Steel, Nightwing, Azrael Batman, Poison Ivy and Huntress. But I have some preorders and I’m backtracking the older released figures. Happy collecting!

[@thestrongcollectors]

I've got about the same as you except for the ladies and I just got cyborg superman.

[@CristianRodriguez-ds5kj]

I think the point of it is so that they feel more premium while also giving them more time to work on individual figures rather than releasing like an entire wave of 6 figures. Lets them pinpoint any QC issues etc

[@200yoda002]

The team at Mafex is much smaller than those at Marvel Legends or Mezco. Mafex isn't even the main source of income for Medicom

[@flamingosauce]

Mafex also did the mcu Hulkbuster which is the largest piece they’ve done with clearly all 100% new sculpting. They are definitely not afraid to make larger unique sculpted characters. Bane should be larger and I’m sure a hulk would have to be coming sooner or later. A lot of people or just shutting down the idea of mafex doing larger characters but there’s no way they don’t finish off the Jim Lee team or a hulk so I hope we see these sooner rather than later.

[@thestrongcollectors]

I do wish they would do more bigger figures. One is nice to look back on but maybe 1 per year would be fun. Add another level of anticipation to what it could be.

[@Doom.Bot.Latveria]

Ive always wanted mafex to take their shot at a hulk figure so this is great news, i hope they end up making the comic version as well

[@thestrongcollectors]

A lot of people are wanting a hulk that can do the thunder clap and I think mafex could deliver that.

[@Creukelen]

Green arrow is probably from the dark knight story line since we got the arrow. They usually give hints like that. You can fill in the blanks and figure which of these are promising or not based on what we have so far.

[@thestrongcollectors]

I really hope it's the Dark knight story because I'd be interested to see a one armed figure.

Ghost rider without a bike would suck, but Id probably rather no bike at all than for them to give us a statue bike. We probably won't see this full list until 2030 lol. Hopefully some of them skip the line. Would love a black cat.

Depending on what accessories come with Ice-Man I might be in the market for that as well. I am quite pleased with my Marvel Select however it doesn't scale well. Marvel Select also beat Mafex to the punch with Archangel as well. I would love for Mafex to make an Electra to go with the Mafex DD coming out later this year.

Mafex can get phucked, if their gonna charge premium prices for re-use figures. E.g. that "new" Rogue; 2 mid heads & A 3rd head which is their old Psyloche head w/ A new wig (SMH)! The rest of that figure looks like their old Jean w/ A new deco, some boot caps & A nice jacket. Thus, its quality is nowhere near the $100 they're asking.

[@thestrongcollectors]

yeah i'd say you really have to pick and choose when it comes to higher end stuff because sometimes the Legends version is going to be better when it costs only $25.

[@YaLaRegasteDX]

Id guess that green arrow could be a DKR Oliver cause he was pretty prominent on that story and we already have THE arrow he shoots at superman

[@thestrongcollectors]

That’s a good guess. I think folks would be more excited for a classic but also if it was dkr it would fill out that shelf.

[@YaLaRegasteDX]

@@thestrongcollectors definitely a more exciting release would be a classic look, as well but I think it would be odd to have a classic Green Arrow not attached to a certain comicbook line. But yeah, we need some classic good ol' JL members.

@@thestrongcollectors nah it takes quite a while to sell out these preorders. Only if it's a super popular character that's an anticipated rerelease will it sell out fast. It never hurts to preorder because you can cancel them at anytime and with mafex if it's a year long wait that's a new figure for sure but if it goes up for po and is coming really soon it's probably a reissue.

[@raymondhahn739]

True. The older miles goes pretty high on the secondary I think.

[@eduardolamboy4776]

Green Arrow needs to be classic version. A George Perez Satellite era JLA needs to be made! A classic Avengers Perez roster is a must as well. Classic comic based Hulk would be my preference over MCU Hulk. The Thing is 6ft tall, he's not big. Where's Doomsday? Make all the Superman returns characters but not the m as in villain in the story??

[@thestrongcollectors]

Oh! You’re right! Why has doomsday slipped my mind with all these Superman figures. I’d love a classic looking doomsday and would happily shell out the extra money for him.

[@flaminguo]

Knowing Mafex this leaks if accurate might be 3 to 4 years away before we ever see the pre-order and even longer to see on hand…. By then ML might release a revise version or two of each, knowing my stupid ass I might still get the x-men, but that needs so much discipline and patience from me

[@thestrongcollectors]

Yeah I would think 5 years would be a good guess to have these in hands. I do like how with legends we can get a leaked list of 100 characters and we’ll have them all in hand by the end of the year. These 10 ish figures will be a looong wait.

[@l.p.5703]

The Jim Lee x-men are the only made. I care about, especially Iceman. There is no decent iceman figure on the market. Especially if he gets his 90’s (non ice) outfit. But my concern is, if this rogue figure isn’t due out until April 2025…when the hell will we get colossus?

[@thestrongcollectors]

I would be expecting 5 years to see this list make it to your hand. Maybe even to preorder and not in hand. They take a long time to put out this many figures.

[@shanehai2699]

Unfortunately, I just don't have the money to pay the crazy Mafex rates these days, or I'd be interested in quite a few of the Marvel Jim Lee X-Men and a small handful of the DC figures... That said, I am VERY tempted to try and get that Archangel, and maybe Nightcrawler... I don't really get many of the McFarlane DC figures, though I really want that Kilowog figure for my GL Corps, because I can't justify starting ALL OVER again with a 7" scale line after acquiring most of what I am interested in with the previous 6" DCU series'... Unfortunately, since Toddy Mac has chosen to screw us with his 7" line, it's proving more difficult to find a decently articulated 6" Superman figure that looks worth a crap... I have one for my JLA display, but it's not the costume style that I need. I'm looking for just a good, solid, basic Superman, like even a "Death of" black version Superman would be great, because I just need the "S" shield to be sculpted as a part of the figure design. My plan is to paint the entire figure gold and create a custom Superman, Herald of Galactus, to go with my other Heralds and Haslab Galactus, and I know Hasbro will never be able to make that figure, and most people don't even realize that happened in the giant over-sized comic book crossover Superman and Fantastic Four, where Cyborg Superman is attempting to convince Galactus to make him his Herald, but instead, he chooses Superman for the job, and imbues him with the Power Cosmic, turning him to gold, similar to the Silver Surfer, but with no cape or surfboard. I thought it would be pretty cool to have a rarely known Herald as part of my display, if I could pull off a decent custom version. (Obviously, I'm not interested in paying crazy mafex money for a figure that I'm going to de-cape and paint, but it would be a nice looking figure to display, lol... and actually, with your mention of the electric Superman figures, I wouldn't mind using THAT version, especially with the hair, headgear, and electric bolts, just to spruce him up and make him even more dynamic to look at in a display, instead of ol' vanilla supes...!)

[@thestrongcollectors]

Yeah I can’t go all in on mafex but I do like getting a few per year as the main premium figures I collect. I don’t do mezcos or any other high end stuff. I would like to eventually get a few mondo but that’ll be a while.

Shadowcat X-Men/Excalibur that’s not incredibly tiny like marvel legends with her big curly hair, a maskless head sculpt and articulates in a way that befits her character style
