The mood lighting at Hasbro’s ‘Twas the Night Before (New York Comic Con) party was great for getting us in a festive mood, but is hell on the smart phone I have convinced myself is better than lugging around a few pounds of camera gear. (How’d I do? Check out my own pics from the event.) But Hasbro planned ahead, sharing press pics of pretty much all the reveals from this evening’s soiree.
And of course, we’re sharing them with you. We’ve got the official pics from Marvel, Star Wars, Transformers, KRE-O, and the latest of the Angry Birds mash-ups – Angry Birds Transformers. Enjoy!
Let’s start off with Marvel. Hasbro leads off with the role playing gear – the newest innovation includes “articulation” in the Hulk hands and Iron Man gauntlets. With Hulk hands you get the “Kung Fu Grip” options, but at the expense of the sound chips that came with the earlier incarnations. It’s a tough trade-off, but I don’t know a single kid who hasn’t said HULK SMASH himself when wielding the Hulk hands. No such trade-off with the IM gauntlets – they still have the light up action that we all expect with the repulsor beams.

In the figure line-up, it looks like the success of the Guardians of the Galaxy line has had some downstream impact for the Avengers. The newest expression is a 2.5-inch vehicle-compatible line, featuring the Avengers Quinjet. Marvel Infinite Series (nee Universe) and Marvel Legends Infinite Series also got some love.
No official word on where Valkyrie fits in, but Hulk and Cap are headlining an Age of Ultron wave that includes the Build-A-Figure Thanos that got revealed on the last day of San Diego Comic-Con.

Now for some Star Wars. Those of you were wondering when the Luke Skywalker in Stormtrooper disguise was going to show up, you got your answer. I was particularly enamored with the Emperor, although I’ve already seen some negative feedback about him. What I wasn’t so thrilled about was the start of the Clone Troopers variants. I’ve got nothing against them, aside from my strong dislike of the prequels and fervent wish that no proof that they ever existed ends up on my toy shelves.
