Once 7000 backers are reached, an alternate, interchangeable Master Mold head will be included! I’m not sure I would ever opt for that head myself, but I do think it’s pretty groovy it’s going to exist at all! What the other add-ons could be, I really have no clue-but I suspect Hasbro has grand things in store. But at 7000, 8000, 900 backers, Hasbro will be announcing additional add-ons that will come with the ML Sentinel at no additional cost. And for those army-building, an alternate Sentinel Prime head will also be included for Bastion! (Now that is going to be an expensive army-builder!)īut wait-there’s more…! Or rather, there will be! Now that the Sentinel is at 6000 units sold, it’s already 100% confirmed as being produced. I love me some 90s X-Men, so getting the primary antagonist of “Operation: Zero Tolerance” puts a big ol’ smile on my face. Last, but perhaps of most interest to many collectors, is the exclusive 6” Marvel Legends Bastion figure included with each Sentinel. This truly blows the more recent “blocky” Sentinels with their limited articulation out of the water entirely. The tentacle will have an internal bendable wire, so it’ll be highly poseable and fun to assault your X-Men Legends figures with.Īnd perhaps most shocking of all, the Sentinel will have 72 (SEVENTY-TWO!) points of articulation! This is a completely unexpected number for such a large and bulky figure, and one that totally caught me off guard.

Psyched that Hasbro also announced a full wave of HoX/PoX X-Men Legends figures for 2021!Įach Sentinel will come with one 18” (yes, 18”!) long tentacle accessory that can be attached to either hand. The design for this Sentinel is based on Jonathan Hickman’s House of X/Powers of X comic books, which are, quite frankly, the comic book love of my life for the past year. I didn’t think I’d care about an electronic function like that, but as demonstrated during Hasbro’s livestream, the LEDs are actually really cool and scary when powered up.

The head and chest of the HasLab Sentinels will have LED light-up features (requiring two AAA batteries that aren’t included). That’s not gonna be an issue here-at over 2 feet tall, these actually feel like the GIANT robots that they should be. While previous Sentinels have been large, they haven’t really felt properly scaled (or at least as properly scaled as you can get with robots whose size is constantly changing depending upon the artist). Standing at a massive 26.3” tall, this new Hasbro Marvel Legends Sentinel will tower over every other action figure version of the mutant-hunting robots to come before it.

Yesterday, it finally happened-and while the Sentinel reveal wasn’t a “surprise”, it certainly is BIG!

We all knew exactly what Hasbro was planning-but yesterday, we actually got our very first look at it! The 2020 Marvel Legends Sentinel HasLab project is not only now live-in just one day, the project has been fully funded! Is this the be-all, end-all definitive Sentinel that X-Men fans have been begging for for years…?Įver since Hasbro introduced the concept of HasLab crowdfunding a couple years back, fans have considered it more of a “when” rather than an “it” when Marvel Legends would get it’s turn in the crowdfunding spotlight.Īnd after announcing that a Marvel Legends HasLab was coming back at the 2020 Toy Fair and giving us some blatant giveaway hints, it’s just been a waiting game to see the big “surprise” Hasbro had in store for us. And let’s not play stupid here-they haven’t been coy about it at all: a new HasLab Marvel Legends Sentinel figure.

ORIGINAL : Ever since New York Toy Fair 2020 back in February, Hasbro has been teasing something BIG was coming.
