NEWS: X-Men 35th Anniversary Boxed Set Review


Fellow toy blogger Aries0083 has - once again - spotted another video review of an upcoming Marvel Universe release. This time it's the turn of the highly anticipated 35th Anniversary Giant-Sized X-Men #1 Pack.

In a post over at his blog, Aries links to a video review by the Philippines-based, FxFranz. You may recall Aries0083 previously spotted the Taskmaster/Deadpool and Patch/Silver Samurai reviews from the same reviewer.

Key points to note are:
  • The pack is a Toys R Us-exclusive
  • It does not include figure stands (FxFranz is using his own in the review)
  • Incredibly doesn't include a reprint of Giant Sized X-Men #1(!) 
  • Most of the figures - as expected - are simply repaints/retools. 
  • The 2:48 mark is the highlight of the review.

No word yet on when this will arrive in the US but we'll keep you posted.

    I know - I don't get it. The Gigantic Battles packs were delayed so they came out at the same time as the new wave of single figures AND the Greatest Battles packs AND the Giant-Sized X-Men pack AND the new Iron Man 2 wave, all of which are set to hit the same time as the latest GI Joe wave.
