Winter Soldier

New Disney Toybox Figures

I’m sorry to anyone who hasn’t yet watched Falcon and Winter Soldier because the new figures contain spoilers.

Captain America Sam Wilson looks really cool. Honestly one of the coolest looking figures to come out so far. Definitely in the Marvel line. Those wings are awesome and I think his face really hits the design of the figures. It’s also really nice to FINALLY have a figure that’s a person of color and you can actually see that. With Black Panther and Miles Morales they’re wearing their masks and there’s no way to tell that they aren’t white. At least with Captain Marvel they provided two heads. I’m pretty happy with this figure.

On the other side of things we’ve got Winter Soldier. They somehow took Sebastian Stan, a ridiculously attractive man, and made him into generic white man number one. Fine, fine it’s not supposed to be Sebastian Stan. I realize that. None of the other figures look like their people either, except for maybe Doctor Strange. Still, this figure lacks personality. Even the quirky eyebrows aren’t enough to help this face. At least the costume is cool looking. Though you can see in this pic the knife is bent so I would be hesitant to buy this online.

It’s been nice to get new Toybox figures tied to the Marvel TV shows on Disney+. It makes marketing sense. The other lines are falling behind on the quantity of figures. Hopefully, when we start getting more Star Wars tv shows we’ll start getting figures again. Even without that Disney still has a fairly deep well of characters they can pull from if they feel like it.

Captain America Motorcycle Marvel Toybox Set

Wow we’ve got another new set showing up on the Disney online store.

Captain America and Winter Soldier, both with interchangeable heads, as well as a motorcycle that has lights and makes sounds. Bucky is a new figure and I hope he becomes available on his own, but we’ll have to wait and see. He comes with a knife and gun, while Cap has a new shield. Cap looks to be the same mold, but a pretty cool paint job.

Price wise it’s $40, which I still think is too much for a set like this, but it falls in line with others that have been released. It’s nice to see another “side character” I hope we get even more. Also, I’m still holding out for some Disney princesses in the Toybox line.
