Comic-book fans already know Stan Lee is a Marvel legend. Now Hasbro is making it official.
The company will pay plastic tribute to the 84 year old creator of Spider-Man, the Hulk, X-Men, Fantastic Four and other comic-book heroes by interpreting him as a 6 inch tall Marvel Legends action figure. The toy shows Lee’s likeness wearing khaki pants, a blue windbreaker and eyeglasses.
“We feel it’s long overdue that Stan Lee be immortalized as an action figure, much like the dozens of marvelous characters that he has created for years and years,” said Eric Nyman, Hasbro’s vice president of marketing. “And it couldn’t be more fitting than to create him as a Marvel Legends figure.”
The limited edition, $14.99 toy will be introduced next month in San Diego at Comic-Con International, the annual comic-book convention.
Glad to see him get recognized in an action figure. I can see a lot of comic book fans getting one.
Congrats to “The Man”.
