It’s hard to believe that Marvel fans are just over a week away until the start of Phase 5 with the release ofAnt-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. ThePaul Rudd-starring trilogy will be the epic start to Kang’s (Jonathan Majors) dynasty in the MCU and, of course, with every new film comes new toys. NowHasbrohas unveiled their latest Marvel Legends line forQuantumania.
The Build-A-Figure wave is headlined by Ant-Man and the Wasp in their new updated MCU costumes. Ant-Man’s costumes feature very subtle changes, but Wasp’s color scheme has completely changed to brighter yellow and blue accents which are more reflective of her comic book counterpart. Both figures come with unmasked Rudd andEvangeline Lillyhead sculpts. Lilly inQuantumaniais rocking her comic counterpart’s short haircut. The other main figure in this wave is Kang the Conqueror ready to take the MCU by the throat. While the iconic villain has been featured throughout the film’s marketing campaign, this figure is probably the best look we received of Kang’s cinematic design yet. Like all the best MCU looks, Kang’s costume incorporates the character’s green and purple color scheme, blue futuristic helmet, and menacing cape while putting a distinct modern stamp on the villain.
Like all Marvel Legend film waves, thisQuantumanialine also comes with three comic book figures. This includes Ultron, Future Ant-Man, and Egghead. Each figure comes with a Build-A-Figure piece to assemble Cassie Lang in her purple supersuit from the upcoming film. She comes with aKathryn Newtonswappable head sculpt and the figure itself appears to be Cassie in her “giant” form.

While most of the focus ofQuantumania’s marketing has been on the fact that this is the largestAnt-Manfilm to date and the start of Marvel’s massive Phase 5, this film looks to continue this bite-sized franchise’s family centric themes.
