Days of Future Past The Official X-men First Class Merchandise thread

Is there not even any fan magazines or art of books for the movie?
 
Due to the rushed production they weren't able to plan out a cohesive merchandising strat.

Expect much more to come though if the movie performs well at the BO. :up:
 
So there are no action figures out right now!?
 
Hasbro totally dropped the ball on this one...
I think they know it also, as I was in Toys R Us yesterday and saw 2 comic two packs (cyclops and Marvel Girl in their "First Class Uniforms and Logan and Sabretooth)and the Wolverine Claw with "X-Men First Class" logo on it.

Hasbro could have put something together...Thor, Cap, Transformers...isn't the whole goal of a company to increase profits? Im sure they were swamped with the three properties listed but there had to have been some designers available....
 
I know it won't happen but Hasbro should launch an exclusive toyline based on all X-men movies, that'd be awesome considering all those figures missing (Deathstrike, Pyro, Angel, etc.)

Only the Minimates were made in time.

Not Hasbro's fault. Time constraints didn't allow for a proper order from Fox.

Craig you mention a rushed production, i was not awre of that could you elaborate? is it a similar thing to Fox losing the right to Disney if they don't make a film in a certain time period?
 
No, Fox just likes to rush their tentpoles. Mostly because they don't plan ahead.
 
Didn't you know?

First class was filmed, edited, and all that good stuff in about 10 months.
 
These are cool...

you can get one for each of the characters from the movie! :hrt::hrt::hrt:
 
I want my Fassbender Magneto toy... ASAP. :o
 
I've been told by a little birdy that the first line of Hot Toys figures will consist of -


Xavier and Erik

If they are successful then Hot Toys second wave may consist of -

Beast and Emma Frost



Shame really because I would have liked a Mystique as well.
Lets hope this turns out to be true!

Who told you this? I'm interested in Erik and Emma Frost but Xavier and Beast not so much ..
 
Why wouldn't Xavier be first alongside Erik? He and Magneto are the protagonists as far as I know. :o
And I know a whole lot of fans who would be incredibly excited with the idea of a McXavier figure. Oh boy. :awesome:
 
Too bad these figures are expensive. I want 7 inches figures one !

Magneto would be first as he a more popular character.

He has a cooler costume and gives the line a kick start, his success will determine the release of further characters. However both he a Xavier will be successful because you need both. The other characters are just aesthetically pleasing.
