Hasbro Drops Shocking Fall 2026 Release Date for Marvel Legends Boomerang Figure

Hold up, Marvel collectors. Hasbro just dropped a bombshell: a new Marvel Legends figure for Boomerang, with pre-orders kicking off July 23rd for a Fall 2026 release. Yes, you read that right. A two-year wait for a plastic rendition of one of Spider-Man’s more… niche adversaries.

Fred Myers, the disgraced baseball pitcher turned trick boomerang-wielding villain, isn't exactly a household name. But he's a classic Spidey foe, first appearing in 1966's Tales to Astonish #81, a creation from Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. This 6-inch figure nails his iconic blue-and-purple comic look, complete with sculpted boomerangs, swappable hands, and an alternate head. It’s a solid representation for completionists.

The figure is a Walmart exclusive, priced at $24.99. It fits Hasbro's ongoing push into Spider-Man's villain roster, coinciding with renewed interest in comic arcs like Brand New Day. But that 2026 release date? That’s a curveball even for seasoned collectors. Prepare for a long pre-order journey.
