GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY TOY SETS REVEALED

A new movie usually means new merchandising and GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY is no exception. Recently the GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY toy line was just revealed.  Online toy stores had already begun accepting pre-orders for Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel Platinum Legends Series 01. The complete set includes Guardians of the Galaxy Iron Man Armor, Nova, Star Lord, Drax, Rocket Raccoon and a build-a-figure Groot.  The set is expected to be available by 2^nd quarter of this year and costs around $159.99 (around P7500 pesos) for the complete set.

LEGO had also revealed its Guardians of the Galaxy Marvel Super Heroes set. Along with the images are product descriptions and based on the images we may probably have an idea as to what to expect in the movie. The Guardians does not appear in one set unfortunately, so if you’re planning on completing the rest of the guardians, it may cost you as you need to buy all the sets to complete them.
