Blasts from the 90s: Hasbro Debuts Controversial Avengers "The Crossing" Vision & Scarlet Witch 2-Pack!
Good luck fitting this one onto your display shelf! Originally unveiled during the SDCC 2026 Preview Breakfast, Hasbro has officially opened up pre-orders for the Marvel Legends Series Earth's Mightiest Heroes Vision & Scarlet Witch 2-Pack.
This comic-inspired box set transports fans right back to the mid-1990s, specifically modeling the characters after their striking appearances in the infamous 1995 Marvel Comics storyline, Avengers: The Crossing. While the pairing makes absolute sense to help complete retro team lineups, the community is heavily divided on a certain giant green accessory.
Pre-orders are live right now on the Hasbro Pulse Official Store and major collector sites like BigBadToyStore for $55.99 USD, with an expected arrival window slated for October 2026.
Scarlet Witch: The Star of the Box Set
Wanda Maximoff is easily the standout figure in this release, giving comic collectors a visual look that has never been produced in the 6-inch Marvel Legends line until now.
According to breakdown reviews highlighted on The Toyark, this figure delivers a stunning adaptation of her mid-90s sleeveless armor. She features fully pinless double-jointed elbows and knees, highly dynamic diaphragm movement, and a gorgeous new face sculpt framed by voluminous hair. To display her reality-warping capabilities, the package includes an alternate set of spellcasting hands alongside three translucent pink magical hex energy effects.
Vision and the Infamous "Mega Cape"
While Scarlet Witch is receiving near-universal praise, Vision has become an instant lightning rod for internet memes and collector division.
Built on the popular, highly articulated Vulcan base body, the synthezoid looks crisp in his traditional yellow-and-green palette. However, Hasbro chose to recreate the incredibly stylized, sweeping artwork of the 90s splash pages by permanently molding a GIGANTIC, billowing green plastic cape onto his back.
As noted by toy commentators on Marvel Toy News, the massive accessory creates an incredible museum-style silhouette on a shelf, but the sheer size makes it an absolute nightmare for space-conscious collectors. Many fans have openly grumbled online that Hasbro should have tossed a standard, swappable fabric or smaller plastic cape into the accessory tray given the premium $55 price point.
