After only one issue, it's clear that a more classic Ghost Rider is back with a new Hellcycle while also leaning into the horror elements of the hero that Robbie's version hasn't really encountered while saving the world with the Avengers (certainly not on this new series' level). Enter Johnny Blaze, who returns in Marvel's new Ghost Rider #1 from Benjamin Percy and Cory Smith. While Robbie's new role is interesting, it does create a void for a more grounded Ghost Rider who simply rides out into the night to punish sinners and battle the supernatural forces of darkness.

Young LA mechanic Robbie Reyes finds himself transformed into hell on four wheels as he becomes a new incarnation of Ghost Rider. As revealed in Avengers Forever by Jason Aaron, Aaron Kuder, and Carlos Magno, Robbie Reyes is extremely unique in the multiverse, his status as a Ghost Rider being an anomaly among the few variants of Robbie that exist. However, Robbie's also ascended to a brand new role in Marvel's most recent Avengers titles. The figure is a limited exclusive, and like the Shades Iron Man figure that went up for order earlier in the month, I’d expect it will sell out within a day or two.Since 2018, Robbie Reyes' Ghost Rider has been the youngest and most consistent member of the current Avengers roster, being trained by Captain America and serving as a very valuable asset to Earth's Mightiest Heroes with his Hellcharger. In fact, Marvel Studios executives have hinted at the arrival. The Hot Toys Agents of SHIELD Ghost Rider 1:6 figure is now up for order, with an expected release date in fall 2017. By Adam Barnhardt - J05:54 pm EDT 0 Its only a matter of time before Ghost Rider joins the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Hot Toys has shown off several vastly more iconic vehicles (like the Batman ’66 Batmobile) and then cancelled them in recent years, so the chance of a corresponding car being made for a figure that’s already a limited exclusive is basically zero.Īnd speaking of which–this 1/6 Ghost Rider is a “Toy Fairs Exclusive”, which means that it will only be available in the United States in limited quantities via the Sideshow Collectibles website (so no BBTS or whoever this time out). To manage expectations, for those who are holding out hope for a 1/6 flaming car to complement the Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider MMS–don’t hold your breath. While we won’t be getting a non-flaming skull Robbie Reyes head sculpt, we are getting some pretty neat accessories with this MMS figure, including both a metal chain and a flaming orange chain, as well as as fire effects pieces for Ghost Rider’s hands and even his base.
Not only do we get an impressively sculpted flaming skull head, but it actually has both an articulated jaw (which is the most fun point of articulation for any Ghost Rider toy) and also LED light-up flames.

The body of the Movie Masterpiece Series figure itself here is pretty simple (though the real leather jacket looks slick as hell), but what really stands out is the awesome head sculpt here. While Hot Toys has previously released a Nicholas Cage Ghost Rider movie figure, this version is specifically the Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider seen in Agents of SHIELD (who also happens to be the modern Ghost Rider in comic books). Now, I’m not gonna lie: I would’ve preferred series regulars Fitz-Simmons, Melinda Mae or even Daisy Johnson (Quake) to glorified guest star Ghost Rider, but when it comes to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
But finally–finally!!–Hot Toys decided that there was something in the show that collectors would definitely pay top-dollar for: Ghost Rider!
We got a trio of Funko POP Vinyls (plus Lola)… and that’s basically it. Perhaps because of the mixed reception for the series, AoS has never received a whole lot of toy love. 17 The following year, he starred as border patrol agent Lance Flores in the thriller film Transpecos, opposite Clifton Collins, Jr. Yeah, yeah–I know Netflix Daredevil and Jessica Jones are allegedly vastly superior shows, but I’ve just never felt like Agents of SHIELD received the cred that it deserved (particularly that first season, which I maintain is pretty brilliant). The series premiered in October 2015, but was cancelled following its third episode the remaining episodes were later released through Hulu. I know it’s not always a popular opinion, but I feel no shame in saying that I love me some Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
