Marvel's History & Merchandise – Why Figures Work
Marvel Comics was founded in 1939 and later launched classics such as **Spider-Man** and **Iron Man**, becoming a global mega-franchise. Their characters have become pop culture icons, and merchandising has played a large role in building this community. The first action figures were released as early as the 1960s and 70s – but it wasn't until the 2010s, with successes like the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) and collector culture, that interest exploded.
Today, there is an enormous selection of Marvel Figures in various price ranges and designs – from small POP figures to award-winning high-end statues. And those who think "only POP" miss a lot – Robotto.se offers everything from POP to Marvel Legends, dioramas, and exclusive premium pieces.
