In the words of The Avengers: EndGame… Whatever it takes.
Pop! Vinyl is releasing a Rich Rider, Nova figure tied to the Guardians of the Galaxy line of figures. While Nova, really (until very recently) has not been tied to the Guardians of the Galaxy comic (the Nova Corp however was seen in the Guardians of the Galaxy movie) – we’re finally getting one of the members of the New Warriors as a Pop Vinyl figure – and if it requires being attached to Guardians of the Galaxy to get it done – I am very all right with that!
The figure itself (seen here) looks absolutely amazing. Although tied to the Guardians of the Galaxy line, that doesn’t leave a lot of room for the other members of the New Warriors – currently – to make their debut in the Pop Vinyl figures (other than possibly Sam Alexander, as another Guardians of the Galaxy release). There’s an exclusive version of this Nova figure that comes with a variant “cover” comic – which jumps the price from the standard 10 to 12 dollars per figure – up to 80 dollars. That’s a pretty steep price to pay for a figure – but if you’re interested, it’s out there.
The figure is due to be released in August.
