This week Marvel's galavanting galactic heroes hit home video, and we're taking a look at the second series of Hasbro's Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 Marvel Legends figures to mark the occasion.

When Marvel announced a release date for Guardians of the Galaxy 2 before the first one was even released, everyone thought Marvel was overestimating their strange space opera. And then it made a bajillion dollars and everyone on the internet felt like a fool. Now, the title for that sequel has been revealed and while it doesn’t bring any grand revelation with it, it’ll probably get you to crack a tiny smile.
Making superhero movies can be a dangerous proposition, and not just because of the crazy fans.
