The Classic Marvel Figurine Collection is a magazine series published by Eaglemoss Publications, from 2005 to 2013, through which consumers can collect hand painted lead figurines of the Marvel Comics characters. The figurines are produced at a 1:21 scale, so that regular figurines have a height around 9 cm. Bigger figurines are also produced: bulky characters like the Hulk are considered as Specials while giant characters like Galactus are called Mega Specials. Double Packs consisting of two figurines of related characters have also been released. The collection have been released in various countries such as Australia, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Italy, Greece, France, South Africa, Spain, Brazil, Poland and the USA. Confusingly not all areas have seen the characters released in the same order. All figurines also come with a magazine, with 21 pages in the first 100 issues and 16 in the latter 100. Most covers featured images reprinted from comics and trading cards, but towards the latter hundred original artworks began to be used. However, sometimes those covers were still in production by the time an issue had to be announced. This is why some of the issues with original covers have alternate "preview" covers.
