Just going by the blurb, I doubt we will see anything new, probably things like Pre-Order info

Except I do follow him.

[Lord_Scareglow]

As I keep saying, show us Retro Carded Iron Man and Ghost Rider waves, I know they got em.

[raziel0203]

Hmmmm... how ambiguous, "exciting news about the marvel legends product line." I wonder if this means new reveals or something else.  Any ideas? Or am I missing something?

[ransomz]

I am totally jazzed with my new Squadron Supreme set. Wonder Woman's tiara was a little askew but I was able to move it. Perfect. 

What I really want now are more/all of the Starjammers. 

[since83]

What would constitute "exciting news about the LINE?" I dont go on Twitter at all, so I dont know if this is even a direct quote here, but to me that would mean more than some figure announcements or release dates.

Maybe all releases will be online from now on. That'd be good and bad as we've discussed before.

I hope for some accessory packs with weapons, new power effects, sunglasses (to replace the ones I keep breaking, lol), ect. But I doubt that would  be an announcement level thing.

Maybe they'll be doing an animal line! It seems like they've been doing more and more lately. I see a lot of collectors, including myself, asking for Lockjaw, various steeds, Redwing (who shoulda come with that new FalCap), ect. Actually, as much as I doubt my ability to call anything correctly, this would be a super cool announcement.

Idk, more soft goods like cloth capes and coats?

 

[Emnems80]

Watch the news will be the look of the new Hasbro packaging 😂

[Legender]

Oh, come on! Give us an OVERDUE Mandarin!!! Excited for Wiplash and Count Nefaria!

[toynewman]

[tarot]

Awesome wave and long over dues. Whiplash and Nefaria are the Highlight. She-hulk is awesome and and delighted they remade the Neo Classic and Tin Man armor. The only "dub" in this wave is the Gold iron man BUT we all new that was coming and at least they went the extra mile with the skirt.

[MeGrimlock78]

This may be an unpopular.opinion, but that Whiplash just looks goofy.  I think I prefer the MCU version, which is rare for me to say.

[JayC]

Today Hasbro is holding a panel at WonderCon and for Marvel Legends they revealed Iron Man Retro Cardback Wave Iron Man Model 20, Whiplash, Iron Man Model 9, Count Nefaria, Iron Man Mark I (Gold) and She-Hulk. These will be up for pre-order on Tuesday April 2, at 1pm ET at places like BBTS and EE.

Thanks to MCUCollector for live-streaming the panel for us.

[tarot]

I just looked it up. With these three Iron Men we only have The thor buster armor and the Hulkbuster armor to be remade and they will have remade every Prime universe Iron man armor from the Toybiz days. Rumor has it that Hulkbuster is coming in the year so that just leaves Thorbuster.

[JayC]

There will be a Hasbro meet and greet event at 8pm ET where we will get better images for most of this stuff.

I've always liked it just cause I liked the stories he appeared in back in the 80s. But yeah the design in of itself I get what your saying.

[GnarlyCharlie85]

Whiplash finally! Although I can't see him too good from the pics available right now he is a glaring omission from the iron man rouges gallery. It is crazy we are just now getting him,but I'm over the moon about getting him. Now with these iron man retro cards we can get more great classic comic figures. Keep em coming please.

[AnotherPunkChef]

Well, not the costume I wanted but I'm psyched to be getting a smiling She Hulk!

[Reno]

I love the Nefaria and Whiplash!! They both look fantastic! I'll likely buy the whole wave, but those are the two that are must haves.

[JayC]

[Air-Walker]

Oh niiiiiice! Blacklash, awesome. 80s She-Hulk, even more awesome! Nefaria is most MOST welcome too. Iron Man model 9...ugh, epic face-slapping what-the-heck were they thinking let down. The boots are absurdly, comicly too huge. My guess is that they made them like that so they could save money making the space armor. Very disappointed with that. Still really happy about She-Hulk, though an action face would have been a nice inclusion.

[JayC]

I'll get 80's She-Hulk, Whiplash, Nefaria and Iron Man Model 9. Im getting Iron Man model 9 out of nostalgia cause it was my very first Marvel Toy Biz figure I got back in the day from the 5" line.

[GrtWhiteCustoms]

Holy Moly I love this wave!! Neferia FINALLY!! Whiplash is a total throw back to the 90's!! My kids played with this line all the time and we all watched the cartoons. I hope this line continues and they rerelease Dreadknight.

[Thwippersnapper]

Oh shoot yea I'll take em all! (except Model 20). Very excited for She-Hulk; she looks terrific!

Also Blacklash's card says Whiplash ha
