Speaking of sales, I got sick of waiting for Johnny Storm to go on sale with his virtual peg-warming behind and just bit the bullet....to complete the Super Skrull!!!! Dudes, fellow fans...this is my first completed BAF ever. I know that sounds extreme, but after 14 years of cherry-picking, it's the truth. I feel like I need a drink or something, and I don't drink, lol.3 points

"HasLab presents the Marvel Legends Celestial. If they get enough backers pledging $80,000, Hasbro will produce this 30 foot tall fully-articulated action figure. It's great for display inside your local high school gymnasium or aircraft hanger. After 7,500 pre-orders, they'll unlock the first tier: Ego the Living Planet, who is roughly the size of a Chevy Silverado."3 points

I love this figure. It will look great displayed with Night Thrasher and Nova! More New Warriors please!3 points

I guess the classic, just make the gloves and boots flat without the cuffs and get rid of the black in her trousers like this version which I find to be her better look2 points

The King Thanos head was clearly done to get people who have one of the previous Thanos figures to buy this one by allowing them to have a different character instead of making them think they are double-dipping.2 points

Wow... this is horrible. She could pass as a completely new character who ate She-Hulk.2 points

So is it sadder that they're actually rehashing the Clone Saga, or that the news release made the first version sound like a good thing?2 points

I don't know if these count as one-offs. Not high-priority for production. Cable is cool. Phoenix looks cool. Beast is interesting. Didn't last long.2 points

That they include an alternate classic closed mouth or even gritted teeth Thanos head sculpt with his brother Starfox makes the most sense to me.2 points

I may be mistaken, as I do not have this issue, but from what I understand, Jericho Drumm only had this look (an amalgam of his classic and modern looks) for a few panels. This was also the inspiration for the Fan Choice custom/prototype Hasbro showed off at San Diego Comic Con in 2009, and I still want to see this figure in Legends.2 points

Baron Blood would be a must do if they ever do make the Invaders, along with the Whizzer! Invaders Boxset anyone?2 points

Marvel Legends 2021 - What We Know And What We Think We Know Is Coming So Far In The New Year Figures Jay Cochran - January 02, 2021 [ edit post ] With 2020 now in the rear-view mirror, and a whole slew of new Marvel Legends products coming in 2021, I thought now was as good as any time to do an updated "What We Know, And What We Think We Know" segment. In these segments I try to recap all the reported confirmed and unconfirmed rumors of Marvel Legends product Hasbro will be releasing in the coming months. Before we get to the recap, I do want t2 points

I think a really cool box set would be a Hydra box set with a new Red Skull, Baron Von Strucker, Hive, Gorgon, and a new Viper.2 points

Amazing, I was just gonna write a post complaining about ignorant kids with no sense of history accepting any and all changes that come down the pike, no matter how GOD-AWFUL, just because they're changes. As for being frozen in time? It may be a little beyond your scope, but there IS a reason the old red and blues are still around. Dry a little of the wet behind those ears and you'll figure that out.2 points

ITT: Grumpy old men shake their walking sticks at a perfectly fine costume that happens to hit zero nostalgia notes, but which they know is a specialized costume for a specific circumstance, the way Spidey has adopted specialized costumes for specific circumstances for most of his career. 🙂 It's gonna be fine, everyone. I really don't understand why some of you put so much energy into following characters you wish were frozen in time. They'd actually be frozen in time if you just ignored all this stuff.2 points

Well, this is....underwhelming. I don't know if Disney/Hasbro were deliberately aiming for a Game of Thrones meets Lost in Space or Star Trek lite vibe, but if they were, goal achieved. I have a natural comic bias, and I don't want to deflate the enthusiasm of those that like this, but gotta say: this is risky. This is an entire wave based on a completely untested corner of the Marvel Universe and the MCU. These are tough times for toys and tough times for films, and in the past, waves of Legends based on underperforming Marvel films (Spider-Man Far From Home, Captain Marvel & Dr Str2 points

Nah, that Jean isn't from the original Age of Apocalypse storyline, but from the later Uncanny X-Force and Age of Apocalypse titles, when X-Force ended up revisiting the Age of Apocalypse, and Jean's X-Men helped them/asked for their help.2 points

Ursa Major is made from a Sasquatch BAF, with hands from a Ultimate Green Goblin BAF, and the head from a bear toy from Jumanji. Extra fur was made with Aves Apoxie Clay and he was painted with Model Masters Acrylics. [/ur]2 points

Saw this by Bob Layton today and it reminded me I really want classic recipe Hercules. I would settle for the "Under Siege" era version that got a Marvel Universe figure, but this is my preference.2 points

@ADour I don't think Darkstar is 100% right for this wave either. She should be part of a Black Widows wave. However, then I remember that she is a recurring character in the latest Avengers series as part of the Winter Guard. But eh who care? we might finally be getting her. I am delighted for Iron Heart. I know some don't like her, but I enjoyed her character after Bendis left. Like others, I want her as her more unique Champions look instead of a female Iron Man. I'm also hoping for Guards man to be an army builder. Make me think the baf will be another type like Stiltman.2 points

We all knew they were gonna do the Stealth Armor, but Hologram armor is a surprise. Very happy we're getting Ironheart. I hope it's her more recent Champions look.2 points

Darkstar??!? YES!!!!!!!2 points

I agree! That "retro" thing they pulled a few years back was an embarrassment....just a repainted Black Ant, and not even the correct helmet. I liked the toybiz version that came with a helmet he can actually take on and off.2 points

For me, I’m a MCU collector first so a history of Marvel Films waves are welcome. there is no disputing the MCU run of films are far superior to the early outputs but they do have their place in my appreciation of film versions of my lifelong love of these comic characters. for my collection, I’d take more Fox Xmen ( again, only the main players) , those goofy but fun Alba, Evans FF films,.. Nic Cage’s Ghost Rider films, all versions of the Punisher movies, shoot, give me the 70s/80s made for TV Ferrigno Hulk, Hammond Spider-Man and Reb Brown Cap films.. all in Legends scale and ar1 point

If they made a Pizza Delivery Peter Parker with the scooter, Hasbro would make so much money solely in virtue of the memes. Since I traded my spider-fanaticism for iron fanaticism a while ago, I don't personally want new figures of the Raimi films, but I still hope Hasbro does them. I feel like a well-rounded wave of these figures would feature a line-up similar to that one Marvel Legends wave that Hasbro did in 2008. While I think final battle Sandman would be a good BAF, I think another good idea could be to combine the concept of the Homecoming Vulture BAF and the Stilt-Man BAF in1 point

I think we can all agree that the Hand ninja not being the double pack for this wave was a really baffling decision. Update: Still have yet to see this wave in stores1 point

As one who doesn't even care for the She-Hulk, I second this. Put her on that mold (I REALLY do not care for the 'roided out current comics version), give her the white/purple togs, keep the angry head but give her a playful, smiling one too.1 point

yeah I mean I know that Iron Man and Thor had a price tag of 34.99, but Cap at 39 is crazy. I mean I remember when EB first got cowboy hat Logan he was 39 which is just insanity for such a pathetic re-paint.1 point

if (and that a big if as I don't see them doing a full wave on the first of the year), then it would be BOTBG wave. They have revealed several figures from that and it would make the most sense. the Iron Man wave won't be fully revealed until about Toy Fair time in febraury when they will probably do an online show again.1 point

Yeah, if Hasbro want to include facial expressions, they should also include a neutral head1 point

They're worse because: As I've said a number of times now, they bear zero resemblance to the source material. Worse than that....they're boring. Virtually every major Marvel movie character resembles their comic book counterparts- key word is Virtually, not every single one MCU Asgardians had very ornate outfits, Kirby designed very ornate outfits in the comics. And if you had passing familiarity to the Warriors Three, you knew who they were in the film (though they blew it big time by not giving Hogun that awesome fur/horned head piece). Thor was the star of Thor, you see1 point

looks like they put him in this soon to be short lived costume just so they could release a Marvel Legend figure of it.1 point

A custom Cameron Hodge inspired by his appearance in the comic cross over X-Tinction Agenda. It’s done in ML scale and is quite large. Cameron Hodge is the former roommate of Warren Worthington III, founder of X-Factor, who was later given immortality and beheaded by his arch rival Warren now named Archangel. He went on to menace the X-Men, New Mutants and X-Factor in X-Tinction Agenda, and brainwashed Scott’s brother Alex, among others. A real bigoted arsehole and underrated X-Men villain who I desperately wanted to make one day. So I did. The base is a Bat-Raptor1 point

I can agree with your sentiments here. BK elevated his status to my all time favorite in this exact era. Sure he was a supporting player but he impressed and there was just something about the way his interactions with Namor, Hercules, Wasp etc were written and how Buscema drew him that really stood out to me. He had a more fleshed out run in the 90s that him take on more of a leadership role, wield a light saber while sporting a mullet and team jacket. This too was a great run that surprisingly didn’t end with him once again succumbing to the curse. No, this time he was sent packing to1 point
