Is Destiny on your list because she is a key character from the heyday? She had such a weird look and is an old lady. She makes kind of a funny villain. I like the rest of your list.

I'm for this. I would prefer your alternates to the modern Frenzy and Vanisher, although their classic looks would be cool.

Claremont's X-Men Forever Mutant X -
Which Mastermind? Could he just have swappable heads or do his clothes also alternate between dumpy and debonair? I've heard poor reviews of the O5 boxset. What was wrong with them?

I'm interested in Toad. They must have had different plans for Marvel Legends when they made him. I'm sure they could improve some of those figures, like Mojo and MODOK, but they are already pretty good. Maestro is good. Blackheart is weird, and doesn't stand well, but I wonder if he could even be improved. Angel isn't bad. His shoulders are a little big, but they look alright when they are raised as if it was flying. Maybe Falcon could be improved because he is a little small. That AoA Sabertooth is pretty bad. I don't know why they made it so small and ugly.

Krakoa I think the Toy-biz Giant-Man is good. He doesn’t have to be as big as Galactus or the Celestials. Galactus’ ship could never be made.

I hear you, because I won't be able to afford the Sentinel but would like the pack-in figures. Still, I think the incentives are a good way of letting people voluntarily part with their money. I wish I did something for which people would rapidly toss hundreds of dollars my way.

Dang, that thing is cool. I like the Master Mold and Bastian add-ins. It would be nice if the latter had a head with his more clean-shaven look. Is it paradoxical to have a Master Mold and a Bastian?

Marvel Legends Sightings and Hauls thread
Chunkylover replied to aaozz9's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
I just picked up Jean, Morph, X-Man, and Wild Child. These figures are great. The Jean figure’s face looks better than the box depicts, which is good. X-Man really captures Steve Skoce’s design. The only knocks against it are his small feet, and I can understand if some don’t like the psionic effect. I was really excited about those two, and the others were sort of also-rans. But Morph is neat just because of the design. As some have pointed out it comes from an issue of Exiles. I like that they are paying homage to a certain iconic depiction. Wild Child has great articulation and good stuff joints. He can pull off some nice, dynamic running poses. The only weird thing about the new Hasbro figures is where they connect the ankle joint. Great figures. I’m very happy with them. I’m looking forward to Dark Beast. -
These are cool. It will be interesting to see how these get licensed. I'm impressed by the Beatles ones the most because the color looks really good. They all look great though, and kudos to Lego for thinking out of the box (no oblique pun intended).

Marvel Legends Best Of X-Men Wave Coming From Hasbro?!?
Chunkylover replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
True. ... Although I like the jacketed Cyclops and the bone clawed Wolverine. I don't think I will need to get an unjacketed Cyclops because of that set. He's good enough to me, unless there is a cheaper option. I would think there are others who might fall in that category. Jim Lee era stuff is always hard to find. -
Marvel Legends Best Of X-Men Wave Coming From Hasbro?!?
Chunkylover replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
No BAF is good for me, especially if these are re-releases. It means I potentially won't miss out on an interesting BAF for figures I don't want or need. If they include in the line Jim Lee Rogue, Stryfe, and Gladiator. I'll be happy. Dude, that would be a good wave. My only question with it is they recently released Wolverine and Cyclops in the three-pack. I know they need to release a Wolverine, but would it cannibalize the sale of the Love Triangle? -
Could there be two lists? Characters who have great updated costumes, and characters who have not been made into figures who would also satisfy those interested in the classic costumes? I tried Googling pictures and there are so many different versions of the same character, I have no idea who falls in which category.
-
The hands issue is probably a problem with how female characters are created, right? They tend to have abstract powers. Did Rogue have fists? She-Hulk? Do you just want a redesign, or should they have their "power effect" attached to them? Just curious, since you are so agitated by them and I think they are fine. And it looks like Maverick has two holsters, but I may be mistaken. I like that they gave him his comic accurate guns.
