There needs to be a no-kiddin' , no messin' around, classic Ultron. There've been some versions or two that were close, but none actually got where they're supposed to be. He's 6-7' tall, and while not on the Juggernaut level of huge, certainly is more imposing than the last figure. But, I have no doubt he's on the way!
Ultron's base height is 6 foot, granted it can vary from body to body

My bet on whose next. Blue or green; either would be a-ok.
I would go with Green since he would then be able to fit in with the rest of the GSXM team

I would definitely take all of these but to me the only glaring omission is Quicksilver. I get him and I will be content.
I agree with the recent surprise/ oddball characters we have gotten lately there is nobody on this list I’d be completely shocked if they were announced.
Does anyone know why MCU Quicksilver has yet to get a Legend? Not sure if the version from Fox has somehow complicated things?
It's a good question given we did get a small quicksilver toy from Hasbro. For that matter we haven't gotten an AOU Marvel legends Wanda yet she's available in other Hasbro scales

again this is all the same as if you consider the Toybiz Classic Lines (Spidey, X-men, Fantastic Four, Hulk etc) as part of the Marvel Legends, which according to a number of polls I have run, most people do. Also the people who don't also don't think the Spider-man trilogy wave is not part of the ML line either.
I would count them, Officially they probably wouldn't since they weren't branded as Marvel Legends hence the word technically

Looking really good, though this reminds me that I still need a Xorn Helmet for my ML Xorn figure

I mean, they did make figures for Amazing Spider-man, altho i don't think they were part of the ML line. IIRC last year's Sauron BAF used parts from the Amazing Spider-man Lizard figure.
OTOH the point that we didn't get a "movie" venom figure is well-taken.. but i assume Hasbro felt that the venom wave covered it.. that monster venom in particular feels like a decent stand-in for the movie version. I can understand why hasbro hasn't made figures for the Fox movies due to having to share merchandising profits.
In short, its kind of up in the air. I know both the homecoming 2-pack and the iron spidey pack (that i've never seen in the wild) both seemed to be pretty popular, but i'm not sure about how well the mcu spideys from the molten man wave sold since that wave barely seemed to show up in stores around here
Amazing Spider-Man figures weren't technically Marvel legends figures, they were in the style but not the Brand, Amazing Spider-Man 2 Figures were part of Marvel Legends.
At the end of the day, it is really up to Hasbro on whether they really want to make figures based on future Spidey movies

The whole break-up will have no bearing on Spidey Figures since it is Disney that have the Merchandise Rights not Sony.

i think they could easily make a glider and enough accessories to make it fit in the ultimate riders line
At most it would be a deluxe figure like Archangel. Getting a standard goblin gilder and giving it enough accessories wouldn't justicy it being an ultimate rider because the vehcile isn't big enough. The only wy a Goblin would get a Ultimate Rider would be if they had a Wing Bomber

Well ideally, I would like to see him in a vintage line too. But I still don't think it's a bad idea. Obviously the glider isn't big, but if included with a better one + stand/effect that holds it off the ground? 🤷♂️ And other pack-ins? 🤷♂️ I could dig it.
Besides that, I still want to see Ghost Rider Ketch in the riders line the most.
Unless they give him a Wing Bomber like the animated series.
Agree that Dan needs a Ultimate Rider

They did send you guys all the Emmas, though, as far as I can tell.
I only saw one Emma in Dublin and I got her. But no Jubilee or Nightcrawler for the Irish

I think a classic Green Goblin would be a good candidate. Just add alternate Norman head & masked head w/ different expression maybe; some extra hands & pumpkin grenades; glider with detachable exhaust & missiles or something. Add an alternate Lizard head for the baf. I don't know.... use your imagination 🙂 . I just need some classic Goblin goodness.
The Goblin doesn't need an Ultimate Riders version his vehicle isn't big enough. He coud easily be done as a Vintage rerelease.

Rumour has it that unlike other Walgreens exclusives, Hasbro UK won't release this in Ireland / UK, so I broke down and order one off of Ebay. Have to order at least 2 more during the next couple of weeks.
So more X-characters Ireland won't be getting...

Right?? And look at the detail on his outfit. They even got the new belt buckle right. So HOW do you NOT include the wings on a FLYING CHARACTER?? No reason I can think of makes any sense. At least we know the Vulture's getting his LOL!!
Indeed and they have not problem giving Wasp her wings

Counterfeit Quicksilver
It's based off a counterfeit/Knock Off Quickislver toy I saw on holiday

How they ever made Captain America (Falcon) without his wings baffles me, but really doubt they'd remake him correctly. Misty Knight needs a do-over too...that wonky eye needs to be fixed, and we should see more of her bionic arm. Medusa needs to be re-done with anything that doesn't wind up with her hair being a big glob of useless plastic. Thundra and Valkyrie were good, but there are improved bucks out there for them. Viper/Madame Hydra also needs to be redone. And what in the world ever happened to Kang the Conqueror??
Especially when Sam was in a multi-pack, the packing could have easily accommodated his wings

This line makes a lot of sense, international markets might not be ready for baf waves, however single carded bafless figures of main movie characters with slightly cheaper price point are definite attraction for international markets.
We do get BAF waves but only one Toy Chain does them (Toymaster, and even then they seem to be stopping doing Marvel legends), the biggest Toy Store (SMYTHS) here did do them but quickly stopped after the Ultimate Green Goblin BAF. The main problem is price, Marvel legends are the most expensive 6 inch figures you can buy here in Ireland (except if you live in Dublin; which I don't; in Forbidden Planet).

Agreed. In the long run I don't see anyone benefitting from it except scalpers. I'm no economics major, but providing a product to just one vendor for a limited run cant be as lucrative as offering it to a larger audience to purchase, I would think. Someone can feel free to enlighten me....but just seems like wasted opportunity for Hasbro.
The stores ask for the exclusives, so they either have to pay Hasbro to get them or Hasbro get a bigger profit out of them.
Emma Frost is a prime example of this exclusive business not making any sense. I keep seeing people in America with Walgreens unable to get Emma and yet I live in Ireland with no Walgreens and I managed to buy it in a Comic Shop in Dublin for less than most Marvel legends figures at here.

wm IS the worst and its way past time Hasbro stopped doing "exclusive" promotions with them. Not to mention the shady crap they've played, telling you its out of stock but charging anyway. We really need to get Hasbro to knock off doing these kinds of sales with them, as they clearly aren't fit to handle such.
In an ideal there would be no exclusive figures

I would love a redo of Thunderbird from the old Deadpool 2-pack, as well as a Destroyer figure. I still have the toybiz Destroyer figure but I would love one with the Hasbro articulation.
Still surprised we haven't gotten Destroyer BAF

any reason why? Seems like he would be an easy figure to make and is a pretty heavy hitting avengers villain. Plus hasbro could just repaint him and to make Graviton. I'm not sure if either has been in the comics lmuch ately, the last i recall for Nefaria was his appearance in Bendis' Moon Knight run.
Neferia was last seen in Spider-Geddon while Graviton was last seen in Secret Empire and Agents of Shield. Both could easily be made and are powerful Avengers villains
