Most Wanted HEROES BAF Poll!
SpiderS replied to Atlantis's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
I doubt Hasbro's Hulkbaster will be better than Marvel select one unless you mean 90's one, which could use update. -
Marvel Legends Sightings and Hauls thread
SpiderS replied to aaozz9's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
Likely it has to do with troublesome shipping from China and subsequent issues of not having storage on factories, so likely they had initial dates mapped with all possible delays taken into account. -
She's overpoweringly orange but it's still good figure and just joy to see double jointed female marvel legend and no spindly legs. I just don't know about sculpted fur it's so few and minor that you almost miss it and there's no paint detail to make it pop not sure it was worth sculpting when without fur this would have been reusable body mold parts. pics by Rafael Hernandez from fb

As boog said it's unfortunate that cape is not removable, logo could have been brighter and double jointed elbows would have been better but other than that it's very well done figure that we waited for way too long, only fact that sucks horribly is figure being walmart exclusive, why Hasbro couldn't give some movie version or variant to Walmart, does Walmart have such big knowledge about comic book figures that it requested comic book version? Or is it marketing team doing this knowing that fans will go crazy hunting for that?

If they really wanted to go again with that Classic loki they could reuse Namor speedos with Chain Mail and sculpt it on torso, now that would have been legit reason to get this figure, seeing painted on detail for gloves boots and costume lines is fine but it's not ok for something that is supposed to be three dimensional like chain mail. And speaking of Shang Chi, retro line could really use his comic book version with additional head and hand bands.

Venom Let There Be Carnage Wave?
SpiderS replied to TheMarvelLife's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
I can see Symbiote heavy wave closer to summer time. With proper Absolute Carnage BAF, movie Carnage, new comic style Venom on movie Venom body. As well as remaining Agony and Riot to complete the team and Maybe MJ as Carnage. -
Hasbro Marvel Legends Live-Stream September 2021 Coverage
SpiderS replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
New Chameleon is must, as well as Lizard with new head, while I would prefer smaller scale lizard because baf was way too oversized I can't see them doing new body, unless they can shrink baf somehow. As for Doc Ock, he got back into his white suit, at least according to covers of upcoming Spider-man comics, so this could be done with Happy Hogan body with new Torso and costume overlay. Yeah bendable tentacles are must, I would even excuse inaccurate thickness if it means we getting them bendable. -
Marvel Legends Rumor Report - X-Men Wave For 2022 With Siryn
SpiderS replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
I really hope Sabertooth we getting is 90s style or modern costume like Dawn of X that is close enough to 90s as already shown in the thread, I would really prefer if they used Omega red body since it already has pegs for his fur piece and they can also reuse hands from Animated series Retro Venom. -

Why bother with accuracy if Hobgoblin couldn’t look more different from animated series figure, if anything old Toybiz figure is much closer to animated series look than this. On its own this head isn’t bad but it’s done in realistic style, which just doesn’t work with simplistic retro style. -
Hasbro Marvel Legends Live-Stream September 2021 Coverage
SpiderS replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
Oversized figure is very likely to be Rhino since they had classic 5 inch toybiz Rhino in the background for a reason. Falcon would be in good company if they also repainted Winter Soldier with Communist red star and whited-out eyes. -
Hasbro Marvel Legends Live-Stream September 2021 Coverage
SpiderS replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
Very happy to see them reissuing Lady Loki, new Hammerhead, Shocker and Armored Spidey look amazing and much needed, but that red peg on Ben Reilly is literally all I can see on that figure, and I'm not even asking for pin less here, which would be welcome but they could easily paint red boot part under the peg and it would have looked way better without that red peg looking at you. -
Marvel Legends Rumor Report - X-Men Wave For 2022 With Siryn
SpiderS replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
Classic Havoc figure would be nice but seeing it on Bucky Cap would be boring I would rather see them use Retro Spidey buck for him, after all Havoc was very expressive in his movements in that era. -
This figure really makes you realize how outdated previous Body mold was, kinda makes me regret getting my figure, however thanks to older figure you get alternate head that works pretty good with that new body, although I really wish we had gotten pin less, we get so many pin less movie figures that have no reuse potential but the bodies that have tremendous reuse potential don’t get same treatment. I’m still hoping for that classic comics pin less Spidey, maybe they can give that figure shoulders from Shang Chi figure. Either way this figure is still must get despite me already having Sandman wave figure and the fact we don’t have pinless tech sculpt and articulation is just tooo good to pass this up.

New PlayStation Spider-Man 2 And Wolverine Games Announced
SpiderS replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
I wonder if there will be some type of homage to Wolverine Venom fight in bar from Ultimate Spider-Man, it would be good and easy way to have crossover. -
Marvel Legends Rumor Report - X-Men Wave For 2022 With Siryn
SpiderS replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
Blob, Toad and Spiral would much needed redo addition ML line truly needs, it would easily make this wave super hot. -
I am really disappointed with that movie, it seems like knock version of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" infused with worst aspects of mcu generic. There's great memorable action scenes, especially bus scene, which is easily top 5 MCU sequences, although final battle is uninspired CGI mess, humor is the typical cringe inducing marvel humor, I don't think such huge inclusion of Awkwafina adds anything to make movie any better or funnier, if anything if we saw more sad and lonely Shang Chi working dead end job while also suffering traumas of his tragic childhood we could have way more compelling character arc that would make us more sympathetic to him but instead we get cringe jokes, although seeing Trevor was kinda good surprise. But whole character plot point of Shang Chi and his father seems like unfinished draft that needed way more work, Wenwu who supposed to be brutal ancient Warlord with years of experience seems like just a modern day guy who really misses his wife, movie does very little to portray him as anything close to thousand year old warlord, and they had legendary Tony Leung and they gave him this script when they could easily write and portray character that could easily rival and best Thanos. This movie gives me same impression as Black Widow, another wasted opportunity, but at least Shang Chi might get better sequel.

I can already see this AOA Sabretooth being used as possible body for eventual wrecking crew redo, this gonna give us Piledriver and Thunderball, and most of Bulldozer, while Wrecker will need new torso or overlay. Sadly it feels like big mistake that Magneto didn’t get his full shadow head since I do believe they really wanted to compete with Mafex on some level, it’s even more disappointing since they did gave him full shadow head in 3 and 3/4 MU line.

I would rather have Red Sonja instead, since we already kinda have toybiz Conan and I always loved Red way more despite Conan having superior comic book stories. But we are getting 1/12 Red Sonja from same company that made Lady death so maybe they can also get license for Conan or Hasbro can do some Marvel Legends pulse exclusive sdcc figure.
