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. -

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. -

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This figure really makes you realize how outdated previous Body mold was, kinda makes me regret getting my figure, however thanks to older figure you get alternate head that works pretty good with that new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. -

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.

Marvel Legends The Eternals Movie Wave Officially Revealed
SpiderS replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
While it's very cool that we are getting almost all the characters from the movie in the first wave, which is first time we ever seen that in ML, it's sadly one of the least interesting characters line ups and no stimuli like comic book BAF or it separated by two waves mixed with comics characters. It could be blessing in disguise since it seems a lot of people gonna skip this wave unless movie is soo amazing it will make us want these figures. -
Probably just one off story with some time/universe or some other gimmick, real return is doubtful because bringing Mar-vell back diminishes Starlin’s story but then again with Marvel having periodical death of “insert name of character” it can be believable on some level, maybe as some mentor type figure because he has plenty of kids running around. Never personally cared for him tho I always liked Carol but in her Ms. Marvel days when she was considered in a way loser when everyone seemed to confuse her with some other hero or even when Avengers treated her horribly with that whole nightmarish “giving birth to her rapist” story. Yet having that under dog vibe really made me love her as I did Spidey, but now as Cap Marvels she’s the most popular hero in marvel universe which is good for character growth but also kinda boring. Personally to me Monica was best Cap Marvel.

It makes me sad that they didn’t use new Shriek body for Sue, that would be great although with face sculpt we getting for Sue that might be for the better. While I would prefer hair sculpt that is closer to Shrieks I remember from comics, I really dunno what they based this hair style on, yet she is still my most anticipated figure due to all the weight this body will have to take and hopefully she doesn’t disappoint.

The fact that it's reached 14k and is just 300 backers shy of reaching Nova is really shocking to me, I was more or less confident Nova wouldn't be achieved. I guess it's only matter of time before Silver Surfer is announced as next goal but will it be 17 or 18 or maybe even 20. If they want another 2 k backers they would have to extend time for sure.

Marvel Legends Excalibur Classic Captain Britain Revealed
SpiderS replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
I'm sorry Hasbro, but there's something wrong, these eyes are wayyyy too small, they don't even seem to be squinty like in Alan Davis art work they are just too small for that head, I guess one will have to repaint eyes to get better version. -
Marvel Legends The Eternals Movie Wave Officially Revealed
SpiderS replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
Only thing that makes me excited for this movie is director and movies she’s done but trailers seem pretty generic with just a hint of space odyssey vibe. But I guess better to have zero expectations and be surprised than other way around, meeting over blown expectations sadly plague marvel movies and tv shows or I guess more precisely plagues us as fans who create them.
