It's not just the Midwest. I'm in TN and I share your curiosity. Back in November I picked up the only Nova I've seen in the wild, but I have yet to spot Quasar or Binary. In fact, walk into any Walgreens near me and it's just an action figure wasteland. Quasar I can live without, but I really want Binary and Zemo.

Marvel Legends Sightings and Hauls thread
tierneygreen replied to aaozz9's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
Tigra arrived from Dorkside this morning. Overall, she's fantastic, but that orange is really vibrant. I don't hate it, as she certainly stands out on the shelf. I'd have preferred slightly more contrast between the body fur and her hair, though. The double pinless knees are great. No warping or gumminess. She holds her poses very well. -
Marvel Comics Presents The Death Of Doctor Strange
tierneygreen replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
Huh. I'll give this a go. I found last year's Doctor Strange entry in Marvel's The End series to be a pretty decent read. I'm curious if they intend to expand on that, or if this is a different tale altogether. I'm guessing the latter. As I understand it, those The End comics are only "possible" endings for certain characters, so not necessarily in continuity, as it were. Besides, reading about how Stephen Strange ends up where that story begins doesn't sound very epic. Not to besmirch it, or anything. Like I say, it was a pleasant read. -
Do the Walgreens/Retro heads fit on the new body? I'm guessing no since there's no pic of it.

Blergh. I was hoping a 3-feet-tall Galactus would be the initial Marvel Legends HasLab project. Sigh... Hopefully whatever Sentinel they end up offering gets enough backing to make Galactus something I can still hope for...in 5 years... 😞

I'd bite on that Galactus, for sure. He really doesn't need much articulation. For me it'd be a matter of scale, sculpt detail, and paint apps. To be 1:12 scale he'd need to be approximately 29" tall, at least (based on some quick-and-dirty math). I'm pretty sure the rotocast figs you refer to were 31 inches tall, so that works. I would want some some swap-able parts – fists vs. gesturing hands, maybe interchangeable portraits (one neutral, one menacing). If not Galactus, then I'd be down for something X-Men related at 1:12 scale. A Danger Room playset would be amazing, especially if it were modular/configurable.

Ha! Glad to know someone else shares this sentiment. Nothing against Lee, or anything, but if I'm not mistaken John Byrne was the first to depict Beast in his furry, blue, Speedo-clad state. No? Frankly, I'm just glad they didn't go with cat-face Beast. Not a fan of that look. I may have already.

Top 10 Most Wanted X-Men
tierneygreen replied to Malocchio's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
I'll play, too, though it was hard to narrow this down to just 10... Nightcrawler * (classic black/red/white costume) Firestar Toad Mr. Sinister Pyro Emma Frost Banshee Avalanche Dani Moonstar Beast * * articulation needs to be off the charts I have many more I could add. Maybe we need a "Top 20" most wanted list. -
Custom Marvel Legends Marvel NOW! Magneto
tierneygreen replied to Supersmashfox64's topic in Marvelous Customs
Well done, sir! Say, do you have a pattern you could share for the cape? Or a link to a tutorial? Google searches haven't borne much fruit. I'm considering making wired capes for a few of my Legends. Thanks. -
Agreed. Wholeheartedly! I'm also down for any of the following: Nightcrawler (classic black/red/white outfit), Mystique (classic), Emma Frost (classic-ish), Angel/Archangel (any version), Firestar (OMG, please!), Professor X (any version where he's still crippled, no Astral Plane or post-SW/Starjammers), Quicksilver (preferably classic-ish, to match the Scarlet Witch from a couple years ago), Banshee. I'd also love to see more New Mutants – in almost any iteration, really. Maybe a box set of the original group in their black/yellow outfits? Should be relatively easy to pull off with only a few basic body sculpts and unique heads for each, yeah? Oh, and a status update on that purported Sentinel: Lots o' dreaming going on here, I know...
