Unofficial BAF/Deluxe Marvel Legends 2020 Poll
watanabefan replied to leokearon's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
No Lockjaw? Of the available options it's Armor, Robert Maverick, Stegron, Mimic, Mr. Hyde and Super-Adaptoid for me. Ones not mentioned I't take as either a deluxe or BAF release are Giant-Man (with alternate Raz head), Black Goliath, Devil Dinosaur (with Moon Girl) and Living Monolith. -
The overwhelming majority of people in the mainstream audience don't read comics, so of all the potential issues an Eternals movie faces, them being obscure really isn't one of them. The entire marketing pitch for Guardians of the Galaxy was joking about how nobody knows who any of these characters are. The Marvel brand is what sells most of the movies at this point.
-
Sometimes the box sets are logical but they can also just be kind of random. The Ultimate Captain America/Warbird/Radioactive Man set comes to mind. So I wouldn't put too much thought into why they'd include Fantomex despite his lack of connection.
-
Magneto and Storm for sure. Emma Frost as well. Maybe Marauders Kitty Pryde.

Lady Ock but only if it's Olivia Octavius as Doc Ock. -
What newer costumes should Legends tackle?
watanabefan replied to Benn's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
It's funny when I see collectors complain that Hasbro supposedly does too many modern characters, when ToyBiz was churning out people nobody even remembers anymore like Senyaka and Killspree. Hell, Deadpool ended up taking off in a major way, but he'd only had a few issues under his belt when he got his first action figure too. -
Five New Avengers Themed LEGO Sets For Summer 2020
watanabefan replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
It's just renamed versions of the Hot Rod and Blue Steel Iron Man armors. -
Yeah the way it was presented made it sound like two separate things.
-
They specified it was a Build-a-Figure. Would a Build-a-Figure be a Haslab product? I am also looking forward to it. The Hot Toys figures shown off for the movie recently were gorgeous.
-
They mentioned next year we're getting the largest BAF they've ever done, and that it'll even be bigger than the ToyBiz-era BAFs. My guess right now: a Celestial since they said they confirmed they're doing an Eternals wave and that it got delayed to 2021.

What newer costumes should Legends tackle?
watanabefan replied to Benn's topic in Marvel Legends Figure Discussion
The fact that we're getting House of X/Powers of X Nimrod has me hoping they'll tackle some of those costumes. -
I've been thinking about getting the Cyclops and Wolverine ones, so may get this one too.
-
Nice. Can't wait.
-
They could get rid of the BAF parts, but it would likely lead to cutting down on the number of obscure D-listers they make since it's clear certain characters get made on the assumption a BAF part will bolster sales. So the people already complaining that Hasbro doesn't do enough deep dives would likely be SOL.
