I really wish they'd finished the suits from the first Sony Spider-Man game.I'm not saying don't capitalize on the PS5 game. I just wish Howard Chan hadn't seem to have forgotten about the first game. Noir, Bombastic Bagman, 2099 White, and Spirit Spider feel like pretty big gaps in the collection to me.

Best of Marvel legends 24 polls and results

Hot Toys isn't a "third party," and Hasbro doesn't have "the master license." That implies that Hasbro allows Hot Toys to make Marvel figures and that Hot Toys has to work with both Marvel and Hasbro. That's not the case. Hot Toys has a separate license with Marvel for 1/6 scale figures, with exclusive distribution in the US through a partnership with Sideshow Collectibles. Technically, I believe, the license for 1/6 figures in North America belongs to Sideshow, which is why they release their own 1/6 scale Marvel figure now and then.

New Rumored Leaked Marvel Legends Figure Listings
Satam replied to JayC's topic in Marvelous News's General Area
Feral should be able to reuse a lot of parts from Wolfsbane. Classic Hepizabah could also reuse many of those parts, and modern Hepzibah could reuse a number of parts from Tigra. Pixie would at least need a new upper torso, but most other parts could be reuse, as well. Armor could probably be done as a BAF with Hisako being a regular figure in a wave and her armor being the BAF pieces (there may be some challenges to putting an articulated action figure inside another articulated action figure, but I imagine there's still a few people left at Hasbro who could figure it out). As for the fellas, you mentioned, there likely is a lot less reuse potential, so they're more remote than the ladies. Anyway, I'm looking forward to Marrow, too. -
Oh, Pícara is Rogue. We have no indications that the re-release has been cancelled, so it's possible that the figure could be part of Target's next Geek Out event in the Spring. We can't be sure right now. That figure does go for insane money on the secondary market, but the best advice I think anyone here can give you is to be patient and stay tuned for news as we get it.

Weird how much that Red Hulk still resembles Ruffalo, but based on the teaser shown at San Diego Comic Con, the folks doing the Red Hulk effects made sure he resembled Harrison Ford following his transformation. Seems kinda lazy on Hasbro's part, and I wouldn't be surprised if a more accurate movie version is released later.

You're close *puts on wicked thick glasses and one of those sport coats with elbow patches for a brief nerdy history lesson* Kenner was purchased by Tonka in 1987, and then became a division of Tonka. In 1991, Hasbro purchased Tonka, and both Tonka and Kenner became divisions of Hasbro, with Kenner continuing to operate from their offices in Cincinnatti, OH, where the company was founded. In 2000, Hasbro closed Kenner's offices and absorbed their product lines.

I let y'all go off topic for a while, because it was Daimon Hellstrom adjacent...more or less. That and I was out of town at the time. But this isn't a Ramen Racer thread, an "Engine of Vengeance" thread, a Ghost Rider thread, or a Fin Fang Foom thread. It's time to either bring the conversation back on topic (the Hellstrom figure) or take it to PM or something.

I'm generally pretty happy to be getting an updated Doctor Voodoo. I like the character but had to throw the Dormammu wave figure in a box after a couple months, because I could never keep that damn thing standing for more than 48 hours, and I could never get the cape they literally threw on it to ever sit right. I'm glad the cape on this one plugs into the back. I'm not at all happy about them eliminating the open spell-casting hands, but maybe I can swap the one from the older figure or something.
